I had left over scraps after creating the 6 cards. I turned the scraps into this 2min card. No need to be wasteful or add to my already overflowing disorganized scrap stash! =)

Random Valentine Cards
A friend needed Valentine Cards for her grand kids. Instead of getting them at the store she wanted handmade ones, and asked if I could help with that. Of course I can. And I loved the challenge of 7 different sketches. (3 boys & 4 girls)
Here are a few of what I came up with...
You are loved Stamp Set
Patio Party DSP
Summer Starfruit Stitched Satin Ribbon
Perfect Polka Dot Embossing Folder
Small Heart Punch
Oval Accents Framelits
Rhinestones

Children's Ministry Greeting Cards
I was so honored to be asked to create the greeting cards that our children's ministry at the church gives out. I wanted to share them with you. It is such a treat to create cards that are for kids and most assuredly a challenge to keep it gender neutral!
I used the Window Framelits and For the Birds Stamp Set
The Hearts a Flutter Stamp Set and Framelits Bundle was used for the above card.
This is a "thank you for visiting card." For this one card I can not take credit for the design. I cased it from this very talented paper crafter.
This next photo is of a simple box I made to hold the cards.

Moxie Fab Trigger: Sweet Dreams
The colors in this trigger are gorgeous! I love the rich razzleberry rug and the multitude of
different prints fashioned together.

But what I can't keep my eyes from is the roman shade, the half opened door,
and the little glimpse of the tree outside.
I took the design of the shade and the tree outside to create the look of this card.
Obviously the colors in the photo are paired so nicely that is was easy to use them in any way together on a sketch.

Hope you enjoy my rendition of this week's Moxie Fab Tuesday Trigger.

My Friend Stephanie at Burlap Kisses also submitted her trigger.
I was delighted to receive this card from her for my birthday. She knows yellow is my favorite color!

Craft brain block!
Today started out with cleaning and laundry and once I got that done
I knew I was able to craft all day!
I started by finishing up a card from last night. It came out good and I was happy with it.
After finishing that I stated to work on a new card. It wasn't going well at all! I knew the stamp set I wanted to use and a simple sketch in my head but it just didn't look right. I knew I had to walk away when I started to just stare out the window. I was totally bummed about taking a break because I didn't want to waste my crafting day.
I walked away for a long time, wallowed in self pity while playing temple run on my phone, and then finally decided to slip the head phones on, crank up the spotify, and give it another round.
I am glad I did because I just love this card. I will be submitting it for the Stampin'Up! Design team.
I hope they like it as much as I do!
So moral of this story...don't give up, instead work toward new perspective!

Secret Garden Bouquet
One of my favorite things to do with the new Natural Trim Ribbon
is to stamp on it with StazOn. It is gorgeous and just adds a nice touch of simple flare. And of course you can never go wrong with flowers!
