BEST Day Ever Camper Card

I made a couple different varieties with my leftover pre-cut card kits. Here is version #2.
Recipe:
Paper: Sophia (retired), Hollyhock CS, Sweet Leaf CS, White Daisy CS (CTMH)
Stamps: Camper Crazy, Finding The Words (CTMH)
Inks: Black, Hollyhock (CTMH)
Tools: ShinHan Alcohol Markers, Clear Detail Embossing Powder, Craft Heater, Cricut Art Philosophy (CTMH)

I remember when we used to own a camper like this. And I remember going camping in the boonies with my cousins, aunts, uncles, and grandparents. It's silly, but one of my favorite memories, is setting our watermelons and milk in crates and placing them in the creek beds to keep them cold. On a hot summer's day, we would go further up the creek, and wade through it to cool off. We'd make little boats and then race them down the creek, too. Simple pleasures sometimes make the best memories....

What are some of your favorite (camping) childhood memories?

RV There Yet Card

My husband finally finished the body work and re-assembly on his beautiful truck, and we will be camping soon. He spent many nights and weekends working on his 1990 pickup until it was road-worthy. Next summer, he plans to finish the interior restoration so that it will be just as pretty, ahem, rugged, on the inside.

Recipe:
Paper: Sophia (retired), Hollyhock CS, White Daisy CS, Sweet Leaf CS (CTMH)
Stamp: Camper Crazy (CTMH)
Inks: Black, Pear, Hollyhock (CTMH)
Tools: Cricut Art Philosophy, ShinHan Alcohol Markers, Clear Detail Embossing Powder, Craft Heater (CTMH)

I had some pre-cut cards in my stash from last Spring and decided to re-purpose them with a different stamp set. Isn't it cute? 

The kids cannot wait to go camping. They are looking forward to showing me some of the bike trails now that I have a bicycle to cruise on along side them. (Wonder if I need a helmet?)

Hope you are enjoying your summer. Get out and explore, if you get the chance.

Color Dare #86 Masculine Cards

I have exciting news to share with you. Color My Heart has asked me to be a Guest Designer this week. I am deeply honored and have the utmost respect for these weekly designers as they continue to inspire others. As you can see from the picture below, the colors that you must use are Ponderosa Pine, New England Ivy and Goldrush.

I decided to create 2 cards using this color combination because, quite frankly, they are not my typical go-to colors and it can be a struggle to come up with masculine card designs. But that's the beauty of this challenge; to challenge us to use color combinations we wouldn't typically think up on our own. You are welcome to incorporate neutral colors into your design.

Recipe: (All products by CTMH)
Paper: Timberline, Sarita, Flirty (retired), Bamboo CS, Chocolate CS, Colonial White CS 
Stamps: Chantilly Card WOTG (retired), Camper Crazy, Catch U Later, Card Chatter-Sympathy (retired)
Inks: New England Ivy, Chocolate, Goldrush
Tools: Blending Pen, Heat Gun, Clear Detail Embossing Powder, Paper-Piercer, New England Ivy Marker, Whisper Alcohol Marker
Other: New England Ivy brads (retired), Bamboo brads (retired), Chocolate Embroidery Floss (retired)


I encourage you to participate in this challenge. Thank you for stopping by. Have a fun-filled, crafty weekend!
