So, I was looking through some of My Pink Stamper stamps so I could join in their first blog hop {Check it out Here}.  When I saw the "I Moose You" stamp it immediately made me think about my long lost friend in Alaska. Just about every other day I log onto Facebook and she has something posted about moose (mooses?? meese?? lol pretty sure moose is right), either they are in her yard, her husband hit one, they are eating on Lol... and the list goes on. So I figured I would make her a card to say hello and that I 'moose' her.  =-)

The moose is from Animal Kingdom cut at 2 3/4 inches

The card and circles are cut from Wild Card

She is not really a girly girl, and rarely uses/wears pink; so I used her favorite colors.  I think it came pretty cute... Very her. =-)

The Few.The Proud

So today was the first day of classes for Spring 2011 semester; however due to inclement weather (snow) classes were canceled!  So, I had some fun in my craft room!

One of the first things I did is a layout based off this sketch from ArtfulDelight.  It is the first time I have worked with a sketch, and I really enjoyed it.

This is the sketch...

And this is my layout...

This is for my brother who is getting deployed to Afghanistan in March.  We love him dearly and will miss him, and though we would rather him not go we are more than proud of him.

His name was cut out from Plantin Schoolbook and the stickers are K&Company.

I also had some fun with doing cards, and my hubby even got in on the fun!  He wanted to make a couple to send to the fam, so we did.

This one makes me smile!  

The chicken is from Animal Kingdom and the stamp is from MPS Even More Punny-licous

Jacob couldn't get the hang of stamping, and instead of redoing it he just went over it with a Sharpie...Lol.  Hey, whatever works... 

Again the dog is from Animal Kingdom and the sentiment is Even More Punny-licous.

Not your traditional baby card I must admit, but hey thats why its called a Wild Card.

All from Wild Card.

This fun card is for my Brother-in-law who just had back surgery.

All cuts are from Life is a Beach.

Thanks for stopping by!

Another Layout! Yeah! Is there a such thing as blog stalking? Because I may have done that to see how others make these. Lol.. Just saying. Seriously though, I love seeing other's ideas and interpretations of projects and challenges.

For this page I used several different cartridges:

Dove: Winter Woodland at 4 inches

Branch: Serenade at around 2 inches

Words: Wild Card at 3.5 for Hope and 2.25 for Genesis

Scalloped background: Designers Calender at 8.5 by 11

The scalloped circle: Winter Woodland at 3.75

* I also cut the picture of the flower at 3.5 from Winter Woodland

The patterned paper is from K&Company and I believe it is called Faded China.  It is doubled sided and I used the same sheet for this page.
