Sweeter than Hunny

Hey there, Dear Internet Readers!

I know I haven't posted in a while but I still am occasionally crafting.  I have so many cards and crafts to share.  I just need to sit and post them all!   One day...one day...

Anyway, I wanted to share the tag I made from the this Bridal Shower Favor I made a long time ago. 

It's one of my more popular pins besides the Minions boxes.  

Someone asked if I could sell the tags - and that would be awesome if I could, but the image does not belong to me and I do not steal.  

I can - however - give them to you.  So I made a generic tag - if you would like to use it, you can add it to a Word document or Photoshop or whatever you feel comfortable using.  It is a .jpeg so you can resize it however you want.  My circles were about 2 inches big and I used a 2 1/4 circle punch to pop them out - easy peasy.  

Please don't steal it and sell it.  Use it, share it, but please do not claim it as your own.  I would be happy to make other designs if you would like - and I will get to them when I can.  You can leave a comment/request on one of the blog posts.  I will eventually be sharing the Lilo and Stitch tags and the Minion tags.  I would love to personalize it for you one day - and maybe one day I will go into business for myself - but that day is not today.  :-)

So please enjoy the tag!  Pin it and share it!

Thank you for visiting my blog!

Kind of Woman Word Art

Two years ago, I created this card:

I have seen this quote so many times.  I have no idea who's quote it is.

I created my own digi for it.  I never added it to the blog post.  

So I just wanted to add it here:

If you use any of my digis, leave me a comment with link to your project!

I would love to see it!

Thanks for coming by!

Grateful Puppy Love

Ok - so I was early making my card for the Wags 'n Whiskers challenge but I am super late with my post.  So so so sorry!

The challenge is for Banners or Bunting.

**Please read all of the rules at the top of the blog**

One lucky participant will win a free Wags 'n Whiskers Rubber stamp!

You don't have to use a Wags 'n Whiskers image on your card, but if you do, you will be entered into a 2nd drawing for a free Wags 'n Whiskers Digi.

This is actually a first for me.  I've never done a banner before.  I love checking out Lacey's cards because she uses banners quite a bit...but I have never done one.  It wasn't a hard.  It was actually super easy.  That's why I like these and other challenges.  It forces me out of my comfort zone.  My style is usually easy peasy/CASish.  So doing something new is great.

Onto my card:

The precious stamp is called Puppy Love.  I like that you can use this image for a friend or for love...it works for so many occasions.  Go!  Buy it!  You need it! :-)

This is stamped on watercolor paper and colored with Twinklin' H2Os.

Other Card Details:

Base - SU Daffodil Delight

DP - SU Gingham Garden

Twine - Divine Twine Yellow Solid

Buttons - My Stash

I made the banner using my Silhouette.  Simple Triangles were cut out and glued to the twine.

The sentiment I made and cut it out with a circle punch.

You can download it here.
If you use any of my digis, leave me a comment with link to your project!
I would love to see it!

Stuffed with Blessings

Can you believe it's almost fall of this year already????? 
Christmas is only ___ amount of days away.

I don't really know how many days away Christmas is.  I don't even want to think about it yet! :-)  Too soon.  Not ready.  Nope.
September 1 is just around the corner.  Holy cow!  

I have a fall card to share with you.

 This stamp is from High Hopes called Guard Duty Rudy.  It doesn't look like he's very effective at his job.  That's okay.  He's just too stinkin' cute.  I've owned this stamp for a very long while.  This is the first time I've inked him up though.
He is stamped onto watercolor paper and colored with Twinklin' H2Os.

 Other card details:

Base - PTI Pinefeather

DP - Recollections Comic Heroes

Yellow circle - stash

Pears - Basic Gray

The sentiment is one I made.  You can download it here.
