Fussy and Fancy DT Card--Be Thankful/Feature a Sentiment


Good morning and happy Friday! Today for our Fussy and Fancy Friday challenge, we have a fun one going one! It is to make a thank you or Thanksgiving card and feature a sentiment. I haven't made a card this simple in a long time! But it was really fun, and quick, just what I needed for a quick note to a colleague.


I made the inside simple too, but just had to use some DP! :-)

I hope you can join us this time over at Fussy and Fancy--go have a look at the other DT's creations! Beautiful!


I hope you have a great weekend! Lisa

A Deviation for Me--into Jewelry!

Hello! I went to a conference the other day, and on silent auction was this necklace and bracelet made by a lovely Seminole woman from Florida. I really though it was beautiful. Lucky lady who won the bid!


The bid went way past my budget (over $100,) so I decided on the way home that I'd make one for myself.


It isn't as pretty as the Seminole lady's version, but she's probably been making jewelry longer than I have!! I thought it turned out really nice, though. Well, more Fussy and Fancy Challenge Friday! Hope you'll visit me then too! Thanks for looking and happy stampin'! Lisa :-)

Fussy and Fancy DT Card--Halloween or Fall!


Hello and happy Friday! Today's Fussy and Fancy Friday Challenge asks you to do a Halloween or Fall card! Well, I love to make Halloween cards, so here is my first one of the year! The image is from Bugaboo stamps, a digi, and the paper is from Basic Grey--one of my favorite paper companies! 



I put the Glossy Accents on the "Boo" and Stickles on the cobweb. These stamps are from Hobby Lobby.


Here's a picture of the inside and the back.



I really love this paper!! I hope you'll hope on over to Fussy and Fancy and take the challenge this time! Thanks for looking and happy stampin'! Lisa

Fussy and Fancy DT Project--Try a New Technique!


Hello everyone and happy Friday! Fussy and Fancy Challenge has issued something fun this time! We want you to try a new technique! Hop on over to the blog and check it out!


This time, I tried digi scrapbooking! I've made several pages over the last few weeks and have really enjoyed it. I have so many family photos it seems I can never keep up, but the digi scrapbooking seems to make it easier. Wondering how to get started in digi scrapbooking? I will share the forum that I found that has really helped me. It is called Gotta Pixel, and the ladies there are very friendly and helpful. Just make an account and hop on and introduce yourself. They have challenges and a store and just a bunch of fun stuff!


The digi kit that I used for my scrapbook page today is:



It was really a fun kit to work with, and lots of nice possibilities, so I know I'll use it again.

I hope you have a few minutes to join us over at Fussy and Fancy this time! Thanks for looking and happy stampin'! Lisa

Creative Inspirations DT Project--Back to School!


Hello everyone! Today at Creative Inspriations, our challenge is Summertime!

Check it out here:

I've used a Stampavie stamp with my My Mind's Eye Gertie papers. To me, the primary colors say back to school, and when I think I back to school, I can't help but think of one-room school houses. These kids look like they've just finished their lunch from their lunch pails and are sharing their McGuffy's reader.



I hope you'll check our and try our challenge this time, particularly because we are sponsored by the wonderful Simon Says Stamp--they are giving us a $10 gift certificate as a prize!




A couple more pix and I'll leave you to go check out the challenge and make your own back to school project! Thanks for looking and happy stampin'! Lisa :-)
