Last day Sneaks for Clear Dollar Stamps

This is the last day of Sneak Peeks for Clear Dollar Stamps. All the sets you have seen the last few days will be available bright and early tomorrow April 1st. And that is NO JOKE! :0) This is Martial Arts and also for a person that is hopefully getting their brown belt next week at testing. I sponged around the border and used some of the words for a background.
And my last sneak for you today is Fashionably French. I used some designer paper from KnC company and tried a new thing with the ribbon, I kinda like how it turned out. I also paper pieced the dress with some of the paper and layered up the sentiment on the tags.
Enjoy the sneaks from:

Farmers and a Skater Day 3

Day three from Clear Dollar Stamps brings us a fun little set called Fun at the farm. I masked the hay bails and sponged on some clouds for this little farmer. He is just too cute, the sentiment is darling as well. The animals in this set are adorable and you just want to hug them right off the card. hee hee
Graceful Skater is up next and such an elegant image. I pulled out the white and pinks for a girly girl card. I added a little jewel to the corner and some gingham ribbon.
Now another little something that CDS is offering is a New Line of Digital images. Whohoo.... Yes they are offering for you Digi lovers out there some wonderful designs. Be sure to check them out as well the sneaks from:

Bloomers, Bees, Bunnies and Scripture

Day two is here! Did you like all the sneaks from yesterday? If you are just now tuning in you are checking out Clear Dollar Stamps sneak peeks for April. This scripture is Proverbs 3:5-6. Now I had one of those days and this just didn't look quite like I had it in my head. I just finally had to call it good and walk away. I like the vibrant green ribbon and paper, but its missing something I keep thinking.

Now Charlie has a new set today its called Charlie Bee happy. The hive in this set is so so cute that I focused on it today instead of Charlie. But don't worry the other girls have him all done up for you.
This darling little bunny is from the Butterfly Bunny. I love how clean and crisp this turned out. I added a few jewels to the flowers and that was it. This has to be one of my favorite cards I have made.
My springy flowers here are from the Bless my bloomers set. I haven't used my spellbinders flower shape in awhile so I pulled it out for the bottom layer and added some piercing. The silk bow tops it off.
The girls have some fabulous sneaks for you:

Drive In's, Heartfelt and blessings day 1

Yep it's Day 1 of Clear Dollar Stamps SNEAK PEEKS! You will be seeing for the next few days some wonderful creations of the April sets. All stamps are available on April 1st bright and early over at Clear Dollar Stamps store front. Enjoy the sneaks! And to top it all off Lori is introducing Clearly Coordinating Cardstock line. This first line is called Summer Fun. Check out Lori's post here for more info.
This first card is using 50's Drive in. I have made what is to look like a record (hard to see the scored lines in the photo) and I added some liquid glass to the car windshield for fun. This is such a fun set.

This one is with a sentiment set mostly called Heartfelt sentiments. I kept this very simple with a sympathy sentiment. I really really like the baby blue with my sympathy cards I am sure you can see. Very soothing and simple.
This pretty little thing is with Blooming with Blessings. The umbrella in the set is what I gravitated to first since I don't have anything like that. I went with some memory box paper that I liked the color of. Popped up the panel and added some pearls. This is a little more glammed up for me but I do like how it turned out.
Now head on over to the girls blogs and check out the wonderful creations they came up with:

Tea anyone...

Happy Friday and Spring break! Or at least it is spring break for us. The boys are just as excited to have a week of fun and jammies all day as I am. Now I won't stay in my jammies all day.... But they sure want to. hee hee
I have a few tea related items for you today. I used the Lets have Tea set from Flourishes. First up is this little 4x4 card that is pretty in pearls. I stamped the sentiment and framed it with a cutout of a spellbinders shape. then I stamped and cutout this little cup and popped it up on a dimensional at the bottom of the frame. This turned out very sweet I thought.






This is a journal that I got around Christmas time for very little. I have recovered the front with the teapot and cup image from Let's have Tea. I added a pendant panel to the back and some ribbon with pearls. Very simple and looks so much better than the original.

Check out what the girls have planned for today:

Sneak Peeks for Clear Dollar Stamps start on Sunday so be sure to check back then. Have a wonderful day!

Easter Basket and tag

Easter is just around the corner I can't believe it. This year has gone by so fast already. I made this darling little Easter basket with the instructions over on SCS here. Man I had a hard time getting my fingers to work right doing this. haha But I did get it done and its totally cute.
I used this little guy from the Pippin Mouse Family for my tag. I punched out a spellbinders label for a tag and then layered it on pink paper and cut around it. I need to find a way to put candy in these baskets without the parents getting so mad that its filled to the brim. lol
On side note... I borrowed from my friend Heather this Wii game/video called Just Dance. Oh my goodness... Talk about a blast. It has some fun songs and we danced off with the twins last night for about 3 hours. I know I can't dance and well that game proved it. HOWEVER I did beat the pants off DH and the twins. So maybe I can dance. LOL
Thanks for stopping by, have a wonderful day!
