Super Birthday Boy

Can you believe it's March already?! 2013 is just flying by!

March is our busy birthday month- including mine! :) We have a lil' nephew that is currently obsessed with all things superhero and is turning 4 next week! I thought it fitting to make a card using The Greeting Farm's Amazing Duo!

I'm playing along with the Deconstructed Sketch (#91) too!

Oh Baby {Boy}!

It feels so good to be crafty again!

A good friend of mine added a little bundle of joy to their family last month and I'm finally going to meet him today! I just had to whip together a card to give him :)

I used this super cute baby boy image from by LORi Designs, and used up some scraps from my previous 2 cards

Valentines for the boys!

Can't forget about the Valentines for the boys! (See the girly cards here)

Technically this first one is more of a birthday card, but that's because today is my nephew's birthday too! I followed the sketch for the TGF Double Take Tuesday Challenge. I found a 6x6 paper pad from My Mind's Eye -Lime Twist at Marshalls that was full of fun prints I couldn't *not* get it! LOL.. now I just wish I got more than one :)

I loved the sketch so much I made another card! I wanted to make my little guy his first Valentine card! {even though in some non-Valentine-y colors}

1st Valentine

Happy {heart} Day!

For Maya

My oldest friend and I were pregnant "together" and our little ones were born just a day apart! It's taken me this long to get something put together to send to her precious little girl...

I remembered I had this adorable image from YNS (Your Next Stamp) and what's even more perfect is that the image and my friend have the same name!

For Maya

Isn't she the cutest?!

Wedding Bells

Just a quick post to show a card I made for my cousin's upcoming wedding!

I used the bride & groom image from By LORi Designs, part of their wedding invitation and also incorporated their wedding colors! :)

Mike&Brie

Wishing them the happiest life together! ♥

Year of the SSS-Snake!

恭禧發財! Happy Chinese New Year! It's the Year of the Snake... I'm a rooster- what's your sign?

I've been looking for a CUTE snake to use on cards and things for the lunar new year.. with a little surfing (and blog hopping) I found this adorable little snake from Deasy Designs! I knew I had to make my own "lai si" red envelopes again like I had done a few years ago (post here)...
Year of the Snake
Isn't he just he just the cutest!? (I was inspired by this!) Can't wait to use him again on some other projects!

Wishing all of you a happy and lucky year full of prosperity and good fortune!

You & Me

Hiya I'm back again and finally getting the itch to color and be crafty again!

I've transitioned to being a "Stay-At-Home Mom" since my last post and I'm absolutely IN LOVE with my job! :) Who can blame me when I get to spend my days with this adorable lil guy?! ♥


So on to the crafty-ness! I found this fun stamp set this weekend and was inspired to get inky during a naptime. With some surfing around I discovered it was a new challenge time over on the Hero Arts blog. I decided to go with the sketch and came up with this.
Lovebirds

& Just the card...
You & Me

I also made a few other cards- will post those later this week! Thanks for stopping by & being so patient between my posts! :)
