Sailing away....

I've never been sailing, but this little boat makes me want to give it a try. I stamped, colored, and cut out the boat so it could be inserted into the waves. Life's a breeze was the perfect sentiment and I just had to use the new cloud paper!

This is one of the 10 cards we'll be making in my Life's a Beach! class at Angela's Happy Stamper and Create It Crafts. Can't wait!

Simply Rosy

Have you seen all the beautiful cards from the Creative Team? I've been so inspired by their designs. I didn't have much time this week, but I just had to pop in and show one of mine. I decided to make it simple (think simple, think A Muse right?). The new release, called Everything's Rosy, is just perfect for simple cards. On this card I used the new Bare Branch with leaves. The little leaves are on the side of the wood block so it's easy to add them where you want. I also use the new sentiment which I think is going to be another "go to" stamp for me. And then, of course, I had to use the new watermelon paper! It's so pretty I just want to lick it (mmm....).

It's been way too long


I know, I've been away far too long. My life has been moving much too fast. I just couldn't even find the time to stop in and say hello! I hope you'll forgive me. :(
Here's a little springtime gatefold card I recently made for a class (Fun Folds). Sometimes I get so locked into the typical folding cards that I forget about all the fun ways you can add a little spark to a card. Does that happen to you? I hope I'm not the only one.
I promise to check in again soon! I'm working on some summer/beach cards for my upcoming Life's a Beach class. I *heart* the A Muse beach images so much that we'll be making 10 cards in this class. I just couldn't help myself.....

True Blue


Little Moby is perfect for coloring. Here I used Prismacolor pencils to give him some shading. This card will be part of my upcoming Color My World class at Clare's Keepsake and Scrapbook Cove, Angela's Happy Stamper and Create It Crafts. Check out the dates and times under Upcoming Classes. If you're in Virginia, Delaware or Maryland I love to see you!

Sprinkles

Here's a simple card we'll be making in this weekend's Sweet Valentine Wishes class at Clare's Keepsake and Scrapbook Cove. We had to re-schedule to this Sunday, Feb. 14 due to the snow. I can't wait to meet new A Muse fans!
