Another Pink Card

I created this card for the StampTV layout challenge. I really like the way it turned out. I used SU It's a Stretch and colored the image with my Copic markers.

"Kissing Technique"

This is the card that I submitted for the StampTV challenge for the Kissing technique. I couldn't find a big solid stamp to "kiss" with a background image stamp so I used the SU Darling Dots Hostess Set with a plaid background stamp. I am into spring mode so I was looking for bright sunny colors: hence, glorious green and yo yo yellow. I think this is the first time I used the Cuttlebug birthday embossing folder, it really stands out on the whisper white cardstock.

Pink Pirouette

I actually love the way this card came out. It looks so delicate and creamy to me! I used pink pirouette cardstock and ribbon. I used my scor pal on the base of my card to create a diagonal grid design. Stamp set is SU Fifth Ave Floral. I have been working on some challenges for Stamp TV. Check it out. I will post those later.

Mellow Yellow


I wanted to create something bright: so here it is. I am also having fun playing with my new scor-pal, that is how I did the raised lines along the edges. The stamp set is Fifth Ave Floral, having fun with that too! Watch for more cards using this set in different colors and scor pal designs as well. Stay warm. When will the snow be gone???

Cooper and Bleu

Cooper and Bleu had a great time playing last night.

White Again!


Cooper went to the groomers on Friday. They did a beautiful job: he went in gray and came out white. Tonight he has a play date with Bleu,his Cavalier friend. They haven't seen each other in a long time. He can't wait to go.
I guess another storm is on its way. I don't know why I keep shoveling the driveway, but I really want it down to blacktop, not layers of ice!

Cooper at the Dining Room Table


Cooper wants to know where his food is. He made himself very comfortable at the dining room table at Pat and Leo's. We were celebrating Anthony's birthday with a lavish dinner.

New stamp


At school we had Secret Cupids. One day my secret cupid gave me this stamp as well as a lot of other goodies. Of course, as soon as I got home that night I had to play with my new stamp. I used markers to color the stamp and had to use a Cuttlebug folder to give some dimension to the card. A big brown bow tops it off.

Does this look comforable?


This is Cooper sleeping in his little bed. He used to fill only half of it. Now he spills out the sides. He does like to curl up and snuggle in it. However, this day he has his head dangling out! Do you think he is comfortable?

Who's a tired Puppy?


I guess the mile walk along Darling Road was just too much for Cooper and Jana. We walked in the house and they passed out on the couch! Sweet dreams!!!

Cuttlebug and Nestabilities


I had my Big Shot working overtime on this card. I embossed the Vanilla cardstock with two embossing folders. I used two nestabilities die cuts for the oval and scalloped ovals. I slit a notch for the ribbon and tied a bow. The stamp set is Bird on a Branch.

Branch Out

Posted by PicasaI really like the way this card turned out. I am trying to think Spring with buds on the trees and birds singing. Just love the tire swing. Six more weeks??? At least the temperature is getting above freezing.

Cooper teases his cousins


Cooper's cousins, Sofi and Sully, came for a visit Sunday night. Cooper hadn't seen them in six weeks because of his leg injury. We gave all the doggies some bones to keep them occupied so they wouldn't play too roughly. It was a relatively warm day so they had their bones on the front porch. When we let them in Cooper still had a bone which he taunted Sofi and Sully with. He was very sad when they went home! even though he teased them the entire time they were visiting.

One tired puppy

Poor Cooper. After a vigorous walk, he is exhausted. He hasn't had much exercise, because of his accident and now we are slowly getting back to walking. It also has been freezing. I am hoping to get some more stamping done this weekend.

Nap Time


After a hard day at the mines with my fifth grade class
I come home to find Anthony and Cooper snoozing on
the recliner. Cooper gave me a kiss, but went back to
nap!

The Momma card and the baby card

Happy Ground Hog's Day
I decided to make a little card and used the scalloped envelope die for the Big Shot. I'm still working with Kiwi Kiss and the Urban Oasis Designer Paper. Stamp set is Trendy Trees. Love the little gift card.
