Here is my first post of the Sassy Anniversary relay. This is one of their best sellers and I didn't have it so I'm am happy to own it!!!
I quickly saved and printed the image before leaving for the weekend so the image didn't print crisply. I didn't save it to a high resolution. But now I am at a disadvantage because I am crafting with limited supplies at my boat!!
That how much I want to participate in this relay! I threw some paper and other supplies in a bag and am posting this on my laptop. I printed the sentiment before I left town.
Thanks for looking. Sorry, don't have time to list all the details of the supplies.

Jess.New.Job




Congrats to my daughter, Jess, who got a new teaching job that isn't so far from home. Her commute was a killer at 2 hours a day. Her new job is close to where they are looking to buy a home and pays more too!! WooHoo!!
I used the 8x8" DCWV High School paper collection with some Bazzil CS. I used sassy studio designs digital image, colored with prismas and OMS. I used Glossy Accents on the eyeglasses and some little gems for fun. Enjoy!

Hi all, Happy Memorial Day! I made this card and tag set for my friend's son's fiance. I used
K&Co paper, mat size, 4.5 x 6.5-ish. It is a clooection of shades for blue, grey, beige, white,ivory. It is so pretty for wedding cards and projects.
I lifted the design for the card from someone who's name escapes me but I'm going to go home and look at the paper with the web address then come back and update.

I stamped the sentiment in black ink. I tried to heat emboss it several times but to no avail. Just didn't come out good so I stuck with ink only.
I used a few different MS punches. Flat back pearls, prima flowers and gems. I used the wedding solutions cart. and my cricut expression. I also used the divine swirls embossing folder and the cuttlebug.
So pretty in person.

Much love, Kim

Mojo139 & Sue.Bob.Annv.

Hi friends, I needed to make an anniversary card for my brother in law and his wife Sue.
I used Mojo Monday #139 sketch to start out and paired it with Basic Grey Urban Prairie
DS paper line. I used a cute rubber stamp with birds, can't remenber brand. I colored it twice and cut one set out and popped it up. This is the first time I did this. I have been admiring other peoples work who do this. It came out cute! I used a K&co fabric covered brad, some black hemp twine, ribbon from Joannes. I cut the label shape from my cricut. Thanks for looking!

Cara.B-day & Paperplay







Oh, I'm so excited to post this. My card making/coloring skills are getting better! I love Sassy Studio Designs digi stamps. They are so nice! My daughter loves pirates. I made this for her birthday which was yesterday. She is 26 now!



I'm entering this in Paper Play Challenge which is to use stamp or digistamp and bling.

I used gems and pearls as my "treasure" on the digi stamp. I added a little key which I got in Michaels in a package of little blue embellishments. Recollections, I think. There were keys, blue gingham mini bows, blue pom poms and some adorable tiny clothes pins. I plan to make a clothes line card of some sort with them.

I used the map paper from DCWV, Once upon a time stack from 2 years ago. I matted it on Navy cs. I added a brown print peice which I matted on purple cs and ran the brown print thru the cuttlebug. I think the folder is called Victoria. I cut the oval with my SB cart. and cricut.
I made a bow and layered a cs strip on top of a scalloped strip. (SU punch).

I'm so happy with it. Kim :) :)
