Another Early Creation

Good Monday Morning!
Did everyone have a nice weekend? Mine was great and I actually accomplished quite a few things myself. I spent most of my weekend cleaning instead of creating and my space looks pretty good. It'll look even better when I get another Ikea case in here!! I pulled out most of my retired sets....need to go through my shelves again and possibly pull out more retired things. Will this ever end?!!

Since I decided to purge my space, I don't have a new creation for you but I do have another card that I made when I first started doing the challenges over on SCS. This was made for the Ways to Use It Challenge. We had to use background stamps on our cards instead of designer paper. I used Paisley & En Francais...I wish you could see the detail on this card---the Paisley background came out very nice!!! The color combo has become one of my faves especially since it goes so well with Valentine's day to me.

I'll be busy working on a little something today and hope to have it posted early in the morning. I'm thinking it's going to take me about 2-3 hours to do this project. Can we say sleep over girls?!!

Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you enjoy the rest of your day!!
TTFN,
Hugs,

Designer Envelope!





Hello Again!! I made this for the Ways to Use It Challenge over on SCS. We had to incorporate envelopes into our design....well you can't go wrong with decorating one can you?! I also used Taylor's sketch, she has an awesome challenge every week and I hope to be able to play more often!
You'll also notice that this isn't 100% SU! product. Explanation...I have awesome cyber friends that have given me tons of goodies to play with it and that's exactly what I did LOL!! The dp is from Imaginisce and it's so pretty and sparkly--I love sparkly things like the Icicle Stickles I decorated my tree with and the Sakura Gelly Roll Pen that I used to accent the red scallop circle. I colored my tree with my SU! markers and that gorgeous ribbon you see is Riding Hood Red Taffeta Ribbon---it's very yummy!!! The envelope is decorated on the front with a punched out snowman...couldn't leave that side plain ya know ;-) My finished card size is 5x5 and is ready to be mailed!!! Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a great rest of the day...if I don't pop on again before the day is gone :-)
Hugs,
