Sweet baby Riley!

No, Riley is not a name we have picked out nor do we know what we are having. Just wanted to clarify that first :) I've mentioned before that we know 5 people who are expecting at the moment so I went ahead and made a couple of these cards the other day thinking that at least one of them is bound to have a boy. I was right, a friend had an U/S the other day and got the good news that they can start shopping for blue now! So excited for them. This seems to be my go to paper for baby boys. I just love the muted Earthy tones and I couldn't help but pull out little Riley. This image just makes me smile and I love paper piecing his little diaper on. I followed Taylored Expressions Sketch Challenge 111 for the layout. Perfect for a quick, little notecard. Enjoy your day!

Deja Vu Baby Riley

Are you having one of those deja vu moments on my blog?? I know that I used the same stamp and paper to make this Mojo Moose card the other day. However, everyone has been having baby boys lately and this is just the perfect combo for congrats cards! Plus this little moose is just too darn cute. My SIL is due in a couple weeks, so we will see if she breaks the blue cycle :) I followed this sketch that I found over on Jen's blog. Talk about fabulous!!! Such a neat layout with so many shapes. I will definitely save this one to use again. My little moose was colored in with Copics and then very carefully cut out with Cutterbee scissors. I again paper pieced his little pacifier and diaper on. I have to admit, these have been some pretty stylin' diapers! FYI: the Limited Edition coconut M&Ms are yummalicious! Thanks for stopping by. I hope everyone has a fabulous Monday!

Mojo Moose

I had a quick chance this afternoon to play with Mojo 91! When I saw this week's challenge, I got excited because I love the layout and I really love making cards this size. My card measures 3.5 x 6. I colored Baby Riley in with Koh-i-noor pencils and OMS. His diaper and pacifier are paper pieced on. Can you tell that I've been stuck on cutting thing out lately? I just like the look and it's so easy to do with my Cutterbee scissors. The pattern paper comes from the Basic Grey Archaic pad. It's perfect for boy/guy cards. Thanks for stoppin' by today!!

Campfire Riley

It's Tuesday and time for a Jacksonbelle Embellishments challenge. Today's creations are inspired by one of my favorite summer activities. With Memorial Day just right around the corner, make a card or project inspired by a cook out. When uploading to SCS, please us the keyword JBE054 so we can check out what you come up with. Be sure to check out the new Basic Grey pearls and rhinestones - they are a great price and going fast!



When I read what the challenge was going to be, this was the first image that came to my mind. When I think of cook outs, I definitely think of s'mores!! It's just so relaxing and fun to sit around the camp fire with family and friends eating a gooey chocolate sandwich. I chose to use the Basic Grey Marrakech paper for this card because it not only gives it a rustic, cabin feel, but I thought the pattern paper looked like a quilt you would take along to a cook out. I colored Campfire Riley in with Koh-i-noor pencils and OMS. To the fire and mushrooms, I added Marigold Shimmerz using an aquapainter. The brads are also from the Marrakech collection. Gotta love when everything matches so easily. I followed this sketch for the layout. Thanks for stopping by and be sure to check out what the other design team gals came up with:

O'Riley Clan

I finally had a chance to play with last week's Mojo Monday Challenge. Such a fun layout!! I used this paper combo on a card last week and couldn't resist using it again to make another St. Patty's Day card. I just love these images and I love pairing them together. I colored the O'Riley clan :) in with Koh-i-noor pencils. I went over the gold and the hat buckle with a Sakura Stardust pen. Quick and simple, but oh so cute! Hope you're having a fabulous day.

Plane Riley

I pulled out my Plane Riley to make a quick boy card today. That little moose just makes me smile. I thought that he would make a perfect birthday card! I colored him in with Prismacolor pencils. The little banner was cut out and raised with dimensionals. The clouds and little red part on the propeller are covered in Icicle Stickles. That corner punch is another new one from EK Success called Victorian Photo Corner. FYI - all the new EK Success punches are 30% off at Michael's this week! I only put it in the bottom corner because I thought that it almost looked like the top of a tree. Card measured 5.5 x 3.5. Enjoy your weekend!!!

