My Favorite Things

Text Boxed Revisited

Hello....

It's August 1st already (good grief, where is the year going?!) and so, you know what that means....time again for another Senior Design Team challenge over at Papertrey Ink.  This month, Nichole has challenged us to pull out those Text Boxed stamp sets from wayyyyy back when, and give 'em some love.  I distinctly remember when this set came out, it was long before I was on the design team, and I thought this set was so, so cool.  It was fun today, to whip up a card using the set and pair it up with several fun products that have been released more recently.  By pairing newer dies, papers and accessories with older sets, it really gives you the chance to breathe new life into those older sets.

For today, I used the long box image with starbursts -- this image has been my favorite from the start.  But the fun thing is that I stamped the image in three different colors, on strips of stamper's select white card stock that I'd first die cut with one of the Half & Half dies.  I then trimmed the sides off of each strip, leaving a simple "bracket" shape at the bottom of each strip.  Buttons in coordinating colors (hawaiian shores, ripe avocado & aqua mist) were added for a bit more detail.

The "smile" sentiment, also from Text Boxed, was stamped on the aqua mist strip, using hawaiian shores ink.

I tucked a strip of Damask Designs patterned paper along the bottom of the card, which really allowed the die cut detailing at the bottom of each strip to really stand out and shine.

Just below the damask paper is another strip of white card stock, this one was die cut with the eyelet lace border die.

The rest of the girls on the Sr. Design Team have Text Boxed projects to share with you today too, so be sure to pop over and pay 'em a visit!

Stamp-A-Faire 2011 Recap

Hey-o!  

Just popping in to share pictures from Papertrey's Stamp-a-Faire event last weekend!  Rather than include all the pictures here in this post, I've put them in a photo album which you can view by clicking here.

 

There are lots of fun pictures to see as well as some blah-bitty-blah from me about some of the fun details that Nichole thought to include in the day, for each of the guests.  

Click the link to view ALL of the Stamp-a-Faire pictures.  

And in the future, you can find the photo album over in the right hand side bar along with all of my other photo albums.

It was a great weekend for those that got to attend.  For those that weren't able to be there, hopefully these piccies will give you a little taste of what the day was like!  I, for one, had a BALL meeting so many really sweet ladies.....it was truly an honor! 

Enjoy!

Friendship Card (+ a Pupdate!)

Hello there, Dearies!

Ahhh........I finally got a bit crafty today and it felt oh, so good.  Well, first let me back up a little and say that I spent the better part of the day a tad concerned about our little puppy boy.  Took him to the vet this afternoon and turns out the little guy has a bit of an eye infection....just a little virus of some sort.  SO, once I knew he was ok and we came home -- eye drops in hand -- and he sacked out in the studio, I got to work whipping up this card!

I used more fun patterned papers on this one -- they're all from Basic Grey's Hello Luscious 6x6 pad.  Isn't that green scrumptious?!  

Next, I stamped a little text background that also served as the sentiment for the card.  This "friend" definition stamp is from Hero Arts' Dictionary Greeting clear stamp set.

Lastly came that fabulous flower!  Both flower stamps as well as the pretty leaf stamp are from Hero Arts' Lotus Leaves clear stamp set.  I stamped each leaf and both the large and small flowers (in dark chocolate and ripe avocado inks) and then cut them out with paper snips.  

I added a pair of Papertrey's ripe avocado buttons that I tied together with button twine and tucked the small flower behind the buttons.  To finish things off and to add another bit of pop, I added some Hero Arts olive green gemstones to the tips of the large flower.

When you get stuck and aren't sure what to create next or you can't think of a great color scheme on your own, don't forget that you can pull out a pretty patterned paper and let that dictate the colors you use on your card!

Hope you have a great weekend!!  I'm looking forward to holing up in this house with my sweet husband and our puppy boy.  

