justem: little bits of this and that

It kind of feels like February today...

It's SO cold here today!! (Well, it's been cold all week!)  I thought in honor of the fact that it feels like February, I'd share some Valentine's Day cards I made for Pebbles a long while ago.  These are simple cards made with my Cameo - I just cut out the letters and adhered the negative portion of top of lots and lots of paper strips!! I used 3D dots to lift the letters up off the page a bit. They were super cute...even if my kids just destroyed them in about a day! ;) These cards use the Pebbles Yours Truly line - which is adorable. Y'all know that I'm not a big fan of "theme-y" lines, but this one is pretty perfect!

Those birds...too cute! ;)

 

And that ampersand paper????!!!!

Hopefully my buddy Spring will find his way back sometime soon... ;) Have a great day!

It's official...

The June Gossamer Blue kit is a hit amongst everyone in this house! ;)
Now to get my desk cleaned so I can dig in...

Non-traditional fall cards...

Hi there! Awhile back I had some cards up on the Pebbles Blog, and I thought I'd share them here today!  The theme was to make "Fall" cards, but if you know me, you know that I LOVE bright colors, so I decided to a little twist on the fall theme with some non-tradional fall colored cards. These feature my favorite Pebbles products - the photo hang tags, which I know I've raved about already, so I'll just say...I love them!

 

Have a great day!

The {not-quite} love notes...

Friday was "Send a Love Note" day, and I was assigned the duty of creating a "love note" themed card for the Pebbles blog. Um, yeah...if you know me, you know my idea of a love note is something like a post-it stuck on the mirror AND that making cards kind of terrifies me. ;)  But, an assignment is an assignment, so I did my best to create a couple of fall-ish cards, that don't exactly fall into the love note category...but I won't tell if you won't! ;)  

I'm not a huge "themey" scrapper, but I LOVE how the fun Halloween papers in the Thirty-One line are so vertile that they can be used on pretty much any project!  To see the cards, check out my post over at the Pebbles!  I can't believe it's almost October! Where did this month go?!  

Revealed!

Happy Thursday - where is this week going?!  Yesterday was a very exciting day at Pebbles, where they introduced their brand new logo:

So, so cute!  I also may have had a glimpse at this logo on some of the upcoming CHA products. Um...SWOON.  I'm in love with it all!!  And while we are talking about Pebbles, here is a quick and easy card I made for our amazing outgoing DT coordinator Lynn:

Have a great day! :)

Birthday card pair...

I am not much of a card maker, as you all know! ;) But, I have a bunch of Pebbles supplies sitting around that I thought I'd put to good use!  Here are two quick and easy cards I made using a mix of Pebbles product!

I like the idea of picking a basic design and then just copying it with different papers and product.  It makes the whole cardmaking process much less stressful!! I might even make a few more to go with this set and give them away as a gift...since I am horrible about actually sending the cards I make! ;)  Hope you are having  a great day!

a card...

I don't make cards very often. For some reason I have a much harder time creating a tiny little card than I do a bigger layout.  I will choose to make a layout over a card  any day, even if it does take three times as long!   I used to be in a stamping group where I made cards every month, but since I've left that, not only have I hardly stamped, I have also made only a handful of cards.  I'm a sucker for rainbows, so this particular one fell together pretty easily!  I really like the final result...perhaps I need to come out of my card-making-shell and make some more! :)
