Pez-a-Doodle Friday and Card Patterns a little early

Hi everyone and Happy Friday to you. Firstly, Tomorrow is the big SNR Oh Say Can You See Blog hop, so don't miss it. Start off at Card Universe and make your way along the over 90+ participants. Good way to spend your holiday for sure. And there will be blog candy along the way, so keep your eyes open for "clues"


Today I'm sharing with you another real bright and cheery card. I don't often make cards for young girls, so thought I'd take a whirl at this and really like how it turned out. I used Studio G stamps and these little beauties are simply the sweetest. And so worth the few dollars. What a steal!!! I also used Memento Inks Dew Drops, which are the best little purchase, especially if you are wanting to try a new ink line, but don't want to pay crazy amounts to do so. So here she is, A Card Patterns sketch challenge entry to boot. And last but not least, some of the super versatile Pez-a-Blings. If you don't have any of these little square gems, you need to get some.

Pez-a-Doodle Wednesday

Hi Everyone and welcome to another Pez-a-Doodle Wednesday and my Mojo Monday card. Today I'm using a great stamp that i find so gosh darn versatile. This one is called Butterflies-a-Flutter and I have used it before. But would you know it was the same stamp if I didn't tell ya? For this card I used the stamp to create the background where the butterfly is perched and I created the butterfly by using a mirror technique.



Also you just have to get some of the Skittles from Pez-a-Doodle. These little guys are the perfect finishing touch to your projects and they come in Glittered and Printed. And beyond inexpensive!!!! So there you have it. I hope you enjoyed your stop here today. Don't forget about the Huge "Oh Say Can you See" blog hop on the 4th of July. With over 90 stops and some serious blog candy along the way, it will for certain brighten your Independence Day!!!
