Birthday Boy

This card is for the Card Style Fun and Cute Challenge in the Moxie Fab World.  I used last weeks sketch from 2S4Y, of course I'm too late to enter that one, but I really liked the sketch so decided to use it anyway.

These 'fun and cute' stamps are from Lawn Fawn.  I totally love them, so much that I'm designing my boys' birthday party around them.  The whale is from critters in the sea and birthday boy is using Harold's ABCs.

Last but not least, I've got a little toot today.  I won the sketch challenge at Practicing Creativity!!  There were some amazing entries so I'm proud to have been chosen.  Yey me :)

Thanks for stopping by!

A toot for me :)

So today I have some really super duper news! (does anyone still say super duper?!?)

I made the top 5 Poppy Seed Bloomers on Lisa Johnsons blog!!  Yey, I'm soo thrilled!

I do have a card for you today as well.  This one uses one of my fave color combos lately, aqua mist and terracotta tile.  Can you say YUM!  The background is stamped with the damasky looking image from Vintage labels with versamark and I made one of Dawn McVey's scallop circle bookprint flowers.

Well, I've got a sick kiddo so I can't stay and chat, but thank you so much for stopping by!

Shoot for the moon

Maybe it's just me but some days when I'm looking around at the amazing talent in this papercraft world I just feel like I could never possibly be good enough. Do you have days like that?

Well the other day I was walking with a good friend whom I had given a card set for Christmas and she started talking about how much she loved the cards and that she'd love to buy some more from me. Maybe she was just stroking my ego but she said she knew her friends at work would want to buy some as well and the conversation just went on until she was planning my bilboards and setting me up for the today show, hahaha. Okay, maybe the today show will have to wait ::wink:: It gave me a serious ego boost and I stopped into a local store who sells beautiful handmade things for local crafters. I showed the owner a few of my cards and she loved them and is now helping me sell them!!

Well, short story long, I want to remind you to never doubt your abilities!! Shoot for the moon, if you will.

Which brings me to todays card, it's an older one, but it should be new to you and I thought it appropriate for todays post.



Thank you for stopping by and if you would, please leave me a comment about a time when you've felt not good enough and how you proved yourself wrong.

A little TOOT!
