Congratulations!

Happy Thursday! Are the weeks getting shorter, or is it just me? :) This week, I made a quick Congratulations card for a friend who recently graduated from college. This card was made with digi papers and stamps from Lindsay's Stamp Stuff. I used this week's freebie background paper, the All Around Phrases stamp, and a piece of the striped paper from the Black and White Elegant card kit. I kept this card all black and white so I could enter a challenge at Drunken Stampers this week. It also qualifies for the House Mouse Monday challenge (distress) and the ABC challenge (unused stash - brads).
I wish you all a fabulous Thursday, and I hope you will take a few minutes to check out the rest of the design team's creations for this week. I have posted a current list of DT members on my side bar, or you can see the list on Lindsay's Blog. Stop by and check out this week's freebie and have fun!

That's So Random!

I have been on a card making rampage for the last week! These are a few that I made recently using stamps from Lindsay's Stamp Stuff. (Yes, still working on those UFOs!) These were random images that I had in my stash and were begging for me to use them on some cards. All images were colored with my bic mark its and Prisma markers. I embellished the cards with Stickles, ribbons and trims. These cards were lots of fun to make! If you would like to make a project or (two or three), check out Lindsay's Stamp Stuff at MyGraficO for instant downloads of these cute images and more! Everything at MyGraficO is 30% off all day today! I used images from the following sets:

The school papers and apple (which was part of an image) were freebies on Lindsay's blog, THEFRUGALCRAFTER'S WEBLOG. Hop on over to her blog and see what she has for today's freebie and check out what the rest of the design team has been working on this week and be sure to leave some love for them! Happy Digi Stamping Everyone!

Happy Anniversary!

Today is my wedding anniversary. I made this card for my sweet hubby. I stamped my House Mouse image on white cardstock and colored it with my watercolor pencils. I adhered that to a piece of blue bazzill cardstock. Next, I folded an 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of white cardstock in half. I attached 2 panels of Lovey Dovey Splendid double sided patterned paper to my white card, using both sides. Then I adhered a strip of blue bazzill across the middle and stamped swirls with stamps by studio g. I adhered the House Mouse panel to that and stamped the sentiment (studio g). The inside is a secret, so that's that! I hope he likes it...
