Joy's Life Design Team Thursday

Good Thursday everybody! I'm so happy for this week's DT project!!! We are being very patriotic and in honor of Independence Day I made this journal for a friend of mine's cousin who is in the service.  I though it would be good for him to write his thoughts while he's in the service and even pass it on to his child(ren) in the future.  So I really hope he likes it.

I used Joy's Be Bold stamp from the Mother and Daughter stamp set.  You can see all her stamp sets by clicking here.  I also used The Greeting Farm's Soldier Ian and colored him with prismacolor pencils.  I also added some glossy accent to the sunglasses.  The background paper is from reminisce and added a star ribbon and some rosette stickers. 

We are taking a break from the design team to celebrate the 4th of July so we will see you again on July 7th!  God bless you all!

Whimsical Wednesday Challenge #12

Happy Wednesday everybody and welcome to another Whimsical Wednesday Challenge.  This challenge is a patriotic challenge and you must use some bling, brads or buttons.  With Independence day right around the corner, I decided to do a 4th of July card and pay tribute to those that have fought so hard to give me the freedom that I have today.

I used two different kinds of 4th of July paper, one for the background and the other for the banner.  I used two different used some decorated rosettes that I had and star ribbon and added the bling on top.

Don't forget to link up your patriotic project on the Whimsical Wednesday Challenge Blog.  Have a great day and God Bless!

Spotlight Saturday

Good Saturday morning everyone! This week has been a very busy week, but full of fun and new hopes!  I guess everyday should be this way ah? :)

It's finally Saturday, so you know what that means! Time to feature someone else's blog on my blog! This week's Spotlight is Lovebug Creations.  This is a team of a Mama Lovebug and her daughter Kimi.  They are all so talented in many different ways.  Mama Lovebug loves to do wearable art and they are truly beautiful. Kimi is not only one of my besties, but she's also so talented in creating mini albums for any occasion.  They have both been an inspiration and encouragement in my crafting life.  Please visit their website and leave them some love!

Lovebug Creations

Every week I will be scoping around to see who I can feature on my blog. There are so many crafters and blogs out there with a wealth of knowledge and unfortunately like some of you I'm not able to visit them all the time, but I know they are there. So by doing this, I am able to give them the recognition that they deserve and perhaps a few more followers ;).  Stay tuned for next week's Spotlight blog and don't forget to share this post and leave a comment, you might be featured next! I hope everyone has a beautiful Saturday. God bless you all!

Girl Scouts Bags

TGIF my friends!!! I'm so glad the end of the week is almost near! It's been a very busy week for me in all aspects, work, home and crafting!  I don't think there has ever been a week since I started crafting where I had a post every day of the week!  But it's been a lot of fun and I hope to do more weeks like these. :)

The last two nights I was tasked with helping my daughter's ex-girl scout group and making cute little bags for the leaders to put a gift in for their end of the year party (which they graciously invited her too as she will always be part of that girl scout trip in spirit!).  They wanted to make it fun and colorful for them, so I grabbed my K & Company Girl Scout stack and pulled out my cricut, used the Bags, Tags, Boxes and more cartridge and made these bags.

It really wasn't that hard, but it was 27 of them!!!!!  Joy's Life Scouts Rule stamp was just perfect touch for the bag.  That stamp can be found in the Wild Life Puns stamp set.  You can check out the rest of her products by clicking here.

Hope you all have a great weekend and don't forget to tune in tomorrow to see who will be featured on Spotlight Saturday!  God bless you all!

A Sweet Quick Birthday Card

Hi everyone! I decided to pull out my imagine and try to do a quick card with it.  I was inspired by my good friend Tanya over at Scrappin KY Momma, who does quick and easy imagine cards a lot.  I figured, I really need to try this and put my imagine to good use.  So I decided to pull it out and use my Better Together cartridge and Pink by Design's Cupcake background stamp and this is what I came up with.  Added some ribbon, stickles and some glam rock pearls and voila!

Thanks for stopping by! Don't forget that we will have the Beach Party Blog and Explosions Everywhere blog hop coming up.  I am hosting the Explosions Everywhere blog hop along with my good friend Erika from Cricut Love and the Grand Prize will be a YourStory Photo Binding Kit along with winner's choice of Kich N Bleus Designs stamp set!  So mark your calendars for these two great hops!

A Friend Loves at all Times Card

Good Tuesday morning everybody! Today my card is being featured at Dee's Bugaboo Boutique in her Ruby Tuesday Scripture Freebie - Proverbs 17 v.17.  What I love about these freebies is not only the message itself, but the fonts and the design that she uses to make them so pretty to craft with.  Check them out, there might be some that you'd like!

Regardless of what a friend is going through, God calls us to always love them.  We can show them love, with a phone call, a prayer or even just a cutsie card (right up my alley!). So to all my friends, I will always love you!!  God bless you all!
