Wishes 20 Card Workshop using Game On

Happy Monday ALL!!!  I hope that you all had a great weekend!  I had a very busy Friday and Saturday with my 2 Scrapbook Groups on Friday and the craft fair that I was a vendor at on Saturday.  Sunday, I vacuumed the house and worked on laundry all day.  My hubby was so sweet and picked up the house on Saturday, otherwise I would have had that to do as well.

Well, I completed another set of cards using the Game On papers and added Cranberry CS for a pop of color!  While I was not as thrilled over how they turned out at first, I have to say that they have grown on me.  The stamps and embellishments are similar to my other 20 card workshops, just to keep things easy!

Here they are:




























Supplies Used: 
Paper: Game On Level 2, Cranberry CS
Stamps: Childhood Portrait, Thank You, A Little Everything, Thoughtful Seasons, Dainty Thoughts, A Twinkle.
Inks: Black, Cranberry, Grey Flannel and Desert Sand
Embellishments: HolidayButtons, Basic Buttons, Basic Brads, Cranberry Brads, Black Grosgrain Ribbon, Colonial White Ribbon, Cranberry Ribbon, Black Hemp, Black Waxy Flax, Black Glitter (non CTMH) Prisma Glitter
Tools: Wishes 20 Card Workshop

Thanks again for stopping by!

I hope that this has inspired you once again to try out one of these fun workshops in the Wishes Book.

Happy Scrapping and Stamping!!

Bryan High School Craft Fair 9AM-4PM

Hey ALL!!  If you are in the Omaha area and are looking for something other than watching the Nebraska Football game today, stop by Bryan High between 9AM and 4PM to say HELLO to me!  There are sure to be some pretty cool craft items for sale!

I wanted to share a few photos that I took with my newly purchased Macro Lens.  I am LOVING this lens and cannot wait to use it in it's full potential, once I take a class or two on how to.  For now, I am amazed at without really knowing what I am doing, I can still get pretty cool pics with it!

These are just messing around in my yard.......










Thanks for stopping by!

Hope that I have inspired you to get out there and look at your yard in a whole different way......on the MACRO level.

Happy Scrapping and Stamping!!

Another set of cards using Wishes 20 Card Workshop

Last weekend while the guys were all watching the Nebraska football game, I sat at my craft table and cut 2 sets of 20 cards using the Wishes 20 Card Workshop.  I assembled them that night, but did not stamp or embellish until this weekend.  I have only finished this set using Jingle and have 1 set left using Game On.

Again, I kept them fairly simple, some I did not even ink the edges!  GASP!!!  I know.....at first they looked a bit plain to me, but once I started adding the stamped images and added a bit of glitter and ribbon and a few other embellishments they started looking better and better.  I did add a bit of inking to the edges, but not to every piece of paper as I usually do......

Enjoy!  As soon as I finish the Game On cards I will post them as well.....




















Supplies used: 
Paper-Jingle Level 2 Paper, Creme Brulee CS, Juniper CS, White Daisy CS
Stamp Sets: Thoughtful Seasons, Thank You, Somethin' Special (Jingle WOTG Kit) Dainty Thoughts, A Twinkle, A Little Everything
Inks: Olive, Tulip, Creme Brulee, Juniper
Embellishments: Cranberry Ribbon, Twinkle Brads, White Daisy Grosgrain Ribbon, White Daisy Brads, Juniper Brads, Prisma Glitter, Glue Pen
Tools: Wishes Card Confidence Book

Thanks SO much for stopping by!!  

Once again, I hope that I have inspired you to try this 20 Card Workshop from the Wishes Book!!  I think I am addicted to making them.  I LOVE choosing the papers, cutting them, assembling the cards and then the best part is stamping and embellishing on them!!  Just like putting a puzzle together.  The stamping and embellishing is like putting that last piece of the puzzle in place......it all comes together!

Happy Scrapping and Stamping!!!
