~Embossing W/ Enamel Powders & Stamps~

Good morning and happy day before Thanksgiving!

I know you all are probably running around crazy busy, today

is my baking day. Most of my close friends left town for Thanksgiving

but a few stragglers stayed, and we will be spending the day together. 

I am in charge of the pies! :) Anyways...on to the crafts right?

I created this card using Momenta papers (I love their new lines) and

the Momenta metal snowflakes BUT I used Globecraft Piccolo Enamel 

to add the copper colors. And I used Avocado Arts stamps to create the 

trees, then I used the enamel powder on them to make it really special. 

 

I love the whole look, if I had enough paper I would make all my Christmas

cards just like these! I also used a White Pearl Pen to create the snow~

I had a fun time with this one...you should totally try the enamel powders! :) 

Ok off to bake my friends...

I will be taking tomorrow off but coming back with a special project

on Friday for a special BLOG HOP! 

Plenty of prizes to so please come back if you have a chance.

Happy Wednesday. 

~World Card Making Day Fun!

Good morning my crafty friends,

all you card makers probably have heard it is World Card Making Day

today so in the spirit of card making I made this fun little card. 

Don't you love the patina on the frame?

 I created it myself using the Piccolo Vintage Copper Enamel Powder. 

The papers are all Momenta, and the metal dragonfly too. 

 And of course the stamp is Avocado Arts.

 OH and the ink is Colorbox ink. I love how it all came together,

the newest Momenta papers are amazing!!! :) 

And I definitely am thankful for all my blog friends

Thanks for continuing on this journey with me.

I am blessed with INCREDIBLE friends and a wonderful family. 

Happy Card Making!

~Dress Forms In Acrylic!~

Good morning  my crafty friends,

Fall is in the air and Salted Caramel Mochas are back at Starbucks! LOL

I found out yesterday and YEA! :) I am not even a Starbucks fan but

I do love that, so fun times. 

Ok anyways

I have a Clear Scraps project to share today but first I 

wanted to share their BRAND NEW Expressions....

this is what I will be working on this week! 

I am SO excited to see COURAGE and BLESSINGS especially. 

But I love them all of course. 

Ok I have a beautiful card to share today, that I created using the Clear Scraps

Clearly Accent Embellishments (Dress Form) and the Momenta Paper Pad and

the new Momenta Metals (love those!).

I also used the Clearsnap Glitter (love that too). 

 If you head to the Clear Scraps blog I made a tutorial on embossing the

acrylic and creating this card.

I love the rich papers and the beautiful acrylic. 

Now I am off to create with the fun new Expressions today, and

finish my new Online Holiday Card Class for My Creative Classroom! :) 

Happy Thursday my friends. 

~Enjoy...With Glitter!~

 Good morning my friends, 

I have been swamped with sick little people this week! 

Thankfully they are almost all well and back to school finally....

Now I get time to play again. :) 

This is a fun little Easel Card I made using the Piccolo/Globecraft Easel

card and the Momenta paper and Metals. 

You can find a step by step tutorial on the Globecraft Blog right here

http://globecraftmemories.blogspot.com/2012/08/do-you-decorate-your-globe.html 

 I shared how I made the chipboard frame using Clearsnap Glitter. 

And made the glitter word using Clearsnap Design Adhesives. 

I love those little things!!

I also love the metal butterflies, I think I will be going to buy more metals. 

They are so easy to apply, just stick them on because they come with adhesive. 

Ok that's it for me, I am off for one last day with my little munchkin, then

happy weekend to come...with the fam & my girlyfriends! :) 

Hey every girl needs a day off with her chickitas! 

~Oh Happy Day- Mini Album~

 Good morning my friends, 

I have a fun project to share today, a little bamboo spine book 

I made using my Bind-It-All. I had alot of fun making this one. 

You can see I used the new metal butterflies from Momenta on it. 

 And of course I stitched the cover pages. The paper is all Crate Paper. 

 This is how it looks on the inside with the Cover-All book from 

Zutter, I really like the Cover-alls, they are very cool. 

You can actually find step by step instructions for this on the

Bind-It-All blog, I posted last week. :)

I sure would like to see if you have made one. 

This is my first and I really enjoyed it. 

Ok Happy Monday my friends, I am off to work today! :)
