Queen for a day!

Here is my card for this week's Splitcoaststampers CAS challenge: Fairy Tales. I've been wanting to create a vanity plate with My Favorite Things Vanity Licence Plate set for awhile. I think that I will make this card in a variety of colours and put it together as a set of cards to give away. The possibilities are endless! Check out the challenge here.

Card ingredients:

Stamps: My Favorite Things Vanity License Plate, PTI Enjoy the Ride

Paper: PTI white

Ink: SU! melon mambo, versafine onyx black

Accessories: MFT vanity license plate die, Michaels Recollections crown glitter shape. Thanks for visiting! Melisa



Spring is almost here!

I found a little free time to make a card today for my SIL's birthday. I had fun watercolouring these tulips from Papertrey Ink's Friendship Jar Spring Fillers. Love this mason jar set. I've got quite a few of the sets that go with the jars.

Card ingredients:

Stamps: Papertrey Ink Friendship Jars and Friendship Jar Spring Fillers, Verve Enjoy Today sentiment (freebie with order!)
Paper: PTI vintage cream, SU! crumb cake, PTI DP
Ink: SU!  old olive and melon mambo re-inkers, versafine onyx black
Accessories: PTI tiny tags die, dimensionals, PTI ribbon, other lace trim, SU! damask embossing folder

Enjoy your day!

Paper: PTI white, SU! choc chip, unknown DP

Ink: SU! choc chip, certainly celery, pretty in pink

Have a great day!

Enjoy the ride!

I just got back from a fabulous week in Montreal with my daughter where we visited some dear friends. We had so much fun visiting the sights, drinking wonderful coffee (for me ~ yummy juices for her), relaxing, and people watching. We even squeezed in a weekend to Quebec City.

Here is one of the cards that I made during my Splitcoaststampers Dare to Get Dirty 37 challenge extravaganza. I thought the card went well with the trip theme.

Love these Papertrey Ink images and sentiments. The background stamp is one that my friend Maureen gave me ~ it made it easy to coordinate the colours.

Card Ingredients:

Stamps: PTI Enjoy the Ride, All Night Media BG stamp
Paper: SU! kraft, pacific point, PTI cream
Ink: SU! pacific point, versafine onyx black
Accessories: button, red twine, dimensionals

Enjoy your day!
