QKR Stampede Challenge - Anything Goes!

Hi, everyone!

Ready for another QKR Stampede challenge?  Well, ready or not, it's Friday!  I decided to go with Digi# 24143 Doggie Bone for my card.  I thought this would be a perfect kid's card, especially for a little boy!


Love the happy smile on his face! Probably because of the size of this bone!  Grab your favorite stamps, papers, dies...join in the fun!  The winner gets their choice of some fabulous digi stamps!

Have a "dog-gone" Happy Birthday!

Happy Thursday, everyone!

Got a cute dog to share today.  Thought he would make a great birthday card for a child. 

This is such a fun image and so easy to color.  And with a few dies, it almost made itself.

Be sure to stop back tomorrow for our weekly QKR Stampede challenge!

Have a "dog-gone" happy birthday!

Happy Thursday, everyone!

Hope your week is going well.  Mine has been really busy.  Trying to get back all my files that were lost when my computer was hacked.  What a mess!  Thank God my grandson has been working on it and has it all recreated again.


This should make a cute child's card and was easy to color.  With the addition of a few dies, it almost made itself!

Stop back tomorrow for our weekly QKR Stampede challenge!

Another Valentine!

Hi, gals!

Are you groaning yet?  Even I'm getting tired of valentines! If you can take one more, then I can too! ha ha


Here we go again with a washed out color! They look bright and normal when I edit & save them but when I post they come out mere shadows of their real color.  Dang!!  Frustrating!! 

Back with a surprise tomorrow!

Valentines again!

Hi, gals!

Tired of valentines?  Or wanting to start some of your own?  I love the dies on this one. 


I'm not sure why the color isn't brighter.  Who knows!  Been having problems with these so it could be anything.  This is actually a bright red in real life!

Back tomorrow with another valentine!

Another Get Well Bear!

Hi, gals,

Yes, I know you just saw this same bear in yellow yesterday.  I decided to change this one to a red background and change the die for a totally different look! 



Switching gears tomorrow for a valentine!

It can also give me a chance to pull some favorite dies for my creations. These are among my favorites & they get used a ton!




Doesn't he make a sweet get well card!  We all have rainy days when thing aren't going well but we just have to push through them!  Hopefully, this little guy will help someone do that!

More wedding!

Hi, gals!

Yup, it's another wedding card today.  I'm on a roll making them now & it's hard to stop.

I love both of the dies I used on this card.  The frame also embosses which adds so much more to the card than a flat frame.  I've had both of these dies forever!

Be sure to stop back tomorrow for our weekly QKR Stampede challenge!

Happily Ever After!

Happy Hump Day!

Who doesn't love making wedding cards!  I adore them! I always wonder if the happy couple will save them as cherished momentos or toss them as soon as they open them.


This card almost made itself!  Two of my favorite dies and it was done!

Love valentine

Hi, gals!
How is your week going?  Fantastic, I hope!  Now that warmer weather is here at long last, I'm MUCH happier!  I HATE snow, winter, cold winds, ice and everything else that comes with winter! I'm much, much happier when I can get outside and enjoy the weather!

Today I'm sharing  valentines.  Yes, I know....it's months and months away, but since I'm working on 2 fall craft shows right now I need them.  So you will be seeing a lot of out of season things from now on. 

Maybe it will inspire you to work ahead on your own cards too! 
Hugs, Sherri

Valentines again!

Hi, ladies!

Yes, more valentines.  I'm on a roll with them right now.  I adore making valentines! Remember the days when we exchanged valentines at school and we all had to decorate a shoe box to put the in?  I can remember picking out the valentines I wanted to send and Mom buying me several packages to be sure we had enough for everyone in the class.  Wonder if the kids still do that now?  I REALLY hope so!



One of my favorite really old Stamping Up stamps!  I'm sure it's retired by now.  It's really, really old but I still color it up every year.

Love the cute image!

Elephant Valentine!

Hi, guys!

Yes, I know Valentine's day is a LONG way away but remember I'm working on cards for fall craft shows right now so you will be seeing lots of these and probably Christmas cards too!

This is an old, old Stamping Up stamp and is probably retired by now.




I never get tired of this stamp set.  They usually get used every single year.  You know me with favorite stamps!  

See you tomorrow with another Valentine!

Hi, gals,

A cute Hedgehog valentine to share with you today! This is one of my favorite Penny Black stamps & gets used every year!



Aren't they the cutest?  I never get tired of making valentines!  Yes, I know Valentine's day is a long, long way away, but when you are creating cards for craft shows, you do them all year long!

We all have that one friend....

Yup!  We all do, don't we!  That friend who can always pick you up and make you laugh!  I fell in love with this image and the sentiment just says it all! Look at the face on the last little duck to the far right!  He looks like he is holding his tongue but really wants to say something that won't make the other two very happy!  ha ha


Be sure to stop back tomorrow for our Dies R US challenge of the fifteenth! Hard to believe the week will be half over already!

I car-rot a lot about you!

Hello, everyone!

I LOVED this sentiment!  And I made the inside say "Some bunny loves you" to keep the theme going.


I used some of my favorite dies with this one to give it a bit more of a feminine touch! See you tomorrow with another silly card!

Save those candy canes!

Hi, again!

This is a penquin after my own heart!  He's got a really tight hold on those yummy looking candy canes!  I'd be doing the same thing!  LOVE peppermint!  Especially Peppermint patties!


He's making me hungry for peppermint now!  Dang!  The power of suggestion....
See you tomorrow with the lady version of that Plum Purdy snowman!

My favorite snowman

Hi, again!

This is one of my favorite snowmen of all time.  He is a Plum Purdy stamp and they no longer make stamps.  She was actually a tole painter and made patterns for tole painting.  Which is where I first found her! In past days, I lived to tole paint!  Did it every single night and loved it!


How fun is this guy!  And I also have the female version of him which I will show you later in the week.  I have had them for years and they still get colored every single year! Some things are just too precious to ever get rid of!

Hugs,
Sherri

Dance your feet off!

Hi, gals!

Are you tired of penquins yet?  I know I've done a real overload of them lately, but I wanted to get them colored up and ready for the fall craft shows.


These guys may be trying out for America's Got Talent or perhaps the circus! They are doing a great job of balancing on that huge ball of snow!  I thought they would make a fun Christmas card!

Hugs,
Sherri
