Listen to this...

And another baby card...

Hhhmm, I guess I'm on a baby card kick lately.  I think my little Mr. Zeke has been inspiring me. :)

My card today is one that I taught in a class awhile ago but I changed up the color scheme a bit (so my students have already seen this one.)  I started by cutting a piece of Grass gingham paper in half to form the card base, and then I folded it "inside out" so the pattern was on the inside.  Next I trimmed it down a few inches (almost half-way) so the pattern showed through.  For the bumper part of the crib, I stamped it first on the white cardstock then again on a scrap piece of gingham, trimmed it out and adhered it over the first stamped image.  I then punched it out and adhered it to the scallop circle.  I added a panel of purple kitchen and then some glitter and a sentiment finished it off. 

Thanks so much for checking it today! Happy Monday!

The one with baby cards...

Hey there!  How are you all doing? All is good here! Sweet baby Zeke is 5 months old today and keeping me busy as always!  I sure LOVE being a mama!

Speaking of sweet babies, I've got a few cards to share with you! The first one uses one of my fave baby stamps Elephant and Baby and is colored with Copic markers.  I used the yellow kitchen notecards and then colored some white sheer polka-dot ribbon with a gray Copic marker to match the card.  The sentiment is from the Baby Wishes clear set. 

The next card is a super simple little monkey card that I made using the Jungle clear set by TPC stamps.  I stamped the vine and sentiment, then stamped the monkey on a scrap piece, cut it out and mounted it to the card with pop-dots. Super easy!

Off to make cookies then watch a movie with my hubby! Chat at ya soon! :)

A Muse Calendar is here!

Hi everyone! The A Muse calendars are back and available for purchase/download right here. If you're not familiar with the calendars, it's something that Linda came up with a couple of years ago as a way for A Muse to give back to the community. Each year Linda designs these calendars with all of the proceeds going to a different charity and this year, the charity is Charley's Fund.  To read more about Charley, click here. (Tissue alert!)  Won't you please join the A Muse team in supporting this wonderful cause by purchasing a calendar (or two?) These make PERFECT Christmas presents! I'll  be making some over the coming weeks and will post pics as soon as they're done! Thanks so much!

A Moxy Fab Challenge

Hey there!! Happy Saturday! I love lazy Saturday mornings (well, it's not too lazy around here since Isaiah has a soccer game in a little bit) but it's still nice to veg for a bit. :)

Happy Birthday...*Beep-Beep*

Can you believe I'm posting two days in a row?? Crazy!  I got this Robot kit awhile ago (I'm telling  ya, I love kits!) and this is the first time I've gotten to play with it. You know I love making boy cards and this one was really fun/easy to make.  This falls under the "it's for a little boy that will not notice details" category so I kept it very simple. The sentiment is from A Muse and the punch is called Captions and it's from EK Success.

Chat at ya soon! Thanks for stopping by!

4 Months!

So, I just realized I forgot to post Zeke's four month shot in August and now he's almost 5 months! ACK! STOP GROWING! Lol!

Here's my beautiful, happy boy! Love him sooooo much!

Birthday Boy Sketch

What's up, blogland? I've got a card to share - woot, woot! One of my fave places for inspiration is Tracy's blog Eat, Sleep, Stamp. She posts a sketch every week and I got to play this time! Yay! Here's the sketch -

And my card using My Mind's Eye goodies.  I got this new kit (scroll down, it's the boy version) and I. Love. It. I have a "thing" for kits that include die cut shapes and matching papers, it makes card making soooo easy! The party hat (from A Muse, I'm pretty sure it's retired) is stamped on the pattern paper, cut out and attached to the cute elephants head. The sentiment is also from A Muse from the Mainly Men clear set.
