Happy St. Patty's Day!!!

Happy St. Patty's Day everyone... and Happy Saturday as well!

I spent a FABULOUS four and a half hours today at The Little Blue House for their 'Ranger Workshop'!  If it has to do with Tim Holtz... well, chances are... I'm in! :)

We created a total of FIFTEEN reference tags today during the workshop!  Whew!  Each tag features some artful techniques that were taught to the WONDERFUL ladies at The LBH  by Tim Holtz himself!  And... they were gracious enough to hold this workshop for us TIM HOLTZ ADDICTS!  I will be sure to tell you more about the fabulous workshop in a later post.

For today, I wanted to share a quick St. Patty's Day card that I whipped up not too long ago.  Isn't it just precious?!?!  I absolutely LOVE the look of this 'vintagy' card! <3

I hope that you are all having a FABULOUS Saturday and St. Patrick's Day!  I am off to have some dinner followed by ice cream with the kiddos... whose spring break is quickly coming to an end!

Happy Friday & {St. Patrick's Day Cards}!

Morning all!  Whew... another super busy week in my household!  Does it EVER slow down??? lol!

Well,  I have FINALLY gotten back into the groove of things.... at least it seems so for now!   I have been working on some St. Patrick's Day cards for a couple of swaps as well as some to send out to loved ones.  These first couple of cards I tried to keep fairly simple and quick and am quite happy with the turnout. :)  

I have also FINALLY pulled out my Martha Stewart Score Board, which I have owned for quite a while, and have began making matching envelopes for my cards.  I EVEN went ahead and made matching sleeves for my envies!  So proud of myself! lol!

Also, if you haven't already... please make sure to click here to enter my 'One Year Blogaversary GiVeAwAy'!  This giveaway closes on the 18th of March.

Here's hoping you all have a FaBuLoUs Friday & weekend!  I will be busy this weekend with my DD's dance competitions, so I don't see much crafting getting done for me! :(  Nevertheless,  it should be a busy, wonderful weekend... there's nothing like watching my baby girl ROCK IT on stage!

A Productive Day = Completed Swaps!

I must say.... I have been quite producitve lately, actually getting things done! LOL!  Ok, so not as much as I would like to get done around the house, but PLENTY done in my scraproom!  That counts, right? :)


Between Monday and Wednesday, I was able to complete 4 swaps that I am currently in!  That is a total of TWENTY NINE cards that I put together!  WOW!  I do have MUCH more creating that I want to get done, but made a deal with myself that I MUST get this house *sPaRkLy* clean first.  Below you'll find a couple of cards that I created for some of the swaps.  


TODAY'S GOALS:

  • To get our house in order and *sPaRkLy* clean
  • Make a trip out to the post office
  • Complete a set of 9 cards for a swap... using CTMH's NEW Florentine paper pack
  • At least BEGIN the double layouts for another swap
Here's hoping you all have a terrific Thursday and that I can get through my list of things to do!

Created using CTMH Sonoma papers as well as our Rock the Block stamp set.
