CARD MARATHON

I needed all kinds of cards for my stash and I had a card making marathon. These are just a few of the ones that I came up with. I used a very old pad of paper from K and Company. Lots of bling from my stash and several different spellbinders dies. Now I am ready for most occasions.

PAPER PURSES

Good morning, welcome back to my blog and I hope that you enjoy your visit with me. This week I am featuring a project that is a first for me. Paper Purses, there are lots of tutorials for so many different versions of this project. So, are simple and others are more extravagant. I chose to do a very simple project but, I love how it turned out. I made two different sizes and the first using 1 6x6 paper . The paper used for the 3 smaller purses is from Basic Grey and are from 2 very old collections. The second was made using 1 single sheet of 12x12 paper which is from Bazzill card stock. Please let me know what you think. the embellishments are all from my stash.


If you want to see a little more about these purses check out my YouTube channel. I would love it if you followed me there.


Well, these are my projects for the week and I hope that you will return again soon to see what else, I have created.

BIRTHDAY CARD FOR A FRIEND

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!! WELCOME TO 2017

I am back and hope to make 2017 a more creative year with many more post to my blog. So I am starting out the year with a birthday card for a friend who is having a Birthday Challenge on her YouTube channel. You can see my video at.


To make this card I used the corrugated card base from Michaels (they no longer carry these). I used papers from Craft Smith. The stamp is from Graphic 45 and I used two dies from Spellbinders. The bling is from my stash it was no longer in the packaging so I don't remember where it came from. The flowers are from Wild orchid Crafts. The embellishment is from my stash.  I hope you enjoyed this post and I will be back soon with another project.

What do you know about Flipbooks

Good morning bloggers, I just can't seem to get consistent with my post but, believe me I am really trying to figure it out. I have been wondering if maybe I need to change my content or just find the time to set up multiple post at one time. I will figure it out. I just seem to be so busy in my life right now. There is so much going on and there never seems to be enough time for every thing that I want to do.


But, I have lots of projects that I want to show and I will start with the following flipbook. Flipbooks are a major craze out on YouTube and most people use them to send small gifts to other crafty friends. I find that they are perfect for little brag books to showcase your favorite photos. the following is one that I made for one of my challenges on YouTube.



The papers used are from Craftsmart, it is called blush glam and can be found at Michaels. The stamp is from the $1.50 bin at Michaels. The image is from Prima and is one of the Julie Nutting dolls. the stick pin was made by me and the bling is from my stash. the flower is also from the $1.50 bin at Michaels. I colored the image with my copics.


The doily is from Michaels and I used a Spellbinders die to cut the mat. the flower and bling are from my stash. The base for this album is from chipboard.
This is  the back of  the album.

It's Time for a Wedding

Good morning, I am really trying hard to get back into blogging more frequently and updating my blog. So, look for some changes to come as far as the way it looks and the content. But, today I will be posting a crafty project.


This is a card I made for a friends wedding a few weeks ago. I used this stamp which has been in my stash for a very long time and it was not in any packaging so I don't remember where I bought it and I could not read the signature on the stamp. If anyone knows the designer, please let me know. the Flowers are from Prima and Recollections. The stamp congratulations stamp is from Fiskars. the pearls are from the Michaels $1.50 bins. I embossed the front using the Cuttlebug Romance embossing folder and the card stock is from Michaels the 120 pound paper. The Bride really loved the card and it was a gorgeous wedding.

Thanks so much for stopping by and checking out my blog.

GET WELL SOON CARD

Good morning, I am writing this post from Georgia for a short getaway with my sisters. We plan to do lots of shopping and eating of good food. But, we just wanted to have some time together to hang out. And since it has been so long since I posted anything to my blog, I thought that I would upload a photo that has been sitting around in my folder.


A get well card that I made for a co-worker. The image is from Art Impressions and so is the sentiment. I colored it with copics E00, E02, E11, R81, R82, W1, W5. The papers are from the blush glam collection from Smart Craft.  The stamps come from a new set that I got at Michaels recently. Thanks for stopping by. I would love to hear from you so please leave a comment in the box below.
