As most of you may have already heard Cammie designed a beautiful stamp set for Gina K Designs called Whimsical Autumn . She is donating 100% of her profits to the Alzheimer's Association in memory of her Grandmother. And because World Alzheimer's day is this week, she is giving away blog candy. A bunch of companies have donated $1000 worth of stamping goodies! And she asked some of her stamping friends to donate cards they have stamped. This is an Amazing prize! Please go to her blog to check it out. Some of the prizes include: My Favorite Things: $50 gift certificate. Gina K Designs : $50 gift certificate. Stamping Bella: $50 gift certificate. Beate Johns (Beate), Cambria Turnbow (Cambria), Charmaine Ikach (Charmwarm) are just some of the lovely women who donated cards. Don't miss out on this wonderful blog candy and the chance to do something to feel good. My card that is pictured below is going to be mailed today to The Staff at the Artman Home 250 N. Bethlehem PikeAmbler, PA 19002 - these are the caregivers that took care of Cammie's grandmother.

Monday Lunchtime Sketch - TSSC36

Here is my version of Mary Jo's Lunchtime Sketch #36. I changed the ovals to circles so the cupcakes would fit. The cupcakes are from the SU set Just for Fun. The background sheet I made by rolling a birthday party wheel across my Fresh Greens Kaleidacolor pad. Then I used a blender pen and the K-pad to color in the cupcakes. Great sketch! Thanks Mary Jo for the challenge.

Creating with Chrissy Belli Challenge #34 (CBC34)

This week Chris's Belli Challenge was to use anything that is a square to embellish your card. Here is my version. I used Inspired by Nature and Year-Round Cheer stamps and some left over scrapping paper. My square embellishment is a slide holder. I have a bunch of these lying around and have really never used them. So, this was a great challenge for me.

Thanks for looking! :)

Stamp Club Cards

I belong to a long distance monthly stamp club. These two cards are made with the card kits that I received for last month. I didn't have the exact stamps, so I have put my own twist on them.

Thanks for looking!

Monday Sketch Challenge - TSSC25

This is a card I made for Mary Jo's Monday Lunch Time Sketch Challenge #35. I used Merci and Wonderful Words from Stampin' UP! as well as a piece of scrap paper from my stash. I used Pumpkin Pie, More Mustard and So Saffron ink and card stock.

Mary Jo's Monday Lunchtime Sketch #34

It is late on Wednesday, but here is a Monday Sketch card. The challenge came from Mary Jo at Techno Stamper. See the sketch at the right. I used Sweet Dreams from Stampin' UP! and Friendship background stamp from Inkadinkadoo. The background scrap paper is an old sheet from my scrap pile from Stampin' UP! I also used Green Galore and Pink Passion ink and cardstock. I punched a flower and added a flower eyelet with a silver brad for the middle. The white ribbon is some that came off of a gift and I saved for just a project like this. Thanks for the challenge Mary Jo, I enjoyed participating!

Belli Challenge - CBC33

Every Wednesday Chris Dickinson of Creating with Chrissy posts a challenge to use an embellishment that is lying around your stamp room not being used. This week was fibers - something that I have a lot of and don't use nearly enough. So, I jumped on this challenge to decorate my reading journal. I thought that Bookwormabella was the perfect stamp to use for this project. The scrapping paper is also something that has been in a drawer for a LONG time and so I added it to the project as well. I used chocolate chip and creamy caramel card stock to compliment the scrap paper. The beads are recycled from my daughter, Kaitlin's stash.
