Mr. & Mrs.

Good Monday morning !

I made this card to play along with a few of the wedding card challenges, which I'm sure were inspired by the wedding of the Prince last week.  I was one of those watchers, just like I watched when Prince Charles married Diana back in the day.  It was a beautiful wedding, but I have to say my favorite part was the dress of the sister! Omgosh....LOVED IT! 

Ok, on to the card.  I used the Wedding Cake image from I Brake for Digis along with some traditional stamps from my stash.  Some Stickles, ribbon and pearls were all that it needed.  Now I just need someone

 I know to get married so I can give this away...lol.

Cupcake Trio

Hi Everyone,

What's better than a cupcake?  Before you say "nothing", how about three cupcakes?  lol.  I could always use a little extra sugar, especially on a Monday, so these little cuties make my day!

The Cherry Cupcake image is from I Brake for Digis and I simply copied it so that there would be three.  Piece of cake. (Or rather, cupcake ;) )

The doily is actually a heart doily that I bought around Valentine's, but I hid most of it behind, so you really can't tell.  Gotta use up those supplies, right?  I added the bakers twine because it matched the theme and the button is there because it's cute.  My husband will always ask why this or that is on a card.  Like everything has to mean something.  Sometimes it's just for cuteness and that's reason enough.

Bon Voyage

Hi Everyone,

I made this card for someone who recently vacationed in Hawaii.  I knew I wanted to give them a send off, but I didn't have any stamps in my supplies that fit the travel theme.  I was desperate and cheap, so luckily I remembered that I Brake for Digis had this airplane in their freebie section.  Woo-Hoo! It's free for everyone, so pop by and grab it.  You never know when you made need to make a travel themed something :)

I went with tropical paper, to give it the Hawaiian look, and the sentiment is computer generated.  I wish the chalk that I added to the image panel showed up more in the photo.  The blue stood out well in real life.  Oh well.

Spring Time Bunny

Hi Everyone,

Did you have a nice weekend?  I'm so thrilled to have left the month of March behind, that I'm celebrating by showing off my latest card made with a digi from I Brake for Digis.  I used the sweet Bunny and Flower Pots image for this spring themed card. 

 I wish I was British, because then I could use the word "chuffed" and not come off as lame...Isn't that the greatest word?  I really am chuffed over my coloring of the bunny and flowers.  I know it's not much, since there are so many experts out there, but this is one of my better attempts :) :) :)

Freddie had a rough day...

Hi Everyone! 

I have to say that the "Freddie" images from I Brake for Digis have to be among my favorites from the shop.  This one is named Happy Hour Freddie and he looks like he wishes it was Friday instead of Monday today!

I added a stamped sentiment and pulled out my neglected brads for embellishments.  I think they help to keep the card more masculine, since this will eventually make it's way to a guy.

Still, I had to add a bit of sparkle to the flies and popped up the jar for added interest.

Rugged Cross

Hi Everyone and Happy Monday,

This digital image from I Brake for Digis named Rugged Cross, gave me the opportunity to make a more religious type card, rather than the general spring like ones that I have been making.  I know my mother in law will appreciate this when it arrives in her mailbox.  

The digi was so easy to color, and I added some matching flowers and a sentiment stamped from my stash.  I admit to fiddling with it, and it shows up wonky in the picture, but I will fix that before I send it off :) 

Be sure to visit the I Brake for Digis store and see the spring time digis available.  Don't forget to use the code SAVE10KARIN for 10% off your purchase each and every time!

Chocolate Chips

Hi Everyone,

My yummy little card today has an image that comes via I Brake For Digis.  I was so happy to receive this little cookie, because I had the perfect sentiment in my supplies to compliment it. 

What friend would want to receive a sweet treat like this in the mail?  And, the best part...No calories! LOL.

The chocolate chips are also a stamp the I cut out and covered with Glossy effects and then used like embellishments.

Old Flamingo

Hi Everyone,

How was your weekend?  Mine was quiet, but I'm tired from having stayed up to watch the Oscars. Did your favorite movie win?  I managed to see almost all of the nominees, but my favorites were The King's Speech and Toy Story 3.  (I was sobbing at the end of that cartoon!) 

Today I have a card I made using this Flamingo from the I Brake for Digis shop.  I rounded out my card using some traditional stamps (did you know that makes this a Hybrid papercraft?) I can't help but mesh the two together. This bird looked a little perturbed, so I had to pull out this sentiment for it...lol. 

Don't forget to use the code SAVE10KARIN when shopping at I Brake for Digis and you will save 10% off your entire order...Have a great day!

Age is Only a Number

Hi All,

I'm posting a card I made for my cousin's birthday. He used to have an orange motorcycle before he traded it in for a black one, so I made this card with that bike in mind. It's much more fun to color in orange than in black...lol.

I used one of the cute Freddie stamps (Freddie on a Harley) from I Brake for Digis and paired it with a traditional stamped sentiment from my supplies. I added some twine, because that always seems good and guy-ish...

and I glued on some googly eyes just because they are so fun :)

Be sure to check out all the stamps at the I Brake for Digis store...I know you will like what you see!  Remember to use the code SAVE10KARIN and you will save 10% off your entire order :)

Massive Valentine's Day Blog Hop

Hi Everyone and Happy Valentine's Day!

