Tilda with jeans

2011-05-10T19:07:00.000-07:00

Hi thank you for stopping by! This post is going to be longer than the usual few sentances! I made this card for my mom for Mother's Day. I know its not a traditional card, but it has alot of special meaning to it!

My mom decided to get out of stamping and unfortunately I was fortuneate enough to take care of her things. I felt the need to make her a card with ALL of her FAVORITE things, so I could not use mom in the sentiment lol. My mom means the world to me and it broke my heart when she made this decision, but there are reasons behind it and i had to respect that! I now have a new craft room and will be selling many items on ebay in the upcoming days and posting pictures of the craft room once everything has been put in its place. My neice worked so hard on getting everything moved and put where it belonged since ive been on the "injured list" for quite some time.

Anyways, this was the first Tilda I colored completly with Copics that I was ok to post lol (took alot of practice and I hope I'm close to getting it right)

I've looked for multiple Challenges to post this card into, but could only come up with http://http//stampinbsdesignteam.blogspot.com/ where the challenge is to use Flower Soft, Liquid Applique or glitter. Thanks for looking and have a WONDERFUL week!

Anniversary wishes

2011-04-04T06:15:00.000-07:00

Hello and thanks for stopping by! My card for the MMSC at http://priscillastyles.blogspot.com/ is a little late this week, but better late than never. I originally had my parents in mind when I made this card because they have an anniversary coming up, but since my mom sees everything I put on here...maybe I won't give it to them! lol I'd like to suprise her just once! The DP I used is BG Curio and for the computer generated sentiment on the front, I used glassy glaze to give it more of a vintage look (at least that's the look I was going for). I will finish the inside with the rest of the sentiment (ran out of time). The ribbon, flowers and charm are all from my stash. Thanks for looking and have a great week!

I purchased the tulip from somebody's Etsy store (I apologize for not remembering where). The ribbon, roses and pearls are from my stash. Thank you for looking!

Dad's Birthday

2011-03-22T08:36:00.000-07:00

Good morning! Rainy and windy here so I figured instead of doing unnecessary things like laying on the couch all day watching movies I worked on my dad's birthday card which was inspired by Priscillas sketch over at http://priscillastyles.blogspot.com/. I do believe I will be entering at least 2 cards in her challenge this week since I love this sketch! (I have another card about half made). Most of my card is made with SU supplies (stamp, print paper, embossing powder and hardware) The DP is K & CO and the cardstock is Bazzill. Thanks for taking the time to stop by and take a peek! Have a WONDERFUL week!

I guess I will have it in my stash for any upcoming babys that may arrive! LOL I had to purchase this ADORABLE baby Sugar Nellie Digi and it goes so well with the Nitwit Collection!

Hi there!! I first off have to thank Priscilla at http://priscillastyles.blogspot.com/ for making me go out of my "comfort" zone! Every week she has sketches that really challenge my mind and this week I would have to say was one of the hardest yet! I bought this digi along with Grace, (who I used last week). I saw Denise also used Joy, and I must say she did a FABULOUS job, as well as the rest of the DT. I was almost afraid to use this digi! But, this is what I came up with and I can say I am quite pleased at the way it turned out! Thank you for taking the time to stop by and look! Have a WONDERFUL week!

The Beary Scrap

The Beary Scrap is a small, family owned, independent scrapbook store located in Shavertown, Pennsylvania and originated as on online business. They have lots of hard to find scrapbook goodies to feed your paper crafting desires and continue to add our products to the website weekly, so there is lots more to come. Best of all, because they are such a small business... when the "big guy" or "gal" sells out, chances are they still have it in stock.

Good morning and happy Tuesday!! I sure hope you all are not having the hot, muggy weather like we are in Wisconsin!! If you are, try to make the best of it!! LOL
This card was on order for me to do for a baby shower. The baby's name is Rosa and the lady wanted me to put roses on the card. I waited for the right challenge to do just that!
Anyways, this card was also made for the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge at http://priscillastyles.blogspot.com.
The image is from Belles and Whistles...isn't she the cutest!! She was colored with Copics and Prismacolor pencils. The DP is from Graphic45 called "From Baby to Bride". I used a cuttlebug rose embossing folder purchased out of the country on Ebay. The pearls were purchased some time ago and I believe they are zva. I also used ribbon and flowers from my stash. Thank you so much for coming to visit! Have a GREAT week!!

Angela at Sew many cards has so many adorable images!! I have a hard time deciding every time I visit her store.

I used my Cuttlebug snowflake folder on Bazzill cardstock, DP, chrystal flourishes, ribbon and rhinestones from my stash, chrystal flourishes from my stash. I am not sure how visible it is to you folks in the picture, but I did use glitter on the snowflakes in the globe and finished it off with 4 layers of Chrystal Effects to give it the "glassy" look.

