My Bunny Valentine

Hello Everyone!

Hope to find everyone doing well.

Sorry for being MIA again. I have spent the last week and a half

helping a very dear friend. Her family and of course her got ill with

the flu so I kept checking on them and going to the store for them

to get them what they needed. My routine was to get them what

they needed then I would go to their house ring the bell leaving the

items they needed at the door and running like heck hoping not to

get the flu bug they had. As soon as they started feeling

better I started to feel a sore throat coming on so I made sure to get

plenty of fluids and rest. I didn't get real sick which was good. Just

when I thought that I was good to go I ended up with a stomach bug.

My 50th birthday happened somewhere in between all this illness

so I postponed all plans. I am finally feeling good again not great but

it's better then bad.....LOL.....

This is another card that I made for Beths' challenge

The Bunny I believe came from Stamp Fairy but not real sure.

If anyone knows for sure who the artist is please let me know

so that I can give credit where credit is due. I water colored

the bunny. I like how it turned out. Hope you like it.

Until my next post stay healthy and safe.

Corrugated treat boxes

It's getting chilly here again so I thought it would be a great

day to share my corrugated treat boxes that I made for the winter

shows that I did last year. As you see in my header picture I made

two different styles. One is in the craft corrugated cardstock while

the other is a glitter white corrugated cardstock.

This did very well for me at the craft show.

These boxes are quick and simple.

See I really have been crafting. I was pretty busy trying to get

everything done that I normally do for the Holidays that my poor

blog kind of was set on the back burner. With the move in March I

really wasn't ready to do any shows but ended up jumping in with

both feet and my eyes closed. Now that all of that is behind me I

can get back to blogging. So greatful to have made it through

all the hustle and bustle.

Hope you like my treat boxes, until my next post Have A Splendid

Day!!!!!!!

Valentine card For Beths Challenge

Good Morning Everyone !!!!

Hope to find everyone doing well. I hope that no one has gotten

that flu bug. I have had a few really full days. I'm trying to catch

up on house work. I still find time to craft. In my header picture

is a card that I made for Valentines day. This card I made for a

special challenge. Beth who does youtube videos is collecting

Valentine cards to send to St. Judes  so that all the children there

will get a card. If you would like to join that challenge you can go to

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sp7AqL63h3I&feature=c4-overview&list=UUsjEHsPMPzhBYPQOXYWLtjw

She gives all the challenge details there. Beths youtube name

is Bethsscrapbookroom

This is just one card of a few that I made to send to Beth.

For this card I used a digi that I got from MMD_Buddy's Digi.

I coloured him with water color pencils. Clear stamp sentiment from

Studio G, added some embellishments and ribbon from my stash.

That's my card, Hope you like it.

Until my next post Have A Splendid Day!!!!!!

 

 

Altered Mirror

Good Afternoon Everyone!!!!!!

Hope everyone had a great weekend. We spent the weekend

watching football games. So glad that Seattle is moving on.

Because of watching the games the house was a bit messy so

 I spent the morning cleaning up all the mess.....LOL.....

In my header picture is a mirror that I altered/ dressed up.

Below is what it looked like before I did anything to it.

 

Sure makes a difference doesn't it?

The flower I made using Tim Holtz Tattered Flower Die. I

used muslin and burlap. The burlap was some scraps from some

other project I had done a long time ago.

I made some smaller roses using a paper punch. Used some

raffia that was also in my stash. The pearls were actually white

but I distressed them with tea dye ink.

I liked how it turned out all I need to do now is get it hung up.

Until my next post Have A Splendid Evening!!!!!

Paper bag mini part 2

Good Morning everyone!!!!!!

Hope everyone is doing well. Glad to see that the weather

is getting better for some that were in some freezing cold

weather. We are getting some much needed rain here and our

mountains are getting the much needed snow. Love that things

are getting back to normal.

As I said in my last post that I would post the second half of

my paper bag mini because there were so many pictures, well

here it is. Below is the page that I stopped with.

Below with picture mat removed.

The inside of the same page next.

Journaling card or photo mat the owner can decide how to

use it below.

Next page below. This is my favorite page and this is the also

the header picture.

Next is the page open. I love the paper on this page that I

couldn't cover it up with embellishments.

Below is a mat or  journal card.

Last but not least the back of the mini.

I am thinking that I might have to change the spiral binding

with a bigger size, but that will be a quick fix. I'm happy with

how this album turned out. I hope you like it too.

Until my next post stay warm and safe, Have A Splendid

Day!!!!!!!!

Paper bag mini

Good Morning everyone!!!!!!

Hope everyone is finding a warm place to be and keeping safe.

Since so many are staying inside hopefully you are spending

some of your time to create, read or just relax.

I have been creating and looking at my header picture is proof

of that. I created this mini album from paper bags. I also used my

Zutter machine for the first time on this project. I am breaking

the posting of this album into two parts because of all the pictures.

The album measures 6 inches by 4 and 3/4 inches.

I made journaling cards for the pockets.

I used the DCWV Tres Chick stack for most of this album along

with scraps from other projects.

Another pocket and journaling card

 

I also made a few photo mats for the album

I just wished that my albums would come together a little faster.

Making albums is somewhat hard for me. I love the albums that

I see on other bloggers posts with all the embellishments but I

just can't bring myself to embellish. I guess I'm more of a clean and

simple type. Well I hope you like what you see so far. Until my next

post Have A Splendid Day!!!!!!

My first one 12 by 12 sheet mini album

Hello everyone.

I really can't say good morning or good afternoon because it is

way late in the day. I do hope you are all doing fine and keeping warm.

Sorry about no post yesterday but I have been having some technical

difficulties. When I plug my camera in and download pictures it all goes

well, but as soon as I unplug the camera my pc will go off-line and it

takes me some time to get it back on line. I figured that with all the

problems that I was having I should get all my pictures taken and load

them up. Well that didn't go to well my card was full and then the

battery died, so here I am finally posting to my blog. The little road

blocks of life can't and won't stop me....LOL... I will just laugh at it.

In my header picture is a one sheet mini album that I made for the

very first time. The mini measures 4 and 3/4 in. by 3 in.

This post will be a little picture heavy. The first page and the pocket

on the first page below.

the next page and the pocket on the second page below.

Third page and the pocket on the third page below.

Next is the last page.

The back of the mini album.

So there it is my first one12 by 12 sheet mini. 

It was very easy to make and a lot of fun. I hope you like it.

Until my next post Have A Splendid Evening!!!!!!!
