A Bit of Halloween Inspiration

Happy Halloween!!  I hope everyone is ready, I know my kids are and have been for weeks now.  Me, not so much being that I keep eating all the candy that I buy to hand out.  I have such a sweet tooth.  I made this card using Pumpkin Bear which is one of my favs.  

The paper I used is Cosmo Cricket and the rest is just from my stash.  Well, I hope you all have a great and SAFE evening and I will see you next week.

On Ice

It's Wednesday again and today I'm sharing a simple birthday card using Happy Birthday Penguin!  I used Copic markers to add a little color to the image and then added fun flock to the top of the ice cube.  I added some simple gemstone flourishes to add a little sparkle.  More specific details can be found on my blog.

Enjoy your day!

Tuesday Inspiration 10/25/11

Well, this is my last Halloween card for the year. I used 2 Cute Rubber Stamp's, Pumpkin Bear. I have had a very very busy past couple days, so I didn't have much time to stamp. I used several layers of card stock, buttons (always thread your buttons they look more polished) and I put googly eyes on the BOO. The little eyeballs move around. A little touch of whimsey. Hope you have a fun, safe and spooky Halloween! Enjoy!

A Bit of Monday Inspiration

Happy Monday, hope everyone had a great weekend and hope your week goes well (or fast, hehe)  My card for today is made with I Cherrysh You Cherry Wedding Digital Stamp.  How fun is this for a wedding card.  I was needing to make a card for a friend and this will work perfectly.

See you all back here for some fun on Halloween,

Sunday Inspiration

Hi there!  I'm a little late posting my Sunday card, but my weekend got a little busier than I expected (in a good way)!  This week, I used the Best of Friends image on another Halloween card.  I thought the spider tied in with the Halloween theme, so instead of using a "happy h-OWL-oween" sentiment which would draw attention away from the spider, I used a stamp by Clear & Simple Stamps that seemed appropriate for these two guys.  I colored my backyard friends with some Copics and used papers by Target to jazz them up.  To finish off the card, I stuck on some purple buttons and called it a day.  I'm just about finished with my Halloween cards, how about you??  :)  Thanks so much for stopping by friends, hope you all had a great weekend!

Lolli-Hop

It's Wednesday!  I hope you've had a good beginning to your week!  This week, I'm sharing a card made with Lolli-Hop.  Isn't this bunny just the cutest?!  You could color the lollipop any color, but I chose to turn it into one of those fabulous rainbow lollipops that every child begs their parents for at some point in time!  You can find more details on my blog.

Enjoy the rest of your week!

Tuesday Inspiration 10/18/11

Happy Tuesday! I made this card using my favorite color, Purple. The pumpkin image is called "Pumpkin Love". Isn't it sooo cute!?! You can purchase this image here.

I used some Halloween card stock I had in my stash, my Copic Markers to color the images in, my little maple leaf paper punch, and a embossing folder for the background. Wow, less than 2 weeks until Halloween. Better get candy shopping soon!
Have a wonderful day!! Stop by my blog here for more inspiration -

My Monday Inspiration

Happy Monday, if the 2 can REALLY go together.  I have a birthday card for you today.  I thought I would stray from the Halloween path, as I felt like doing something pink.  The image is Kitty Surprise, and you can find it here, both digi's and rubber.  

I took the picture at an angle so you could see the silver paper and the way I embossed it with happy birthday.  Well that's all I have for, have a great week!!

Sunday Inspiration

Hi friends!  I still consider myself a "newbie" on this design team, so I'm not sure often Monster Mash has been used, but I thought it would be fun to show it used on a Halloween card!  I searched (and searched!) through my Halloween supplies until I found a "monster mash" sentiment (sticker by American Crafts).  Since the sentiment was AC, I figured I would pull out a pack of papers from the same line to match that baby blue in the letters.  I used my Copics to color the image and punched it out with my EK Success 2 3/4" circle punch and matted it with a scalloped circle.  I found the ribbon in my scrap stash and roughed it up a bit for a distressed look.  To finish off the card, I added some pearls by Recollections (Michaels).  I love this cute pair- they sure take the scary out of Halloween, don't they?!  :D  I hope you enjoy my card, thanks so much for stopping by!

Happy Saturday!

Oh boy!!! Do I ever feel silly!! You see, I joined this DT over a month ago, but then my life got super crazy! My Dad, poor guy, got really--really sick! He ended up in the hospital and then the nursing home for physical therapy. It's been a life changing journey. THEN....I JUST realized that my day for posting for 2 Cute Rubber Stamps is on Saturday, and that I GOT! What I DIDN'T realize is I was supposed to be posting HERE...not on MY blog! (I'm so red in the face) LOL!!!
Okay...enough jabbering!!
Here is my Inspiration Project. It's a small gift tag that opens up like a card on a dollar store gift bag.