Riley Sketch

I love Riley - he just make me giggle and this image is one of my favs since I'm a huge bookworm. I made this for a family friend who recently loaned my husband and I a few books to read. I followed Hanna Sketch Challenge 54 for the layout. The circles are cut out and embossed with Nesties. Riley is colored in with Koh-i-noor pencils. I cut out his hands holding the book and raised it with a dimensional. To finish it off, I added some Stardust Stickles to give the image some sparkles. The pattern paper is by October Afternoon - my new favorite paper line! I just love the rich assortment of colors on this sheet. I even decorated the inside of the card a bit. Seems to be "the thing to do" these days. I kept it simple and just pulled out the spiral punch to added a little decoration. Oh and if you are wanting to learn how to tie a knot or bow, check out Amy's video tutorial. That's pretty much how I do mine and she has some great tips. Thanks for stopping by today!!

Baby Moose Sketch

I'm going to a baby shower this weekend so I made this card to go along with my gift. Now before you look too closely, I swear all the blues don't look that off in real life. This janky camera is driving me crazy and I took way too many photos of this little card today. So I finally just gave up and went with it. Good news is the camera company received our broken camera yesterday. I'm on pins and needles waiting to find out what's wrong and what the damage will be!!! Okay on to the details of the card. I followed Mojo 67 for the layout. I inked up this adorable little Baby Moose stamp from Hanna Stamps. He is colored in with Koh-i-noor pencils and OMS. The little pacifier is cut out and raised with a dimensional. I added some Angel Shimmerz to the green part to give it a little sparkly. I would show you a close-up, but that it too much to ask from this camera. Trust me I've tried numerous times. Everything comes out blurry when I zoom in. I keep trying, but so far it's not happening. Sigh! Thanks for stopping by today!!

Joyful Plane Riley

I'm baaaack! The project I've been working on is done (whew) and in the mail. Now y'all just have to wait until November to see it :) I have a bunch of cards to make and catch up on now, but first and for most I had to make a card for my nephew. He is turning 4 on Saturday and I believe we might be going to Seaworld to celebrate with him. I think this is the first time I've inked up this Riley. I had a blast coloring him and I have several other ideas on how I could use this image. I colored him in with prismacolors and OMS. The sign is cut out and raised with a dimensional. I also went over the clouds with Starduct Stickles. I followed sketch challenge 196 for the layout. It was perfect for this image. Thanks for stopping by today!!!!

School Riley Sketch

My friend Anna pointed out last week's sketch challenge on SCS to me. I'm so glad she did because it was really fun to play with and worked perfectly for the image I wanted to use today. This is my first time inking up School Riley. I bought him the moment he was released at Hanna Stamps because it's no secret that I'm a huge bookworm. He is just too cute, especially in his big glasses! The main image is cut out with Lg. Classic & Scallop Rectangle Nestabilities. I stamped him with Palette Burnt Umber and then colored him in with Koh-i-noor pencils and OMS. I paper pieced the book cover on. It was either the book cover or the shorts, but I liked it on the book better! To the side, I added a Creamy Caramel eyelet and tied on some Celery grosgrain. The decorative paper is again from my fabulous secret sis Debbie. I cut it out using a Lg. Classic Square Nestability, then I cut it in half. To add a little somethin', somethin' around the edges, I took my mat pack and paper piercer and poked some holes. Then added some faux stitching with my white gel pen. He's such a cute nerd!!! Happy Stamping.

Relax Riley

Just a quick card to share with y'all today. It's for a guy, so I tried to keep it simple on the embellishments. This is some of the fabulous pattern paper that my secret sis' Debbie sent me the other day. It worked perfect for the image I wanted to use. The main images are cut out with Lg. Classic & Scallop Square Nestabilities. My Riley is stamped with Palette Burnt Umber. I then colored him in with Koh-i-noor pencils and OMS. You can't see it in the picture, but I covered the cupcake icing with Crystal Effects. The green strip is actually the back side of the pattern paper. Yea, I love double sided paper so I don't have to worry about matchin' colors! To finish it off, I sponged Palette Burnt Umber around the edges and tied on some chocolate Polytwill. My card measures 3 3/8 x 5 1/4. Happy Stamping!

