Easter Eggs full of love 43

Hi there! I'm so happy it's Friday because I have the day off from work and the weekend weather outlook for Phoenix is high in the 80's with sunny blue skies :) YAHOO!!! I pulled out Waltzingmouse Nestie Eggs and started stamping away.

For sketch inspiration, I played along with the Card Patterns Sketch 104:

Close up, you can see the shimmery glitter that makes the eggs appear as though they are sugar coated turning them into little tasty morsels of calorie FREE eye candy :) LOL

Thank you so much for visiting today - hope you have a great weekend! Be Sweet :)

Supplies Used:
Stamps: Waltzingmouse Nestie Eggs
Die Templates and Machine: Spellbinders™ Nestabilities® S4-309 Labels Four SM,  GC-001 Grand Calibur,  S4-126 Classic Squares LG

Happy Birthday JennyLee! 45

Hi there! Hope you are all having a great week! Here today to share a Birthday card I made for niece JennyLee who is more like a "little" sister than me. It's another CAS card of sorts. Not a whole lot of the extra "fluff" that I LOVE so much ;)

I pieced several patterns from the Making Memories Je t'adore Collection, added a bow, Prima rose and topped it off with the elegant Happy Birthday sentiment from Waltzingmouse Say it with Style.

 For sketch inspiration, I played along with last week's Stampin' Royalty Sketch Challenge: (I'm too late to enter, but I loved the sketch anyways :)

Thanks for visiting today! Hope you have a great day ~ Be Sweet!

Supplies Used:
Stamps: Waltzingmouse Say it with Style

My Apologies 46

Hi there! Thanks to those who stopped by and left a sweet comment or two on my Waltzingmouse Stamps preview posts over the past several days :) I am so happy to hear so many of you are as excited about the release as I am! Today, I have a CAS card of sorts to share:

If you visit here often, you know how challenging a CAS card is for me! I love to lay it all on thick! I love lots of embellishments such as flowers, pearls, lace, buttons, bows, etc......   I think the My Mind's Eye Lush Collection patterned paper is so elegant and classy. All I did was add a label from Very Vintage Labels No. 4  and the "My Apologies" sentiment from Say It With Style. For sketch inspiration, I played along with this week's sketch challenge over at the clean & simple stamping blog:

Not much to see close up except the popped up sentiment for a bit of dimension and the fabulous unique embossed edges that Spellbinders™ die templates are known for :)

That's all I have to share with you today Thanks so much for looking! Be Sweet :)

Supplies Used:
Stamps: Waltzingmouse Say It With Style, Very Vintage Labels No. 4

I created a SPRING themed banner using Vintage Banners:

I inked up one of the many gorgeous images from Vintage Banners using a S5-028 Nested Pennants die template to cut the images and layered on a lacy pennant cut using a S5-029 Nested Lacey Pennant die template.

Each pennant is adorned with a layered butterfly and little rose.
