{Loads of Love}

        Good Afternoon! My card today features an image by High Hopes Stamps, and it is one of my all time favorite images of all time! The little girl holding the pumpkin is just so cute. The whole time I was coloring the image I was thinking of my friend LeAnn and her two adorable munchkins. The image was colored with SU ink, and blender pens. Actually, everything I used to create this card is from Stampin' Up! I used Chocolate Chip and Always Artichoke grosgrain ribbon, and the buttons, and card stock are Rose Red. I used two sentiments from the SU set "Loads of Love", and the scallop border was made using the Scallop Ribbon Border punch. I am entering this card in two challenges, the High Hopes Stamps Weekly Challenge. We were given a recipe challenge which was to use 1 circle, 2 squares, and a scalloped edge.  

  I hope that you are having a good weekend, and thank you for visiting my blog today!

{Choo Choo on over to the Stampin' Up! Clearance Section!}

I agree, the title of my post is corny, but I just had to let you know that Stampin' Up! has added some amazing items to the Clearance Rack . This may be my last month as a SU demo if I don't meet my minimums so I am offering an extra 10% off on ALL Clearance Rack orders placed thru me! If your order is over $50 I will give you 20% off of the order! Also your order  will ship directly to your house! I put in an order of my own this morning so I recommend looking and getting your order back to me as soon as possible because I have a feeling some of the items will go FAST! You can email me at  alwaysctr@ yahoo.com if you have any questions.

Now onto today's card.  I used the super cute Stampim' Up! set "Choo Choo". I stamped the train cars on Whisper White, cut them out, and laid them on the track that I made using the matching wheel.  I made the cloudy sky with a scallop punch and Whisper White craft ink, SO easy! I used the pile of hearts, and sentiment from the SU set "Loads of Love". I really had fun making this card! Again, take a look at the Clearance Rack  and get back to me ASAP!  Thank you for visiting my blog today!
