You Crack me up...

Happy Wednesday!

I just realized that I only have a few more days that I can post Easter cards. I decided that I needed to "hop to it!"

The base of this card was made from a tag from the Sugar and Spice cart, the frames are also from that cart, and the chick and egg are from Simply Charmed.

The papers are from Papertrey Ink and DCWV's Blossom stack.
The twine is from the Twinery.

The chicks face is from Peachy Keen Stamps, PK-754 Critter Faces Set.
The sentiment stamp is from Emma's Color Me Happy stamp set.

See you tomorrow!
I hope you have a great day!

Spring is Bliss

Happy Tuesday!

I have a super quick card for you today. I made this cute bird house card with Lettering Delights svg file called, Spring is Bliss.

I created a shadow layer around the bird house and then welded two of them together to form the base of the card.

I used Papertrey Ink and Core-dinations papers.

Some stitching around the house and a few dots and I think it turned out pretty cute!

Lettering Delights is having a huge sale right now, so if you use svg files and haven't checked them out yet, you should!

So... I also have a few blog hop winners to announce. 

The winner from the "Hanging with my Peeps" hop is:

...no bunny like you...

Happy Monday!

How was your weekend? The weather here in southern California was sunny, warm, and beautiful! I spent Friday night with my BFF, her hubby, and their daughter. We went to dinner at the chicken pie shop. Yum! Saturday, I spent the day at The Queen's
house, working on projects. She got a couple new carts and I kept having to steal borrow her Gypsy. Luckily, she loves me and she didn't mind... to much. :) Yesterday I spent the day doing laundry, cleaning, organizing, and  getting ready for the week ahead. Super exciting right?

I also want to say welcome to all my new followers.

I have some fun cards to share with you this week!
Here is the first one.
The base of the card and frame is from the Formal Occasions cart. There are a ton of really cool frames on this cart! The bunny's are from the Stretch Your Imagination cart.
The papers are Papertrey Ink, Core-dinations, and the patterned paper is one that I  stole borrowed from The Queen. :)

Don't you just LOVE Emma's stamps!?! This is from her Color Me Happy set.

Peachy Keen Stamps are super cool too! The bunny's faces are from PKS's new set called PK-440 Cute and Cuddly Face Assortment set. The twine is from The Twinery.

I still have two giveaway's going on until 8pm tonight, to enter, click here and here. I will be choosing the winners via random.org tonight and announcing them tomorrow.

See you tomorrow!
 I hope you have a wonderful day!

Hanging with my Peeps Blog Hop!

 Happy Friday!
Welcome to the "Hanging with my Peep's" blog hop! If you have arrived from the Queen's royal blog, then you are on the right track. If you would like to start at the beginning click here.
Amanda asked everyone to create a project with peeps.

Here is a sneak peek of what I made...
Can you tell what it is?


Yes... yes I did! I know... but I was running out of time and I was in desperate need of something.
For those of you that still have no idea what I am talking about, I made a Peeps wreath. I wrapped 1" brown satin ribbon around a 8" foam wreath, that I purchased at Joann's.
I secured the ribbon with hot glue. BTW~ it only took, one spool of ribbon.
Then I started hot gluing the peeps to the wreath. I know... but I am not a huge fan of eating peeps, so it was no big deal for me to glue them down. Surprisingly, they didn't melt... I am not sure if that is a good or a bad thing. 
Here is the finished wreath.

Lucky for me I don't have an ant problem... although I may have one in the near future. :( I have no idea how well, or even if... it will hold up.

I have a couple more ideas of things to do with these fabulous little sugary treats. I will share them next week on my blog! So stay tuned peeps! (Sorry, couldn't resist!)
Amanda is giving everyone an opportunity to play along! If you would like to make a project or share a project that you have made with Peeps, you can link them on her blog!  You have all week to make something. She is going to randomly pick a winner next Friday. 

Ready for some blog candy?

Hey Chickie!

Happy Thursday!
Woohoo! Two days until the weekend! Remember how I told you on Monday that I was feeling ahead of the game? Well, that lasted about 15 minutes. LOL This month has been crazy busy for me and I am hoping at some point I will be able to catch up longer then 15 minutes.

Today's post is a quick card that I made with 2 svg files that I purchased from  Lettering Delights. The sets are Peeps and Stuck on You, they have the cutest images on them!
The card is a frame that I created a shadow around. Then I took two of them and welded them together to form the base. The chick is from the Peeps set and the frame is from the Stuck on You set.
The papers are from Papertrey Ink, Doodlebug Designs,
 Core-dinations, and We Are Memory Keepers.
Isn't the this little chick the cutest!?!
The stamped sentiment is from Emma's stamp set Color me Happy.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Tomorrow is a new Peachy Keen Satmps, Let's Face it Friday Challenge. I can't wait to show you my card! 

I am also in Amanda's "Hanging with my Peep's" blog hop.
The entire hop will be projects made with peeps! So fun!

The papers are from DCWV and Core-dinations.
