Happy Birthday Kim!
the hop was organized by Kylie.

Kim is one the blog friends that I have been blessed to meet person and craft with ( thanks to Joyce) She is fun and funny, I love her sense of humor, and find I am laughing about things we did or said long after they were done. I often call her Martha because she can do anything and sometimes all in the same day, she is amazing! 

Kim is also one of the kindest people in blogland!

 I hope you have a wonderful day today and know that you are loved! Enjoy your birthday hop! 

I made many of these cards in the past to have on hand and I knew Kim would get one!  Her blog name is :Cupcakes cards and Kim!
Enjoy the hop!

Hi Friends!

I used the new stamp based off a chalkboard my daughter... Nancy, drew last summer. Sorry about the glare! 

I blended ombre ink on the back layer of the tag. This is a great tag to add to any wine or drink you might bring as a hostess gift. Or any kind of card :)

Playing along in this Papertrey Ink challenge.

I always seem to find some time on Monday mornings to do some stamping. ( or I make the time)

So many projects to be inspired by. 

I chose Kay Miller because I wanted to use my Folk stamp set and I lover her beautiful stitched tray. 

I tried to keep the colors the same.

I hope you are all doing well. We kinda had a quiet weekend but kept busy, lots of spring yard trimming. Plenty to get done before Easter. I decided to help my husband this time. 

 I love this Make It Monday #241: Ombre Stenciled Backgrounds by Betsy.

I will be doing it often so hope you don’t mind. I also love the stencil that came with the mini kit. The simple leaves are just enough without being too much.

Thanks for stopping by today!

Make It Monday #242: Sponged Stamping

Dawn from, Papertrey Ink has a fun video on sponge stamping.

This is something I do often , but it didn’t show up much on the tulips.

I promise there is even a bit of green on the tulips.

Nothing new or fancy about this card but I needed a sympathy card and decided to try yellow 

after seeing  Joyce’s  card. I love this Tulip Time Stamp Set and this only my third time using it. 

You can make almost any kind of card, fast with nice results. 

 Take care!

NBUS Challenge #6! Day 

This is my second card for Darnell’s 

Never -before-used- schtuff challenge

This baby card is for a dear friend and its way over due. 

 I’ve been praying for this little one as soon as I heard she came into the world too soon. 

Happy to say she is doing well.

I wanted to keep my ombre blending as light as possible since this is a baby card.

I finally had a chance, late last night to take out this fun set from Betsy; 

Make It Market Mini Kit: Color Pop Florals

I like the way the stenciled leaves look on top of lightly blended inks. 

It’s a great video you should head on over and watch it!

God Bless!
