Hello, friends!

Well, I am late to the party, as usual.   The There She Goes Trendsetters have been celebrating TSG’s 3rd birthday all month and I’ve been stamping away and not blogging!  Bad me!!

I could come up with a dozen excuses, but none of them are good.   Simply put, I have to get more organized.  Wait, no… I need to get my husband back to work so I can get back to my normal schedule! LOL

So, today I’m going to share a bunch of TSG cards that I’ve made and not blogged about!

First up is my TLC card from LAST week:

The challenge last week was to alter designer paper in some way.   You could emboss it, stamp on it, just about anything.   I chose to stamp on mine and emboss it in white.

Have I mentioned how enamored I am with the new Fabulous set?  Gah!!  It’s amazing!

Here are my deets:

Stamps: There She Goes’ Fabulous, There She Goes’ Just For You (sentiment)

Colors:  Real Red, Summer Sun, GP White, OA Modern Housewife dp

Ink:  Versamark, Colorbox cranberry

Accessories:  1/2″ red gingham ribbon, red 1/2 pearls, slit punch, white embossing powder, oval nesties, white button, red/white twine, ribbon punch, swiss embossing folder, dimensionals sticky tape

Next up is a card I made for Sweet N Sassy’s Inspiration Challenge:

Here are my deets:

Moving right along… another that I made for last week’s sketch challenge (SC350):

This is another card done with the “no-line” technique.  I had one girl compliment me on my paper piecing on the cake.  She wouldn’t believe me when I told her it was colored, not pieced! 🙂

Next up is the card I made for this week’s featured stamper challenge (morningsun47):

Linda (morningsun47) is such a sweetheart.   I was so happy to celebrate her big day with her.  I didn’t quite love this card when I first finished it, but it grew on me quickly and now I adore it!

Here are my deets:

Stamps:  There She Goes’ Vroom

Colors:  GP White

Ink:  Versafine Black Onyx, copics, white gel, black sharpie

Accessories:  1″ green/blue plaid ribbon, buckle, sticky tape, dimentionals
