Holiday Greetings


Glitter paper that I love! I believe it's Martha Stewart..... I really have to do a better job listing all the items I used when I create a card. The sad part is.... every time I check out a card, the first thing I look for is the recipe. Such double standard of me don't you think?

Hate the paper!

Doodle Bug glitter paper..... was nice when I bought it.... half of the glitter came off after I grabbed it from the shelf... more of it came off after cutting it.... all of it came off when I glued it.

Other than that.... I love the die by PTI.

Clean and Simple


Love the sketch by FTL 117. Clean & Simple and easy to make. Of course we are going by quantity and lots of it.... I am using all of my punches and very small amount of stampin'.

I have started my Christmas Cards the beginning of this year (5 cards per month) and so far I have total of 80 cards. But.... I have been invited to this Christmas Craft Fair today to sell home made cards and I might end up with zero card for my self. I might load up on meds again and hope to create 40 cards in one night to catch up.

Happy Holidays


Just love the design of this punch by EK success along with the paper by me&my Big ideas.

Mojo is back!

Look at me go!! I did 40 cards yesterday when I'm supposedly sick with a cold. I have been taking Cold-FX and been going to bed early so I can go to our Calgals. Of course I had to cancel the day before and then to find out I have all that energy the night of. Over all.... it was good crafting at home cause there's no way I can come up with 2 cards at our Calgals.
This one is my favourite! I used Martha Stewart snowflake punch with PTI stamp.

Sweet N Sassy

Another glitter card for you. Still have to make more Christmas cards, but so far the one I've created are not the ideal card to mass produce. I also have my class next month and of course we are making Christmas cards. I will try and start that early instead of waiting till the very last minute.

Glitters and more glitters! Another Mojo sketch for you..... I like this one though. I just hate it when there's more glitter on me than on the card.

What do you think of the big bow?? I don't really like it, but since it's my first attempt crafting again.....I guess I shouldn't complain. It was painful! Even with the sketch, it was a struggle to complete this one.

Calgals

It's pretty sad that I'm just posting my card from our last month's Calgals. I borrowed everything except for the image. Thanks ladies!

Tonight I'm going to craft!! I'm going to sit in my craft room and make something. I have no books to read and I think I'm gonna have a better chance of crafting this time. LOL, I can just see it now... I'll probably end up re-organizing my craft room.

Happy Halloween!

My girls can't wait for Halloween!! They been asking to decorate the house, but I didn't wan to dig for our Halloween stuff. I know... I know... I'm such a bad mom.
After a day of nagging and whining..... My oldest one finally convinced me to get some pumpkins. We didn't buy the real one for I wanted to be able to use them again for next year.
We got the pumpkins from Michaels where they are 60% off and I used my HotMarks instead of the Pumpkin Carving kit.
It was actually very easy....

and fun!

Sorry I have no card for you... I have been trying, but my MOJO is gone and it's also hard to concentrate when all I want to do is read. Another Vampire story by Karen Marie Moning, I have total of 4 books to read and I'm on the 4th one. Maybe I'll be able to craft then once I'm done.....

My oh my!


It has been almost a month since I have posted a card..... can't believe it has been that long. I do have a MOJO card for you though... I must warn you, it's half of the sketch... but since I haven't been crafting for a while, thought it should be OK.
I have been busy reading Sherrilyn Kenyon's books. So far I have read 13 out of 19 Dark Hunter novel. Hoping I will soon be back to my regular crafting.....Tomorrow is CALGALS and I'm looking forward to that! The last time we did Calgals was May 28!!!! Hoping it will be a good night for crafting with less gabbing and snacking. Yeah right!!! who am I kidding? I'll pack everything I own and then just sit there and watch them all craft.

Thanks so much





Wowser! The only card I can come up with this weekend and believe me... I struggled big time. My craft room is a mess and my mojo sketch for this week is still waiting on my table. Not that I have any idea how I'm gonna do the sketch!!


This one is for The Sweet Stop Sketch challenge. I'm not liking it at all, but I guess it will do since MOJO is no where near my craft room.