Aloha Riley

Is it possible to be jealous of a stamp? I so wish I was swinging in a hammock, sippin' cold drinks on the beach at the moment! Okay, daydream over - on to the card. I used this sketch that I found on Maria's blog. My Riley is stamped with Palette Noir. I then colored him in with my Koh-i-noor pencils and OMS. I added a little shimmer by using some Twinkling H2Os to punch up the shading. The colors I used were Pink Azalea and Key Lime. I just brushed them on with my Niji Waterbrush! The top of the palm trees are cut out and raised with a dimensional. What can I say, some people like ribbon, some like glitter, others like hardware. I like to cut things out and raise them :) I just like that extra dimension it gives your card. The paper, cardstock and ribbon are all from the Lilly Anna collection from TAC. Perfect colors for summer and beach cards! I glued the Hydrangia Dew Drops on with my Mono Multi glue. It dries clear so you can't see a thing and it holds like cement! My sentiment is from A Muse. I cut it out using my circle and oval Coluzzle. It is also raised with a dimensional. I swear I might have a disorder. I have 7 cards on my desk and out of those 5 have raised parts. Hope y'all have a great day!

Christmas in July

Frances posted this wonderful sketch challenge over in the Hanna Stamps forum on SCS. As an extra challenge, she asked us to make it a Christmas card. I don't think I have ever made a Christmas card this early before. I'm just going to have to remember where I put it once December rolls around! This gave me a chance to ink up one of my new Riley stamps. He is stamped on Very Vanilla with Palette Burnt Umber. I then colored him in with my Koh-i-noor pencils and OMS. The tree is cut out and raised with a dimensional. The main image is cut out using my circle Coluzzle. I positioned it so his antler would stick out at the top. The next circle was cut with a combo of the circle Coluzzle and my Magic Matter. The scallop circle is made using my Giga punch. I also broke open my new Christmas paper from TAC called Reece. Love those colors together!!! I poked some holes along the cranberry strip with my paper piercer. The sentiment is from a retired TAC set called Chicken Scratch. Thanks for stopping by!

Fishing Riley

It's been awhile since I've used one of my Riley stamps. I just love coloring him! But before we get to that, let me tell y'all about the layout. I found this card by Amy months ago on her blog and loved the layout. I immediately saved it and finally put it to good use today. Now back to Riley. He is stamped on watercolor paper with Palette Noir. I then used my markers and an aquapainter to watercolor him in. Here is a fabulous tutorial!
I sponged the edges of the Kraft and Barely Banana cardstock with Close to Cocoa. Stamped the Flannel Plaid background in Garden Green on Wild Wasabi paper. Then glued on my dew drops and added some ribbon. Speaking of ribbon, I just got that Kraft Taffeta in and I luff it! I'm seriously addicted to taffeta ribbon. It ties easily and lays very smoothly! Happy Friday the 13th.

Riley Bahama

I named this card Riley Bahama because the colors remind me of Tommy Bahama clothes, LOL. It is a unique color combo, but when they all came together it worked. This weekend my friend Rach has been hosting a Chatapalooza for all of the LOStie sistahs over on SCS. Not only have we chatted, but there were several challenges issued. I was only able to participate in Rach's challenge yesterday which was to make a simple, Island themed card. I immediately turned to Riley! He is stamped with Palette Noir on watercolor paper. I then colored him in with SU markers and lightened it a tad with an aquapainter. I added Stickles to the trees and margarita!! The Barely Banana CS is stamped with the Flannel Plaid background in Summer Sun. I just love those 2 colors together. Oh and the card measures 6 x 3.5!!