Smooches,

P.S.  PUPDATE (That's "puppy update", and yes, I just made that up) --

For those of you that might be wondering, Win was an ANGEL in his kennel last night!!  We worked with him all of last evening on the kennel thing.  We brought the kennel out of the laundry room and right into the middle of the family room where we were hanging out watching tv.  We left the door open and let him come and go in it at will.  We fed him his dinner in the kennel and we also made a game of going to find treats (cheerios) in the kennel.  By the end of the evening, he was going in the kennel on his own and laying down!  (You should have seen us looking at each other and silently air-high-fiving each other across the room when he went in on his own!  Haha!)  THEN, we took the kennel up to our room and put it right next to my side of the bed with the door facing the bed.  That way he could see us and hear us and knew that he wasn't alone.  We also put a little oscillating fan in the corner of the room that I keep in the studio (he'd gotten used to it in the studio) and let that blow as well as create some white noise.  When it was bedtime, (after we'd let him chew on his toys for a good 10 or 15 minutes to tire him out a bit more) we put him in the kennel, he curled up, laid down, and went right to sleep!!  Success!  (I think I almost heard the angels singing!)  :)  He fussed a teensy bit a couple times in the night, but one of them was because he needed to go out.  (Baby bladder can only go about 3 hours max right now)  

Sooo....mama got to sleep in bed with daddy and puppy got to sleep in the room with mama AND daddy and everyone was HAPPY.  :)  Let's just hope it sticks and we can get a repeat of last night, tonight!

Stay tuned for more PUPDATES, as our little guy grows.  Did you know that he will double his weight in the next couple of months?  Ack.  They don't stay little for long.  In fact, he's already grown a pound since we brought him home on Monday!

Thanks again, for all the puppy love you all have showered on us.  We appreciate your tips and your concern and all of the sweet comments you've left for us.  

SUPPLIES:

Our Boy is Home!

Hellooooo.......long time, no chat!  I have a really good reason for disappearing for a couple of days.  His name is Windsor McVey and he is home with us now!  Bart took the above picture of Win and me at the breeder's house while we were waiting for our paperwork so we could take him home.  I was sooo happy to squeeze that little boy.

We took him outside right away to get him used to his new backyard (and let him go to the bathroom before we took him inside!).  These photos were taken in his first few minutes outside.

 

In case some of you have missed it, I have posted LOTS of tweets, pictures and even some videos of Baby Win's first moments at home over on my Twitter page.  If you've been wanting to follow along on Win's progress, click here to catch up on my tweets.  Get ready for cute overload though, if you do.  Don't say I didn't warn you.  :)

So there are a few things I can tell you about Windsor already.  

• He is way more motivated by praise and affection than treats.  I must say I love that about him.
• He takes a lot of little naps throughout the day....typically not longer than about an hour and a half at a time.  (So good luck getting much of anything done...ha!  And don't forget that the second he wakes up, it's time to go outside....so unless he's in the kennel you'd better not be far away when he does!)
• Potty-training seems to be going really, really well.  He's a smart boy.
• When he's awake, he likes to romp and play for a bit and chew on his chew toys and shake them around like he's killing a wild animal or something.  (It's pretty darn cute.)
• He's a bit of a roly-poly in that he runs up on the middle of his big fluffy doggie bed (think, "king of the mountain") with one of his stuffed chew toys and gets so involved in chewing that he rolls right off the side of the dog bed every time.  Cracks us up.

• After he's done playing and rough-housing with his toys, he wants to be picked up and cuddled.  Melts. My. heart.
• He can run up and down stairs if there are two stairs or less, but he's a bit afraid to tackle an entire staircase.  (Oh darn, you mean I'll have to carry him?  *wink*)
• He had his first shower and {short} blow dry yesterday just to get used to the dryer.  He wasn't a fan of either.  Which is why we'll continue with frequent showers to get him used to them while he's little so he won't mind them when he's older.
• The vet said to play with his ears, mouth, tail, feet, etc., which Windsor doesn't mind at all.  He's pretty laid back.  We do that to get him used to it so he won't mind things like getting toenails clipped, brushing his teeth, or when the littles come over to play. 

• He's not a big fan of car rides.  Yet.  I fully expect that to change pretty quickly!
• He doesn't (DOESN'T) like sleeping in the kennel alone at night.  At all.  He woke up crying every hour the first night.   That night, he slept in the kennel in the laundry room and I slept on the couch just in the next room with the door open so I could hear him and he could hear me.....except that every time he cried, I came to the kennel, stuck my fingers in the door and let him chew on them a bit.  The second night, I slept on the floor right outside the door to the laundry room (closer than the couch the night before) and after getting up and going to him the first time, the rest of the night I just talked to him when he'd cry.  But he still woke up and cried probably every hour or so.  Baby steps.  Today, we've worked on taking almost all his naps INSIDE the kennel with the door closed.  I'm hoping that will help him to sleep much better in the kennel at night.  But either way, I think tonight, I'll sleep on the floor right next to him IN the laundry room.  That way I can stick my finger thru the door if I have to, without getting up.  Though to be honest, today's naps in the kennel have gone pretty well.  So hopefully tonight he'll do much better sleeping in the kennel.

