~2 Projects...I Dream Of...Chloroform??~

Good morning and happy Tuesday my friends,

Today is ridiculous day LOL

I have 2 projects to share, one very sweet and one very rude project.

I thought if I mixed them then you can choose which one you love LOL

I have this great little card you might have spotted at CHA using

the brand new Clear Scraps Borders, I used Viva Decor Pearl Pen

around the edges and glitter. (I believe this card is Echo Park paper).

Then I have this great little card using a sentiment from 

Viva Las VegaStamps! OHHH how I love their stamps! LOL

I love being really snarky sometimes and these stamps make me giggle

so much, seriously I laugh while I create with them. It 

gives me a chance to think outside the box and just go with my creations. 

So we have NICE.... AND

NAUGHTY! Just like Hallmark right?? Ok ok maybe not! LOL

Anyways hope you found a giggle OR some inspiration....see you all tomorrow!

**New Stamps!!** Shh...It's Not Christmas??!"

Good morning my amazingly talented crafty friends! :) 

I have a FUN new card to share today with a new stamp set from Avocado Arts!

SHHH...don't tell me it's Halloween tomorrow...I'm dreaming of Christmas. 

This stamp set is so warm and inviting, you are going to love it. 

I decided to just play with it and make a living-room scene, 

Now I didn't use my Cameo and digital cut files for this, but I wish I had! LOL

I was knee deep in creating the card and cutting when I decided to keep on 

creating with the stamps, and ended up with an entire living-room!

Oh well it was super fun. 

I even created a Christmas "painting" above the fireplace and

used a brown pearl pen to create the mantle to look like wood

and the little logs in the fireplace. 

 I wish I could show you all in person.

Anyways...be sure to check out the rest of the crew!! :) 

Have a wonderful Tuesday my friends...MUAH!

~Thanksgiving Card- Acrylic & Stamping!!~

Good morning my friends and Happy Monday! :) 

It's fall break in my neck of the woods and the perfect time to 

sneak in some crafting since I don't have to run around with these

beautiful boys of mine! 

I snuck away this weekend and created this card using the 

new Gobble Till You Wobble stamp set~

I love that it's whimsical but also pretty for fall. 

And I tried something BRAND NEW for me! :) 

I used my Silhouette Cameo and the cut files to create the 

little bucks of wheat, then I stamped them with the coordinating stamps.

I have to admit I was a little intimidated but it came out beautifully.

Now for the acrylic stamping I had to use StazOn Gold Metallic Ink.

It worked perfectly of course.  

The card itself is the Clear Scraps Belgrave card- LOVE using the acrylic.

I used Viva Decor Pearl Pens to create the pearls. 

And Quick Quotes papers for the rest. 

Fun project- I love fall!!!

Don't forget to go see the rest of the crew and what they have created,

their work is always just incredible!

~Pocketful Of Memories~

Good morning my friends,

I told y'all I have been crafting this week and one of my projects

is for a friend of mine (Lindy), who is an amazing inspiration to me,

as is her daughter who has helped her mom from the first day.

I have only known her about a year but she has really touched my life.

When Lindy asked me to make a page for her sister in law of course I said YES.

Lindy is a Cancer survivor and she is full of life.

I am always amazed by the people I meet. Those who show you what

is really important in life and just how much surviving really means.

I think that must be our common bond: survival.

She was featured in the Martina McBride video, you can read her

amazing story here: Lindy's Story

It's always hard to figure out what to do on a page you make for someone else

but I had an idea of exactly what I wanted to do for this special page.

Lindy is full is spunk and amazing love...I wanted to make it a heartfelt page

full of bling and pearls. The pocket is filled with photos and newspaper

clippings, there were so many I wanted a nice place to put them

without making 6 or 7 actual pages so I came up with the pocket.

As I approach 40 I am meeting the most amazing people.

This was another way crafting has helped me to reach out

to people who really make a difference in this world~

For this project I used:

Clear Scraps 12X12 acrylic sheet, KanBan Crafts, Beacon 3N1, Viva Decor Pearl Pens,

Momenta alphas, Clearsnap Smooch Spritz on the alphas, vintage lace, stickles.
