Quick post today...I wanted to share with you the card I made to give to my daughter's teacher. Today is her last day of school (we are on year-round here) and she wanted to give her teacher a little note of thanks. Yay for school being out! No more getting up early...well for at least a month. Sigh. Have a great day everyone!
Is it really July 1st? I can hardly believe how fast this summer is already flying by! Today we've released two new Simply Singles™ and two new digital paper packs over at Lizzie Anne Designs. My card today features one of the new singles Grow With Love. To see the other new single and some new digital paper as well, be sure to stop on over to our company blog. Have a great day everyone!
Hello...anyone out there? It looks a bit dusty over here! My how time flies! Nevertheless I am back to blogging again and have a card to share with you today! This is a card I made for a sketch challenge we had a few weeks ago. To see the sketch, click here. The extra challenge was to incorporate black and white into the card somehow. I decided to make my stamped image the black and white part, and leave the rest of the card to bring the color. It was hard for me to refrain from coloring in my stamped image as I have always LOVED to color. I am happy with the results though! I really love this flower image from our Garden Inspirations set. Tricia rocked this set and I hope to see more floral sets from her in the future. (Hint, hint Tricia!) 
Well, technically spring is here, but it certainly doesn't feel like it. Yes, my tulips have popped out of the ground and will bloom in a few weeks, and yes we are in April now...BUT, it is cold and gray and is snowing every other day. Sigh...I'm just longing for some color in my currently brown yard. In the meantime I am making fake flowers...for my cards anyway! This card I'm showing today was featured in our monthly newsletter along with some directions. 
Hello there! Wow, I have been seriously neglecting my little blog! I have discovered there is no resting time in my life right now. As soon as one thing ends, another fills up the vacancy. Such is life though. Today I have a fun little birthday card to share with you. I found this super cool transit paper not too long ago at my local craft store. It's by American Crafts. Of course I had to pair it up with our Things That Go set. I colored in my little car with a Copic marker and then went over it with a colored pencil. I must say...this little car is a lot cleaner than my car right now. Mine is covered in salt residue from the last snow storm we had here. (For those of you who live in warmer climates and have no idea what I'm talking about...our roads get salted here during snow storms to prevent the roads from icing up. The salt melts the snow and ice, and what remains gets splashed and sprayed all over your car as you drive around town.) My car needs a good cleaning!
I knew immediately that this was something my daughter had done. She's very creative and has a giant imagination. I was curious to see what she had created this time.
Apparently I had come across a bus stop. I then looked around a bit more and found other things she created, taped to the wall. This includes a stop sign, and a school crossing sign. I asked her about these creations later and she just simply told me she was playing school. One of the things I love about my daughter is that when she doesn't have something to play with that she feels she needs...she will simply just draw it. I love that she has enormous creativity and I hope that it always stays with her.
Wow...I have a card to share with you today! That's right...now that my designs are done, I'm back to cardmaking again. This card I have to share with you today is for my brother and sister-in-law. Yes, they had their baby back in January, and yes, I'm a wee bit late in sending this out. Sigh. Actually though, by my usual standard of sending things to them...I'm early! They will be pleasantly surprised I'm sure! Do you like how I rationalize? hehehe :)
