Hello,

For those of you that do not know me well, here is a little fact about me.  I make cards all the time and am TERRIBLE about mailing them out.  This card is for my daughter in law, whose birthday was weeks ago.  I sent this out yesterday.  I know, it is shameful.  I did call her on her birthday though..

Happy Sunday!

I hope you are all enjoying your weekend.  Things are finally starting to settle down a bit here.  Lonnie’s 90-year-old grandma has been staying with us as the road to her home in Lyons is gone.  It will probably take over a year for it to be passable.  Major sections of the main highway to her house are washed out and her mountain road is simply gone.  It is quite difficult to even grasp the amount of damage this storm has caused.  But I do wish to thank you all for your concerns and well wishes.  We are truly blessed that we all are safe. 

I have had little time for crafting but I do have a cute Halloween card to share.

Happy WitchesThese cute stamps were picked up at Michaels.  Hampton Arts Outlines. Papers are DCWV spooky time stack and a green sheet from my stash. Copics:YG01,05; V12,15,17; YR04,07,09

Thank for looking.

Well here is the last blog for this month’s challenges.

Anything but a card bagThis is for the Teen Line Anything but a card.  The bag is an old Christmas bag that I recycled.  The papers are from Summer Fresh from Simple Stories.  The happy birthday is a card tag that I bought from Joann’s eons ago.  The image was colored with copics but a while back when I didn’t write things down.  Sorry.

The next card is for the favorite techniques challenge.  Layering is a technique I use on almost all my cards.  Also coloring with Copics LOL

Dragon HugsThe papers I used are from My Mind’s Eye Handsome Boy.  Copics:E50,00,21,R20, R30; YR24, E31, E33; YR12,14,18; YR00,02,Y18; BG45,49; B0000,C00, N10, R14; E34,37

Sketch is from Deconstructing Jen

This card is for the Emo challenge.  It could also be used in the smart A$$ challenge as well.

Emo Victorianinside Emo VictorianOutside: Happy Birthday Old Friend.. Inside: No, really…You’re old.  It is just kraft cardstock cut down to 2.75 X 5.5 and scrap paper added inked with Distressed Walnut Ink and the sentiment is computer generated. Copics: E30,31,33,35,37,39; E50,51,53,55,57; E40,41,42,43,44

The last card is for CORINNE.  Yes, here is your Smart A$$ card.  There are you happy now whip cracker. LOL.  Corinne is one of the administrators at Simply B Stamps.  She does a fabulous job keeping all 500+ members straightened out.  We all give her a hard time though.  Don’t worry she gives more than she gets. 🙂  I just love the gals in this group.

Hello.  I’m back!  My visit to Arizona was AWESOME!  The weather was fantastic.  Highs in the 80’s  and sun, sun, sun.  It was especially nice since while I was away it snowed 8 inches or so. 🙂 But it is good to be home. Always nice to sleep in your own bed.  Plus, I missed everyone here.  Jazzy was very happy to have the Mama home.

Today’s image is a fun one from The Paper Shelter.  It is called Watching you Cockatoo.  I thought he was pretty fun.

Paper shelter the cockatoo is watching you Inside: paper cherlter the cockatoo is watching youI used my Silhouette Cameo software to set up the shoe prints and then printed them onto my paper.  I am loving the Cameo!

Copics: E50, 51 and YR30,31 For the bird.  Y32,38 and YR12 for the beak.  YG91,93,95,97,99 for the coat and hat; B91 and C3 and C5 for the magnifying glass. Background is E000,E00, YG91.

The sentiment is just typed on the computer.

Unfortunately, I need alot of these types of cards.  You would think that since I make so many cards I would send them out.

Thanks for visiting.  Jazz and I are off for his promised squirrel chasing walk. LOL

Well Hello and Happy Friday!!  I have been battling bronchitis this week.  UGH!  (cough, cough) Today is the first day I have felt like doing anything.  Pretty sad when you don’t even feel like coloring. 🙁   But today I was able to get back to this fun little card I’d been making and glue everything together.  I am rather pleased with it.  Just don’t look to closely at the cutting. Patient I am not. 🙂

The woodland creatures are from Simply B Stamps.  I thought this card would be perfect for both SimplyB’s third anniversary and The Paper Shelter’s 100th blog challenge.  Congratulations to both!

CelebrationIt is an easel card with a couple of extra pieces.  I used this tutorial from Pam Sparks at Expressions with Heart. It is found here on YouTube.  You should check her out.

Hope you all have a fantastic weekend and if you get the chance check out the special challenge at The Paper Shelter.  They are giving away 5, yep you heard me right, 5 twenty dollar give certificates to their store to celebrate it being their 100th challenge.  So read all about that here.  Now that is a reason to celebrate.

Also If you are looking for a fun loving bunch of gals to pick on, ask questions or simply get inspiration from, check out Simply B’s facebook page here. This is a very active site with lots of helpful info, fun challenges and swaps.  There really is something for everyone.  And if we get nine more members there will be a freebie.  And who doesn’t like a free digi stamp. Whoop Whoop.

Ok I have blathered enough…

Thanks for sticking with me today, must be the cold meds. (snort)
