Cards from stamp club.

Black and white! A lot of fun! Check out these cards!

Card #92 - This is my favorite embossed die cut butterflies from Stampin Up!

Card #91 - Simple and beautiful!

Card #90 - The tower is embossed with white embossing powder! SO cool on black!

Card #89 - I used a crimper for the first time. Pretty cool.

Card #86, #87, and #88

You can't see in the photo, but these flower pots are cut out and aged with distressing ink. The flowers are from a new stamp set from fiskars with the rubber stamp that sticks to clear blocks. They are super sticky and I love them. I am glad that they have figured out how to do the traditional rubber stamps with clear blocks.

Card #88 - Inspired by flower pots and Mother's Day

Card #87 - Card inspired by the EASTER BUNNY and pretty plaid paper.

Card #86- Card inspired by the EASTER BUNNY and my favorite layout.

Not giving up yet....

I am changing my way of numbering -- I will keep track of the dates in my book , but I will number them on the blog. That way you won't exactly know how far behind I am, but I still will. Looks like I have nine cards to put to be up to date. I have been sketching and am really just looking for time to make cards. After I get these few up, I have cards from my recent stamp club to post too. And once again, they are FAB! But for now, here are some of the things posted in etsy that didn't get over to the blog.

Card #85 - Great paper and a great layout. I just can't stop! I think I made 10 of these.

Card #84 - Card inspired by spring green glitter.

Card #83 - Card inspired sunshine and glitter!

Card #82- Does this layout look familiar? Inspired by a great paper find!

Card #81 - Card inspired by itself- HA,it just fell together, paper, texture and sentiment.

I figured it out..

I will keep my calendar marked so I know what day is what card, but we will now do numbers instead - then I won't feel like I am behind - GOAL CHANGE - Goal is now 365 cards in one year instead of a card a day --- or I could try 7 a week? Let's see what happens.

Card #80 - Inspired by simplifying

Card #79 - Inspired by butterfly stamp embossed in black on orange and then hand cut.

Card #78 - Inspired by the scalloped flat not card with a whale care attached -
CRICUT CRITTER!

Card #77 - Inspired by daughter testing my circle punch sizes - her color choices!

Card #76 - Inspired by the layout previously discovered and new paper

Getting caught up again....

I will have to come back and give details on these. And I think I will get to counting them instead of give them a date.

Card #75 - Inspired by a layout that worked and will be used over and over

Card #74 - Inspired by scalloped background and placing a card on top for a framed look.

Card #73 - Inspired by tree I found on my Cricut Critter cartridge - and SPRING!

Card #72 - Inspired by daughters pink and aqua circles ( sampling my punch sizes )

Changing my numbering format for now -Maybe I can get caught back up before you know it?

I have cards - They are coming...

Sorry about the delay - I haven't forgotten what the goal was here - I have just had a family emergency that we are coming out of. Dear son was ill on wednesday and had his appendix out on thursday morning. It was a tough ordeal, but all have recovered and dear son is recovering.
While everyone rested today, I made LOTS of cards... I will try to post them all to get me all caught up.... Lets see... that means I need to post... How many.... 7? Well, that is good because I have 9! Yay! See you in a little bit!

3 more cards... From a fab weekend making cards.

I just noticed that I HAD DUPLICATES! So sorry about the repeat cupcake and the repeat get well wishes... Maybe I can fix that before long. Here are 3 more to get me caught up. You know, this is hard to do - PHEW - And it's not because of lack of inspiration. Just not enough time in the day. Kids were down here today and each made some more cards - they are so good. Maybe I can post a few of those in a pinch? Why am I tired? It is only 7pm, but I guess that means that it is actually 8 with the time change tonight. OY! GOOD LUCK to all you on that. I will need it for sure!

Cards for tonight and for tomorrow. ( 64 cards so far )

I love when I stumble onto paper that sings! Just wish that I had more of it. These two cards feature the only sheet that I have of this paper. Pretty sure that it is FANCY PANTS. Please correct me if I am wrong. And a giant brad! TOO FUN! I am certainly bringing these guys with me tonight. The crop is from 6 til drop and then again tomorrow from 9 to 6. If I didn't have a birthday party in the middle of the day, I think I would stay all day. Wonder how much I can get done.

3.4.11 - Inspired by a single sheet of paper

3.5.11 - Inspired by the fun paper that I only have one sheet of.

Getting caught up and heading to a real, live CROP tonight!

I certainly can say that I was in a rut and it really didn't last long. I just needed time. I am surrounded by inspiration and ideas. Imagine that I have packed up and am heading to a crop tonight. OH MY! I had originally packed to do some scrapbooking. I have n0t scrapped a page in over a year. So, I spent days sorting photos and selecting paper. But then I remembered something that I had learned. That these two hobbies really do work side by side. SO, after every page, I am planning to make a card with the scraps. I have packed a TON of stuff. I am leaving out the ribbons and the buttons. HA!
