new cards
It has been a little bit since I have been here sorry, I have a few new cards to show this evening. these first 5 were done with one random stamped sheet of 1381 White Daisy cs, I used My Acrylix stamp set D1186 Rustic Flower, Z1283 Autumn buttons, Z1094 Embroidery Floss, Z1052 Ric Rac Ribbon, 1275 Outdoor Denim cs, Z2140 Outdoor Denim exclusive ink, X5639 Sweet leaf cs, Z2153 Sweet leaf ink, Z1215 Outdoor denim brad from the autumn collection, D1283 Say it in Style stamp set, and wild cards Cricut cart for the happy birthday.
This one was done using D1186 Rustic Flower, the hummingbird is from C1389 So Sweet my Acrylix stamp set, 1381 White daisy cs, I stamped the flowers onto the card and then stamped them on an extra sheet of cs and cut them out, after stamping on the card base I cut around the flowers and then pop dotted the cut out flowers on top of the other cut flowers, I used outdoor denim buttons for the center of the flowers, I sponged Z2153 Sweet Leaf ink onto the bottom of the card. I used coloring pencils for the bird.
this is a picture of the card opened so you can see how the flowers were cut on the base.
This one I made for someone who had twins and got a boy and a girl, I saw this design somewhere and it was done with just stamping so I decided to do it with my new Cricut cart New Arrival and I think it turned out okay. The ducks were cut a 1/4 and I put Z1217 Metal bitty brads on it make it look like little hooks. I used 1285 Heavenly blue cs, 1299 Baby Pink cs, 1240 Sunkiss yellow cs, Z2140 Outdoor demin ink, and some yellow ribbon I had hangin around.
this one was fun to make.
These next 2 I made for MJ who is retiring at the end of this week, this design is from the Felicity collection, I changed mine just a bit as there are no buttons and no ribbon.
And I finnished my Christmas page for Hunter's album, I just have to put the journeling on it now.
don't for get that National Papercrafting month is almost over, get your Felicity collection while it is available visit my website to see how to get it for FREE.

new things
Hello, I just love the New Spring Idea book, one of sure to be a favorite is the new X7119B Veranda paper pack. On page 8 of the idea book is a card that I really liked and I needed a special thank you card for someone, the card I made is almost the same as the book except I made a few minor changes, not much. I used C1389 So Sweet stamp set which is another favorite, 1771 Waterbrush, Z2769 Creme Brulee ink, Z2164 Sorbet ink, Z2165 Juniper ink, Z2120 Garden Green ink, Z1131 Creme Brulee ribbon rounds. I made 2 of these cards each just a little different, the top one has little chocolate pearls and the second has white ones. and the ribbons are a little different.
I decided to get some scrapbooking done, I want to get caught up on my scrapbooking so I started with Hunter's book. I used the X7112B Animal Cookies paper pack. This is cute and fun papers. I used my cricut and Alphalicious cart for the letters. I decided to wait and put my journaling on later after I posted pictures. I still want to add a little more to the pages but I will later.
Ensemble Piece -9030 Imagine Book
Overture - 9030 Imagine Book
I really like having these books, they come in very handy.

Merry Christmas
Just wanted to say Merry Christmas to all and have a wonderful and safe Holiday. These are just a couple of the dozens of pictures I took of the snow that fell on 12/19 and 12/20, by the time it was all done we got about 23, 24 inches, my birdbath was buried, I am going to scrapbook some of the pictures so I will post that later. It was beautiful to watch, but not so much fun to shovel.
This is the deepest snow we have had since 1996.
These next pictures are of the card workshop that was finally able to happen after work one day.
This is Shaun's
This is Karen's
This is Deloris'
We had a good time and everyone's cards came out different, I like to watch the creative side of people come out when they say I am not creative.

Just a little Hello
So I have been without the internet since saturday afternoon, something went wrong and I didn't get things right till this afternoon, a young man named Alvin at tech support at Embarq helped me to fix things.
This is the cardworkshop I am doing, it was suppose to have happened this past Saturday, but due to snow things got cancelled.
These cards are using the X5808 Creative Basics Jingle collection, X5753 Tulip cs, Z2166 Tulip ink, X5752 Juniper cs, Z2165 Juniper ink, D1366 Hoilday Trinkets, B1313 Merry Pursits, C1376 Stocking Stlye, C1378 Heartfelt Christmas, Z1151 Foam Tape, 1771 Waterbrush, and Tereas Black's glitter techinque, which is alot of fun and a little messy, and I used my Cricut to cut the snowflakes. I used Antoinnette's template for these. This is 20 cards, and very easy to put together.
I have been seeing alot of the homemade dry erase boards so I decided to give them a try, they came out okay so I decided to make some as gifts for Christmas, I hope the person's I made these for will like them. They are the 8x10 size. I got the frames from Walmart, all my letters were cut using my Cricut and the Alphalicious cart, I used several different paper paks for these.
