September Disney trip.

I am finally getting around to work with some of our Disney pictures I took over 2000.

Heres another

Well I decided to try another. This time I used the napkin left over from my DD (Hanna Montana) birthday party. I like the way the background feels using the napkins. Now when I buy napkins for occasions I will have this in the back of my mind for the left overs. I used the Angel Anya stamp for Pink Poison. Oh and don't forget she has 4 new ones coming out November 1st, and they are adorable.





Thanks for stopping by.

Monday, monday.

AT SCS the Try a New Technique was to transfer a napkin to freezer paper. I do not have freezer paper so I tried plastic bags. I just used my Price Chopper bag. I layered waxpaper, cardstock plastic bag (cut to size) napkin, and wax paper. It worked like a charm.

All the napkins have at least two layers. even though you may not think they do. If you iron the napkin first the layers will come apart very easy. Also if you go ahead and try without separating you get a lighter effect then you can use it again.

Hope this works for you

So here is my card, what do you think??




Here is what I used:

Stamps: artful INKables: Autumn's Flowers
Ink: StazOn: Timber Brown
Accessories: leaf punch by marvy, rhinestones by me and my big ideas, ribbon from offray, prismacolor pencils, pop dots

Just for Kim

I know I just can't seem to follow the rules!! Although I have never been a just one kind of girl. When I saw this challenge over at SCS to use one word. I thought of this stamp set from Pink Poison (Best Mates) using the words tough and tougher. So one word did stand out to me. I have a friend at work who is now going through chemo for breast cancer. You see we are nurses and well we work with the critically ill all the time it just seems wrong to be one of us. But as most of us know it touches us all and shows no mercy. So I made this card for Kim and for all of you out there who have gone through this or know someone. God bless you all.

Happy Wednesday and it is cold and rainy.

Well how has everyone been? My life has been as busy as the rest of you all. I am sick again!!! I cough all night and then drag all day. But on the upside We went to Oklahoma last weekend for the OSU Homecoming and had a great time. I again got my Cory fix!! Now we are home and DH is out of town so it is just me and the Ivi holding down the fort or what ever you call it when we have a lake for a 5 aker back yard.

Well today I made time for my passion and that is stamping and card making. I wanted to do the sketch challenge at SCS and so I did at least I thought I was. I clicked on the wrong date and did an old one. Oh well it is still a great layout. I used an adorable stamp set from Pink Poison called (Cup of Stuff). I tell you these critters are just too cute for words. So here it is and let me know what you think.

OH it's Monday!!

Yep it's Monday, I don't feel good, it's cloudy, and I have to work tonight. Oh well put on my happy panties and get on with it.

Today at SCS the Try a new technique challenge was to make a stair step card. Wellll, I wasn't sure I wanted to make one. But then gave it a try.

I used the new stamp set from artful INKables, I tell you this Deer Friends set is just too cute for words.






Here are the instructions for the card if you want to give it a try.

* Cut your cardstock to the size of 10.5 X 5.0 - if you want to stamp on this, now would be the time to do it.
* Score your cardstock at 1.25" - 2.5" - 4.25", 6" and at 8.25" Now fold with hills and valleys (accordion style) making sure that the smallest (1.25" fold) is folded down, as this will be the front of your card) Once you look at the samples, you will see what I'm referring to.
* Now here's the fun part...decorate with ANYTHING...punches, cut-outs, stickers...whatever your theme is, run with it.

Let me know what you think.

Special, that is what today was.

Well the boys are watching the OSU vs MU game. Of course we are hoping for OSU to win. So I decided to go and work on another card from Pink Poison Stamps. Marie's work is just beyond words. I love her art and the way she puts love and attention to detail in each of her stamps. So here is another for today's challenge.

While looking at the artist's work. I thought to my self how special to get to experience this wonderful work. So I came up with this card of these two little mice spending a special moment together.

Flowing Butterfly, and Cory is home!!

Cory came home from OSU late last night to help Rick with the building on his work shop. I am always in such a better mood when I get my Cory fix.

Today over at SCS the inspiration challenge was quite different. It was using Mizue Hirano as inspiration. I thought most of her or his work looked flowing, hence the flowing butterfly.

Flowing, well that was my inspiration on this card. As I looked at Mizue Hirano web sight I just kept thinking that everything was flowing like a butterfly. That is where I took off from. I just love this leaf butterfly from artful INKables new set "Butterfly Blessings". So elegant and so I thought it perfect for this challenge.

Ok I cheated just a bit.

So over at SCS the limited supply challenge today was to use rock, paper, scissors.

What a challenge for me. Ok I love to use rhinestones for the rock. Paper well anything to do with paper is fun and fabulous. Now for the scissors. Well I traced the lines on the back of my panels and then cut them out with my scissors. Not a straight line in the bunch. Oh well fun anyway.
