Good Morning Everyone!!

It is my DT day over at

The Alley Way Stamps

and I have a card to share that I made and entered into the 

PaperCrafts Stamping Royality contest. 

I didn't win and totally didn't expected to but I wanted to show you what I entered....

I used these stamp sets from TAWS~ Kid'n Caboodle, Background Check and All About You

   

And came up with this.......

Such a great sentiment and totally words to live by!

So here is a close-up of all the stamps I used from these 3 sets. I paper pieced the boat using MME Moments 6x6 paper pad, of course my sewing machine for some stitching and some Tim Holtz Broken China distress ink for the waves. My sentiment was stamped using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and I added a bit of copic marker coloring to the star and flag.

Well that is all I have for you. I hope you have enjoyed my card and please make sure to check out my Trendy Twine post.....

It's a super adorable card if you ask me :)

Happy Saturday everyone!!

Enjoy the weekend!!

 It was through my friend 

Amy over at Tsuruta Designs 

that I got to learn of his story.

I sent a card for Sebastian the last time he was having surgery and this is the card I will be sending to him for this surgery. 

Using this weeks 

Mojo Monday Sketch

I came up with this......

I really hope this brings a smile to Sebastian's face :)

Amy was looking to stay away from the get well cards

but thought using the cute bandaid from the Sea Mates set on the whale would be adorable for a

 "thinking of you" /"get well" without actually saying Get Well :)

Today I am sharing a fun interactive card using the set~ 
Framed

I made a spinner card that my kiddo's pictures will be put into and given to their grandparents!

How fun is this???

I used the file from the Silhouette store and altered it just a bit so that the picture frame fit perfectly. I stamped all the my images on the dp and paper pieced the white on the camera. Added some glossy accents to those parts and attached it to the card front.

This is such a fun card to make and I know it will be adorable once the boys pictures are in there as well :)
