A Stamping We Will Go…

Hellooooo, knock…knock…anyone still read my blog???!!!

Hee hee…

It’s been ages since my last post BUT, that certainly does not mean I haven’t been doing anything all Summer.

I’ve been making cards, working on catching up on all the kit’s I’ve collected the past couple of years…I believe I started out with about 20 in my cupboard and now I’m down to only 6 to finish BUT, I do still have to add pictures, that’s the hard part! I’ve been making some cards, getting together every 2 weeks lately to scrap with my girlfriends, I’ve been working on my Christmas album…10 years in one album! I’ve been going to make cards here and there at a SU demo’s house here in town…so it’s not like I haven’t been creative!!! I’ve just been lazy in posting to my blog!

So…here we go!

I made these cards a while back, well the actual image and finally mounted them to make a card a week ago!

The first card I used a sketch from the Cardmaker’s Sketch Book: Christmas Celebration.

I love all the glitter but, that’s about it!!!

Whoa…it’s been a while since I have last posted!

I completely lost my mojo, my ability to create…I was a tad worried there for a while!

You wouldn’t believe how long it took me to make 10 of these cards…cards I absolutely HAD to make or I might never hear the end of it from certain friends & family!

I had saved a couple of pics on my iphone of some cards I saw in Hallmark & I went with that layout.

**ETA: I LIED! As I was trying to fall asleep last night I realized that’s not right…I DID in fact use a sketch from The Sweetest Thing – Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge #96 found here. Sorry!

I whipped these cards up pretty quickly.

I made 24 in total.

They are 4 1/4″ x 4 1/4.

I used Sketch #112 from Clean & Simple found here.

Here is the fifth group:

I also used sketch 111 from Clean & Simple found here which I totally cased from the sample! Loved it!

This card is soooo much prettier & blingy in real life!

Here is the fourth group:

I used a sketch from Clean & Simple 111 found here.

Here is the third group:

I used Clean & Simple Sketch 109 found here.

Here is the second group:

and in blue:

My daughter actually made the first 4 of these…than I took over!

I belive I used a sketch for this one but, unfortunately I can’t find it…sorry :O(

It’s that time of year again & I have been busy making Christmas cards for the Troops…I ended up making 60 all together, so over the next couple of days I will show you what I made!

Here is the first group:

I used Sketch 83 from Card Patterns found here.

I was looking for ideas for Christmas cards to send off to the Canadian Troops & I wanted something that I could easily mass produce, maybe 1 layer, maybe no layers & I came across this one found here & I thought PERFECT because everyone knows I love, LOVE snowflakes!!!

So off I went, I started Wednesday night by making the first one, the “prototype”  than everyday I did a step to bring me one step closer to the finish line!

I finally finished today, I made 50 all together.
