World's Greatest Guy

Happy Tuesday stampers!

 

It's time for a little inspiration challenge over at Hand Stamped Sentiments.

These pictures gave me some great inspiration to create my hubby's birthday card.  I always seem to make him a birthday card with some sort of deer since hunting season always kicks off shortly after his birthday each year. Combining Always An Adventure with the Merry Tags Framelits made for the perfect card!

 

Supplies Used:

Paper ~ Pacific Point, Pool Party, Whisper White, Old Olive, Sahara Sand, Garden Green, Crumb Cake, Kraft

Ink ~ Pacific Point, Basic Black

Stamp Sets ~ Labeler Alphabet, Greatest Greetings, Always An Adventure

Other Supplies ~ Woodland Embossing Folder, Outdoor Adventure Framelits, Merry Tags Framelits, Burlap Ribbon

 

I loved how this card turned out and my hubby loved it too!

Dino Adventure Birthday

Happy Friday stampers!

 

And Happy 5th Birthday to my baby boy!  It seems crazy that my sweet boy is already 5...time goes by way too fast!

 

With the craziness of our house selling and getting ready to move, we didn't make any firm birthday party plans since we had no idea where we would be when his birthday rolled around.  I've got a little mom guilt going on because of this, but we will be making up for it when we get moved to our new house with and end of summer party.  We decided we would just have one big party to celebrate his birthday, my hubby's birthday, the new house and everything else we have missed this summer!  We aren't letting today go uncelebrated though!  We are headed to the pool today to have some fun and will have a little family dinner tonight at his favorite pizza place.

 

Owen has grown up in my craft room and can always be found at my feet playing with his toys while I stamp.  He always wants to know who I'm making a card for and when my next stamp club is so he can see all my stamping friends, who he has made sure are all his friends too!  I asked him what kind of birthday card he wanted this year and he was quick to tell me he wanted a T-Rex card.   He's 100% boy and loves his dinosaurs :)

 

 

Supplies Used:

Paper ~ Smoky Slate, Cucumber Crush, Basic Gray, Whisper White, Tangerine Tango, Basic Black, Real Red, Neutrals DSP, Window Sheet

Ink ~ Cucumber Crush, Bermuda Bay, Smoky Slate, Tangerine Tango, Real Red, Basic Black

Stamp Sets ~ No Bones About It, Always An Adventure, Number of Years, Labeler Alphabet

Other Supplies ~ Layering Squares Framelits, Outdoor Adventures Framelits, Large Numbers Framelits, Brights Sequins, Sprinkles Punch

 

I had so much fun creating the volcano background for the T-Rex!  It's always awesome when you can find two unrelated items and put them together to make a super fun card!

 

Thanks for stopping by today!

Spirit of Walla Walla ~ Monday Montage



Welcome back to Monday Montage!!!  We are back with another fabulous hop!  Make sure you click on the links below so you don't miss any of the creations...you are sure to love them all!

My poor stamps and blog have been so neglected the past couple of weeks....boo!  Between running kids back and forth to baseball games/camps and wrapping up the sale of our house, there hasn't been much crafty time in my life!

I did get myself out of bed early this morning to sneak in a little stamping time and was able to put this super fun card together!  The Always An Adventure Bundle was a must have for me!  Living at the base of the Blue Mountains with tons of lakes close by, this bundle reminds me of home!  And the hot air balloon was the perfect addition to this set, especially since our little town hosts a Balloon Stampede every year!

Supplies Used:
Paper ~ Pool Party, Crumb Cake, Marina Mist, Old Olive, Garden Green, Pumpkin Pie, Whisper White
Ink ~ Pumpkin Pie, Marina Mist, Early Espresso, Real Red, Daffodil Delight, Old Olive, Pacific Point, Rich Razzelberry, Melon Mambo
Stamp Set ~ Always An Adventure
Other Supplies ~ Outdoor Adventures Framelits

Keep your fingers crossed that the sale of our home is all wrapped up at the end of this week!  It's been a long and stressful process, but the end is in sight!  And with lots of luck and prayers, we will be moving by the end of the month...hooray!

Next stop on the hop is Cathy...I can't wait to see what she has for us this week! Or if you want to hop backwards, you can hop on back to the amazing Amy...I just love her style!

  Thanks for hopping along with us today!

Happy Stamping!
