Still going strong

Here is the sketch that Tracy R. created for the My Scraps and More Sketches blog hop challenge. 


This sketch was a breeze to use with the help of some great papers from Echo Park. The paper line was called Everybody Loves Christmas. I added some pearls to Santa and the little bird's hat. Rudolph also got a big shiny red nose.


Even the inside of my card is all decked out.

5 more to go!

And, yet another My Scraps & More Sketches blog hop sketch. I do not know what it is, but I always love to add circles to my cards and scrapbook pages. Jessica made a really cool circle card sketch. 


I used my Stampin' Up! punches for my circles. My cardstock is MME Halloween (Scary Sparkles) I just love the look that those papers together. My bling is Darice. The sentiment is part of the paper.

Off I go to to continue on. I am not certain, if I will get much more done tonight, but I will try. I just have to keep telling myself only 5 more to go.

Thanks for looking!

4 down 6 to go!

Another, My Scraps and More Sketches hop card.
This sketch was created by Michelle. A very easy one to play with.


I decided to create a Birthday card with some cute Simple Stories papers and stickers.

Another great sketch for you to try.

This one was created by Nadine for the My Scraps and More Sketch Blog hop!



This was a fun one to play with. I really liked this rustic collection from MME called 
Signature Christmas. 


The brown cardstock is from Recollections. I used Stampin' Up! punches to round my edges of my cardstock, punch the circle and the bottom snowflake. The top snowflake is a Martha Stewart punch. The twine is from my stash. My bling is from Daiso. 

Now on to the next card challenge!

It's a card making kind of day.

Today, I plan to create some of my fall and Christmas cards from the card sketches that the DT at My Scraps and More Sketches created.  Here is the sketch created by Tracy F


...and here is my take on her sketch.



 My papers are MME from the Dear Santa collection and my ribbon is from a bag of ribbon that someone sent to me. My punch is from Stampin' Up!.

Happy World Card Making Day!

So much inspiration can be found on the web today. Be sure to check out my side bar for challenges and manufactures giveaways. My Scraps and More Sketches is having a card blog hop this weekend. Each of the DT has created a cards sketch for us to complete. Just think, you can get a head start on your Fall and Christmas cards this weekend. For my first card, I decided to play with Wendi 's sketch



I made this cute Halloween card using some MME Blackbird papers . I fussy cut the witch and Franky and popped them up with some Pop Up Dots and then added some gold stars. This was a fast and easy sketch to work with.

Thanks for looking!

This was a hard one to scrap.

It's hard to sometimes scrap old photo of the people out of your pass. This is my ex with his grandfather. I wanted to include this layout in my son's album so he can see what his Great Grandfather and his parents looked liked way back in time. I do believe that History is important, even though we are not always proud of  our choices. With that said, Shirley created this great sketch for all of us to scrap with.




My papers: Stampin' up!
Sickers: From the dollar store years ago
Felt Ribbon: Recollections
Yarn: Bernat
