Thanks for all the wonderful comments. I wish I had a set to give each of you but promise there will be more giveaways :-)

A Simple Sympathy Card

Hi Everyone,

Today I have a quick card to show you. Someone in our church just lost her husband this past week and I wanted to make a sympathy card for her and her family. Sympathy cards are the hardest for me because I never want to over embellish and take away the focus of the message inside.

I used my gypsy and Storybook cartridge to create this super simple card. I love how the black makes it stand out just enough from the blue without taking over the whole card. I used "Pink by Designs Scripted Year" for the sentiment.

Also, I never heard back from the second name that I drew so this is what I have decided to do. Leave a comment on this post with a way to get a hold of you. Tomorrow evening I will use Random.org to pick a winner of the "Pink by Design" Stamps. I really didn't think it would be this difficult to do a giveaway :-)

Have a wonderful Friday!

Rebekah

Bunco Anyone??

Hi Everyone,

I recently joined a monthly Bunco group and I am hosting this month. Of course, I had to add a little craftiness. I decided to make Bunco Score Sheet Notebooks. I found all of the paper and ribbon at Hobby Lobby. The sparkly pink brad was in the dollar section at Target a few months ago. I used my "Bind it All" to put it all together. Each notebook holds 40 3x5 index cards. I think they will be a fun addition to our group :-)

Have a great day!

Rebekah

Sarah over at http://www.pinkcricut.com/ so graciously donated her "Scripted Year" Stamp set that I am giving away to one VERY LUCKY follower! I love this stamp set and use it everyday!


I am working hard to do a daily post with some type of card, layout or project! I am on facebook under Creatively Crafty and post there whenever I update my blog. I would love to see you over there :-)



Before I announce the winner, I wanted to post a card I just completed the other day for a wedding I am going to in April. I know, way ahead of time but I had to create it while it was fresh in my mind! The cartridge I used was Simply Charmed. I embossed it with my hearts Cuttlebug folder and the ribbon is from Hobby Lobby. The little heart embellishment is from Michaels. The sentiment is (you guessed it) "Scripted Year" by Pink by Design!

And Now for the Winner:

"Birthday Bash" Birthday card

Hi Everyone,

One of my good friends has a birthday coming up this weekend and I wanted to make her a special card. I wasn't sure what to do until I saw that Scrappy moms stamps were starting Terrific Tuesday Challenges twice a month on their blog. The theme for this challenge was Birthday Bash.

I found this adorable little bird sitting on a banner and thought it would be perfect. I cut it at 3 inches and and added some buttons and twine to finish it off.

I hope she likes it!

Have a great day!

Rebekah
