7 Kids Recipe- Wedding Card

Lisa — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 15:02:35 +0000

Happy first day of September. Woohoo! Jacket weather is on the way. A bunch of fabulous holidays are on the way. I am a happy girl. Anyway, time for another 7 Kids College Fund Challenge.

The challenge is a recipe:

1 image carried by 7 KIDS COLLEGE FUND
2 designer papers
3 flowers
1 sparkly item

The winner of this challenge gets a 20$ gift card to 7 Kids.

I haven’t used any Magnolia stamps in forever. When I saw this Loving Bride & Groom stamp I decided it was about time to ink one up. I believe I messed up and colored there bare feet as shoes though. Whoops.

The new Magnolia Cozy Autumn line is on preorder right now. I think I may be hooked. Above are the two I am for sure going to get. I love the brother and sister. You can click on the photos to be taken to the order page if you’d like.

Thanks for stopping by. It’s been a pleasure. Join in the challenge. The DT love to come to visit your blogs! Please turn off word verification to make it easier for us to leave you comments too!!

Custom Carnival Invites

Lisa — Fri, 27 Aug 2010 19:27:12 +0000

I had one of the sweet ladies who order Mickey invites from me last year ask me to design some carnival invitations for her sons party this year. I don’t always say yes so custom orders since the Mickey invitations keep me busy but I thought this one sounded like fun. My favorite is the flag border. I used a Fiskars triangle punch and dew drops on it.

In other news there is yet another High Hopes artist. I haven’t seen her work but am excited for the sneak peek blog hop on September 1st. Ya’ll know how I love my High Hopes stamps. I just can’t get enough!

As we all know I am a DT member/affiliate for 7 Kids College Fund. I’m also an addicted 7 Kids shopper. Well they just received some Sarah Kay and Gillian F. Roberts Christmas stamps in. There are also some delicious new Cosmo Cricket paper pads. I want them all. I have issues with paper. I can’t seem to pass them up.

Blue Christmas Hippo

Lisa — Mon, 23 Aug 2010 22:53:29 +0000

Finished it. I colored my little Party Hippo blue, added some snowflakes, and made him a Christmas gift. I am so ready for the holidays. My holiday decor is screaming my name. “Lisa, get us out! Hang us up!” So I’ve compromised and I’m making holiday cards and projects instead. TFL!

7 Kids Strip It Down Challenge

Lisa — Wed, 18 Aug 2010 04:31:20 +0000

I used my new most adorable C.C. Designs stamp on my card for today’s 7 Kids College Fund challenge. I must say I am a fan. She was so much fun to color and piece together. The challenge this go round is to strip it down and use only 2 layers. I took that as 2 layers of designer paper.

Halloween Pumpkin Mickey & Featured on Etsy

Lisa — Tue, 17 Aug 2010 16:38:32 +0000

My Mickey invites were featured on Etsy this morning. Woohoo! Those invites are near and dear to my heart. I’m giddy there are others who adore them too. You can check them out here- The Happiest Place on Earth. You can check out my etsy site here too!

I had an etsy customer ask me to come up with a pumpkin Mickey for a Halloween party. They will be made into cupcake toppers and gift tags. I hand drew and cut out the pumpkin center, stem, and leave. What do you think?
