Good morning Y'all !!! It's time for another challenge this week over at
http://craftspotbykimberly.blogspot.com/. The challenge this week is to make a Congratulations card. With graduation right around the corner, I'm sure we all have a card to make for someone special! The sentiment from the Inside and Out Collection, Set# 1 , was the inspiration for this card. The inside stamp is "Congratulations on your Success " These stamp sets are so great, you get a sentiment for the outide of your card and one for the inside!! Cool, right ?!? I used Paperdolls for Everyday for the overalls. I used several embossing folders, did lots of inking and popping and I did some doodlin. I added the buttons and some beautiful Crinkle Ribbon and Bakers Twine. The sentiment, Crinkle Riboon and Bakers Twine can all be found at

Hi Y'all !! Let me start by thanking y'all again for your concern for me during the tornadoes that ravaged Alabama on Wed!!!! My heart is so full.I'm really honored to call each and everyone of you my friend! I made this card for my friend Sharon. I used the teapot and cup from A Child's Year and welded them together on my Gypsy. Sharon has been going to Estate sales and buying lots of old china and glass ware, so I thought this paper looked really old fashioned and would fit in with her latest hobby. The button and seam binding are vintage and were given to me by Sharon so I wanted to add those to the card too.I used a stamp from the Sweet Sentiments Collection, set 1and you can see that collection

Welcome to My World
This sight is dedicated to the art of card making....of which I am addicted ! I began making cards a few months before Dan was deployed to Iraq.I wanted to make sure he had a new card to open every day, so I used BlueMountian.Co and created him 2 months worth of cards !About a year ago I saw that famous infomercial for a little bug called a Cricut.Well, after watching it numerous times, I HAD to have it...and I ordered it!!!Then I found the Cricut Message Board and I hit pay dirt!!! I was, and still am so inspired by some of the talented women on that board!I have to give them credit for making me the card maker that I am today!!!
Thank you ladies, from the bottom of my heart!
I hope you enjoy looking at my cards, as much as I enjoy making them!!!