And here's a close-up view:

Thanks for visiting today! And I promise to get better at this! LOL

2Cute Friday Inspiration

Good morning everyone,
Life has been fairly hectic here lately. I started a new job on Tuesday and there is a fair amount of work to be done, however that hasn't stopped me from creating a cute little card. I apologize in advance for the quality of the picture, my camera is off on vaction with the hubby in Canada...

I wanted to do a monochromatic card, so I chose black and white. It's hard to see but the layers are a silver holographic paper and a striped glitter paper. I used only white, black and silver embellishments, then for a pop of color I colored in the cherry red.
Please enjoy and I hope you will all have a great weekend.
Take care - Jodie

Pumpkin Inspiration

Today's card features Baby Pumpkin Apple in all its cuteness!  I think that diaper is just too adorable!  After coloring the image with Copic markers and cutting it out, I used a mixture of decorative paper for this and then added some brads and ribbon.  That toothy grin should brighten anyone's day!  You can find more detailed information about this card on my blog.

Have a fabulous day!

Tuesday Inspiration 10/11/11

Hello and Happy Tuesday!

I made this cute kitty card in a snap! I used Color Bok pattern paper. The pad has many patterns that go well together. Then the solid color card stock is from DCWV. Copic Markers to color "Thank You Cat" image which you can purchase here.. A few flower punches to layer and a cute little button that is threaded with Scrappers Floss.

Digital stamps are so fun to work with as you can size them as you wish. Enjoy your day and Happy Stamping!

A Bit of Monday Inspiration Finally

OK, all I can say is" I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT MY INTERNET CONNECTION"  I didn't realize how much we really use it.  I am posting this so late because my internet connections comes and goes whenever it darn well feels like it.  I made this tag for a Halloween gift for my youngest. 

 I used Pumpkin Love and you can find it here. This image works great for Halloween, Mothers Day, Father's Day, or anything really.  I am always looking for images that can work in other ways.  Well, hopefully you all had a great weekend and a wonderful start to your week.

Sunday Inspiration

Happy Sunday, friends!  Today I finally got around to inking up one of my very favorite 2 Cute images- Artic Friends Polar Bear and Penguin!  I should point out that this stamp is actually quite large (roughly 3.5" by 3.75") and I had to break out my Grand Nestabilities in order to show the whole image.  I colored these cuties with my Copics and matted them on some Quite Contrary papers by My Mind's Eye.  The sentiment is a stamp by Starving Artistamps and I embellished sparingly with some Making Memories brads.  


I hope you enjoy my frosty card, thanks so much for stopping by!

2Cute Friday Inspiration

Good morning everybody,
I trust you are all having a wonderful week so far and now that it's Friday, that's even better. For today, here is my creation...

I've always loved a pink and brown combination, so I decided to try it out on my card. I actually colored in the image with my colored pencils and Gamsol. This was a little tricky as I had to make sure the image didn't run.
I added Prima flowers and buttons and the saying is actually from a package of seals that I got in the wedding section of Hobby Lobby.
Hope you enjoy the card, take care,
Jodie

Turkey Tot

With the arrival of autumn, I've been thinking a lot about Thanksgiving!  October is already here and next month brings with it Turkey Day!  I used Baby Turkey to create this simple card.  At first, I was going to make something for a first birthday theme, but as I started creating I started thinking about how I could use this cutie for a Thanksgiving card.  I had the idea that I could put a sentiment inside that said something like, "One day...countless calories!"  "Gobble 'til ya wobble!"

Have a happy day!

Tuesday Inspiration 10/4/11

Hello and happy Tuesday! October is my all time favorite month of the year. The colors of the leaves are changing and it is so beautiful what nature can do! The colors I used on my card are inspired by some of the colors I have been seeing.

This image, Penguin Doodle, from 2 Cute Rubber Stamps was so fun to play with! You could stamp any sentiment and it looks like
the penguin is writing it. A great image for anybody! Don't forget 2 Cute has extended their stamp sale until Friday the 8th. Be sure to stop by here and get yours now!

See my blog for more information.

Have a very happy day and Happy Stamping!

Monday Afternoon Inspiration

A bit of Monday inspiration in the afternoon.  Had a busy weekend and a bit under the weather yesterday.  I love this bear image, he's called Pumpkin bear and you can purchase him here.  

I hope this adds a bit of inspiration to your week, and wishing you all a great week to come.  All I can say is I'm glad Monday only comes once a week, hehe

Sunday Inspiration

Hi there!  I've been absent for a little while with my internet being down and getting the flu, but I'm SO happy to be back!  I used the super adorable Mermaid and Friends image, which I colored with my Copic markers.  For a fun background, I punched a whole bunch of circles from my blue and turquoise scraps, then layered them on a piece of cardstock, and snipped off any overhanging circles.  It was fast, easy, and a great way to use up my scraps!  My hope is that it looks like the mermaid's scales!  :)
