My Creative Escape

{Scheduled Post} Hey friends! Remember when I did the Scrap My Scraps challenge last year?  We had some fabulous fun with that one and I wanted to do it again, but haven’t really dug into my scrap heap quite yet.  However, I made a card recently using some paper that I was not “overly fond of” and have gobs left… Here’s the card with some snippets of the paper on it: What you also don’t see is the purple collection…

Happy Tuesday!  Today while you all are having fun reading blogs and surfing the web I am at work slaving away on corporate taxes and month end accounting… and daydreaming and being excited because I’m off to Spokane in the morning.  Stacey is going to pick me up and we’re going to have some fun in Spokane before heading to her place further north and then it’s Creative University Friday through Sunday!

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…

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!
