Oh wait, wait! Sorry I am not spilling it just yet, you will have to read the whole post to find out HAHAHA! Don't worry I am too tired to ramble for as log as usual.

So here is my super simple card that seriously took me a few minutes to make as per the color map above! Great Colors Maria! (not to mention I could totally see this color combo substituting the Spring Rain with Sweet Blush. Wouldn't that be cute?!)

OK so the announcements:

Supplies: All products from Papertrey Ink: Ripe Avocado & Vintage Cream card stock, Dark Chocolate, Spring Rain & Ripe Avocado Perfect Match Ink, Dark Chocolate, Vintage Cream & Spring Rain Twill Ribbon.
2008 Holiday Tag Stamp Set

Papertrey Heart Tin

Oh how its has been sometime since I have done anything with one of these. I had a client contact me about personalizing one as a gift container for a lovely ornament she bought her 13 year old grand daughter. So she picked out the colors and I did this up.

The Papers are from Stampin Up, I do believe a retired Paper line. I also used some Papertrey ribbons and Stamp Set.

I personalized it with stickers but was concerned that they would eventually peel off so I coated the top and sides of the tin with modge podge (or whatever it is called...LOL) It turned out great.

I would love to tell you that my client loved it, however we were not able to meet up at time agreed upon last weekend so hopefully soon. I also hope she and her grand daughter love it!!

Thanks for stopping in, See you again soon.

A Christmas Gift

Just a SUPER short post to share some pictures of a couple of card kits for a customer in her Christmas colors. I think it turned out great and she loves it. These are the verve poinsettia stamps and made the box with Lauren Meader's All Wrapped Up template.....I love them and my Customer did too!

I also wanted to apologize for my lack in posting lately. I have been swamped with Christmas projects (all of which I really do plan in sharing eventually) and I am also working part time for Christmas to help out my old employer. This is the 3rd time I have worked for her and it is such a blast but definitely a glimpse of a reminder as to why I enjoy being able to stay home and do cards and web design for work instead!!!!

Loonie Stampers Challenge #17 & a Prize!!!!

For this week's challenge Dee chose our colors, Plum Pudding, Vintage Cream, Ocean Tides, and Kraft with no stamp restrictions. Cool Combo!! So what is the rest of the scoop? Play along with us this week, Post it on your blog or in your online Gallery and link us in the comment section to let us know you played. We are going to select a winner from all the participants. The Candy can be seen on Dee's Blog!!

For my card I kept it pretty simple and was happy with the card until I stamped my sentiment. I stamped it in Ocean Tides and it was like stamping into water so I pressed a napkin into the top of it and stamped the sentiment again but did not have it quite lined up...oops! Still, I do like the card and definitely Love the combo, which is great considering I do not even like purple! Oh and don't forget to visit the girls before you go make your own card for Candy!

WENDY CHAR REGAN DEE MARIA

As you can see I most definitely made this card at the last minute considering you can still see the un dried glue beneath the buttons....LOL My apologies. It has been a long day. So I also leave you with this wonderful picture of what my craft room looks like after rushing to make this card!
