Love you more than cupcakes

HI Everyone!

Hope your week is going well. I sure hope everyone is surviving your weather. Our weather has been a little eerie, still in the 80's this week and now wild fires are breaking out. Nothing too terribly close to our area and so far no homes destroyed as I write this so we just hope for everyone's safety. It's pretty odd that we are getting these temps in the winter when we rarely see 80's in the summer except last summer.

So I have another card I created using the New Peachy Keen Stamps January 2014 Release. I'm lovin it! I created this for my favorite challenges It’s A Peachy Linky Party!!!, The Kraft Journal - Color Challenge, i {heart} card sketches no.49, Cupcake inspirations - Photo

Beginning with some kraft paper, a scallop punch, and circle punch I stamped the cupcake image and colored it up...inspired by this Photo

Using paper from Basic Grey, this gorgeous color palette, and this great sketch... putting the card together was easy!

Sweet on You

Hi Everyone!

I'm popping in to share a card I made with the New Peachy Keen Stamps January 2014 Release.  It's definitely a cute one!

Happy New Year with a Shake..

Hi!
Hope everyone is enjoying the New Year so far! I've been off work so I've been able to clean up, organize, and craft. Yay for me :)
Here is a tag I made for a few challenges.

It starts with a Peachy Snowman from July Release & my first ever shaker card. I totally winged it and I'm certain you can find awesome tutorials out there which I should have used but the end result is the same. I really LOVE these and have become a little obsessed I've made 7 different types.... :) 

I used my creative time Stitched Capture Frame Die for the base 

Added MS chunky glitter some and some "Sky" Trendy Twine. Stamped a cute little tag with  My Creative Time - Small-Talk-Stamp-Set and colored the adorable snowman with Copics.
