Have the best birthday ever!

Happy Saturday!

Are you ready to party this weekend, or ready to plop into the nearest recliner?  Well, these cute Stamping Bella critters are ready to party all night! In fact, it looks like they may have done that already!  Piggy looks like he has probably downed too much birthday cake! I hope he shared with his buddies!

Hard to believe that today is the last day of June already, isn't it? 

Hugs,

QKR Stampede Weekly Challenge - Anything Goes

Happy Friday!

It's that time of the week again.  Time for the QKR Stampede weekly challenge! The theme for the rest of the year is Anything Goes so that gives you a lot of leeway to choose anything you like.
I decided on Harvest Bouquet # 38501 for my card.  I thought it would make a great birthday card for any gal.  Grab your favorite stamps & dies & join in the fun!

You have a lot of choices when coloring this digi too! I decided to go with mostly fall colors and ended up with orange again.  I'm beginning to think maybe orange really is a favorite color & I've just never realized it before.

See you tomorrow with a cute pig birthday card.

Hugs,
Sherri

Chocolate is ALWAYS the answer!

Hello, friends!

Are you a true chocolate lover like I am?  If it wasn't so fattening, I'd eat it three times a day....or more! Who am I kidding.....MORE! You can never have too much chocolate! So when I saw this Stamping Bella stamp, I knew it was coming home with me!

I turned her into a cute birthday card, perfect for anyone who loves chocolate as much as I do! (No, wait.....there isn't anyone who loves it more than I do! ha ha)

Don't forget to stop back tomorrow for our weekly QKR Stampede challenge!

Hugs,
Sherri

Wedding in Pink!

Back again!

Another fun, fun wedding card. I love this Elizabeth Craft Designs Flowers Lace Frame! It makes a perfect card for just about any occasion!

Stop back tomorrow for a real chuckle!

Hugs,

Wedding in yellow!

Back again!

Today's card was created with a Precious Marieke Spring Flowers Square Frame. And the Sue Wilson Special Occasions Ornate Framed Happily Ever After.

Sherri

I want a pair of these!

Happy Monday!

Looking for a cute birthday card for your favorite gal?  Look no farther! The Tutti Designs Floral Shoe makes a fabulous birthday card! And of course, I had the perfect sentiment for the inside! "Just wanted to purse-nally wish shoe a Happy Birthday!"  I've had that sentiment for years and rarely used it, but luckily, I remembered it was in my birthday stash!

The card on the left was framed with a square and the card on the right with an oval, but I love them both.

See you tomorrow with a fun wedding card!

Hugs,
Sherri

Happy July 4th!

Hello again!

I don't know if you make a lot of 4th of July cards.  As a rule, I don't, but I found this Amy Design American Frame and the card almost made itself!  If you do send many, this is the perfect die for you.

And since the fourth of July will be here shortly, you still have time to order this die.See you tomorrow with a darling birthday card for your favorite gal!


Hugs,
Sherri

Another Thank You!

Hi, everyone!

Hope your weekend is off to a great start & you have lots of fun things planned for it!

Today I have a thank you card made with Tutti Designs Garden Background.  Simple but beautiful.  I framed the sentiment with a Cheapo Dies Cross Stitched Oval.

Switching gears tomorrow again for an early 4th of July card!

Happy Friday!

Ready for a fun weekend?  Why not take some time to make a card and enter the QKR Stampede challenge?  You could win some great digi stamps!  I grabbed Dear Friend # 56501 for my card.

My Favorite Thank You!

Hello!

What more perfect a card to share on the first day of summer than a card filled with flowers! This gorgeous Sue Wilson Delicate Garden Frame comes with additional flowers AND a couple of butterflies!

I popped up some of the additional flowers for dimension and fell in love with the look!
I also used my favorite corner punch in the corners for additional flowers.

Stop back tomorrow for the QKR Stampede weekly challenge!

Hugs,
Sherri

Thanks Ever So Much!

Happy Hump Day!

Hope your week is going well! Today I'm sharing some beautiful thank you cards that I made with one of my new dies.  Tutti Designs Flower Card makes a perfect thank you or birthday or get well, or just about anything thing you can think of.

I made several of these in different colors and love every one of them. I'll see you tomorrow with my favorite thank you card yet!

You're in my thoughts & prayers!

Hello, again!

Here is yet another version of the die I used yesterday.  What a difference a vertical stamp makes!

Tomorrow I have a darling thank you card to share.  Two of them, actually!

Hugs,
Sherri

Two for one!

Happy Monday!

We have a double post today.  Both of these cards were made with a Precious Marieke Spring Flowers Rectangle Frame.  I prefer soft pastel colors for sympathy cards.  And this was such a gorgeous die I made several with it.

I have one more sympathy card to share tomorrow and then we change gears!

Hugs,
Sherri

Embossed Sympathy Card

Happy Sunday!

As promised, I have another gorgeous sympathy card to share today.  This was done with a Jeanine's Art Garden Classics Lace Frame, Center Oval.  I had never heard of this company, but they have some gorgeous dies!  Check them out at Dies R Us!

I LOVE any die that also embosses! It always makes the die that much more beautiful! I may have to go back to their store for more of these gorgeous dies!

I have 2 more days of sympathy cards before I change gears.

Hugs,
Sherri

With Prayers!

Hello, everyone!

As much as we hate to make them, we all need sympathy cards from time to time.  I grabbed this beautiful Elizabeth Craft Design Flowers Lace Frame and that was all I needed!

I'll be back tomorrow with another sympathy card that I love as well.

Hugs,
Sherri

QKR Stampede Challenge - Anything Goes

Hello, friends!

What a busy day!  I hope you have already checked out the Dies R Us challenge above!  Since the first & fifteenth of the month fall on a Friday, I will be posting both challenges on those days.

I used Daisy Bouquet # 9201 for this challenge.  It just appealed to me for some reason and I thought it would be a fantastic sympathy card.

I'm hoping you will want to join both challenges! That would keep you busy for awhile and also give you the chance to win a gift voucher from Dies R Us and free stamps from QKR Stampede.

Be sure to scroll down for the Dies R Us challenge below since Friday has fallen on the first of the month.

Perfect card for any avid golfer!

The dies I used are as follows: Lawn Fawn Spring Showers, Memory Box Mini Golf Carts,
Memory Box Golf Club Landscape, and Impression Obsession Plane with Banner.

Grab some of your favorite dies & see what kind of scene you can put together! It's always fun to test your limits as you may surprise yourself with the fantastic card you  come up with!
