Sister In Law's B-day

On Saturday was my SIL Birthday. We celebrated last weekend since we were already up there visiting Mommie. I usually try to make the gifts that I give her but this year she just got a card with some cash in it so she could buy what she wanted herself!!!

I felt rushed in making this card (I always seem to wait till the 11th hour), but I love how I colored the flower with the Prisma Pencils!!! It's not the best light for it either.

Stamps: PTI Delightful Dahlia, Big & Bold Wishes

Ink: Colorbox Chalk: Warm Violet & Wisteria (Swiped around the edges of paper ribbon)

Mommie's Mother's Day Card

I know it isn't the best picture, but I really do like the way this card came out. I used mostly PTI products (absolutely love PTI).

I had a hard time putting this together, but think it came out pretty well, and she seemed to like the card as too.

Mother's day is one of those holidays I really enjoy. I love the fact that my family takes me out for lunch/dinner (but we usually try to do this on Sat. instead of Sunday, the crowds are just too much) and we usually see my MIL and my SIL and treat them as well. This year my darling man bought all of us ladies wrist corsages (how old fashioned), loved it!!! Then after lunch we took my MIL home and sat outside in the gazebo just chatting. It was a lovely day. Now onto the details of the card.

Smell the Flower

I saw this card here and loved it! So I decided to try and make it. I don't think that I did it justice but will try again sometime. I am enjoying being able to craft a little more these days. The reason being is I took this semester off except for the CNA class. This class is the last one I need before the actual nursing classes.

Anyway I hope you enjoy the card.

Autumn Abundance

Hello again! I am trying to post more often and now that I have found away of getting around not finding my digital camera, you should see me posting more often. Today's cards is one of my favorites. When I saw this set, I just instantly fell in love with it. I love the Fall season all the colors and the chilly, crisp nights! Makes me wish I had a fireplace in my house!

I colored the image with my Copics, I don't remember the colors at this point and cut the image out with my Nestibilities. My Cardstock was Bazill with the Designer paper being Memory Box, I also added on some lace that I picked up at a garage sale. The sentiment is also PTI but the little banner was from a Martha Stewart stamp set that I purchased at Michael's

Thanks for looking!!!

Notebook

I know it has been awhile since I have last posted, but I put my camera away somewhere safe and I can't find it! I am sure I am not the only one that has done this, so I have had to find another way to upload my photo's. So what I have done is uploaded them to Facebook then have saved the pictures and I am trying to upload them to my blog.



Here's hoping it works! I visit several blogs and on one I noticed that she often altered notebooks and I thought I would give it a try. So I did 2 of them. One I put the cover on wrong, but by then it's to late, so the second one was the way it was supposed to be! Live and learn. I really liked how they came out and gave each of the girls one. I see Sarah using hers, but not Faith...hmmmm. Anywho, here they are. Was thinking of making a few more and trying to sell them for like $8-$10 a piece, what do you think?

The other one I made was done in pink.

Cardstock is Papertrey Ink

Stamps: Papertray Ink-Turning a New Leaf, Background Basic-Textile I and Take Note

Designer Paper: My Mind's Eye Home

Ribbon: Papertray Ink

These are the only worms I will touch!

Ok, so I can't find my digital camera, but I am going to try and upload a picture of one of my cards from my Facebook account. It is a card I made a little while ago for Craig. I saw the stamp and knew I just had to get it! Plus it's great for masculine cards.

The Cardstock is PTI as well as the patterned paper. Stamps are DRS Designs, and I used a lot of different Copic colors. This was a lot of fun to color and I really like the way it came out. Let me know what you think!. Oh the paper behind the sentiment is Memory Box Co. I have been stamping quite a bit and will add more pics later of what I have done.

Today I am working on Christmas gifts, I love working with paper and making something personal and not store bought!

Sympathy Card

I have never had to make a Sympathy Card since I started stamping maybe a little over a year ago. Unfortunately I have a friend who's mother died. I tried something new-watercolor paper. I have to say it was kind of fun and interesting to try this. I have always liked the look so I thought I would give it a try! So here it is.
