InStyle Stamps Blog Hop

Hi there,

Welcome to the October InStyle Stamps Blog Hop!! Before I get to the Hop details I just want to let you all know that I had a follow-up with my doctor yesterday and she says that my bronchitis is much better and that the meds are working well, so I will be as good as new soon. That works for me cause that means no more coughing and whizzing for me, horray, and just in time for Halloween, yeah!!!! Now lets get back to it!!

This months hop theme is Set the Table. InStyle Stamps has release some great stamps this month!! They have release a line called Recipe and those are some of the images you will be seeing today in my post.

Since this months hop theme is Set the Table I thought to myself, "You can't set the table if you don't have a meal to set the table for, right??", so for my project I made Recipe Cards and a Recipe Box to store your recipes in.

Enjoy!!!!

Now head on over to Mary's blog to continue your way on the hop. If you didn't come here from Virginia's blog then head on over to the InStyle Stamps Blog to start at the start of the ISS blog hop.

Bizzy Becs Creatalicious Challenges DT Call

Creatalicious Challenges is looking for 2 more people to join their Design Team, anyone can apply and it is also open to Overseas Residents. The term will be for 6 months. With making Monthly Cards or Creations for the set Challenges..


Their Challenge blog is an anything and everything Challenge blog.

The DT call will close on 7th August 2009 so you have 2 days to send in your entries.

They have provided this sketch to the left for your entry.

I figured I would give the sketch a try and enter my card into the DT Call. I haven't played with my new Sugar Nellie stamps so I decided to ink Reflective up for the first time. I love this new (well new to me) Mimosa Paper from S.E.I., it so pretty. I figured it would go well with this stamp.

So I put it all together and here is what I came up with. Enjoy!!!




I hope you like it as much as I do, I think it came out a lot better than I had envisioned.

Birthday Cake

Hey everyone,
I hope you guys all enjoyed your weekend, I know I did. I went to Pleasanton for the Scrapbook Expo and got a few cool things including some cool Shimmerz, I can't wait to use them. A bunch of friends and I celebrated by roommate and good friends birthday we had a blast. So today I share some of the birthday cards that I made for the event. Here favorite color is green so I did two different green paper in hopes that one would be the perfect one for her, and they both came out very nicely.

Enjoy, I'll hopefully have some more for you later this week. Thanks for stopping by!!!!
