A small change and three cards

Hi, friends!  Since I'm a little bit busy with things at the moment, I've decided to scale back on how many pictures I show of each card.  The new number is one.  I will only show one picture of each card.  Oh, and a picture of any insides that are crafted, too.  This way, I won't spend my whole day editing photos!  With that said, I've got 3 cards to share with you!

Card 1~

For these fabulous challenges~

LIM: Humor

Perfect Sentiment: Make 'em Laugh

Artistic Impressions: Paper Piercing/Piecing

(I've paper pieced the banana peel.)

I've used a stamp image by Fiskars Fresh Fruit set, a sentiment by Hero Arts, patterned paper by K & Company, liquid pearls by Ranger, and all other supplies are by Stampin' Up!.

Card 2~

For these fabulous challenges~

Creative Belli: Flowers

Divas by Design: Tie a Ribbon

Word Art Wednesday: Inspirational Sentiment

I used an OLD stamp set by Stampin' Up! for my flower images, a scattering of rhinestones by Studio G that had been forgotten in my stash, ribbon also found at the bottom of my ribbon basket, a sentiment by Hero Arts, and all other supplies are by Stampin' Up!.

Card 3~

For these fabulous challenges~

CAS-ual Fridays: Red, White, & Blue

Card Mania Challenges: Spots and/or Stripes

The Pink Elephant: Stars and Stripes

I've used the Washi Tape set by Inspired By Stamping, a sentiment by Hero Arts, rhinestones, brads, and vellum from my stash, and all other supplies are by Stampin' Up!.  This card is going to be going to Operation Write Home.  I've decided that I need to make at least 5 cards a week and write them to our heroes overseas.  Hopefully I get a box done by the end of the year!

Thanks for stopping by to take a peek!  Hopefully I'll get to share oodles of cards now I've revamped my photo requirements for myself! ;)  I hope you join in the fun at these fun challenges, too!  HUGS and happy stamping, friends! :)

CCM: Humor

Happy April Fool's Day, friends!  I promise I won't be playing any tricks on you in this post, that's not really my nature, but I do have a DT card to share with you that is in the spirit of the day!  This time around at Crafty Cardmakers Suze (our hostess) would like to see some HUMOR in your project. Perhaps a funny image or sentiment, or you might just want to add some googly eyes. Remember, laughter is the best medicine - so have fun!

I've used a darling freebie digi from Melonheadz, a self-made digi sentiment, patterned paper by Recollections, rhinestones by Studio 112, glitter by Martha Stewart, and all other supplies are by Stampin' Up!. 

Thanks for stopping by to take a peek!  I do hope you'll join us and please stop over to say hello to the other gals on the DT as well!  Happy stamping! :)

New Tag Line

So...I don't know how many of you are "religious" followers of my blog, but I change my design and title...a lot...

Anyway, the other day, I was talking to myself (I do this quite often--because I tend to give myself good ideas!), and I thought, "I'm the GOOD kind of crafty!" I immediately chuckled to myself--I crack myself up quite a bit sometimes...

Anyway, this whole story is to explain my tag line: "Becoming the GOOD kind of crafty." I think it quite punny, don't you?

I hope you take the time today to realize that creating is NOT just crafts--it is as simple as creating an atmosphere of love in your home or creating a really yummy sandwich...

I hope you are inspired to create something to the BEST of your ability today! Happy creating!!!!!

Digital scrapbooking has become a hobby of mine lately, and when I came across an Etsy shop that had some HILARIOUS card sayings--I decided I had to make my own rendition of them. Because I like pretty cards. We go together like...take your pick! They are the perfect size for a 1/2 sheet card (4.25"x5.5"). Click and save--they're yours for free!!! Hope you have a wonderful day--happy creating!
