Just wanted to share my recent favorite creation with you all!!

A super CUTE card using a Super Duper cute Paper Smooches stamp set...

First of all I want you all to check out the "Fintastic" part of the sentiment...I used a special inking technique to give it a scaly look. I inked up the stamp and gentle made marks on it with a toothpick.

The cute dolphin image is from Paper Smooches-Briny Blue set.

I used sentiments from PS-Birthday Buddies set to make my new sentiment.

Just added a lil' bit of October Afternoon paper and some Timeless Twine Baker's twines.

Glossy accents on the dolphin gives the wet shine to it.

Hello Everyone!!

Here is a catch up post..

I had super busy weekend and Monday was my little one's Birthday. She is not little anymore( I just don't want her to get BIG..I love my baby), she turned 8!!!!

So now I'm back to my regular crafting schedule...

Here are some CASual Fridays Stamps cards...if you've missed the post..HERE.

I did some fun thing...I always like to buy the journaling card sort of things from different paper companies.As you all know I'm not a scrapbooker, I hardly use them...so finally used them on my card with some stamping on it.

This journaling spot is from Echo Park. I used Hero Arts - Tide Pool and Pale Tomato inks to stamp my Brushstroke image from Breathe stamp set...its a perfect match of colors!!

Stamped the lovely quote from the same stamp set.

The pearl brads are from My Mind's Eye.

I also used some patterned paper from Crate Paper.

Yep! I know its quite a mix-match of lots products from different manufactures...sometimes its fun to do so!

This card is for the following challenges....

Created With Love: Anything Goes.

Paper Playtime: Anything Goes.

Challenges 4 Everybody : Anything Goes.

Next up is a sweet and simple card...

 I stamped the border from the Stop stamp set using various Hero Arts Mid-tone inks.
