Mojo Sketch 111

I am such a slacker and almost forgot to upload this in time!!  This is using the Mojo sketch 111- flipped.  I was reading the kids the Dr Seuss book "The best nest"  the other day and so I had this set on my mind. :)   My base is so saffron and the dp is Cosmo cricket Earth love line- topped off with some yummy chocolate satin polka dot ribbon (PTI)!   Oh and the stamp set is bird watching from PTI!

OMG I think the weather heard me complaining about the cold weather and decided to send some BEAUTIFUL weather here!! It was 75 today and gorgeous and to top it off the Cincinnati Bengals kicked some butt today!! 

Relax and Enjoy the moment!

ahhh relaxing outside in warm weather sounds really good right now- it is cold here!! brrrrr, I guess I was ready for a warmer fall and we are getting a chilly one!  I had some strips of this dp on my desk so I decided I needed to use them along with a pacific point button ;) 

I am off to run some errands that I have been putting off until now.  Have a good one!

Chef Flopsey

This is for the MFT Guest designer challenge to use white as the main color on your project.  I thought I would use my new Flopsey, sweet as pie.  I ran vellum through my BS with the swiss dot embossing folder for a little texture and added a tiled floor for the chef!!  The release party with MFT is tonight in the scs forum and I can't wait to see all the adorable sets being released!!!  Hope to see ya there!!

Muffin for Christmas (mtsc46)

I can't believe it has been a week since I have posted!! Wow, how time flies!!

Our sponsor for November is Whimsie Doodles Stamps- this set is a digital stamp set, "Muffin for Christmas."  Such a cute sentiment that goes with these images!   I figured since it is talking about presents it would be cute to make the sentiment a tag- felt good to dust off those punches too! ;)  I trimmed the tags a little to make them fit a little better.

MTSC45- My first Riley

It's Tuesday, time for another sketch challenge and this is my first card with Riley!!    My good friend (Hi Susie) let me stamp this cute little guy- we have had our share of sickness around here lately so I thought I could always use a good get well card for one of the kiddos to cheer them up when they are feeling bad.

Waltzing with Evan

This is my entry for the week three of So You Think You Can Stamp challenge in the My Favorite things forum.  The theme is the Waltz.  This was a challenge for me because all the MFT stamps I have are the adorable little kids sets so I had to work with what I have. 

If you watched the show last season you know how short Evan was and I think it was Melissa he did a dance with and she was so much taller than him :) I did try to throw Evan a little height by making him stand behind her LOL!!
My inspiration for my card was a beautiful dress of the dancer had one that looked similar to this one.

It's time for our annual Holiday Hop!  Show us your best upcoming holiday plans for cards, gifts, wraps or whatever else you have up your sleeve!  With everyone's cumulative efforts the participant list will be an amazing resource!

 For Christmas I normally give a pack of handmade cards (about 15 to each) to my kids teachers.  This year I have three in school and I needed something fast, simple, and affordable to whip up a LOT of cards with!!   This CAS layout also allows me to use any scrap pp I have lying around!!
