Inky Impressions Grand Opening & Blog Hop



I am SO excited to announce the Grand Opening of Inky Impressions! Wait until you see these fabulous stamps, you are going to LOVE them!!The images are simply adorable and the quality & detail is exceptional! Each stamp is "EXTRA deep etched" on quality red rubber for a crisp, clean impression every time!

To celebrate the Grand Opening of Inky Impressions, the Inspirational Inkettes are participating in a blog hop, to inspire you with the new Inky Impression rubber stamp line. If you didn't start the blog hop at the beginning, then you want to head back to Nicole's Blog
(she is Inky's Mama) so you do not miss anything. Be sure to follow the blog hop all the way to the end, for a chance to win some yummy blog candy!

My first project for you is a card.I used basic grey dp, and colored away. What a great image. She definately reminds me of Nicole, the owner, of Inky Impressions.




My second project is a altered pocket calender. I just covered the outside with pattern paper and added my image and this is what I came up with. I think they would make great gifts for christmas, or teachers. Very easy to do.

So, How cute are are these images?



Next head over to Inspirational Inkette Christine to see what fabulous inspiration she has for you. Have a great day and check back tomorrow for the first ever Inky Impressions DT challenge.

I hope you have a great day and have fun with the blog hop. Happy Creating!

Three Clover Thursday challenge



This weeks challenge is to make a card or project for Dad (or man), and use metal. Brads, hinges, or whatever.

My card today is made using a image from The Digi Shack. I combined that with some of my new Basic Grey paper, and added my metal (brads). I don't often make masculine cards, but when I do, I really enjoy doing them.



I am trying to use up my scraps and decorate the inside of my cards as well. I used a SU INK sentiment for the inside of the card. This card will be going to my dad. He owns a boat and loves the ocean, so this will be perfect.

This Digi image from Digi Shack is new and is a part of a digi pack. Great images and really cheap. You should check them out! I hope you have a wonderful Thursday and happy creating. If you feel like playing, head on over to Kerry's blog and play along!

Whachadoin Wednesday with SU INK



Happy Wednesday all....Wednesdays mean Whachadoin Wednesday challenge over at SU INK. This week was a sketch challenge and I LOVE sketch challenges.

Today I used SU INK'S Brand new sets "Fore", and "Thinking of Father". The "fore" stamp set is a great set for that golfer or father in your life. This set is so much fun to use and would also be perfect for a scrapbook page.


My second picture is a photo of the inside of my card. My good friend Kerry is always using her left over papers to decorate the inside of her cards. I think it's a great idea and have done that here. I used the SU INK'S "Thinking of Father" for the sentiment.

Just in case you didn't make it for the Blog hop, I wanted to share the news sets with you.






How cute are these? The SU Ink blog is filled with some great cards from the DT. If you get a chance head on over and check them out. here. I hope you all have a WONDERFUL WEDNESDAY!