Good Morning and welcome! I am so excited about becoming part of the Midnight Madness ( http://priscillastyles.blogspot.com/) Design Team members!! They are an awesome group of ladies and also, very inspiring! With that being said, this is my card for MMSC56.
The stamps I used are from SU called Noble Deer. I chalked the buck as well as the background. I used copper EP on the brown strip to keep the copper look. The DP is BG Cappella (awesome papers!) I added 3 copper brads to 2 of the corners and did some paper piercing in the opposite corners, and distressed all of the dark brown Bazzil cardstock. The ribbon was purchased at Hobby Lobby and the buckles were part of my stash. Thanks for stopping by, and have a wonderful week!!

Rainbow Bridge

2010-05-27T09:33:00.001-07:00

I had to put my cat of 19 years to sleep today and at 1 point my mom shared this poem with me. It really hit home today. R.I.P Mitsy!!

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

Paper bag album page

2010-05-26T19:17:00.000-07:00

Hello and welcome to my blog!! This photo is the cover of a baby girl paper bag scrapbook album. I decided to go with the CAS challenge from Midnight Madness at http://priscillastyles.blogspot.com/. I went to Hobby Lobby the other day and saw the new Sweet Pea DP and thought it was absolutely ADORABLE!! I also got the flowers (which I used Stickles on) and brad in the center of the flower. The charm was from my stash and I got the precious moments sticker from my mom (THANKS MOM). All ribbon used on this page was from my stash. Thanks for looking and have a wonderful week!!

My Parents Anniversary

2010-05-22T19:14:00.001-07:00

Welcome to my blog!! I made this card for my parents Anniversary. I decided to really challenge myself with this card! I wanted to make them a vintage, garden themed card in the neutral colors. I used the MS Trellis punch to punch out areas of the top and bottom to give it a garden feel. The DP was new to me at the time, so I had to use it!! It is from the Paper Studio called "Mirabelle". The cardstock is none other than Bazzill. I used some heart charms and cream colored ribbon. The stamp is from SU. I got those small little words in the ovals from my mom. The phrases were computer generated. What better for a garden theme than MS Butterfly punches? And last but not least, always gotta have those pearls for a little more elegance!! I had alot of fun making this card and I am really pleased with the outcome of it!! Thanks for looking and have a wonderful weekend!!

Vintage Christmas

2010-05-22T19:05:00.000-07:00

Hi, welcome and thanks for visiting!! I know it's not that time of year yet , but when I saw the challenge over at Midnight Madness (http://priscillastyles.blogspot.com/ ) this week, I thought of using this image because a couple of weeks ago, I used this image for my challenge and took the card to work to show a fellow card maker and someone decided they really needed it. I got this cute little girl from the digiscrapwarehouse. I colored her up with Copics and Prismacolor pencils and put white flock on her coat and muff to mimic fur. I mounted her on Bazzill cardstock and then DCWV DP. The ribbon was from my stash and the snowflakes were punched out with MS Snowflake punches. I used Kaisercraft pearls and a clear glitter pen to make the snow sparkle. Thanks for looking and have a wonderful weekend!

Cupcake for my neice

2010-05-16T17:29:00.000-07:00

Hi all!! Happy Sunday night!! I am extremely late on my challenge for Midnight Madness this week, but not too late LOL. Anyways, I made this card based on Priscillas sketch at http://priscillastyles.blogspot.com/ for my neices 18th birthday. Her birthday was Thursday so I should really find a belated verse to put on the inside huh?

I am so embarrassed to forget where I got the cupcake digi from, but I really liked it. I used my DCWV Linen Closet DP along with some paper flowers I got from our local craft store. I also used Prisma color pencils and gamsol, ribbon from my stash, MS branch punch, buttons, Cuttlebug, and not to mention Stickles!! Thanks for looking and have a wonderful week!!

ODBD Mothers Day

2010-05-07T08:12:00.001-07:00

Good morning and thanks for stopping by!! I made this card for the Midnight Madness sketch Challenge over at http://priscillastyles.blogspot.com/..what a fun challenge!! I originally had a different card made and took it to work to show a fellow card maker, but unfortunately someone must have decided they needed it for something. So I went to work on this 1. I got this DP last week from a friend. It is called Marrebelle from the Paper Studio..It is absolutely GORGEOUS paper!! The stamps are from ODBD. I also used half pearls, crocheted lace, ribbon, prima rose, Copics, and the brad I got from my mom so Im sorry I cannot tell you who makes that. Thanks for looking and have a wonderful Mother's Day/weekend!!

Confirmation Blessings

2010-04-27T15:13:00.000-07:00

Hi all!! Happy Tuesday! As I stated in my last post, I have some cards to get caught up on and since 1 of them was a Confirmation card, I went to Our Daily Bread Designs and bought this stamp set. It is absolutely GORGEOUS!! Went to mom's house this weekend and saw her new MS punch and just had to use it!! Well, I punched 1 time with her punch and it snapped..to make a long story short, I went to Michaels to exchange it and bought myself 1 also (a must have punch, lol)..Anyways, this is my take on the sketch at http://priscillastyles.blogspot.com/. I used DCWV Linen Closet cardstock and DP, Coodinations cardstock, MS Garden Trellis punch, MS branch punch, Confirmation stamp set from ODB, prima rose, stickles, and lots of pearls!! Thanks for looking and have a wonderful week!!

