This is a quick card for my niece who just got married, yes better late then never! lol. After all the sports and activities this past spring, I am having a very lazy summer!! need to motivate myself!!

4th of july

Have a wonderful and safe 4th of July everyone!!

Wow, it's been awhile since I've posted.....Sorry, but life seems to be hectic when you have a child graduating and a ten year old! I had fun making a few of these matchbook note pads, I wanted to send them to stampers, but never had the time to send them out.



I wanted to challenge myself and make a card without using any patterned paper and use only ink and stamps. The stamps are from Oxford impressions and the trees are from stampin up. thanks for looking, have a great day!!!

I can't believe my baby is 18 and graduating this year! He looked so handsome in his tuxedo! sorry bloggers, haven't been creating....will soon, another prom, baseball, graduation and party! It will all end soon! ( then I will be sad)

I love paper dolls so when I received the new oxford stamps oxford impressions. I wanted to dress her up. I stamped the girl on different types of scrap paper and cut the clothes out. I need to make more and post them, I think it's alot of fun.

A quick card for a friend, this is my favorite image of the new fairie stamps, also from oxford. The background is a flower stamp that I first embossed then sponged the background and then stamp flowers again with different colors. Have a great day!

St. Patricks

You know spring is around the corner when you start making Easter and St. Patrick day cards. Card above was a quick card made with a vintage postcard. I am so ready for spring! Will post more later, thanks for looking! Have a great week.

Been busy with school PTO, so I haven't been creating much, but here are two cards that I have made for Jared's teachers. I love the stamp above, its from artistic outpost. Below is a postcard that I purchased and made a quick card with. Happy Valentines everyone!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!
I was just in Lani Kent's blog and she is having a giveaway, click here, she is so talented!!

christmas cards

Well, it's down to the wire and I am all most done with my cards, yeah!! I finished these cards last night and the girl on the bottom was one of my favorite stamps and I haven't used her in acouple of years, she's from stamping ground. Hope everyone is enjoying the holidays.

Christmas projects

I know it's been awhile since I've blogged, christmas cards are just being made, projects are done, above is a snowman I've made (idea from cloth, paper, and scissor) I love him so I made acouple of them. Another project below that I've always wanted to make are these soldered christmas ornaments. I usually make these with 2x3 wood from Michaels but I wanted to make them different this year.

Tim Holtz is so talented!! I've been peeking at his blog and he has the most wonderful tags!! I made one and used one of his background techniques, I will have to go back and look at the rest and make more. The image is from paperwhimsy, purchased a bunch of her images and haven't made much.....I need to get on the ball. Okay back to creating, need to make more cards!!

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving and if you are going out of town, have a safe trip!!

another card I had made for a friend, I just think this girl is so cute, she's from artistic outpost

Made this card for stamper's challenge, using the color fushia, I love this stamp, it's from I brake for stamps

crow

finishing up some projects that were sitting on my desk, I purchased these birds awhile ago and they are finally done.  Aren't they cute? I still have two more halloween projects to finish up.  I can't believe I'm still working on halloween stuff!!  But I am truly am enjoying it.

okay, I saw this rubber stamp  and it screamed halloween so I made this card. Aren't they cute? The stamp is from Rubber stamp tapestry.  Hope your all having a great weekend.

halloween

I think I'm done with halloween cards for now,  I've had fun making them, I did take alittle break and I made these cute charms from polymer clay.... I decided to make a bracelet out of them. thanks for looking.

one of my favorite songs of the 80's, every time I hear this song, I  reminisce of my high school days, yes I am showing my age!

halloween cards

I started making halloween cards today,  it was nice to be in some kind of creative mood again. The girl below is really a cute stamp (from stampland).  I just whited her eyes out and  painted her lips red to give her that spooky look.

The cat stamp above was purchased at Michaels last year ($1.00 bin) this card is really a ten minute card!! Some times its just fun to make quick cards.  Hope everyone is having a good weekend.

Oh my gosh, I can't believe it's been so long since I've blogged, sorry guys. Summer was terribly hectic for me. Family from both sides were here......I never made it to my craftroom the whole summer :( Entertaining is very draining (mentally and in your pocketbook) lol. Anyways, I hope everyone had a great summer. Boys are back in school and I am kinda glad, the house is quiet though.

I finally finished sewing this apron, It's made with an old pair of jeans, I was going to send it to somerset sew, but it feels like its not finish, any input?

I know it's only September, but I  felt like making something that has to do with halloween so I pulled out my beads and whatever junk I had already and came out with this bracelet.

I made this bracelet with plastic shrinkadink (I had for years) some charms and beads. it's amazing to see what you can create by just looking at what you already have! Anyways, have a great evening!!!

Have a wonderful and safe 4th of JULY !!!!

creating again

hi everyone, sorry it's been awhile since I've blogged. I've been busy with the boys (baseball) almost over, and of course school. 3 more days of school and we are done! I'm also now in my home! yeah! But now I'm unpacking again, seems like forever, but I know there will be an end to the chaos. I received a new stamp set from oxfordimpressions and made the card above.


I went to a stamp convention acouple weeks ago and bought these stamps. the company's name is artful illusions. I think their website is still down, I love their stamps, the tickets are from stampers anonymous. Now that I'm in my home I can start creating without leaving and blog more. Have a great weekend!

christmas cards!?!

I wanted to make some christmas cards for stampers and this is the first card I have made! It's so hard to think christmas when it's 70 degrees outside! I think I will take a break LOL (like a have made many)

Isn't she cute? I made quite a few birthday cards with her. The stamp is from artistic outpost. Have a good weekend!
