swapping ideas

I host the swaps on the A Muse Lounge. Can I just say there are some super talented ladies that participate. I am always inspired and get some great ideas from them. I was inspired by this card made by Krystie, of Cupcake Martini. Now isn't that a fun blog name....two of my favorite things.

 

I am not sure what's going on, but I have been using alot of purple. I don't like purple ;)

All products used are A Muse Artstamps.

Naughty or Nice!?! *amuse-bouche*

I know you have seen this stamp before, but I just had to make a card with it. I guess it's common knowledge to add 'in bed' to the end of fortune. I don't think I have heard that, but find it hilarious. I just had to make a 'naughty' card, but with the option of nice if that's what you like.

Let's start with nice first.

 

And if you are in the mood...

 

I kept the card very simple. C'mon the message says it all....you don't need much more eh?

I added 'naughty' and 'nice' from this set. The fortunes are a clear set which makes it super easy to stamp them just where needed.

Happy Monday!!

amuse-bouche...

As promised, I have another scrap page. I was so excited to complete two pages in such a short time. I have more ideas, but just haven't found the time lately. Remember this? I was so proud that I made a mini book right after our trip to the zoo,but I never got around to making any pages for his book. A Muse to the rescue again.

 

The Panda and Bamboo stamps were the perfect addition to my page. I can't wait to make more scrap pages using my stamps. I think I am finally feeling inspired.

Since I went to this exhibit, I just had to use one of the little warriors to hold up my page.

on the go *amuse bouche*

This *newly hatched* release is the answer to many of my scrapbooking requests. I have had a few ideas for pages, but haven't had the right stamps to use. The moment I saw these stamps, I knew exactly what I needed to do with this. I love that this release is a mix of stamps that can be used for many creative projects.

 

In addition to the new *tricycle* stamp, I used the Fancy Borders set for the road and the polka dot alphabet was perfect addition.

I can't wait to see want all the other *muses* create. Go check out all their blogs

Have I told you...

that I love the Solid Zinnia stamp? It's so versatile and I love adding it to some of the older stamps that I seem to forget to use.

 

I have a few more zinnia cards to share. Tomorrow, I think I'll share some new scrapbook pages with you. Yes I completed 2. It may be a miracle.

Have a great day

Happy Easter

 

Hope you have a wonderful day!

Here's a quick card made with A Muse stamps, paper and twinkle stickers.

Thinkin' Simple

Jennie has another great challenge over on the A Muse Lounge.

 

This card really took less than 5 minutes to make.

I have so many cards to share with you, but I just have to find time to photo them. I've even done some scrap'n lately (but I can't share those  yet).

A rockin' birthday

Becca turned 10 last weekend and celebrated with a very rockin' party. It was at a very girly place where they dressed up like rock stars (lots of glitter) and did karaoke. Crazy fun time I tell ya *wink*

 

I used my favorite new stamp to create a background. I used the rock star by omitting the hair when I inked it to make it a girl rock star.

Stay tuned for more ideas using Solid Zinna.
