Last Day...

Just wanted to post a reminder that today is the LAST day to order anything from the Stampin' Up! mini catalog. (Tart and Tangy stamp set, Summer Picnic paper, and the list goes on of fabulous things in that mini!!!) Also, it's the last day to take advantage of the Fresh Cuts Sneak Peak promotion and the eScape Bundle promotion. (See my side bar for more details.) Also, not much time left to order any of this year's In Color Accessories!

Email me at designwithink@gmail.com if you have any questions or would like to place an order.

Quicky 3x3...


Sorry for my absence in posting! I've had family in town and life has just been busy. I helped my friend yesterday do a project. Her daughter is getting baptized and she had picture invites that we made some envelopes for. So I made the Purely Pomegranate scallop that is on the front of this card, and had a few left over. Decided to make a 3x3 out of it. So completed this card in like 2 minutes. Can I even tell you how much I love this textured card stock! It adds such a fabulous touch! Loving it! :) I'll be back soon! Hope you are all doing fabulous! :)

Color Inspiration #13

Time for another Color Inspiration Challenge. I really think these are so much fun. And I have to say that this card turned out like NOTHING I was going for. I kept having ideas in my mind then realizing what I needed was upstairs (I had a class last night) or I couldn't find in the mess of my stamp room (which I am sure some of you understand) or I just changed my mind. So...this is what it became. It's fun to make cards like this, I think. Hope you enjoy!

Farmer's Market Pics...

Well...here are a few pics of our spot at the Farmer's Market. This was in the beginning...before we had everything set up how we really wanted it. But you get the idea anyway, right?! We were in the PERFECT spot. We were right by a big tree, so we had shade in the 100 degree weather all day, with the exception of the last 20 mins or so. It was GREAT!

Boho Card...

Well I was trying to clean up my room today (because it's a DISASTER!!!) and I put away my Soft Sky and River Rock ink pads. Well...I thought...I want to make a card with those. So, I got side tracked from my cleaning and made a card. :) I messed up in a few places, but didn't take the time to fix it. (Notice the chocolate chip ink on the Soft Sky left side. Ooops!) Here it is...mistakes and all! :)

SORRY!!

Hey there! I am SORRY that I haven't posted anything new in a few days. Still recovering from our busy Saturday at the Farmer's Market. :) We had a great time and it was a success. We met some great people, sold more than we thought we would, and just had fun. We will be back there on the 5th of July. But I will post new things tomorrow! SORRY! Hope everyone had a great weekend!

More 3x3's....

(This is going to be a quick post. Tomorrow is the big day....our first day doing the Farmer's Market booth! Can't say I'm ready! I think I might be up all night. Hope it's worth it!!! Wish me luck! :) )

I have to say...I love the 3x3 size. They are so much fun to make! And I love taking pieces leftover after I've made a project with a Simply Scrappin' Kit and making this size card. Like I did HERE with the Crew Kids Girl Simply Scrappin' Kit. Anyway...so here is the same idea, done with the Tie the Knot Simply Scrappin' Kit. (Seriously...these kits are AWESOME! I do SO MUCH more than just scrapbook with them!!!) Sorry the photo is a bit blurry though!

Origami Fun...

More things for the Farmer's Market! This is what my life has consisted of lately. I love these origami cups. They are fun to make. And then I put a York Peppermint Patty inside, sandwiched between two of the same scallops that are on the front. Here an up close and personal picture of each one.

Darling Treats...

Most stampers (and people!) would agree that chocolate is a FABULOUS treat to receive from anyone. Well....a darling decorated chocolate treat is even BETTER to receive, right?! I saw these candy holders on Amy's Addiction blog. I decided I had to try some of these myself. So I grabbed some Berry Bliss Designer Series Paper, and went to town. These are all the same, just the saying is different. Then they are held close with some velcro. I just cut a velcro dot in half. They are fun to make. I made a few of them to sell at the Farmer's Market this Saturday. Only 4 more days until we have to be ready...I guess 3 because we'll have to be ready by Friday night. Wish us luck!!!! Stop by if you're in town! :)

3 x 3's with Leftovers

So after my 9x9 Tabletop scrapbook was done, I wanted to use up some of my leftover pieces. So I cut some white cards, 3x3 size, and went to town. It was fun, and again...I LOVE this color combo! These cards are bright and cheery in real life. I hate taking pictures at night because I don't have that natural light that makes photos so much better! :) So here are a few different views of the same cards. Enjoy!
