Road trip

Here's a quickie card I made using more goodies from Torendi.

I used some Hurly Burly fabric and Decole Retro camera stamp.

I also misted the cardstock, though you can't tell from here. And I really need to learn how to sew. But in the meantime, I just used some staples. :)

The 'road trip' sticker is from Cosmo Cricket's Joyride.

Have a great one, folks! We've got visitors staying at our place so I won't see you till this weekend!

Torendi Second Tuesday Blog Hop

So I've decided to join in on another customer blog hop. This time, it's from Torendi.



Up above, the stamps I chose are the oh-so-adorable Hansel & Gretel story book stamps! They are teeny- tiny and perfect for mini or regular sized cards. You get all four stamps in one set.

You may have remembered how I first talked about story book stamps here and here.

What I like about Torendi is that you get to see unique imported products and stamps! Hope you have fun hopping!

Thank You with flair

Here's another card made from my left-over tags. Jenn from Torendi was nice enough to send me these stamped images from the sold-out Storybook Alice in Wonderland stamp set.

I was watching America's Next Top Model on my DVR last night. The stylist was stating how fashion should be fun and that you should never be scared to mix patterns. I thought this was a clever mantra for cardmaking as well!

Added lace for that extra flair here! :)

Used the September TE Key Ingredients kit.

Have a wonderful day!

Tea Party tags.

Good morning, everyone!

When we were on vacation, I brought some supplies to make tags for my friend's baby shower favors.

The party theme was an Alice in Wonderland tea party, and another friend was in charge of the favors themselves.




Some of the tags were made using the mini Alice in Wonderland storybook stamps found at Torendi. I was so disappointed when they were sold out as I thought they were perfect for the tags. Jen, the owner, was nice enough to send me some stamped images!

And the other tags were made using a notebook I got from Sanrio. They are the Little Twin Stars, and I just ADORE how they are AIW-themed! My preggo friend loves Sanrio so I thought they'd make a great addition!

I inked the edges and added some collage pauge to make them sparkle. Red bling was adhered and voila!

I'll be showing some pics from the party itself tomorrow!

Sun-Kissed at TGF's BlogHop Part 2.

Happy 2nd Birthday, The Greeting Farm!!! For me, this is where my love of stamping started. And I'm so glad to be part of their 2nd anniversary customer blog hop again!



I hope you all get to join in on the fun! After visiting my post, please go back to the TGF blog to view the other customers' posts! I am SURE there'll be lots of fun and creativity to see!

For my card, I chose a summer-y theme. I used this bikini-clad Anya (& birdies & sentiment) from the Sunshine kit.

The patterned papers & flowers are from Studio Calico. What I really love about SC is that their kits contain all these beautiful coordinating patterned papers from not one but many different companies! And those dimensional flower embellies are just too cool for words!

And I have to say that I also love these felt clouds I got from Torendi!

Have fun hopping!
