melon & aqua

Last month, I sat down to create something fun for Papertrey Ink's Blog Hop and as I began to stamp, I realized it was the 26th!  (I had just spent 10 days @ UCD with my husband, and of course as soon as he was released from the hospital, I was ready to do a little stampin'!  Oh, well - I sure enjoyed browsing everyone else's posts!!!)

three/thirds

Here's another mini for my office stash . . . I used three background stamps, and 3 flag in 3 different colors (the card size is even 3 1/4" x 3 1/4")



 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
stamps:  papertrey ink, stampin' up
papers:  stampin' up
embellishments:  toothpicks


off the edge . . .







I can't believe it's been over a MONTH since I've posted . . . if I could just keep my husband out of the hospital, I might get some time to be creative!  I'm crazy about this color combo, but I think I'm even MORE crazy about "off the edge" layout style!







 
 
 
 
  
 


 


papers:  papertrey ink, stampin' up

best one yet

I rotated the inspiration sketch for this little birthday note . . . and I'm having a difficult time keeping elements from spilling over the edges these days!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 










stamps:  papertrey ink
papers:  stampin' up, papertrey ink

no sew quilt

I'm SUCH a great big marshmallow for quilts!  This "warm and cozy" kind of project is perfect for a loving mother's day card . . .
