"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it." ~ Isaiah 55: 8-11

U ROCK! / CQC #244, CTS #78 & CFC #132...


Hello! I am finally here with my card.... too many projects at once - LOL! This card is for today's colourQ! Kinda "man-ly" colors for Father's Day coming up! I used some new stamps from Altenew - Hennah Elements and Label Love. They are awesome! I also played with CAS-ual Fridays and CAS(e) This Sketch!

            

Big hugs!

CONGRATS ON THE NEWS / CFC #85 & TAWS Inspiration...


Good morning! I made a quick card for the TAWS inspiration post today... this idea has been kickin' around in my head for days! I used three different sets; The Gang, Talk To Me & Tie One On (sentiment). It's hard to see, but the back stamped panel is embossed. I threw a little piece of washi on for another dab of color, too. I think it's fun to stretch sets & combine them to make a card you'd not normally think of!

        


I also played along with CASual Fridays.... again - LOL! The speech bubble & buttons are my "rounds"!


Thanks so much for stopping by!

KEEP IT UP / TAWS Inspiration & CFC #85...


Good morning ~ it's a beautiful day in the neighborhood! Well, at least I am hoping it will be! I used this cute little hot air balloon for today's TAWS Inspiration card! I know the last time I stamped this I used chevron paper, but I think it looks so cool! I used the Lighter than Air set, and the sentiment is from Work it Out.

     

I also played along with CASual Fridays.... "CFC85: Round of Applause- CAS cards that celebrates an accomplishment, and feature at least one circle." So, the button is my circle - LOL!

HOME IS WHERE... / Fresh Squeezed Spotlight & CFC #78...


This is my last card for today, using this delightful Christmas set from Fresh Squeezed Stamps... LOVE IT! This set, Winter Wonderland is just so sweet - I have really enjoyed paper piecing with it! I love the little elements that you can add to the tree, how cute is this cardinal and little nest??? I have always loved cardinals... they are so vibrant in the drabness of winter!

Here's a view of the whole set Winter Wonderland and you can see more inspiration over at the Fresh Squeezed Stamps blog...


I also played along with CAS-ual Fridays...again!


Have an awesome day!

PENNY PEPPERMINT / ByLoriDesigns New Release & CFC #78...


EEK - how cute is this image?!? Lori inked up some new images over at ByLoriDesigns and they are ADORABLE!!!  I used Penny Peppermint for this card, and she was so fun to color! For some reason she reminds me Velma from Scooby Doo?!? Maybe it's the glasses....

Lori has 4 images in this bundle, which you can check out/buy HERE... They are $4 each or you can get the bundle for only $12 (awesome deal!).

YOU MOVE ME / Fresh Squeezed Stamps November Release & CFC #77...


I am so thrilled and excited to be "Guesting" for a FANTASTIC new stamp company.... Fresh Squeezed Stamps!!! I am so humbled and honored to have been asked to help out with their November Release. Thanks so much to the artists, Ryann Salamon and Shannon Fralish, for asking me!!!



I loved this new Fresh Squeezed set, Games People Play, which will be available for sale on November 10th. Of course, you could get lucky and win one of them!!! Go check out the details over at the Fresh Squeezed Stamps' blog!


Isn't this fun?!? I used my rectangular Nestabilities to cut out the frame and paper pieced the game piece. I love these papers, and thought they matched this set perfectly! I added a button, some washi & a little bit of twine to finish it off.

Be sure to head over to Fresh Squeezed Stamps and see what other fresh goodies they have over there!

I am also playing along with CAS-ual Fridays... I think these "guy" colors qualify - don't you?



Thanks so much for stopping by!

I LONG 2 SEE YA / CFC #75, 10MCD #5, CCC #16...


Well, the kids are in bed, I'm watching re-runs of Castle and I have a quick little card to share! It's my pleasure to play along with the 10 Minute Craft Dash! I didn't time this card, but it didn't take long, since I had some pre-cut pieces laying around. You can also tell I was in a hurry since my coloring is a little crude - LOL!

I used Party Animal, from the The Alley Way Stamps! I love love love giraffes! And who wouldn't want a pink and orange giraffe for a pet? I also used TAWS sentiments from various sets.... to many to list!


So for this card I combined three challenge; CAS-ual Fridays, 10 Minute Craft Dash & CASology! Nothing better to get your mojo going than playing along with great challenges!
 

I made soup tonight, Turkey Vegetable.... looks yummy, huh? 


ARIELLE'S TURKEY VEGGIE SOUP

Ingrdients:
1 onion, diced
3 - 5 garlic cloves, minced
1 tbsp olive oil
1 lb. ground turkey
1/2 tsp Italian herbs
1 tsp ground pepper
1 lg can of Veg-all, juice included
1 sm can of chili beans, drained & rinsed
1 lg can of petite diced tomatoes, juice included
6 cups of chicken stock
1 cup water
1 beef bouillon cube
couple dashes of Worcestershire
couple dashes of hot sauce
dash of cumin 
dash of ground chipotle 
1/2 bag of spinach
salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
Saute the onion and garlic in olive oil. When the garlic starts to brown, add your turkey. As you cook the turkey, break it up with a spatula and add your ground pepper and herbs. Once the turkey is no longer pink, add the rest of the ingredients. Let simmer 20 minutes and you're ready to eat! 

I add dashes of things like chipotle and cumin just to give a little extra  dimension of flavor. If you left them out, you probably wouldn't notice much!

Have a great night!

KISSES / CFC #74...


Well, I didn't want to miss out on this week's Casual Fridays Challenge, the theme is hearts, so I'm getting this in under the wire! I know it's a bit early for Valentine's Day, but wouldn't this be awesome for your sweetie?

I used the sets Mad Gab and Ooh-La-La from The Alley Way Stamps, a little washi and some die cuts - quick and simple! Oh, and don't forget the buttons - I love buttons!

    

Thanks so much for visiting!
