Glitter !!!

Hey there, just a quick post ... a quick and clean card that only took 7 minutes and 32 seconds to make. I made it for the Ten minute CRAFT DASH The hardest part was peeling off the backing of the glitter strips *it can be tricky* especially under pressure. Ok well I love the clean line and the pop of the glitter against the simple black lettering. I am going home Friday for the weekend and this card just fit my mood !!! Hope you like...
On a side note forgive the picture and its horrid lighting I need a camera... I'm tired of these gross pictures, any recommendations???????

Runway Challenge

Hey there, Okay so I am thrilled that I have been steadily blogging for a few weeks now. I am back in my groove. I just recently received my new Ice skates... they are sooo pretty I have to share.. here they are ---------->
 Anyway these beauts are allowing me to skate much faster without all the extra spent energy and the boots are nice and stiff which means my ankles are not over working anymore but it also means lots lof blisters and arch pain but its worth it since that only lasts a week or so =)  Im really working hard to break them in since my competition is about 3 weeks away. Im excited , I will post some pictures of the competition soon.

Anyway, here is what I really wanted to share. I have tried another challenge over at the Runway Inspired Challenge blog. I really must say that I love this challenge blog. I think partly because I love fashion, but also because the pictures they use as inspiration are just my style. For this new challenge they are celebrating a fellow design team members babies birth and to help celebrate was an adorable baby fashion picture from Baby Marc Jacobs. How adorable is she? Well I hope you enjoy my card, its very neutral and girly. I love reading your comments so if you like my card let me know and if you like my blog FOllow me =) Hugs

I have been bit by the Runway Inspired Design BUG lol

OKay so here I go, I have been on a creative roll. I played along in the Runway Inspired Challenge, a few days ago and I loved the outcome of my card. However, I used pink and for some reason that inspirational picture screamed red to me, Anywhoooo admittedly red black and white are not exactly my favorite color combination, but I must say I definitely appreciate that color pallet much more now that I have created so many new cards using it. I hope you all like them. They are ALLLL so different but I had tons of fun making them , and hope you enjoy them too!

Bammm there you have it I made four mini 4x4 cards in a short amt of time and conquered my fear of red black and white haha

Two for One!

Good Afternoon!!!! Guess what? Today I have made two cards !!! It was just that kind of day. I have no clue but for some weird reason I am in the happiest of moods. Now granted I am always pretty much a very happy person , but the last few days have been especially stressful. I have a competition this Friday and I don't feel so ready (stamina wise) not because I haven't been working hard but because I was off the ice for so long and only two days ago resumed spinning... Anyway I think I had a break down yest. because the night before I found out my doggy needs to get some xrays under sedation for his arm they think he has a fracture =( and then to top it off yest evening I had a very rough skate.. Today I dropped my doggy off when I left I felt so sad for him he looked terrified , and now as I sit in my room I feel empty normally hes staring at me on my bed or sitting behind me on my chair. Either way, I decided I had two options 1) self pitty 2) get over it . I chose to get over it... so I browsed some amazing blogs and blog challenges found some inspiration and made two cards. Oh and Jamming to all sorts of mixed music really helps too: right about now... I have heard the banjo, jammed to Jamaican ..rocked out and now am feeling the Latin vibes. Hahah okay no more crazy rambling from this gal. Here are my cards.


The first Card I made was inspired by two challenges, for some reason they just meshed well. The layout is from the Unscripted sketches blog, and the design inspiration came form the Runway Inspired Challenge . Go and check out their awesome sites!

My second card is for the TEN MINUTE Craft Dash... I was in such a crafty mood I made my quickest card to date ! I made this cutie in just 4 minutes and 31 Seconds!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is an ultimate record for me... I think It was really easy because I used pretty much the same supplies as in the first card, only with different colors. I love love love love it. I hope you love it too.
