Embellish Felt Color Challenge

this is for the Embellish mag Felt Color Challenge that ends today. i was really having a hard time with these colors. i have always had the opinion that red and pink do not look that great together. but i have discovered that it depends on the shades of each color.
i used my new MFT Polka Dot Greetings Die & Stamp set duo for the sentiment and the felt. the background is the PTI Polka Dot Basics II. the felt is from PTI also.

Gift Set

This is my latest Thank You cards gift set. I have been in love with My Mind's Eye paper for a long time, and just loved this color combo. The inks I used to match it is Memento Pear Tart, & PTI Berry Sorbet. I also used A Muse Marigold stamp for the edges of the die cut from PTI (Fillable Frames 5).
I don't know what is up with my photo editing program, I cannot seem to get the colors right. Anyway, this card uses the Fillable Frames 1 die, and 4 stamp set. The button is also PTI, and the so is the twine.

New Card Organizer Class


WOW! it has been so long since i have made a blog post, i have forgotten which order to upload the pics. Sorry about that!
Anyway, my next class at Scrapbook Haven in Owensboro is coming up fast. Friday, October 15th, 2010(2 classes 10am & 6pm) is almost here, and i forgot to post a pic of what we will be doing.
This is the book for all the cards you need to send out on certain dates.
We are using a new line of paper from Echo Park, called A Walk in the Park. And it comes with a sticker sheet so that you can design your own cover for your book. This is just what I chose, (believe me! i kept trying to get carried away with all those flowers!) and in the end, went sweet and simple. But those duckies were calling out to me, maybe someone in class will choose those.
It even has blue rings that match exactly the cover pages!
And calendars for each month, so you can remember those important dates!
We also put one extra pocket in the back for misc cards, like Get Well, & Sympathy, because those days pop up with no warning. How great would it be to have those cards on hand for emergencies?!!


Hope to see you in class!!

Prize Package

just thought i would brag on how generous the Moxie Fab blog is with their prize packages. i won a package from Little Yellow Bicycle that includes scrapbooking paper; clear cut shapes & frames; chipboard, cardstock & epoxy stickers; fabric popups; journal tablet; 12 mon cards; and a set of baby announcements (which i gave to my husband's cousin's wife who has a baby about 3 weeks old.) i need to pass on a few of the other things, as it has to do with baby scrapbooking.
this is the first card that i made with their paper. the "little one" is fabric covered, and so is the red polka dot button. too cute!