Tractor Riley

Howdy and happy Friday!!! Thought I would use another new Riley image today. I just had to get this one. I mean I'm from Texas. Seeing tractors and farmers are a norm around here so I know I will get a ton of use out of this stamp. I also used Beate's Weekend Sketch Challenge for my layout! Worked perfectly for what I had in mind. My Riley is stamped on watercolor paper with Palette Noir. I then colored him in with SU markers and an Niji waterbrush. I'm so happy with how my shadowing came out on the wheels. I added some Stickles to the smoke and a little Queen & Co. brad in the corner to finish it off. The entire image is raised with a dimensional. I took the Flannel Plaid background, inked it in Summer Sun and stamped it on Barely Banana. OMGoodness, I LOVE those colors together!!! I new that I wanted to use this little A Muse Wheat stamp with my new Riley. So I inked it in Garden Green and randomly stamped it on Certainly Celery. Doesn't it look like he is plowing in the field? I used the slot punch on the top and bottom of the Celery and ran some Chocolate Taffeta through it. Oh before I go, I wanted to share a recipe with y'all. I made Creamy Pasta Primavera last night for dinner. YUM and it was so easy to put together. The red pepper and asparagus really gave it a nice flavor. I also used whole wheat penne! Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!!!

Hammock Riley

I just got some new Riley images in and I couldn't wait to ink this one up. It's so super cute!!!! Don't you wish you were chillin' on the beach like this at the moment? My friend Tammi sent me an Easter card out of this batch in her gallery. She always does fabulous designs and I just had to use this layout. Can you pick my card out in the back? Her gallery is a great place to visit for inspiration!! My Riley is stamped on watercolor paper with Palette Noir. I then used SU markers and a Niji waterbrush to color everything in. I added some Stickles to the palm tree leaves and the lime. The entire image is raised with a dimensional. I used scallop scissors on the Creamy Caramel and that's the giga scallop circle punch. Thanks for stopping by and Happy Stamping!!!

Cozy Happy Bday

Did y'all see that Kristi released a bunch more Riley images on Hanna Stamps the other day? They are all so darn cute. I can't wait for my order to get here. Bev issued this sketch challenge over on SCS in the Hanna Stamps forum. Such a great layout for those square cards that I love to make. My Riley is stamped on watercolor paper. I colored him with SU markers and a Niji waterbrush. The coffeecup is cut out and raised with a dimensional. See his horns and how they stick out from the circle? It was easy to do. I just put my circle Coluzzle over the image and used my blade to cut right up to his horns and in between. Then I just took my scissors and cut around the horns. Cute huh? The whole scallop image is raised with a dimensional as well. To mimic the polka dots on the chair, I ran the Mellow Moss piece through the Cuttlebug with the Swiss Dots folder. I think it turned out to be a great guy card! Thanks for the inspiration Bev!!! Hope everyone has a lovely Easter weekend. If you are traveling, have a safe trip. I'm off to bake a carrot cake.

Irish Flag Riley

Hi, hope everyone is staying dry in their neck of the woods. I say that because it has been raining here all day. My voice is totally shot. It keeps coming and going, but that didn't stop me from trying out Amy's sketch challenge. Isn't this a neat layout? I had this image laying on the desk beggin' to be colored. My Riley's are stamped with Palette Noir on watercolor paper. I then colored them in with SU markers and a Niji waterbrush. The gold and buckle are colored with Summer Sun. I then went over them with a Sakura Stardust pen. Now speaking of colors, I know this might seem kinda out there at first glance. However, it does have some thought behind it, LOL. Green, white and orange are the colors of the Irish flag. Yep I was skeptical at first too, but I like how it came together. I used River Rock as an accent color. I ran the two pieces of River Rock cardstock through the Cuttlebug using the Tiny Bubbles folder. To make it stand out more, I used a sponge dauber and went over it with Chocolate Chip ink. Looks like a little pebbled road! Thanks for stoppin' by!!

The O'Riley Clan

I'm having too much fun with my Riley stamps. Can you tell? This if for Hanna Stamps Challenge 4 and Hanna Stamps Challenge 5. Talk about mega inspiration. If you haven't tried this color combo yet, you need to. It's wunderbar!!! I started by stamping my Clover Riley on watercolor paper with Palette Burnt Umber. I then stamped another one on a post-it note and cut it out for a mask so I could stamp St. Patty Beer Riley next to it. The image is colored in with SU markers and an aquapainter. I went over the buckle and gold with a Sakura Stardust pen. The flannel is stamped in Garden Green on Wild Wasabi cardstock. Happy Stamping!