Mothers Day

2010-04-25T08:45:00.000-07:00

Good morning and happy Sunday all!! It seems there is not enough time in a day or a week to get done everything I want to, so I devoted pretty much this entire weekend to making the cards I have been putting off. This card was made for the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge at http://priscillastyles.blogspot.com/. I am really sorry the picture is a little fuzzy, but I think I've had a little too much coffee this morning and I cannot stop my hands from shaking lol.
Since Mothers Day is right around the corner and I have a few people that have asked me for a few different cards, I figured I would get started on them with this sketch. My mom and I ordered a couple different stamp sets from Our Daily Bread this past week and before I gave her the set she ordered, I figured I'd use it since it is such a beautiful set. I also used DP from K & Co., Zva pearls, Nestabilities, MS Butterfly punches, the ribbon and lace is from my stash. Thanks for looking and have a wonderful week!!

Birthday Boy

2010-04-18T16:41:00.000-07:00

Hi there!! This week was a very hectic week, so I am extremely late posting my challenge!! This card was made for the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge at http://priscillastyles.blogspot.com/. I wanted to make this card for a little boy because, to me, a puzzle fits a little boy. My mom went on a mission to find the template for the puzzle pieces when she saw the challenge (thanks mom!). I got this digital stamp from Mo's Digital Pencil and used prisma color pencils and gamsol to color it. I used liquid applique for the cupcake, and the cuttlebug for the puzzle pieces and background. The DP was found in my stash along with the buttons and ribbon. Thanks for looking and have a wonderful week!!

2010-04-11T11:31:00.000-07:00

Hi, welcome, and thanks for visiting my blog. This card was made for the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge at http://priscillastyles.blogspot.com/. I did not make the fancy or the CAS..I made it somewhere in between. I bought the Luxury stack, amongst others, last weekend from Joanns and I am in need of some sympathy cards for my stash, so I decided to use this brown paper (I love it!!) I also used the Lovely as a Tree stamp set and a border punch from SU, some ribbon and buttons from my stash and the cardstock is from The Paper Studio. Thanks for looking and have a wonderful day!!

Baby Tayla

2010-04-03T05:24:00.000-07:00

Hi there!! This is my CAS card for the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge at http://priscillastyles.blogspot.com/. I saw this Digi stamp some time ago on Sew Many Cards and thought it was adorable, so I had to purchase it and use it.

Thanks for looking and have a happy Easter!

Patchwork Quilt

2010-04-03T05:12:00.000-07:00

Good morning!! Happy Easter everyone! This card was made for the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge at http://priscillastyles.blogspot.com/.This is 1 of the harder challenges for me because as soon as I saw the sketch I thought of something quilted. I had a cookout last weekend and my mom brought me a paper pack from DCWV called Linen Closet for being the "hostess with the mostest" lol..Think I should have her over every weekend (just kidding mom). That paper is beautiful!! I went ahead and started making a card and I did not like it!! Was not going to post it. I then proceeded to make a different card to which I will be putting into the CAS MM challenge. Last night I was bound and determined to do this card, so here it is! The stamp set is from PTI. I also used crochet ribbon, embroidery floss, white cardstock and brads. Thanks for looking and have a wonderful Easter!!

I found this cute rabbit and since Easter is a week away and my son still believes in the Easter Bunny, I figured this card would be cute to put in his basket along with all the other goodies.
I colored the bunny with a mixture of SU markers, Copics and Prismacolor pencils. The ribbon and pearls are from my stash. The DP is from MME (Laundry Line). I also used Coordinations cardstock, Cuttlebug, Spellbinders, and Stickles!! Thanks for looking and have a great day!!

Hi! Happy New Year to all!! This card was made for the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge at
http://priscillastyles.blogspot.com/. I went shopping the other day with my mom and found LOTS of stuff!! Paper and embellishments and ohhh all the fun stuff lol! Needless to say..my Christmas gift cards are used up (and then some) LOL! When I got the K&CO Christmas paper and saw the teal I knew I needed to do an angel with fluffy stuff on it. Robin (the angel) is a digital stamp from Mo's digital pencil and I used Copic Markers to color him ( my first shot at Copics). I used gold cording for his swing ropes and gold Stickles for his halo, wings and the dots on the scalloped oval. The corners are Black Magic cardstock with Cuddlebug Snowflake EF and Art glitter, gold ribbon under the edges. The white "fluffy" is actually a boa that we picked up in our travels the other day (what a mess!! LOL. I used Stickles in the cloud and gold half pearls in the bottom corner. Thanks for looking and reading my babbling! Have a wonderful day!!

The supplies used were: Walmart white cardstock, corner punch(not sure of name), Santa Collage stamp, SU Not quite Navy ink, prismacolor pencils, stickles, art glitter, zig glue pen, silver marker(for his glasses), colluzzle, ribbon, SU word window punch, white flock, silver cord, eyelets, and snowflake ef.

This card holder front slides to the side and the card sits on the inside. I removed the photo because even though the card and account is long expired, it was foolish of me to post it. Thanks Project Create for bringing this to my attention.
