Post for FactoryDirectCraft.com

Hi!  I know I was Posty Mcposterson earlier in the week and then nothing... hehehe! Life has been a little busy, I'm starting a new venture, that I will be happily sharing on here soon and I also have been working on some DT things/ publishing calls with lots of fingers crossed, so hopefully I will get some crafting in on Sunday so I can have lots to share with you...

I do however have a post for you to look at, but it is a Guest Designer spot so I would greatly appreciate any comments you have over on their page:  http://factorydirectcraft.com/factorydirectcraft_blog/quick-and-easy-no-sew-tutu-dress/   Plus you can see cute pictures of my little one while there, yay! 

And some reminders of challenges you might want to join in:
V's Sweet Ideas: Baby Challenge (Fresh Sqeezed Stamps is sponsoring)
SweetStamps.com: Rose Challenge ($20 shopping spree to their store)


Thanks so much and have a Happy Weekend!
Happy Crafting too!

The Rose Challenge at SweetStamps.com

Would you love to win $20 to spend on crafting goodies?  I know I sure would!  And you can easily do this by entering this weeks challenge at SweetStamps.com: Roses... I love roses in the summer time and I have 3 rose bushes along the side of my house, so this was a fun challenge for me.  (Not to mention all of the gorgeous rose stamps sweetstamps.com offers! LOVE them!)  Here is my take on this week's challenge:

Supplies:
Patterned Paper: Glitz
Stamps: SweetStamps.com (rose and leaf and Have A Beautiful Day)
Ink: Memento
Die: Memory Box
Rhinestones: Zva Creative
Spray Ink: Tsukeino

Can't wait to see what you make, and remember you can use any stamps at all... no rose stamps?  Then head to SweetStamps.com and choose from a ton of options!  You might just find more than that there hehehehe!
Happy Crafting!

Happy Monday with a Sweet Card made in 10!

Hello and Happy Monday!  We had a great (and very busy) weekend, traveling to Tennessee for a college friend's wedding ( go U.D.!!!), touring Nashville, and just catching up on everyone's lives!  It was awesome to say the least!  Now I'm back to share a cute and happy little card I made for the latest 10 Minute Craft Dash... if you have not joined in on one of these challenges I strongly encourage you to do so.  Not only is the genius (lovely Paulina) behind these challenges one amazing and sweet person, but the challenges themselves are are great and it is fun to work "under pressure" for sure.  Here is what I made this time around...

Time reads: 8 min. 43 secs woot woot! 

Supplies Used:
Cardstock: Cardstock.com
Stamps: Jane's Doodles
Ink: Memento, Shades Ink Spots by SweetStamps.com, and Versamark
Washi Tape
Sequins: V's Sweet Ideas
3D Foam Squares: Therm-o-web

I am also entering this into the Simon Says Stamp Challenge: Fruit

And I wanted to give you a heads up, especially to those who subscribe to my blog via email that you will be seeing lots of posts here tomorrow... one for the newest SweetStamps.com challenge ( find out what this weeks challenge is and how you can win a $20 gc to their store! score! ), and since it will be the 25th I have a few posts going up for the Papertrey Ink Blog Hop so sorry if you get bombarded from me tomorrow, but it will be well worth it to take a look at it all!

Happy Crafting!
