Hey friends! Just a note to let you know that the Hop(e) for Haiti card and gift auctions are now LIVE. I have listed all the links to each individual auction in the top right hand side of my blog’s side bar for your convenience. Simply click on the links to view and bid on these treasures. Let’s see what we can raise for the people of Haiti! Thank you & Inky Smiles!
I feel so blessed to get to be a part of this fantastic service opportunity! I am sure many of you have shed tears for those who have been affected by last month’s tragedy in Haiti. Thank you to Heather for putting this together and letting us each play some small role in this! It’s my hope that we can help to make a difference and bless some lives in Haiti. Welcome to Skipping Stones Design’s Blog Hop(e) for Haiti.!…
I know I said I would show you more Bling a long time ago. I’m just now getting around to it. I’ve been working on things around my house (hello life), SSD projects, my CU roomie gifts and packaging up the charms I showed you previously and getting things ready to go to Creative University in a couple of weeks. OH I also made a fun PAPER scrapbook layout that I can’t show you until after CU as well. I’m…
{Brent has been unsubscribed from my blog (for now) and has sworn not to look at the blog until Sunday.. hahaha! } So I wanted something creative yet simple to do for my sweetheart for Valentine’s day this year. I am not a big expensive gift person on Valentine’s day. I think Valentine’s day is a good day to show the people you love, whether you’re single or married, that you DO love them. You can write a nice letter…
Hey friends! I was working on some Valentine’s projects yesterday in hopes of getting everything ready to give this weekend. I have a fun little something for my sweetheart all figured out and nearly ready to go, but I can’t show it because he reads my blog. (I should unsubscribe him so he can’t see ahead of time… hehehe!) I needed some “quickie” type cards and didn’t want to have to think about or dig through embellishments and whatnot to…
A little bit of special digi art for a cause I am excited for: On Tuesday, February 16th, 2010 we will launch a very special blog hop… During Hop(e) for Haiti we can all work together to help raise money. The money will be donated to the Red Cross to help those still struggling to get basic needs met after surviving the devastating January earthquake in Haiti. On February 16th we will start our blog hop at Skipping Stones Design…
Happy Tuesday ya’ll! Today we’re playing with another fun sketch from Belinda Chang Langer of Bleu Bella Paperie. Here’s today’s sketch: MMMM… nice and simple… gives me lots of room to play. And very few rules to break, if any… well, I did take the liberty to leave off one of those black dots… I am so totally head over heels in luuuuuurve with Skipping Stones Design’s Dandelion Dreams stamp set that I had to use it again today. Here’s the…
Can you believe we’re 10 weeks into Skipping Stones Sketches? Wow, time is FLYING by and I’ve been having a blast with all these fantastic stamps and sketches to stretch my imagination. So fun! Our sketches this month come from Belinda Chang Langer of Bleu Bella Paperie. The last batch of goodies from Heather included this AWESOME set of stamps, Dandelion Wishes. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the silhouette images, especially the floral stems. Working for a landscaper for the past…
I received this darling card from Kay Demonbren last week. What a bright it was in my week! Kay won some blog candy from me during the Skipping Stones Design blog hop and sent this sweet card to say thanks! The balloon and trees are stamped on patterned paper and pieced onto the card! I THINK this is a Gina K set… I love the card, thank you Kay! ~Inky Smiles!
(Scary photo showing us on one of our early dates. Excuse my terrible hair and dorky glasses, Brent’s cute as ever, but that’s just Brent ! This had to be somewhere in March-ish… I think we were engaged at that point… well, we were at least at the “holding hands point”… hahaha!) Today is an AWESOME day in our little family! Today, January 30, 2010, marks the 11th anniversary of the day I met Brent and coincidentally our first date. …
