Well....Here I Am..

Hello All....Thought I would finally post, just to show that I haven't given up on myself...LOL 
I have been drawing a blank mind when I enter my craft room (isn't that a killer?) especially when you get a few new toys to play with ....
Here is a card I made for a cyber friend going through some tough times..

 I luv the pattern paper, you can make a wedding card, sympathy or classy B-day card.....
I like the way the weaved ribbon just in one corner turned out, so you can still admire the background paper
 I distressed and inked with vintage photo the edges of the paper ..the ribbon is from M's
I cut the swirl pearls from "want 2 Scrap" when I went to the Scrap Expo last year (which had 2-3 in a pkg  only .99 cents)  added them just above and on the side the sentiment as if they are flowing out......

The scalloped square was cut from mini monogram also inked with vintage photo and Brillance Pearlescent oral


side view to see the pearls better

Anyway......until next time

I know..I know...

I should have been here sooner...But remember I did say that I wasn't that crazy about blogging......luv blog hopping just not my own....LOL

   This time I will share a few ATC (Artist Trading Card) that I had made for a group that I'm in........I'll just pick a few...(how does that sound)
We  exchange monthly and we can choose any style or the event of that month....


the bunny is from Paper Doll Dress up cart and the chickie is a dollar stamp from M's.....but what I did was crave out the inside of the egg (it had solid flowers....you do do that? right?) and then stamped a small heart in the center of the egg instead...looks nicer  
 
and of course the good ol backpack for Sept. the backpack is from Doodlecharms cart, the apple is from the old Sizzix die and the ruler, pencil, crayons and the stack of books I free hand drew, colored and cut (check out the fat red one..LOL)  
the Happy Thanksgiving is a dollar stamp,  I stamp in timber brown Saz-On then traced the letters with the Zig fine point glue pen and sprinkled glitter on it....the turkey is also from Doodlecharms cart and I can't remember where the pie was cut from....but the leaves I found in the floral dept at M's
the background is a single stamp that i bought in San Diego and the flag is a set I found on clearance in a LSS that has now closed and for the last one
flourish from Accent Essentials and the flowers was cut from (I think) WIMG which I color and shaped and added a gem to the center....




Well there you go.......hoped you liked this posting ....cause it was a Big pain  to do, had some technical problems that I had to close down laptop and restart a few times...

Anyway.....until next time

HELLLOOO 2013

Did it just get here??? (yeah right!)   yes,  I've been missing (well   just to lazy to post...LOL) it has been very cold here and I just want to sit in front of the wood burning stove and stay warm!....
Anyway....I did make some cards, but this time I'm going to spilt them into 2 posts, that way it won't look like I don't like to blog...LOL  (laaazzzy)

So here we go....

this Birthday card I used the EK success bubble punch and made strips for background,  the scallop circle cut from mini mono and the stamps are inkadinkadoo 
(and I remembered to take a pic of the inside!) 


For the confetti, I used the dots from the punched strips and the sentiment is from the same stamp set... looking at the pic I see a yellow shadow (???) but its not on the card and that's what counts.......and tombo markers to color the cupcakes...


This one I used the same stamp set, swiss dot folder, same markers (so detailed!)
and no pic of inside,sentiment is...
Have a wonderful Day!


I had fun making the next one....


For this one I used the carousel cart and you can see still liking the bubble punch and the different bright color strips...this is A2 card and I also made a 5x7 size too...





So there you go.........I'm blogging again and maybe tomorrow too (we'll see.......LOL)
Anyway.........until next time!
