Winner!

Thank you for all you wonderful comments and well wishes for my MIL she is doing very well. I believe in the power of prayer! She is out of the hospital but not home yet. She sends out cards to so many people. I am going to be working on making some cards for her to mail out to people. My 2 sister in laws make cards as well and we try to keep her in homemade cards but it is nearly impossible :) if you would like to encourage her and help us make some cards you can mail them to me and I will get them to her. This is her ministry and so many people benefit from her words of encouragement, birthday,anniversary wishes,sympathy cards. No matter what the occasion is she sends them out. Besides being a teacher she is also a ministers wife and has been such a bright light to so many people. My address is

Hope all is well with your MIL. I love your lo, it's so cute. I am a new follower

Congratulations Mary! I will contact you by e-mail shortly to find out where you want me to send your new stamp to!
Also I am working on downsizing my scrap booking/card making stash and would like to know if you think it is a bad idea to offer giveaways of used items as long as they are marked as used? I know I wouldn't care if I won something used as long as it labeled as being used. Anyway would love your input on this.

Thanks,

Teresa

Peachy Keen Stamps :: Sketch Challenge 46

Today I made this card for my nephew using create a critter for the cow and the barn.  I used Old West Cartridge to make the sign.  I used the Hide contour feature to hide the word BARB -E-CUE.  I also used Wobbles to put the cow into motion.  I know my nephew is only 2 but I think he will have fun see this little cow wobble.  He lives so far away  I love talking to him on the phone.  The sentiment I love Moo is from My Pink Stamper More punny-licious  stamp set. The cows face is from Critter face set at Peachy Keen Stamps.  The cow is larger than life because it is for a 2 year old.  Just keep that in mind :)

Valentine Banquet

Happy Sunday Morning!  whew what a busy weekend this has been!  Friday night and Sat morning our church hosted a tele marriage Seminar.  It was great and believe me I was not in the mood for it, but glad we went. Then Sat evening we had a Valentine Banquet to honor the Widows of the congregation.  This was the first time for us to have it at this church.  We had 5 widows come out of 15.  I am so excited.  I just love this event.  Paul and I have been doing it for about 9 years now.  It is kind of our Valentine gift to each other.  Here is a picture of the invitation I made to invite them all.  I just love the peachy keen stamps and my cricut.  I can't imagine doing a project with out them.  My husband also got me 5 more cartridges.  $103 total shipping and tax.  Great deal over at custom crops!  Well I must run.  Got to leave for church in 20 mins.  Hope everyone has a blessed Sunday in Fellowship with your Christian family!

Throwback Thursday Challenge

For this weeks challenge we are suppose to use "Just Because" & "Wild Card" cartridges  & make sure your card has a "Stamped Sentiment" on it.  I don't have the "Just Because"  So I went with the "Wild Card"  I used the Tri-fold card and the bird and branch is also a feature on this cart.  The stamped sentiment is on the second leg of the tri-fold.  Not my favorite card but part of these challenges is thinking outside the box right?  Not to mention day 3 stuck inside and missing work all because of a little "ice".  Have a blessed day!

Throwback Thursday Challege over at My Creative Time with Emma

This challenge was to use one of the paper dolls and to use embossing.  I love these two cartridges.  You can do so many different things with them.  They have so many extras.  I chose to make this wedding cake card.  It looks much better in person.  I had a hard time getting the picture to come out.  This was a fun challenge to do.  When someone asks me what are the must have cartridges.  I would definitely choose these two :)  Hope you enjoy.

My Pink Stamper "Birthday Challenge"

My Pink Stamper is having a challenge for her birthday.  We are suppose to make a birthday project.  I used Playtime cartridge to make this cute little girl.  I think it turned out great for a birthday card for a little girl.  What do you think?

Great deal at Michaels.

Wow has been a crazy time.  Stepped into michaels today and big surprise they apparently had a great sale this week on Cartridges.  They only had a couple left but I got Sweathart's and A Child's Year for only 9.99 each.  it is something to walk out of michael's with 2 cartridges for $20.  Wish I had know about this earlier in the week.  However, Probably a good thing I didn't LOL.

Happy New Year!!!!