• He's just about the cutest thing since sliced bread!
• Today, we started working on learning "come", "sit" and "down".  That little boy has SIT figured out and he'll do it at random times when he knows you're looking at him and then he'll turn his head toward the treat bowl just in case we forgot that he's supposed to get a treat for sitting!  He's a genius.

• He follows us around like a little.......well.....lost puppy.  Haha.  It's so funny how he watches our feet when walking next to us, so he knows which way to go.
• He had his first trip to our veterinarian yesterday and was SUCH a good boy!  I mean, total angel!  And all of the nurses/vet techs that saw him are in love with him too!  They were telling us how they couldn't get enough of his puppy kisses and his puppy breath when they had him in the back....and that he was just so sweet and mild-mannered.  (We were a teensy bit proud.  *wink*)
• He's got the prettiest honey coloring.  Again, lots of comments at the vet's office.  :)

Mostly, I can tell you that we are completely and utterly smitten with this little boy.  He's a gem.  He makes us smile, he makes us laugh, he melts our hearts and he makes us so glad that we made the decision to get another puppy.  Riley would love Windsor!

We're also extremely grateful that God saw fit to bless us with this specific little guy.  We prayed that God would help us to choose the puppy that would be the perfect fit for our home.  No puppy is perfect, but we really wanted to choose the puppy that would fit in the best with our family.  It's hard to know which puppy to choose based on the short amount of time you have with them when you go to pick one out.  You know?  That's why we prayed that the Lord would help direct our choice.   And you know what?  I think we chose well.

I still have a Stamp-a-Faire recap to share with you when time allows but between all the potty training, the kennel training and the obedience training, I feel like I'm not getting anything else done at the moment.  (Though you know I'm not complaining for a second!)  Just bare with me for a bit as Win and I settle into a new daytime/work routine.  

Mostly though, I'd like to be able to sleep upstairs with my husband at night, rather than on the laundry room floor!  Hahaha.  So that is goal number ONE right now.  Win sleeping thru the night (or at least self-soothing if he wakes up) without me.....it's my number one priority right now!  

Say a prayer for us tonight, if you think of it!  :)

Much love,

Stamp-a-Faire Make-and-Take

Hi-ya,

I'll be heading home from Cincinnati today and thought I'd share the card I designed for one of the make-and-takes at Papertrey's Stamp-a-Faire event this weekend.  You may have seen this on Nichole Heady's blog yesterday.

Each of us on the Senior Design Team designed a card for one of the make-and-takes we hosted yesterday at the event.  The card needed to be easily reproducable so that each of the attendees would have enough time to get around to each of the make-and-take stations to make all of the cards we had planned.  Fun, fun!

 

I used some rustic cream card stock and stamped it with Background Basics: Newsprint in smokey shadow ink and then inked the edges with vintage touch tea dye ink.  I layered the vintagey-looking newsprint on a raspberry fizz card base.

For the focal point, I stamped a flower from Hello, Friend as well as the "It's your birthday" sentiment on more rustic cream card stock which was layered on a bit more raspberry fizz card stock.  Tucked behind the focal point is a 5" strip of smokey shadow card stock and a raspberry fizz button finishes things off!

This is a super simple birthday card that you could whip up in no time.  Perhaps you could even make up a little stack of these to have on hand when that next birthday pops up unexpectedly!  You'll be prepared ahead of time!

Have a great day, friends.  

Can't wait to share lots more with you about the Stamp-a-Faire event!  And I can't wait to see my hubby!!  ;)

Take care,

Iconic Images

Hello from Cincinnati, Ohiooooo!!!

I'm in Cincinnati today for Papertrey's Stamp-a-faire event and wanted to pop in and show you a card I made featuring the new Iconic Images stamp set.  

Iconic Images is the stamp set that Nichole Heady designed exclusively for Stamp-a-faire, however today, every person that places a $100 order at Papertrey Ink between 9am EST July 23rd and 11:59pm EST July 24th, will receive the Iconic Images stamp set with their order for FREE!!  

