It's the Little Things

Ohhhh, November!   Time for another Stamp-of-the-Month Blog Hop!  If you're hopping along, you just came from Priscilla's Blog.  These hops are always so fun to see what everyone's put together. 

Do you ever look at your scrap bag/box/pile and think, "oh my, what am I going to do with those?"  Well, it was time for me to make some room in the scrap bin as it was starting to get full again SO when I saw this card sketch on SB.Com for October,  I knew it was perfect for my goal to use some scraps.   Unfortunately, the scraps I had available, look more like a Spring Card than Fall, LOL!
But I loved all the fun banners.

I really liked the "just for you" stamp in the set though so I made a 2nd card using that also.  This sketch is from MOJO Monday #367.   Another great card sketch for using scraps.   I hope to get some Fall cards made soon with these fun stamps as there are so many possibilities! 

I'm sure you'll see lots more fun ideas as you hop along.   Your next stop is Michelle!  If you get lost along the way, HERE is the list of all the hoppers!   Enjoy!

Going Old School ...

oh yeah, Happy Friday!  It's time once again for another GREAT Color My Heart Color Dare #115 - Outdoor Denim, Sunset, and Olive.   As I dug through my stash, I found some older scraps with just the perfect colors.  Of course, I had to go look what the paper is called.  I also found some fun brads and an eyelet. 

It was perfect for this week's Retro Sketch #136. 

Come and play!

A Thankful Heart

This weekend we were able to enjoy some lovely Fall Foliage with a fun Fall Festival held here in our community.   Each year at this time they sponsor different spots in the country to get out and see.  It was 65 and sunny and the day was wonderful.    I even had time to use some scraps on my desk to finish up a few cards that went along with how I was feeling!   Using scraps, stamping and enjoying Fall colors ... wow!   What a fun combination.

Ahhh Home!

Welcome to this week's Color My Heart Color Dare #114.   This week we're using Goldrush, Crystal Blue, Pacifica and Honey.   It worked perfectly for this picture I've been wanting so much to scrap.   The sentimental meaning of the photo was important for me to get in my Scrapbook. 

It's always a special moment for this Momma's heart when all of my children are home.  It means the driveway is full, LOL!

The Sketch is from this month's Friends That Scrap October Sketch and I used all of the items for October's Week #1 Stash Challenge on SCS.

One of a Kind

Instead of being bummed about the cold temps coming I decided that I would enjoy staying in this weekend to make cards AND I would participate in OWH challenge to use snowflakes on a non-holiday card. 

While I enjoy stamping snowflakes, I just do not enjoy dealing with them as weather, LOL.   Since I was using the OWH Sketch #240,  I decided to play along with the ODBD Challenge on the OWH site which was to use the snowflake stamps.   Probably a good challenge for me as I do have several snowflake stamps in my stash.  These are some of my faves.

I haven't heat embossed in awhile, forgot how much I like how it turns out.
