Please meet....

Darnell Knauss

My name is Darnell and my blog is (djkardkreations.com). I started making my own cards in 2002 after attending my first Stampin' Up! party and I have never looked back. After ten years making cards for family and friends inside the disgusting garage, we had the backyard relandscaped and I became the envied occupant of my sweet crafty Playhouse! I am having the time of my life now blogging to share my cards, play with words, and make friendships with delightful people from all over the world who provide me with endless inspiration! 

How adorable, thanks Darnell!

Please stop by Darnell's blog to say hello, I am sure she would be thrilled to see you there!

Prize

Winner will get to choose 4 digital images from Sweet Pea Stamps

Sweet Pea Stamps (SPS) is a small home-based business in Michigan. SPS does not work from a brick and mortar shop. You will find SPS only on line at Sweet Pea Stamps. We pride ourselves in quality and value. Lynette McAnsh, Owner, is a perfectionist. If the product is not top quality, she will not offer it.

Lynette stated her small business selling D.O.T.S. in the 90s. In 1999 she started “Designs, Ink’d” and sold that business in 2004 due to health and family issues. Missing the love of running a small business, and with her children older, she started Sweet Pea Stamps in April 2009. Now, 5 years later, we are representing over 30 artists with digital images and rubber stamps. She does work alone, sometimes with the help of family; her turn-around time may be longer than the big companies. You will always be met with friendly and professional demeanor and her merchandise will always be the highest quality.

Other online places to visit SPS are the Facebook page Sweet Pea Stamps, and our Facebook group, Sweet Pea Stamps Friends and Fans. SPS has a monthly blog challenge at One Sweet Challenge and daily inspiration from SPS’s designers at Sweet Pea Rubber Stamps blog. We hope you join use.

City Crafter Challenge Blog week 240 ~A wreath for this season

Hello!

It's Tuesday again and that means we have a new challenge here at CCCB.

It's my turn to host the challenge. This week the theme is a "A wreath for this season"

Create a card or project using a wreath on it. AND add a touch of silver to it, e.g. a piece of tinsel, silver embossing, silver paper or sequins. You can add it to your background, sentiment or on the wreath itself, as long as we could see it!

I am looking forward to see your wreath; have fun!

Kamila

Hi, my name is Kamila and I live in Poland, in Gdynia, beautiful town by the sea :)

I am 36 years old, married, I have three children and the fourth is about to be born.

Since I only remember I've been create something. My first passion was poetry, and still is, but now I don't write as often as I used to. Also I like to sew, embroider and I spend a lot of time creative and healthy cooking. My huge love is Italy and italian language that's why my blog's name comes from it.

Ever since I started watching tutorials on YT, my cardmaking technique is still evolving, and I hope that someday I will be really good :)

Stop by Kamila's blog for more of her beautiful work!