I'm so proud to be a part of this enormous Valentine's Day blog hop that is showcasing lots of crafty goodness, all in celebration of this day of love :)  What could be better than that, right?  I have a list of all the participants at the end of the post, but in the line up, you should have arrived from Sugar's blog.  If you didn't check the list below or begin at Taylor's blog so you don't miss out on any of the fun.  We have a huge amount of prizes that will be awarded to random commenter's, so be sure to leave some blog love along the way.  The list of sponsors and prizes is below as well, but let's move on to the main event.

My first card uses Amber Ink's Hostess with the Mostess set colored with Copic markers in tons of pink and red and some checked iPaper for the holiday.  The hearts are from a Stampin' Up set, and they fit perfectly on her tray.  Heart shaped sugar cookie anyone?

Monday I usually post something I made with a stamp from I Brake for Digis.  I didn't have an obvious Valentine image , but I thought this set of Jars would fit the bill, since one is filled cute hearts.  

The twine, button, checked ribbon and Cosmo Cricket paper all seems to fit the kitchen theme. When shopping at I Brake for Digis, be sure to use the code SAVE10KARIN and you will save 10% on your entire order!

Thanks so much for making it to my blog on this fabulous hop that goes on through February 17th at 6:00 pm EST. That gives everyone a fair chance to make the rounds to all the blogs on the list.  Prizes will then be awarded to random commenter's from all the participating blogs on the hop.  Remember, the more comments you leave, the bigger your chance of winning!  Next up is Sunghee... Her blog is always worth the visit, what ever day it is!

Get Well Wishes

Hi Everyone,

I'm here today with a card that I made for my uncle.  I knew this Bed from I Brake For Digis would make the perfect image for a get well card.  I used some K & Company papers that looked like fabric and paper pieced the bed linens.  I added a stamped sentiment, a bit of Tim Holtz paper tape and pierced the paper along the bottom. I know it's not fussy, but I don't think men like fussy cards :)

Time to Relax

Good Morning Everyone,

I don't know about you, but with all the dark, dreary days we have had here in Ohio, I sure could use something colorful and cheerful.  That's where the inspiration for my card came from today.  It looks like my little Sun Bathing Bee from I Brake For Digis is on vacation.  Exactly where I wish I was, this very minute :) 

The image is colored with Copics and the background and sentiment were created with traditional stamps to echo the flowers on the bee's beach towel.

Here is a close up of the Stickles I added to the wings and the Glossy Effects on the sunglasses for some shine.

You're How Old?

Hi Everyone,

The minute I laid my eyes on this Laughing Hyena digi, from I Brake for Digis, this sentiment popped into my mind. I knew it would make a funny age related card for the right person...aka, someone with a sense of humor :)  I didn't have this sentiment in my stash, so I just made it myself in Word on my computer and printed it out right along with the image.

I decided this would be a guy card, so I roughed up the edges of the patterned card stock and added a felt border behind the image, which was cut out using my Nesties. The Laughing Hyena was colored with my Copics.

Thanks so much for visiting me here at the blog, and to see this image and so many more, stop by the store today.  If you choose to purchase something, use code SAVE10KARIN and you will save 10% off your purchase price :)

You Rock!

Hi Everyone!

Have you recovered from this past weekend?  Are you now making plans for New Year's Eve?  We are still on the fence as to what we are doing. We are in a bit of a rut, as far as marking the last day of the year. I love to stay home and watch movies, but we have done that the past 2 years :) 

My card today uses one of the" toad-ally" cute Freddie the Frog images from I Brake For Digis.  I set out to make this into a guy card, but with the colors, ribbon and scallops it ain't happenin'. I do love how cute it is though, I guess I will just have to give it to a female ;) 

I pulled out my hand held sewing whatchamacallit and did some messy stitching around the edges of my card to add some texture.  Freddie is colored with Copics and the buttons are a Martha Stewart punch.  (Easier for mailing)

Be sure to hop on over to the I Brake For Digis store and grab yourself some Freddie Frogs, and to save some cash, use code SAVE10KARIN and you will receive 10% off your purchase price.

Have a great day!

Just Hangin Around

Happy Monday!

I thought I would take a quick brake from the holiday cards and show off a card made with this cute Laundry digi stamp from I Brake for Digis.

I colored it with Copic markers to match this sweet girly paper I had in my stash.  The flowers were pre made stickers that I've had forever (no clue where they came from) so a big HOO-RAY for using up some of my much accumulated stuff ;)

Here is a close up of the mini clothes pin I added to the sentiment which is on a pop dot.

Oh Holy Night

Hi Everyone!

I'm here today with another card that uses an image from I Brake for Digis.  I have really been into Christmas cards that have an non traditional color scheme this year.  There is something about not using red and green that makes them stand out to me. 

This stamp is called Bethlehem and I colored it with Copics and added some Stickles to the star.  I played off the little stars in the image, which were only black dots, and I poked holes around my edges of my background paper.  My husband said that doing it gave it a middle eastern flair.  I don't know if that is true,  but I like it :)

The sentiment was a dollar stamp from a sale bin, but it had little black stars on it, so I paired it with this for that reason too. For me, making this card was a nice reminder that there is more to the season we are in than just being overwhelmed with a to do list and lots of shopping ;)

If you would like to grab this stamp or anything else at the I Brake For Digi store, use code SAVE10KARIN and you will save yourself 10% on your order.

Hi Everyone!

My card today uses another digi stamp from I Brake For Digi's.  I had this paper scrap on my desk from a past project, so I went with a square card using a favorite layout of mine, which is also easy to mass produce. 

This Holly Berry image was fun to color and matched exactly to the paper.  I added some red Stickles on the berries for bling and made the sentiment myself in Word. I hope my recipient will like it as much as I do!
