The Cutest Umbrella.

IMG_7088-1

Good morning, everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend and holiday!

It's Karber Monday for me, and this post features Millie Umbrella!

I just love that adorable bunny umbrella. Leave it to Berenice to create the cutest images!

How's the weather in your neck of the woods? It's in the mid to low 70s where we are spending our Thanksgiving Holiday! Crazy, huh?

Paper Piercing.

IMG_7084-1

Hello peeps!!

For our challenge this week at Christmas Card Challenges
, paper pierce an image for your card.

I'm very much into chevrons these days so I thought I'd use that pattern for her dress :). Image is from Some Odd Girl.

Don't forget to check out the rest of the DT's creations! And, boy, I can't believe December is around the corner!

Beautiful Bride.

IMG_7080-1

Hiya folks!

I do apologize if you haven't heard from me. Alas, I have no good excuse except that I've been busy with life. That is, my family, my kids, my job... I hope you all had a nice Thanksgiving Holiday.

My son's preschool teacher got married last month, and I wanted to share the card I made for her. I actually really love how her skin turned out as I hadn't been satisfied with my coloring of African American skin. Until this time :).

The card has a lot of details but it is actually very simple to make. I hope you continue visiting. And I promise to catch up on your blogs soon!!

Dream Big, Harry.

Hello folks!

It's Monday so it's time for another Karber digi feature! This time, I have Harry Potter and I've included him in this birthday card for my Godson.

And Karber clear stamps are now available on Etsy!! And right now, there is a special promotion going on -- free shipping to the U.S. Check out the store here.

I've finally bought the Wizard of Oz set that I've been looking at for years!!

Have a wonderful week!

Double Embossing.

IMG_7074-1

Hi peeps!!

For this week's challenge at Christmas Card Challenges (#51), do or use double embossing!

*sighs* I am horrified to say that after a couple of years of talking about it, I still NOT have bought a die-cutting/embossing machine. I know, I know..you all are tired of me complaining about it, eh? :)

So I just had to cheat and use two cardstocks that were pre-embossed. Tada! Easy-peasy to my problema!

I used a bit of metallic chalk to make sure the raised parts showed through. And I used this cute image from Some Odd Girl.

Hope you get to visit the rest of the DTs! Their work is so amazing and inspirational!

Ta-ta!

This is way late!!!

In fact, this was a couple of the last Project Life pages I did. I think they were from the beginning of the summer season.



The pictures were from my phone so they're not the best quality.

I've decided that for next year, I am going to scrap more and make less cards. Just because I feel the need to document my kids' young years. They are growing up so fast. And also, because of the cost of supplies...I'd rather keep them in the family for a bit instead of constantly giving them out.

I have, however, a couple of DTs so I will still be continuing my love of stamping. Hopefully, I get to use my stamps with my scrapbooking too! :)

Have a wonderful day!

Christmas Leslie.

Happy Monday, folks!

I hope you are having a good start of the week so far. I had a weird, but good weekend. Hubby's away on business so I'm a single mom right now :). But life still had to go on with birthday parties and get-togethers. I am, however, now knowledgeable about how to call internationally from my phone! LOL!

Today's card features this cute Karber digi (Christmas Leslie). She'd be perfect for any Holiday card!

Have a fantastic day!

Good morning, folks! It's time for another Christmas Card Challenge! I hope you are all getting to organize what you need for the Holidays! For this week, the challenge is to create a card with a snowman!

Here's my take! And I used a stamped image from Some Odd Girl. These fellas are so adorbs!

Hope you get to play along!

From All of Us.

Happy Friday, y'all!

I'm super happy it's the weekend because I am off! Woot woo!

I just remembered that I had this card, and I never posted about it. I've had it for about a month and a half!

It is super simple and was quick to assemble.

Hope you enjoy your weekend!

Happy Monday, peeps!

I've got this cutie Leslie Photo stamp from Karber.

I love how she's carrying her camera everywhere, kinda reminds me of myself!

Have a great week! Hope you visit the Karber blog for more DT inspiration!

Trick or Treat.

IMG_6665-1

Happy Friday, everyone!

Hope everyone had a great Halloween! Here's my last Halloween card of the year.

The stamp is from La-La Land Crafts and this is the Genie Marci stamp. She isn't a typical Halloween stamp but I thought she'd look cute with her costume :). And aren't those monsters behind her adorable?

Can't believe this year is going by sooo fast!! It's less than two months from Christmas!

See you soon!