Iconic Images includes some really pretty images that can be used for lots of different occasions....I happen to love this bird on a branch.  A couple of my other favorites are the woman's cameo/silhouette and a lovely pitcher.  Just wait till you see....I think you're gonna like this set too!

I used a piece of vintage book print for the background and stamped it repeatedly with a pretty little flower image from Iconic Images, to create the background pattern.  The flower, turned sideways, makes a little "x", so it was easy to line up the points each time I stamped the flower.

I also used a Half & Half die on a bit of brown patterned paper from the Library Ledger stamp set and tucked it behind my focal point.

The pretty bird on a branch is one of my favorite images from Iconic Images.  I masked off the branch to ink it up with hawaiian shores ink, and then inked the branch with dark chocolate ink.  The "thank you for your kindness" sentiment is also from Iconic Images and a dark chocolate button was tied around the mat stack 3 layer with a bit of chocolate baker's twine.

Be sure to pop around to visit each of the Papertrey Design Team blogs today, as each girl will have an Iconic Images project to share with you.  You'll also want to be sure to pop over to Nichole Heady's blog today, as she's got several challenges and giveaways planned for you with a variety of prizes including the Iconic Images stamp set!!

Hero Arts & Basic Grey...Just Because

Hello there.....

I'm mostly packed for Cincinnati and had a bit more fun with some new Hero Arts/Basic Grey goodies today and thought I'd share with you.  Firstly, we have to talk about the patterned papers.  We're paper crafters, after all.  Who doesn't love a pretty patterned paper?  :)

All three of these yummo papers -- the green cross-hatched solid, the polka dots and the floral -- are from Basic Grey's Sweet Threads collection....the little 6"x6" pad to be precise.  Those 6x6 pads are so fun because all of the patterns have been scaled down.....perfect for card making.

(You can see the entire Sweet Threads collection here.)

To create that little sentiment label, I used Papertrey's Label Basics stamp set and Angled Labels die and the "Just because" sentiment is from Mega Mixed Messages.

Now, we must talk about that big ole flower.  I used 3 different flowers from Hero Arts/Basic Grey's Luscious Bold Flowers stamp set and stamped them in raspberry fizz and terracotta tile inks.  I stamped each layer on stamper's select white card stock and cut them out with paper snips, before inking the edges with distress ink.  Each layer was adhered with foam adhesive for lots of dimension.

(You can see the entire Hello Luscious collection here.)

As for that fun button, it's one from Crate Paper's Neighborhood eclectic button collection.  I threaded it with a bit of chocolate baker's twine and topped my flower with it.  

(You can see the entire Neighborhood collection here.)

Well, I'm off to spend a bit of time with my sweet hubs tonight.  I kinda miss him already and I haven't even left town yet.  :)

Hope you're having a great evening,

Roses Are....Yellow

Hello, lovelies....

This week is full of preparations for my trip to Cincinnati for Papertrey's Stamp-a-faire event this weekend plus lots of product design for upcoming releases.  There's always a to-do list a mile long to get products ready to be released down the road, so in those off weeks when I'm not working on the Papertrey Countdown, that's when product design and the tasks related to getting everything ready to be released happen.  A couple of weeks out of the month, my job is more paper-crafting focused and a couple of weeks out of the month, my time is spent more on the computer.  This is one of those computer weeks.  :)  

This week is also filled with thoughts of puppy Win.  We bring him home next week so I'm brushing up on episodes of the Dog Whisperer while I work.  We're determined to be good pack leaders.  :)  I make no guarantees, however, about being too lovey with him particularly when he's little.....I mean, who could resist his little baby face {wink}......but I'm also determined to do my best to train him really well right from the beginning.  It's gonna be a lot of work I'm sure, but so worth it.  I'll have to work on being calm assertive and hopefully I can teach him to be calm submissive.  Heeee.  I told you I've been watching the Dog Whisperer!

The photo above is of the flowers on our kitchen table this week.  My husband is a gem.  He's awesome to stop at the store on the way home if there's something we need, since he's already out and I pretty much never leave the house during the week.  Hahaha.  Anyway, he regularly brings home flowers for the table, while he's at the store.  Goodness, I love that man.  I'm extremely grateful for him.

