I'll be MIA for a while...

I've been sick so, sorry, no pictures.  I do have some stuff to show you so hope to get it up. I'm away with my family for spring break so I will be away next week.  If I can, I'll try to space out my pictures to post a bit next week too.

Friday - Surprise! Easel Card

I made this card for a couple we know who celebrated their first wedding anniversary on the 21st. Congrats to Allylson and Bill. Two of our favourite people!

Take the time to do something scrappy today - and this weekend!! Jen

Wednesday's 10 minute card :)

Got this finished late last night! But posted this am. Here's your weekly 10 minute card. Very simple and quick using a few things from the Mini - Embosslits Beautiful Wings, Tiny Tags stamp set (CM), Sending Love DSP and the Choc. Chip Satin Ribbon. I also used CC cardstock/ink and the Curly Label punch. What you can't tell is that pink paper is glittered (comes that way)!! It is so pretty. And the butterflies come out die cut and embossed... so gorgeous.

I used my inspiration from this card in the newest SU magazine for demonstrators.

Take some time and do something scrappy today!!

I haven't gotten my Wednesday 10 minute card done yet, but I will. I had to decide between exercising and scrapping last night and... exercising won. Hard for even me to believe but... I made a commitment to everyday and since I didn't get up in the AM...

Anyways, here is my take on last week's Got Sketch sketch. Enjoy!

Layout Monday

Sharing my Weekly 52 Challenge #7 from Janna Wilson today. Finished it last night but while still sweaty from being shredded by Jillian Michaels... so picture to come. Here it is now!! (only 3 hours late but doubt many people noticed, haha) Hate that picture by the way but... you know what, my kids need to know what I looked like when they were growing up so I have put it in. Notice how it is B&W, LOL!!

Here's Janna's:

I'm off to get gel nails tomorrow morning (my day off and not one meeting!! YES!!!) as my reward for 20lbs off since September. I am actually 1.3lbs off that goal but had booked this early in the month and am just going anyways :) Don't closeys count?

10 Minute Card Wednesday - #5!

Another week, another 10 minute card I am impressed I got done in time - LOL! This card was inspired by a card done by Mary Fish (http://www.stampinpretty.com/) quite a while back. Her's was grey, green and cream. I wanted to brighten mine up and make it more springy.

It took me no time at all to die cut these leaves and stems (my fav Sizzlit, well, right behind the new butterfly embossing one!) It was two punches of my Trio Flower punch for the flowers and a quick poke with my paper piercer to deal with the brads. Adhere it all down and voila. A pretty, springy card!

Materials: Card blank, Sending Love DSP, Write Stuff DSP (flowers), Old Olive cardstock, Trio Flowers punch, Modern Label punch, Little Leaves Sizzlit die, gold brads, Old Olive grosgrain ribbon, Melon Mambo Classic ink, Short & Sweet stamp set.

Take the time to do something scrappy today!
