Just a Note!



Well here is the project i was telling you about yesterday that i was working on! One is for a friend and one is for MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! I am going to keep one for me! I never keep anything or make anything just for me and so i thought it was high time i did that!
Anyways , I got this idea for this project HERE. Laurie is one of my favorite paper artists. Her project was so darn cute I decided to make one of my own . Not having a pattern I made it up to the best of my ability, in my own way. And this is how MY VERSION turned out. Thanks for lookin!

a fun day to just play!






Today i had a day to just play, ok, yesterday i did too..after finishing the last of the 12 file folder albums! Anywhooooo. I played around making a few cards and started a new project for a friend, just for the fun of it. I hope to finish it tomorrow and then i will show you when it is done. I am going to make one for my self too..I dont get to enjoy my own stuff very often, its always being made for others! So I will make me one to keep! yeah!!!
So back to the 2 cards i made today! I had a stamped image from my blog friend Wendalyn, you can visit her blog and her work here. Anyways the fuzzy cat with bunny slippers is from her. I used OMS along with my colored pencils to color him and added some stickles to give her slippers some sparkle! Inside it says pure bliss, because that is what I think she is thinking and i know my fuzzy slippers make me very happy! ha ha
The second card is from a set of penny black stamps, called garden friends, and has the chicks piled up on top of each other. Thought it was a cute spring card and added some stickles to the chick as well.
I hope to have my NEW project posted tomorrow. I will be starting a wedding shower album in the next few days, just waiting for my supplies to come in! Thanks for stopping by!

Magnolia cards





I was 'blessed' with these magnolia stamps from my sweet friend Melinda, and so i HAD to make some cards up! I mailed off 2 with out taking pics of them first....so i remembered to take pics of these and get them on the blog. They will be going on ebay on sunday. Unless someone contacts me and asks for them before i do that. They will go for $5. They are a little larger then the others i have made. I had to add some stickles to add a bit of sparkle! I made them 3d as well..Of course i used some of my favorite paper as well...love the colors in it! Thanks for stopping by.

I have been working and working on this big order of 12~ I have now completed 9 of the 12~ ! I am having fun with it...and they seem to fall into place as you go! I hope that Lisa will love them all!

We need the moisture so badly! I hope it doesnt hurt the 60 strawberry plants i planted...(thanks melinda!!)

Cards off to France....







I am so happy that Holly is back from the Clinique!! Welcome back Holly and so glad your feeling a bit better! She got right on and made an order, so here are her cards i will be mailing out soon!

Two Tins!



Here are two tins i have made for a special order! She wanted "garden theme" and using graphic 45, you see, apparently Melinda and I were separated at birth...as we have the same taste in things, paper especially! So making things for her is pretty easy as i just make things like I would like them! So no stress! Each tin has 2 cards and 3 dividers on the inside. How fun!
I love how they turned out..! So fun and makes you wish for spring to come so you can go out and play in the dirt and plant some flowers! Thanks for stopping by. I have LOTS to get done...orders coming out my ears...and i LIKE IT! ha
