valentine treat for you:)

pucker up baby! aren't you lovin' the new release! here i used a square envelope and punched a heart through it. kinda like cupid:) then inserted a glassine envelope filled with m&m's. the paper's are a popsicle pink notecard cut to size and a pink gingham heart. mr. crab is puckering up for smooch...s.w.a.k.

peek a boo!

i lovvvvve the new coral stamp!! i used the new mini-fishes and new sentiment. it's hard to see in this pic but the white waves are really mirrored paper. i'm such a fantastic photographer...NOT:) add a little ocean ribbon, blue gingham paper and a heart twinkle and there you have it. stay warmmm!

so wrong, so right?

happy new year!! how do you like baby new year? i think he's pretty cute. now i would never give a baby champagne. although my parent's tell me that gave me some when i was 2 and thought it was hilarious. me not so much!!
i wish all of you a very wonderful new year, full of many stamping and a muse days!! don't forget to look at our new sea of love release :)

sea of love for kiddies

it's that wonderful time again, a new a muse release!! you are going to "sea" it and love it:D i've always had a strange obsession with jellyfish. every aquarium i go to, i am just mesmerized. there's nothing to them yet they're intelligent and you can see through them:)
here i used our pink gingham paper and hand cut seaweed out of a palm green notecard.
we fabulous new images and cutie sentiments. please check out the other instructor and designer blogs to see they whipped up.

easy peasy tags!

The A muse website is featuring "holiday tags". Here's is my lil ol' contribution. i used a mix of trees that A Muse has. a bit of glitter and buffalo snow, love that stuff! i thought hmm trees, recycling...so i ripped some paper off the lunchbag, stamped on it and voila. simple but fun:) check the other wonderful tags on A Muse.

it's shimmer time!

my photography skills do not do justice to these beautiful shimmer papers! today's the day for a muse's stationery release. i've used the mango damask shimmer paper with the paprika notecard. happy thanksgiving is new sentiment as well a the white polka dot ribbon. i also used the solid pumpkin and vine border from past releases. there is some glitter on the vine that you can't see from the pic. i decided to make the pumpkin green, i just love those funky colored funny shaped ones:) i hope you all have enjoyed seeing all of the a muse's peeks and have been inspired!! ohhh, don't forget the latte pearls here too!
