The card and bow.

Here I go again with those wonderful paper bows. I found some wrapping paper that was white, brown and baby blue. Obviously, the baby will be a boy. So, I went to work to make a coordinating card and bow. The bow turned out lovely, even without using DS paper. I just used the regular SU! cardstock. The card I loved! I think that I will use it for my next workshop. It was so quick and easy, yet I think that it looks wonderful!!

A Baby Shower Gift.

A while back, I had seen this idea in a Stampin' Up! Stampin' Success magazine. I loved it. Well, I have a baby shower to attend and the father works on a dairy farm and mom is a flight attendant. I thought that they would enjoy this. I expanded on some of the original ideas! And, I was pleased how it turned out! Hopefully, the new parents will enjoy it too!

Blurrry, but close up!

I don't know why I can't get this to focus, but here is a close up of the design. Merry Christmas, everyone!!!

Mission Accomplished!

Phew!!! I have completed all 60 Christmas Cards!!! I fell in love with this set as soon as I saw it. So, I decided to use it for my cards....60 of them! Actually, it wasn't too bad. I had a 6 hour card making marathon with some of my stamping buddies on Saturday. And, over yesterday and this morning, they are complete!! Now for the addressing and signing!! I used SU! Bravo Burgundy and Brocade Blue. I am pleased with the outcome!!!

Another Paper Creation!

I would like to start off this post, by giving all do credit to my good friend Keri, who inspired me to do this blog thing. Not only do I love sharing what I create, but even more seeing other blogs and what others create!!! Thanks Keri!!!!

This box was made with just 3 sheets of 12 X 12 cardstock! And, I must say that it was not that difficult at all!! I found the tutorial on another blog. So, simple and neat!!! The possibilities are endless....baby gifts, teacher gifts, Christmas, birthday....where to begin!!! Thanks so much for looking!! Have a great day!

Paper Bows

When I woke up this morning at 4:45, I knew that I had to get up and be productive....I just didn't know what I was going to produce. So, as I was browsing the internet, I found a bow tutorial on SCS. OMG!!! I have never done anything so easy!!! I whipped out four of them in no time. And, now I know what one of my projects will be this week at my workshop!!! I think that the ladies will love these!!! All you need is a 6" X 12 " piece of double sided paper, 3 brads, 3 pop up glue dots and adhesive. Now, I know what I am going to do with all of the extra paper that I have!!!! SCS is a wonderful place...go check it out!!!!

A simple Christmas Card.

I have been designing many Christmas cards this year! I love to make them...and, since I don't want to 'publish' the one that I am going to be sending to all of my friends, I will upload others! This was so easy! And, I must say that the picture does not do it justice!! IRL it is stunning, if I do say so myself. I used lovely as a tree and whisper white craft ink. Then I embossed it with winter white EP. It is so fresh and crisp!! Now, I wonder if I made the wrong decision for our Christmas cards???

Getting Ready for Christmas!

I can not believe that I am saying this, but it is time!! It is time to get all of those little gifts out of the way, that can be kept safe until Christmas. One of the things that I will be mass producing this year are the peppermint pattie covers! They are so easy and so cute!!! You can stamp with any set that suits you!!! I have used "bits and pieces" of several Christmas sets! They take virtually no time and I think that people will love them. I hope that they will be able to eat them. Some people have even added ribbon to them and you can use them as ornaments, too!!!

Rainy Day = Scrapbooking!

Lucky for me it was a cool wet day. So, I took the opportunity to scrapbook some soccer pages. I used SU! True Thyme and Basic Blact to keep these pages nice and crisp. I wish that I could get paid for this!!!

The "other" page.

Here is the opposite page to the other soccer page. I guess that I should get back up there and make some more pages while I am in the mood! Happy scrapping!!!
