Merry Monday #41 and IBSIC #35 (one more)





Hello again, blogger friends!  I haven't been able to play in the Merry Monday challenge for awhile, but I finished this card last night, and I think it qualifies for Merry Monday and the Inspired by Stamping Inspiration Challenge also.  

Again, I used My Mind's Eye Paper and embossed gold doilies on it from IBS Delicate Doilies II.  I added a glitter gold banner with three doilies on the side.  Lots of sparkle going on again!

Thanks for stopping by!

IBSIC #35



Hello blogger friends!  It's almost midnight here in Fort Wayne, Indiana.  I finished my card for the Inspired by Stamping Inspiration Challenge #35 last night, but couldn't get it posted until now.  We were to use the inspiration photo and the colors pink, gold, and white.   I used some My Mind's Eye paper and stamped gold doilies from IBS Delicate Doilies II.  I embossed them in gold and added a little bit of rhinestone bling. I stamped the big doilie on pink paper and embossed with white.  I then added some pearls and a gold embossed Merry Christmas sentiment.  I matted that layer with gold glitter paper which I put on a pink pirouette card stock base.  I do like how it turned out.  It's very sparkly in real life!

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a great Thanksgiving!

IBSIC #34






Hello, blogger friends on this cold November evening.  I've been swamped with work lately which has left me with very little time to make any cards.  This is the first day I've had off in a week, and I'm working part time!  All I can do is try, I guess, but I think it will just get busier at the store with Christmas fast approaching.  

Anyway, I need to finish up some sets of cards for Christmas presents, so I decided to play at the Inspired by Stamping Inspiration Challenge #34.  The only stamping I did was on the sentiment with an Inspired by Stamping stamp.  My focal point was cut from some beautiful My Mind's Eye paper called Bluebell Remember Journal paper.  My gorgeous background paper also comes from My Mind's Eye, "Oliver" Blue Quatrefoil paper which comes already embossed.   

Thanks for stopping by!  I love reading your comments.
