You may just be starting the blog hop or may have come from the incredibly talented Mary Fish at Stampin' Pretty on the Pals Hop. If you get off track at any time, the full lineup below will help you move along from blog to blog so you see all of the amazing creations.
I finally inked up my Hardwood stamp and used it as my background. I love the look of this stamp! I made a "thinking of you" because I know a couple of ladies who need a special thought right now.
The next stop is another talented Pal, Linda Callahan at Stampin' Seasons 15 on the Pals Blog Hop! Thanks for visiting and I hope to see you next month!
p.s. A huge thanks to the talented Nicole Watt for the adorable badges!

PPA194
Oh boy, did I have trouble with this Pals Paper Arts Color Challenge 194! I don't use dark blues and purples very often. I made three cards and didn't like one. I finally gave up and decided to go with this one. I had no designer papers with these colors either so I decided to make my own. I used a variety of stamp sets and broke out the Banner Framelits dies. I'm glad I was able to use a few of my new products. Let me know what you think, but be kind! LOL

PPA 193
Here's what I created for Pals Paper Arts Challenge 193. I am not fond of this sketch at all (no offense, Nicole!). It is pretty simple so I'm not sure why it was hard for me. It took me two tries! The first was a baby card which I thought would be easy. I ended up making another baby card. The Pals Paper Arts team didn't seem to have too much trouble with this one. Go and check it out!
I finally got my Fresh Prints paper (132996) in and I'm so happy. The prints are gorgeous! I ordered this from the Occasions Catalog. This was my most favorite Occasions catalog ever! There is still time to order from it.
On a personal note, I got good news today on my shoulder. I don't need surgery at this point. I do have to start physical therapy and if that doesn't help after three months, my ortho will consider surgery then. Fingers crossed. I was so worried I wouldn't be able to stamp for a while as it is my right shoulder.

Pixel Maven's PMDC-039 Color Challenge
I saw this color combo on Pixel Maven's blog and just had to participate! I love this color combo (Pear Pizzazz, Crisp Cantelope and Pool Party). It is so me. Ok, anything with Pool Party is good with me! LOL
I used some of the new toys I got from the Occasions Catalog. I've been dying to open up some of the boxes and stamp! I finally felt good enough to play today after the stomach bug I got on Thursday night. Thanks for looking and commenting! As always, I apologize for the horrible photo. I really need to learn how to take better photos. My camera wasn't cooperating with my laptop earlier so I just used my iPad. ( just uploaded another, hopefully better!)

PPA 192
I made a card for Pals Paper Arts Sketch Challenge 192 but I didn't like it. I was trying to make a new one on Thursday night but I got really sick with a stomach bug. I just finished it now and that's because I forced myself to. I am still weak and would love to be resting but felt I needed to get up and move.
The big difference between my first and second card was the papers. I don't have a lot of masculine papers so I used an old pack of Soft Suede dsp. It's ok but not that colorful.
I received a big box of stamping goodies the other day and I am dying to play with all of it! I love this designer paper. It has colors I like and it can be used for masculine or feminine cards.
I got a ton of freebies with Sale-a-Bration! I think I got 4 stamp sets, a pack of beautiful dsp, an embellishment pack and the Petite Petals punch. Oh, and how can I forget the Decorative Dots embossing folder! Everyone loves that. If you haven't already taken advantage of this sale, there is still time. It runs through March 31 so don't miss out!
