Craftaholics R Us Challenge #3 ~ Anything Goes

Hello friends!! I hope that 2018 is being good to you so far. It's time for another challenge over at Craftaholics R Us and we hope you can join us! To see all the guidelines and participate in the fun, simply click on the badge below....


This week's theme:  ANYTHING GOES


**********************

One of the many benefits of remodeling my craft room is that I get to clean up and go through old stuff. It's a little embarrassing to admit but I have supplies that I've forgotten about and never even opened or used. It's almost like going shopping in my own craft room!

That brings me to today's card.... I found this cardstock and matching die cuts from Carta Bella and, as luck would have it, I needed to make a birthday card for our friend/neighbor and I wanted to make it country/farm themed yet also a little feminine.... Umm, hello!?! Could this collection be more perfect!?!

Craftaholics R Us Challenge #1 ~ Celebration Cards

Hello friends!! HAPPY NEW YEAR!! I hope you are having a wonderful holiday week!

It's time for another challenge over at Craftaholics R Us and we hope you can join us! To see all the guidelines and participate in the fun simply click on the badge below....

Today's card was made using all Stampin' Up! products (except for a Zig Clean Color watercolor marker I used to fill in the sentiment). I'm very happy with how it turned out and I had forgotten how easy it is to create with their products since everything coordinates and there's no guesswork or trying to match elements. I recently just started ordering from Stampin' Up! again and I got all the goodies to make this card (and more!) as a gift from my fabulous demonstrator, Janis Lewis!! If you don't already have your own demonstrator, I would like to recommend her! You can shop at her Stampin' Up! store by clicking HERE.   

I would like to point out that I still continue to buy, use, and love many other companies and products, so what I said above is not meant to diminish what I've said previously about other companies. I have posted several times about my love of Close To My Heart products and that has not changed. I still love and support my long-time CTMH demonstrator, Diana Larson (click HERE to check out her CTMH store).