Well, that's about it from here today.  I need to get back to work, but wanted to pop in and say hello.  Perhaps I'm stalling just a bit.....my to do list is waiting.  ;)  You don't ever stall when you have work to do, do you?  I'm sure I'm the only one that does that.  

Enjoy your day, sweet friends,

Papertrey July Release Projects - Part 2

Hey there,

Happy Sunday to you.  Hope you're enjoying your weekend.  We went to church this morning and are spending a little time relaxing this afternoon....we just watched the women's World Cup soccer championship game.  That wasn't exactly relaxing though, now that I think about it!  Sad for the US, but happy for Japan.  

Bart's in the kitchen preparing to fire up the grill.  Well, the grill's not in the kitchen.  He's just in the kitchen, prepping the food that he'll then take outside to the grill.  When he fires it up.  The grill, I mean.  :)

He's planning to make a cheddar stuffed burger for him (also known as a Juicy Lucy, in some parts of the country -- we saw it on "Man vs. Food" on the Travel Channel) and a bleu cheese stuffed burger for me.....we'll see which one's the best.  It's our own private little food challenge.  We should have a tv show.  Ha.  He attempted this same burger last week, stuffed with feta (what we had on hand at the time), and oh my stars, it was good!  Basically you make two flattened out burger patties, put a little pile of cheese in the center of one, add the top patty and sandwich the two patties together -- mushing the edges together really well, effectively sealing the cheese inside.  Then, grill it up!

There's a new burger joint here in town that makes a bleu cheese stuffed burger and I looooove it.  Mmm mmm mmm.  So tonight's grilling experiment should be fun.  

So perhaps you'd like to know about these cards, today, huh?  This first one features Melissa Bickford's Hanging Out stamp set and dies.  Cute, cute, cute.  Can't forget the Half & Half die cut kraft card stock.

Next up, Melissa's Flower Fusion #6 and Half & Half.

This one highlights Maile Belles' Background Basics: Vines and the Leafy Vine Border die.  And of course, Half & Half.  Are you seeing a recurring theme here??  Or half of one anyway?!  Hahaha.  

Last but certainly not least is Lisa Johnson's Peaceful Garden.  And.......wait for it......Half & Half.  I make no apology for my extreme over-use of Half & Half.  I mean, if a set is so good that it really can be used on almost every single card you make, then I think you just SHOULD use it.  It deserves it.  It totally earned it!  *wink*

(If that isn't a rousing endorsement for a stamp set, then I don't know what is!)

Have a great evening, dearies.

Papertrey July Release Projects - Part 1

Hi-ya!  Happy weekend!!

Just popping in with the first half of my Papertrey Ink July release projects.  First up, is Friendship Jar Summer Fillers, designed by Nichole Heady with concepts by Mish Wooderson......and of course, Half & Half.  :)

Half & Half will have a permanent spot on my work table now.  It's my new stampy BFF.  

I used the new leafy vine border die on pure poppy card stock, to create that little fring-y trim along the bottom.

Next up, Tag-Its #6, designed by Heather Nichols......this may be my favorite Tag-Its stamp set yet.  Love that little notebook paper circle.

 

I couldn't resist pairing Tag-Its #6 up with several images from my It's Official stamp set, including the fun ruler image I stamped along the bottom of the card.

The "Thank you" and "A+" stamps seen above, are also from It's Official.  A perfect pairing with Tag-Its #6.

Next up, Sweet As Can Be, designed by Melissa Bickford.....could the ice cream images in this set BE any cuter?  

I used my Cane Print Impression Plate on the background and then inked the edges of the card with vintage touch tea dye ink.

 

A felt ice cream "scoop" was sandwiched in between two card stock "scoops".  The card stock scoops as well as the cone were stamped with images from Sweet As Can Be.  A die cut doily (Doily Details Die) peeks out from behind the tag.

A Half & Half die was used to die cut some Damask Designs patterned paper.  Love!

Congrats All Ways was paired up here, with a little Damask Designs patterned paper and the sweet baby die.

What's not to love about a damask giraffe?!  Haha.  I used the Cane Print impression plate on this one as well.

The rickrack die and another Half & Half die were used to add snippets of raspberry fizz card stock to the bottom of the card.

All righty, that's it for me today, but I'll be back tomorrow with the rest of my release projects.  I've still got lots more to share!

Before I go though, I've got a couple of sales to tell you about in case any of you are in the mood to do a little crafty shopping this weekend!
