Art Impressions Stamps!!

I'm sooooooo VERY excited!!! Kate with Art Impressions contacted me and asked me if I'd like to guest design for a couple weeks!!!! EEEEEK!!! Are you kidding me???  Well shall I say I couldn't type my reply fast enough!!!! LOL!!!! I ADORE Art Impressions stamps! Their whimsical look paired with their hilarious sentiments is so ME!! Any of you that have been around since I first started my blog using the Cricut to make cards, knows how much I have always loved making humorous cards. :)  I am in heaven every time I use one of their images and sentiments to create a card!  So here's what I've made to share with you today. I used Sylvia. She is SO funny! And I have no idea why, but the very first time I saw her, I paired her with this sentiment in my mind. To me, it just looks like she's having carb cravings....  LOL!

Be sure to visit the Art Impressions Blog every day to see more amazing inspiration from the talented design team!  I'm still pinching myself that I get to play along with them!!!  Thanks so much for stopping by to see me today, and hope to see you back again soon! Hugs!

Papertake Weekly Challenge

Hey everyone!! It's time for a new Papertake Weekly challenge, and this week Dawny is asking for Pretty Pastels!  Mine started out a whole lot more "pastel-y" then what it turned out to be.  But peach is (or at least can be) a pastel color....right???  It kind of pops when you mat it with black, though.  LOL!  We are sponsored this week by the awesome folks over at Whiff of Joy!  Here's what I came up with for the challenge today.  This is also the class card for May at Scrapbook Paradise in Reno!

Please be sure to pop over to Papertake Weekly and check out all the gorgeous creations! And then we'd really love it if you'd grab your paper and glue and play along with us! Thanks for stopping by to see me today and hope to see you back again soon! Hugs!
