Clean & Simple #99 Challenge

I bought this Really Nice/realistic Cockatoo stamp at the stamp show, and have been wanting to use it! :-) And i had this woodgrain ribbon in stock, to match the branch :-) I used 3.5 x 6" as this sketch's original size. It's kinda nice to make a card other than 4.25 x 5.5" regular size, for a change :-)

The Play Date Cafe Challenge PDCC38

I always luv the colors the play date cafe challenge ask for. Of course, it doesn't mean that i come up with a great idea, using those colors, every week. Sometimes, it frustrates me cuz i can't come up with the design, even i think those color combination are Beautiful! Anyways, here is my card. I luv Purple flowers, all kinds :-)

HM Anniversary card to my HM club online friend

When we know each other for a long time, in the same club, it's a bit difficult to come up with the idea to suprise the recipient, esp. now i don't have many HM stamps here with me. Anyways, i made this card, using a half of one of HM stamp. Background's small heart is from Victorine Originals (i stamped it many times), and the "champagne glasses" is from Penny black. Both are rather old stamps, but i've been using that champagne glasses A LOT! I just luv that design!! I also used glossy accents inside of the glasses. And of course, i stamped Happy Anniversary, inside of the card.

"Let's Get Fruity!"...Simon says..

This weeks' challenge is "fruits". I stamped the small apple stamp (CTMH) in red & brown (stem) many times to make a background paper. I used crystal lacquer for the seeds. ...so... WHAT'S UP??!! :-)

Clean & Simple challenge #98

This is my card for this Sketch. It's hard to see but the background paper has marble design. It doesn't show it in pic. very well though...:-( I luv to make Thank You cards :-)

House Mouse Monday Challenge #73

"Happy Birthday to Miss. America!!" That's the week's theme. I thought i was really DONE with Red, White & Blue, bue when i heard Miss America's name, i had to make ANOTHER one! LOL! but of course, with our lovely Mice! :-) Anyways, Happy Birthday, Miss America!

Happy 4th of July!!

For today's celebration, i made the same cake i made last year, and again, it was a big hit! Here is the pic., and the recipe from Kraft. If you love berries, like i do, you'll love this cake, and for this celebration, it looks good too. Underneath of the white whipped cream, it's the strawberry flavored jello, folding sliced strawberries and blueberries. On the bottom of the cake, it's a layer of pound cake. It's very yummy!
