Crafty Sunday




Hi everyone...hope you had a good weekend. My weekend was ok...worked some overtime yesterday and spent the rest of the weekend cleaning, crafting, and relaxing.

I just wanted to share some cards that I made over this past week. The first two pics are from a card class at The Paper Pickle that I went to this past Wednesday. Linda was the instructor and she came with some amazing card ideas (like she always does).

And the last picture is of some Magnolia cards that I made today. I used Barely Banana or Kiwi Kiss cardstock from SU! for the base and patterned paper from DCVW. The images were stamped out on SU! Whisper White cardstock using my Basic Black Classic stamping pad from SU! I also used my Top Notes die (lovin' it) for the background and coloured in the images with my Tombows. I popped up the images and added some Stickles in Stardust for some bling and some Prima flowers that I bought a couple of weeks ago. I'm pretty happy with how the cards turned out (I think they are pretty cute).

I also became a Stampin Up demonstrator last week too...I've been thinking about it for a while now. I'm quite excited to start having workshops, so once I get my demonstrator page up, I'll be posting some dates on it. And I can't wait to get my demonstrator kit...it should be arriving sometime this week!!

Anyways, thanks for stopping by to check out what I've been making. Enjoy the rest of your Sunday night!!

I'm back vol. 3




These are the last of the cards that I made while I was MIA...the two birthday cards were made for my dad and my step-brother and the invitations are made for my step-dad's birthday open house which will be in May!! Thanks for stopping by to check out what I've been up to. Hope you all have a great Sunday!!

I'm back vol. 2





Here are some more cards that I made while I was MIA in February until now. I made the birthday card for my Grandma and the Fairy Tink card was made for my mom (love that stamp!!). The pictures that have 2 cards in them were made at a card class at a LSS, Crop Til You Drop (Sherri was the instructor and she always comes up with great ideas)!! Enjoy!!

I'm back!!






Hi everyone!! How have you all been? I've been doing ok...we're finally moved into the new house, the computer is fixed and finally hooked back up to the Internet!! I just thought that I would share the cards that I've made since I went MIA back in February (I made these Valentine cards for my mom, some of my friends at work, and for my boyfriend)...hope you enjoy looking at them!!

MIA

Hi everyone...I will be MIA for a while...hopefully not too long though. My computer at home has been infected with a virus, so I am unable to access the Internet there (which means I can't post any of the cards that I've been making to here). I'm hoping to get it cleaned up soon, and once it is, I will be back to post everything that I've been making!!

Thank you!!




I just wanted to say a big THANK YOU to my Bella Sistah Janet for the latest package of goodies that I received from her!! It was so nice to come home today to some happy mail!! Included in the package was a super cute card with Topiarybella on it, a Gardenia Greenthumb stamp from Stamping Bella, a Tinkerbell mouse pad (love it), a Copic marker, a cuttlebug folder, and lots of embellishments!! Thanks so much Janet...I can't wait to play with my new goodies!!

I also wanted to share a card with you that I made tonight. I've had this digi stamp (Alice Anya) from The Greeting Farm for about a week now and finally decided on what to do with it. I coloured it in with my Towmbows, used my label nestabilites, Swiss Dots cuttlebug folder, added some paper from Basic Grey (Urban Prairie) and popped it up on some cardstock from Stampin' Up (I can't remember if it's from the newest in-colours or if it is from last year's in-colours). I also added some flowers (some of the embellishments that I received today from my Bella Sistah) and added some green baubles from Stamping Bella as the flower centers. I think it turned out cute and I can't wait to use this image again!!

Hope everyone has a great night!!
