I am a ditz…

… at heart still.  I completely forgot to pick a winner for the stamp set from last week!  Der.  I am so sorry.  But better late than never.  The winner of the Close To My Heart stamp set is Holly!  I will email you. 🙂

Hey… if I owe anyone a prize or CD of Keith's and you haven't gotten it yet, please email me.  My greatest fear is that something gets lost in the mail and someone never gets it.  Would hate for that to happen!

A few random things…

On my post from yesterday, a few people asked what white pen I used.  It was the white Sharpie pen.  Worked pretty well.

Someone also asked if you can use Cuttlebug embossing folders with the Big Shot.  I believe you can.  I would recommend doing a google search – there is likely even a youtube video on it.

I have gotten emails about the yummy silk ribbon.  It is from Creative Impressions – I believe you can buy it from their site!

Want some amazing inspiration?  Be sure to watch Hero Arts Blog this week.  Shari is sharing some amazing stuff.  Wow.

Just a quick card share using a new Hero Arts stamp.  I did this for the catalog work but didn't like how it turned out so I never sent it in. :)  It is a transparent Hero Arts card over a Chocolate Hero Arts notecard.  Yum.  Love that look.  (The card just took a turn for the worse when I started embellishing… hee. 🙂

Night!

  1. i love the embellishing on the card! if you only saw the stuff that takes “turns for the worse” off my desk. lol! i’m working on winter holiday stuff too … doesn’t seem right when it’s 100 degrees out. lol!

  2. I don’t know what you are talking about, its a great card! I do not think you could make a bad card if you tried!!

    Well done Holly on winning the stamps!

  3. Thanks for sharing that card Jennifer. That DesignBlock stamp is one of my favs from the latest Hero catalogue. Very jealous of your summer day – here in NZ it is Tuesday afternoon & outside my office window is wind, rain, hail & thunder!

  4. LOVE that card! The pinks go SO well with the chocolate brown!! I love the stamps too. I’ve been eying those hearts and that background stamp is one of the 2 I’m REALLY wanting to get my hands on. The Hero Arts wish list keeps growing! 🙂

  5. I love this card,the colors are so perfect. Are the new stamps available yet?
    Glad to see your back blogging, yours is the first one I read in the morning.
    Love your work.

    P.S I e-mailed you regarding the CD.

  6. Way to go Holly!!! Enjoy your gift:)

    Love the colors on the card. Still a lovely card to my eyes. Glad you did not toss it.

    I was just thinking yesterday morning I should think about a Christmas design for our family card. However, that is as far as I went, a thought. Hard to think about snow, Christmas cookies, trees and gifts when we have great swimming weather here.

  7. Hi, your card rocks! A transparent Hero Arts card? I am going to have to find me some of those!!! 🙂

    As for using Cuttlebug Embossing Folders in a Big Shot…you most certainly can!!!! After all your enabling I went out and bought a ton of them. They are my new addiction. 🙂 I just found the dots one! So happy! 🙂

    Thank you for all your sharing, videos and enabling! 🙂

  8. Congrats on winning the CTMH Stamp set, Holly! Yay!

    Jennifer, you always make me wonder how MY cards and pages look when you don’t like things you do that I think are great. Are you a super-perfectionist or what?! That card is beautiful!

  9. Loved Ken’s pics of St. John and ahhhh the smoothie stand-the best smoothies in the WORLD.

    We’ve been to St John a few times too and we found it on a cruise the same way you did..you’re making me want to go back with those pictures…

  11. If you saw the wrong turns my cards make….. ewwwwww. I wish my wrong turns looked this good. Great card Jennifer.
    And it’s too hot to think holidays … but did you realize Christmas is 5 months from tomorrow ! ! ! YIKES
