Flower winner(S)

Good morning! Yesterday really got away from me and I am sorry for not posting the winner of my flower giveaway yesterday! So today I am going to give all 3 of the lovely commenters a set of these flowers. Please contact me with your addresses Glitterbabe, Rose Petal, and Rhonda and I will get them sent out to you as fast as FTD! Well maybe not that fast! I spent some time after work on Thursday night and made 12 more...having fun creating them and playing around with different punches. I will be back later this weekend with a creation for you...thanks tons for stopping by to see me!

FSS Ornate Butterfly

What a beautiful day we have here today! Birds are singing, weather is nice and cool and I have the day off! Can't get much better than that! Speaking of beautiful, that is how I feel about the card above...what do you think? I really love all white cards, like clean and simple. The beautiful butterfly used on this card is Ornate Butterfly....in the FSS Store. Now this awesome butterfly comes as as a digi and cutting file set. I used the cutting file set and cut it out with my Black Cat Cougar. I ran the bottom layer of the butterfly through the Xyron, put the top layer on and then added some glitter. Some of the other elements used on the card are Cuttlebug Musical Flourish and Polka Dots embossing folders and Nestabilities Lattice Rectangles and Labels Eight dies.The embellishments that I used on the butterfly body and on the edge of the frame are from Pizzazz Aplenty. 
Now that my card has been covered, I have a surprise for you today. Today is my birthday and I am giving one lucky commenter a gift...I have begun making my own paper flowers with punches and I will use Random number to pick a lucky commenter on Friday. Want to see what you will get?

 Just leave some love and you are in the drawing! Now know, I am just learning to make these so they may not be "perfect" but I think they are surely usable! Have a great day today and thanks much for stopping by!

FSS Teacup Pansies

Good morning! Hope you are off to a good start of your day today! I have a quick post today...just wanted to drop in and share with you a card that I created using the FSS Blue Pansies colored set. I cut the image out using Labels 18 nestie and added some glitter around the edges and to the cup. It is pop dotted on top of a blue piece of cardstock embossed with the Cuttlebug Musical Flourish folder...geez I really like that folder! Underneath that blue card stock the card is framed out with some gingham blue ribbon from Pizzazz Aplenty...I just thought it made a nice frame under the blue cardstock instead of it sitting right on the card base. Also you will see that I used some blue pearls...also from Pizzazz Aplenty...to embellish the card. The punch I used on the edge of my card I think was called Tulips...EK Success. Lot of fussing with this card but I do like how it turned out.
OH GOSH! Wanted to share with you in case you didn't already know...Judy at Pizzazz Aplenty is running her biannual sale on her rhinestones and flatback pearls...BUY ONE GET ONE FREE!
Well gotta run...I wish you all a great day today in whatever you are doing! Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving some love!

FSS Lenten Roses

Good morning! What a beautiful but overly warm weekend! We were very busy this weekend catching up with each other...my husband and I! He had been gone for 10 days out of state and although we talked to each other daily, it seemed like forever! Yesterday we visited our state park but didn't stay too long since it was really too warm to do any hiking. So I did get a chance to work on some projects since the weather called for some indoor time! My card today is using the FSS Lenten Rose image again...as well as the same sentement I had used on my previous card...just presented a little differently. The embossed layer is one of my new Cuttlebug folders Musical Flourish...I am really liking the way it looks. The ribbon is from Pizzazz Aplenty...AND it is currently on sale! I think it was among one of my first purchases from Judy. Well today I am going to play some more AND do some long overdue visiting! I can't wait to see all the creations you have been making! Have a blessed day and happy creating!
HUGS!
