December SheetLoad Sneak Peak

The December '09 issue of SheetLoad of Cards is looking like it will be one of the biggest and best ever!! We have a wonderful digital stamp company sponsoring this issue and many artists from their team, as well as ours, joined in on the fun. Be sure to head over to SheetLoad to check out the sneak peaks!

SheetLoad Simple Special Stunning

It is time for the November edition of Simple Special Stunning at the SheetLoad of Cards blog, featuring samples by Ann Seleshanko.

Each month one of our artists will share three different cards that use the current layout. Each card is a "step up" from the previous one, but they are all fabulous. It is a good way to show how SheetLoad is geared toward papercrafters of all levels. Here are some sneak peeks to whet your appetite...

SheetLoad - Autumn Blessings, Cast All Your Cares & Enjoy The Moment

Today I have three cards to share with you from the November issue of Sheetload. First up is one of my favorites! It uses Papertrey Ink Autumn Blessings stamp set. Fall is one of my favorite seasons and I just love all the colors of leaves!

Next we have the card that really started my inspiration for the sketch. It's just a flat card, so no fold over on this one. It's really hard to see, but on the right hand side i used a stamp from Papertrey Ink Damask Designs along with Versamark Dazzle Ink.

The final card I have for you today also uses a Papertrey Ink stamp sets; Mega Mixed Messages & Guidelines II. The beautiful humming bird is Inkadinkadoo.

Happy Holiday's!!!!!

Here's a closer look at the first card I created for the November issue of SheetLoad. I've used one of my favorite stamp companies on this one, Papertrey Ink. It features Stocking Prints, Polka Dot Basics, and Simply Stationary. Can you guess where the Simply Stationary comes in? Leave a comment with you guess by Saturday, 8:00 am Central. I'll use a random generator to select a winner for a little surprise from me.

Thanks for stopping by!

Blogger Issues

Update: This is a known issue by Blogger and it is currently under investigation. Ugh! I am having issues with blogger. Since the weekend it has placed my sidebar info on the bottom. If anyone has had this happen before, pleaes let me know how you fixed it. In the mean time, the blog will be under construction. Thanks!

Is it really November?

Happy Saturday! I can't believe it's november, because it's 71 outside. Keep in mind, just a couple of weeks ago it was in the 40's. I have been a bit of a Betty Crocker today. I baked my favorite cookie recipe, made a sandwich ring and some ranch dip and veggies. Here's a few cards I made last weekend. When I was in Colordao several weeks ago visiting my mom I managed to find the one of the only stamp stores in Canon City. While there I picked up some Bliss Mist (a type of shimmery mist). I've sprayed the colored cardstock on these cards with the Whipped Honey Butter color. The pictures don't do it justice, but you can see a hint of shimmer below the ribbon. I just love this vase of mums. It's from the Autumn Abundance set from Papertrey Ink. I've also used Vintage Labels and Damask Designs. All very versitle stamps sets. If you click on the pictures to enlarge them you get a great view of the shimmer! Thanks for stopping by! I hope you enjoy your weekend!
