My weekend was WONDERFUL! I feel totally relaxed and ready for work tomorrow. YEAH! Just what the Doctor ordered, right? RIGHT! :)
I stamped 4 cards today which is AWESOME! Even got my TCP Tuesday card ready for this week. WOOHOO! Wait til you see THAT baby! LOL It is WILD! I LOVE IT!! :)
I have to admit though, I really had some issues with scraps this weekend. I tried hard to make sure that I didn't let anything go to waste. YEAH!! That is HUGE for me. I am all about throwing stuff away. No, no, not big pieces of paper but you know when you use your punches and then you have a scrap with this big ole punch in the middle of it? Well, I throw those babies away BUT NOT THIS WEEKEND. You'll see EXACTLY what I am talking about this week. LOL Yes, that's right Peeps, I have enough cards (and will be stamping more this week) to post everyday (or at least that is the goal). No I am not going to kill myself to do it but I am DEFINITELY going to give it a GO! WOOT! WOOT! LOL
Alright, so... here is my first card to share...
Yes, I purchased some new Memory Box stamps from my buddy Anna. She is such a wonderful enabler! LOL Anywho, today was all about TCP and Memory Box and some new a-muse sayings. FUN, FUN, FUN!!!
Alrighty, here are the deets Peeps:
Stamps: Bird & Bird Cage from Memory Box, saying from a-muse
Cardstock: Memory Box, Gable Green & Regal Rose
Inks: Black Staz-On, Regal Rose, Barely Banana & Gable Green
Misc: Button from Hero Arts, Taffeta Ribbon, Scallop Rectangle Nesties & Giga Scallop Punch
Well there you have it Peeps, hope you all have a wonderful evening & I will catch ya tomorrow night.
Toodles,
Oh so cute! The card reminds me of sherbet! That little birdie is daaahhling! Yeah for you! Oh to relax!

I love how you filled that negative space with DP---supper cool and an awesome way to use "scraps"!

Beautiful card Karrie! The mojo was flowing this weekend! I love how you used the negative space from your die cut to frame the image...I'll have to start thinking about doing that. Love the soft colors and the beautiful stamped image (birds are just so stinkin hot right now).

Hi Karrie.
I've been thinking about you today. I had my ATCs out and I was admiring the ones you sent me. Then my friend called tonight and she's hostessing 4 atc swaps. Are you interested? Oh pretty please. I wish you would join the Memory Box one and/or A Muse. Her blog is Balance and she just updated it today. We are in an ATC club now local and we met once a month.
Please consider. If so, her email is kristinaalewis.blogspot.com I hope you are well. I too bought all these stamps and this bird cage card is breathtaking. Your work is TOP notch Karrie and I seriously mean it. You rock woman!
