Cozy Crafting Day

Its been a little chilly here in Texas so I've been spending my days off in doors, fully refusing to go anywhere. Its the perfect weather for stamping though. And apparently its the perfect weather for cleaning, I managed to organize 1 of our spare bedrooms and the laundry room today before I started stamping. And did I mention I ran a mile this morning on the treadmill? Yeah, I'm a little bit of an over achiever. ;o)

So here's what I was working on today. Well, I'm also working on baby shower invites, but those won't be finished until this weekend, so I can't post pictures of those yet

This first one was the result of scraps of fabric and excitement to use my new cuttlebug.
Friend to Friend
The flower type thing was made from fabric cut into circles...I frayed the edges to make it wavy and add the vintage look I was going for. The cherry cobbler base was made with a dots embossing folder for a little added texture. The very vanilla sheet was cut by the cuttlebug and the top note die. And of course I used my new favorite set "Bliss" from the SAB catalog.

This next one is for a friend who is going through a really tough time right now.

Sympathy Card

I colored in the flower with Stampin' Pastels - which is chalk.


Thanks for stopping by!

  1. Oooo. Cool! A cuttlebug. Have fun with that. I know when I finally joined the cricut world last year, I found excuses to use it for everything! Cute stuff....as always.

  2. I just love your cards. They have come a long ways. Not that they were ever bad, but they are so creative and gorgeous now. I wish I had time to stamp. Maybe I'll have time this summer. I miss you friend. I miss us getting to stamp together! :(
