My Sanity Depends on Stamping

Hello Everyone, its the 25th and its time for another FUN installment of the PTI Blog Hop Challenge.  This months challenge is an inspiration challenge.  We had to use the photo below as the inspiration for our projects.  I just love all the rainbow colors, and thought a baby card was in order.

Here is the inspiration photo:

On my card, I used the new Bundle of Love stamp set.  I cut all the colored strips using the XL RicRac die.  I stamped the stork over the strips and then again on white cardstock.  I cut out just the body of the stork and placed it over the strips (and where the body of the stork is on the card front).  I stamped the baby on white cardstock as well, and cut it out, placing it under the stork's beak. Last, I stamped the triangular baby blanket in green and adhered to the cardfront.

Don't forget to stop by the PTI Blog for the list of awesome card designers who are playing along today.

Enjoy the hop and have a great weekend.

Supplies: All from PTI: Stamps: Bundle of Love. Cardstock: White, Kraft, Chartreuse, Harvest Gold, Blush, Melon Berry, Terracotta, Pure Poppy, Scarlet, Spring Rain, and Hawaiian Shores.  Die: XL RicRac Border.  Accents: Rhinestones.

Here is a bright and cheerful birthday card! Look at that, I used Simple Circles and the matching border die again.  :-) I guess I just love the simplicity of this die and stamp set. It makes a quick, yet awesome design in a jiffy. This is a PTI Hawaiian Shores card base using the simple circles elements stated above, as well as Wonderful Words die and Wonderful Words Additions stamp.  Easy. Bright. Fun.

Have a great day!!

Here is the graduation invitations I made for the school- I had to send them to all the sending parishes and to all of the teachers.  It was so much fun making these invitations, and a little bittersweet at the same time.  I really can't believe how fast the year flew by. So proud of my little girl. 

The navy card base is cut using a spellbinders grand scalloped square die.  The white square invitation layer is computer printed and then cut using a spellbinders grand classic square die.  The circle border across the top is cut from the PTI Simple circles border die and then stamped using Boy Basics: Simple Circles in various inks. The graduation cap comes from the For the Graduate set and is stamped in Night of Navy ink.

Thanks for stopping by.   

Hey peeeeeeps! How goes it? I cannot believe its been nearly a month that I havent blogged. It has been so hectic around here lately. My little angel graduated from Kindergarten last week, and I was pretty involved in the preparations with the school.  And, my son is into everything, and non-stop.  By the time the babes go to sleep, I am ready myself!! Hope everyone is well.

Here's a fun Father's Day card I made for my incredible husband.  I have been in such an "orange" mode lately.  What does that mean?? I hardly ever use orange, and lately I have been using it on everything. LOL.

I used the following stamps on this card:  PTI: Boy Basics: Simple Circles, My Hero/My Dad.  The die cut word "you" comes from the PTI Wonderful Words die set.  And the Circle border die is also from PTI.  I used orange, red and black inks and a kraft card base.  

and......this is the most incredible husband and father on earth.  I. LOVE. THIS. MAN!!!
