Core'dinations - My Favorite Things

Well I'm up today at the Core'dinations blog to show off one of my favorite paper lines - the Graphic 45. I used a combination of their papers and the Core'dinations Graphic 45 papers for this one and also did a card. Stop over at the Core'dination's blog - there will be lots of give aways!

Happy Monday!

Hope you have a great start to your week. Brandy comes home from LA today - YEAH!!! Actually said she was ready to come home and was glad she moved back! SHOCK! Have a few things to share today and tomorrow I have some more of My Favorite Things with Core'dinations to share with you so come back and check them out.
First off since I made the Sketchabilities DT I just realized that they have a Cardabilities blog as well so went over to play along with their sketch this week as well. Haven't had a chance to do the layout yet but going to get to it as well.
I used some Echo Park paper here and a digital stamp (forgot whose) and a SRM sticker. Oh and just got the die cut from Die-namics for these little flowers!! Love them.


Next wanted to play along over at Less is More again this week - challenge was to use Music. This stamp was the only thing I had to go along with the theme so one more Christmas card. The stamp is a Rachelle Anne Miller from Paper Works Co., the cardstock is Glittersilk from Core'dinations.

Then this sketch caught my attention over at Once Upon a Sketch and I was inspired to made this page using the Jenni Bowlin Core'dination's Cardstock and these cute pictures of my grandkids.

Thanks for stopping by! Back to work tomorrow for two more days.

Saturday and Unscripted Sketches

Well I'm working today so hope this comes up when it's supposed to. Here's my card for the Unscripted Sketches this week. Used some Smooches stamps and some Core'dination's cardstock for this one.





Then come over to see what the Design Team over at Core'dinations has in store for you for the next couple of weeks. We are bringing you "our favorite things". We have each picked some of our favorite lines of Core'dinations and done layouts and cards showing off what our favorite lines are. Today I have a layout using Pink Paisley cardstock and pp.

Thanks again for stopping by!

Thurday and For Your Inspiration

Hope you are having a great week - this is my last day before going back to work. Brandy leaves this morning for a weekend in LA - going back to do a little dance and see her friends before leaving for school in January. I have loved having her home! Today I have a card for the new inspirational photo challenge over at FYI. PLEASE take time to go and check out what the rest of the design team has for you - they are FABULOUS cards! I'm amazed at being part of this DT - everyone is such a great inspiration!.

For my card I used some Core'dinations Glittlersilk and embossed it - then stamped with a LaBlanche stamp. The sentiment is from Smooches.

Thanks for stopping by and please join us with your inspiration from this photo!

Wednesday cards

Well it's rainy and I can't get inspired to get anything done but play in here this week so here's a couple of more cards I made - into simple this week I think. Ran this morning in the mist - walked about 3 miles and then ran a couple or more home = sure I will pay for it but it felt ok at the time. Random brown lab tagged me just about a block from home and went along the entire time. VERY discouraging to be jogging along and look over and the dog is just walking fast.

First card is for the sketch over at CPS this week. Core'dination's Glittersilk collection on this one together with some Smooches stamps.



Then the next one is for the challenge over at Less is More. This time I used a favorite Christmas stamp I have from Penny Black - have you noticed how many adorable Snowmen stamps there are out now? The lettering stamps are from Smooches.Thanks for stopping by!
