CPS 129...and yet another gate fold card.

My daughters talked me into purchasing this Party Hoppers wooden stamp by Stampabilities several months ago, but they still haven't used it. I stamped it and then cut out the individual partiers to create a card using today's CPS Sketch .

Aren't these guys adorable? I went "old school" with chalks and paper tearing :-) .

I keep trying to get rid of the pile of paper scraps that I have on one of my tables, but no matter how many pieces I use - like for this card - the pile seems to grow overnight.

Thanks for taking time to peek at my work...I appreciate you!

Cute Card Thursday (I cheated...and there's worse...)

I haven't participated in the Cute Card Thursday challenge for quite some time.I had a few free minutes to check out the challenge.. when I saw it was a beach theme, however, I cheated and I grabbed this card that had been sitting on my stamping station for quite some time. Since the CCT was done, Iwent on to create a few more gate cards. My really awful confession, though, is this...I actually combined Close To My Heart products with Stampin' Up products...with Archiver's products. Gasp. Oh the shame.
As always, you can click on the pictures to view the flaws, er details.

Happy Friday to you!

Another gate card...

It was a busy night last night because Josh, Kyle and 4 other young people joined us for dinner. I didn't make anything new, but here's another gate card I made the other night.

Wishing you a beautiful day,
