Hello... Sorry for the late posting. I worked 10hrs today, so just a little tired. It's only a little after 8pm here, but I'm turning in after I get this in. The orange card is today's card, inspired by the yellow card I made in september for a color challenge @ play date cafe. It was chosen as one of the top 4. thanks for stopping by, Sam
Hello again.... Busy night here. Trying to get a few cards posted in between bath time and bedtime... kiddos are in bed, I'm heading there next.... can't go to work sleepy. So here's my take on cas-ual fridays #36 black and white challenge. I have to say I really struggled with this one.... I wanted to put a lucious purple silk ribbon on it... but even without the color I'm happy with the result. Have a great night, be sure to stop by again... Sam

Have a great night , Sam ..... P.S stay tuned for a give away .
Greetings! I'm up and at it early today... trying to get everything done I can before work tomorrow. I have to take my little boys to get new shoes today... feet not so little. It should be fun. This is my take on the ghost masking challenge @ PTI this week. I had fun trying a few different stamps before I settled on this. I wanted one to stand out and be different. Hope you like it, Sam
Hi! I'm back with a card for this week's challnge @ Case study... I love that they use an actual card for the inspiration and not a photo. I'm currently making cards for Operation write home and my goal is to send them 100 cards... so I'd better get busy. Have a great day, Sam
Hello, happy sunday morning to you. Getting ready to start my day of erands soon. This is my take on Play date cafe's color challnge. I just picked up this paper ack on monday and have already used it on several projects.... it's from the lost and found sunshine pack. I adore all 6x6 paper packs. I saw someone was giving several away on her blog.... I was drooling over them. I find one I like and I'll use it until it's gone. I try not to hoard them. Have a good day, Sam
This is my take on the "map to your heart" challenge going on @ Moxie Fab World. I picked up this little cuttlebug globe for super cheap @ Oh my crafts. Have you checked out their store? The prices are crazy . I loaded up on some cuttlebug items. Have a great day, Sam
Greetings ! I finally made it home from work, usually friday night it takes me 25-30 min to get home tonight a lovely 2hrs. We are having "the big" snow storm... or so they said on the news. I made this card for the "Our Creative Corner"paper piecing with atwist challenge. I chose to do something , sunny and cheerful since it's anything but that putside right now. Hoping you are warm and cozy tonight, Sam
Hello, on snow watch here in the chicago area..... We have had very little so far this season, so people are all a buzz about the predicted snow coming our way. While checking out the challenges today I saw that Our Creative Corner has a design team call.. hmm? I like to challenge myself to try new things, so here goes. I made this card for the call, this is what I feel is my "style" , fabulous papers highlighted by a stamped sentiment. Hope they like it, and best wishes to all that put themselves out there to try out for one of the team spots. Sam
Hello. Today's card is for 2 challenges.... Make it monday @ PTI and also the color challenge @ Lily Pad Cards. I made this while on the phone with my friend Jen, who's hubby lost 4 friends from his unit in Afganistan on friday. Sad . Going to hug my guys extra tight tonight. Sam
