Embellish Ric Rac Challenge


I know I'm supposed to be down here cleaning out and organizing my craft stuff, but I had to play along with this challenge! (Thanks, Karen!) I made a really simple card. I originally had three rows of ric rac on the brown, kinda behind the flower image, but just didn't think that it worked, so I took two off. I really liked this card at first, but now that I am sitting here blogging about it and looking at it more, I think that it is lacking something. But I can't put my finger on exactly what that might be.

Gonna keep this short....I can hear the baby waking up and I SO need to clean this place out!

Thanks for stopping by and have a beautiful day!
Supplies:
Paper: Crumb Cake, Chocolate Chip, Very Vanilla (SU)
Ink: Taken with Teal, Chocolate Chip (SU)
Stamps: Flower -Savvystamps, Sentiment-Impress
Other: corner Chomper, Orange Ric Rac, Orange rhinestone, Sponges, Swiss Dots embossing folder

Embellish Color Challenge

Hi!
Wanted to get this card posted for this challenge! I originally wanted to do something with flowers, but last night while reading in bed, the idea came to me to use these little houses. I think the idea in my head was a lot cuter than how it turned out in reality....does that ever happen to you?
And as I'm typing this post, I just realized that this challenge as supposed to use labels too! Oops! Can y'all tell I'm a bit sleep deprived these days? Kellan's almost 8 weeks old, and I think the lack of sleep is beginning to catch up with me!

Anyway, gonna keep this post short, I have a set of cards that I'm trying to finish up for one of Kerry's clients so he can deliver it to her tomorrow!

Thanks for stopping by and have a beautiful day!
Supplies:
Paper: Very Vanilla (SU)
Inks: Chocolate Chip, Cameo Coral, So Saffron (SU)
Stamps: Good Neighbor, Small Sayings (SU)
Other: Chocolate twill ribbon (SU), Vintage Buttons (PTI)

Atleast we don't have anything going on tonight.....and I can just relax!

Thanks for stopping by and have a beautiful day.

An Embellish Color Challenge

This is today's 3rd post, so keep on scrolling if you'd like to see the other things I've been up to on this crafty day of mine!!!

Wow! I have just been crafting all day! I dropped Cody and Dylan off at school and then ran Sam over to preschool, and was home by 9:45, and had until I picked up the boys from school at 3:00! Thanks mom, for picking up Sam from preschool and keeping him for the afternoon! I took a brief hiatus from the time we all got home until now, that all my boys are sleeping peacefully in their beds.....ahhhhhhh!
I wasn't going to make a card for this challenge, just because I found out about it today, and the deadline is like tomorrow sometime, but I came down here after putting the kiddos to bed and an idea just popped into my head, so I decided to give it a try! Here's what I came up with!
I'm really excited about red glitter right now, not quite sure why, but I had to have some on this card!

Thanks for stopping by! Hope you have a fabulous day!
