Happy Holidays

This one is soooo cute! I got it from Tracy and she did a fantastic job with the coloring. I don't know what she used, but when I feel the image... it feels like sticker (but it's not!) It's funny.... I was just checking out some Christmas stamps to buy on line and this was on my wish list. Thanks Tracy for the beautiful card!


Are you ready for Christmas? Only 6 more days!

My last Christmas Cards

Wheew... I think I'm all done with Christmas cards!

I was able to do one embroidery card and I did the easiest one . I was going to add some beads, but just didn't have enough time.

Driving was BRUTAL today!! The kids were late 1 hour, it would of been 1.5 but the last kid didn't need a ride. Ahhhh.... just 2 more days and we're OFF for 2 weeks. Hopefully the weather will get better and melt all the snow!!! You know... I'm soooo OOOKKK with no snow for Christmas.

Meowy Christmas

This image I think I got from Shannon. I think this one is my favorite (could it be because it's GREEN?)
and I just love the sentiment "Meowy Christmas" that is just way tooo cute!

Keep on bloggin!

more Christmas card

Here are some of the cards I made for SIN. Just sooooo glad I was able to borrow the stamps from the Gals.
Can't remember who I got this image from, but she was so much fun to color with. I wanted it all sparkly and my Sakura gel pens didn't really cut it, so.... I used my embossing markers and then emboss with Stardust powder.

I know I got this image from Nancy! They are done all the same way, just changed the layout a bit.

This image is from Nancy too! I think I stamped 10 of each last CalGals "Thanks". LOL, I might have to borrow more for next year.

I still have about 3 more Christmas cards to post for you. But for now I hope you're enjoying the rest of your day.

Christmas Baskets

Another order for Christmas baskets that's due today. Only 7 though... so it was very easy.

They wanted snackies for the office staff to share. It doesn't look much... but believe me there's tons in the basket.

I still have to post the rest of the Christmas cards, which I finished last night ready for pick up tonight.

It is very COLD here in Calgary today. I didn't take my pre-schooler to school cause it's only for 2 hours of play and snack, which I think she can do very comfortably at home.

Christmas Cards

I was able to make some cards last Sunday. I was having so much fun using Faith's technique that I did all 12 in one day.

I used my embossing markers for this one and I started coloring Rudolph with the only brown I have and it was very dark, so... Rudolph ended up being silver.

All of the stamp images I got from the Cal-Gals. I should really buy some of my own for next year.

This one is sooo cute! Notice the one on the left? I was coloring it and was kind a wondering why little kitty's paws were so huge. Then I realized that it was part of the hat. I guess I will have to fix that one!

I got the idea from Nancy and so as the Christmas tree image. I colored the tree with my copic and some with stampin up markers, then versamark and embossing powder.

Holiday Sparkles

I got this card from Nancy. Along with some goodies (I didn't get a chance to take a picture of it cause I coudn't wait to open it...LOL it was in a see thru bag!) I love how she did the circle corner punch and the little bling-bling. Thanks Nancy!

Invites

All done with the order!! 30 purse style and 12 shakers. I was getting tiered of making the same thing over and over. Don't get me wrong... when you have to make that much, you have to do all the same design or you will never get it done.

The shakers was so much fun to make. Thank god for the cuttlebug and nesties.

Paper Embroidery

It's time consuming but the result is worth it. I tried to do the unisex card, but it ended up more of a girly card with that ribbon. LOL and I think they are hoping for a boy.

Spring clean up in November

I spent all day Saturday re-organizing my craft room to make room for my new 12 X 12 racks from wiredisplays. I was gonna get the tall skinny one, but no place for it in my room. Instead I went with 3 stackable side by side 12 slots cause I know I can put it on my dryer. Tey're $35.95 each with 25% as is sales discount (Canadian dollors)

I also put my other rack on the washer (hubby said he will hang it from the ceiling to raise it off the machine a couple of inches)

And of course I had to re-invent my ribbon holder!

I got the idea from Ellen Hutson. I do sponging a lot and I always get the ink all over my fingers, but this way you have the paper clip as the handle. I also bought a storage for it so I have one sponge per color.

Christmas Baskets

Wow! I did all 80 baskets 2 weeks before the deadline. You should of seen my basement though...What a mess! Of course it doesn't help when you have two little girls checking out the goodies and doing the quality check every time I leave the room.

Hopefully I will get to do it again next year... (hopefully)

I guess I'm off to my next project (42 invitations) oh.. and tomorrow is CalGals night...WOOOOHOOOO

we are doing it at the Scrapbook Pantry. dangerous combination!!!

COACH mini purse

I just love making this little purses. I know you're sick of it by now... but I discovered how to cut the handles with out breaking your cuttlebug plate. It is very simple and I thought I would share it with you!



It's my first tutorial so... be nice ok?

You will need 3 sizes to cut the handles. It's up to you if you want thin or thick handles.

I have to warn you that by doing this, it will bend your die a little bit.

This one is the middle size die.

How easy was that?
