Guest Designer: My Sheri Crafts

For my 100th follower cartridge giveaway click HERE.

Thanks to my Disney card, I was selected as the guest designer over at My Sheri Crafts!!  The challenge this week is to make a project that incorporates sewing (real or faux).

Thank you Sheri for this opportunity!

My card has a little fashionista on it, she is creating a fabulous new outfit to wear!


I've always wanted to learn how to sew.  I will live vicariously through my crafts :)


This sentiment from My Creative Time was perfect for this card.


I added stitching all around, even on the sewing machine! I really love adding stitching to a card.  It adds so much to it!

Make sure you join in on the fun and enter your creation here: My Sheri Crafts.

I am also linking up to Whimsical Wednesday: Just Because Challenge

Carts Used: Nifty Fifties (Sewing Machine), Lacy Labels (Card Base), Recess (Girl at Desk), Once Upon a Princess (hair)

At Home Manicure!

Today was one of the best days ever!  I don't know if you guys know about the Limeades for Learning campaign going on with Sonic.  During this time of the year Sonic has a portion of their sales go to funding classroom grants on this website called Donors Choose.  A few of us were shocked today when Sonic dropped by our school and presented us with some huge honorary checks and we were told that our grants were being funded by this campaign!!  If you have never heard of Donors Choose, I recommend you visit.  It's a place where you can help teachers across the country by giving a donation to their classroom.  You can even see classroom pictures of how your donation impacted children.

So as you can imagine, I got home in a super happy mood and had to make a card!

Here is my card:

This is suppose to be me, except I can't do my nails. I tried... and I failed. I was at a hair salon last Friday waiting for a couple hours for my hair lady, and I was sitting by the manicurist.  Getting your nails done looks so relaxing!



Can you see her nails? My husband is super good with details and he said she should have her nails already done! I added glossy accents to the nail polish and her nails.


This turned out to be a fun card! Finished it up with stitching, twine bows, and embossing. 
The sentiment that inspired the whole card is from My Creative Time's set called Gift Card Sentiments.  It's an awesome set!!
