Stairstep

I finally decided to try a stairstep card. I was browsing through SCS and was so inspired by THIS card, that I just had to CASE it.

The stamps are all from High Hopes, except for the little flowers around the sentiment, which are from a retired TAC set. Colored with colored pencil.

Stamps Anyone?

My friend Carol is celebrating her blogoversary by giving away some stamp sets. Check them out HERE
These sets are just too cute, so maybe you should forget going to check them out and just let me have them. Ok, ok, just kiddin' =)

Basketball Card

A fun basketball card using a retired TAC stamp set. I used a cuttlebug embossing folder for the background, and nestabilities for the scalloped circle.

Kinda Yellow

When I was taking a picture of this card, Anthony had to give me his two cents worth. "It is a little bit too yellow, but other than that it is really pretty." You know what? I agree with him, =).

I have had this stamp so long that I don't know what company gets the credit of making it. The sentiment is from TACs "Tag Tidbits," which is one of my favorite all purpose saying sets. Those little sentiments can fit about anywhere on a card.

Happy Birthday

I made this birthday card for a very special person. I just can't say for whom yet, because they haven't received it; it is, however, masculine for a reason =).

The card was created from this week's Mojo Monday sketch. The stamps and paper are all from TAC. The embossing was done with my Big Shot and a Cuttlebug folder, and the coloring was done with watercolor pencil.

It's Your Day

I made this using one of TAC's great hostess sets called "One of a Kind." Right now a hostess can receive not one, not two, but THREE hostess sets for free just for having a party! Add that to the other incredible hostess rewards and you can't go wrong.

You can see all of the hostess sets, and read more about this special HERE (just scroll down to see the hostess sets)

Wishing You...

I am missing the warm breezy weather of spring, and the thought of skipping through some flower sounds so wonderful that I pulled out some spring colors and made a card for a little girl.
The little girl is from TAC's "Spunky Sprite Girlz" (T3143). I paper pieced her dress, and then added a little shading. The sentiment and the fake stitching are also TACs sets.
The flowers are from a punch I had forgotten I had and just came across recently. I love it when these things happen, it is like getting a gift.
