Winter Time Fun..

I finally had a chance to stamp today! For this card I folded a 8.25x4.25 sheet of sage shadow in half. I stamped the top half with snowflakes from my wintertime fun and snow flurries sets using versamark. The bottom half is a 2.25x4.25 strip of snowflake patterned paper from SU's wintergreen line. To divide the top from the bottom I used SU's soft sky ribbon. Ok, so for the main image I cut a 2.25x2.25 square of very vanilla and the stamped the kitty. I used Prismacolors to color the image. I then layered my image onto a 2.5" scalloped patterned paper square which is also matted onto a 3" scalloped square of soft sky. I really wish I could say I used my nestablilities for this card BBUUTT sadly they're under my tree! For the snow I used star dust stickles. I hope ya'll enjoy!

SUPPLIES: Stamps: wintertime fun, snow flurries Paper: sage shadow, wintergreen, very vanilla, soft sky Ink: versamark, archival black Accessories: Soft sky ribbon, prismacolors, odorless mineral spirits, blending stumps.

Sisterhood of the Blogging Stampers-6

I just found out I made it into the sisterhood of the blogging stampers! Ok, for the getting to know me part: I've been married for almost 3 years to a great guy I met in high school. I have a beautiful 23 month old named Kylie, she's my buddy-for the next 10 years anyway :) My husband convinced me to start scrapbooking shortly after she was born. I kind of liked scrapbooking but it really wasn't that "fun" to me. I came across the card making section at my LSS and decided that I would probably enjoy that a lot more and I have. What I truly enjoy is altering things. My whole family lives within a two mile radius and I love that! I'm currently a full time student at Texas Women's University (and I don't love that!). I can honestly say that if it weren't for Kylie I would be a college drop out! I have one dog, a maltese, named Bailey. I'm super excited to be apart of the SBS-6 and look forward to seeing all my sistah's new projects!
