It has been a while...

Ok, so it has been so long since I have posted. I'm going to try to do better and get some of you to actually want to view this blog!! I have a few projects that I'm going to post and then I'm going to go buy a new camera soon so I can actually take good pics of my projects. I suppose that is what stopped me from keeping up with this...I HATE MY CAMERA!!! So, the ones I'm posting are scanned and I hope to be able to take pics soon and post more often!!

Have a great day :0)

Thank you Lori #3!!

Lori,

Thank you so much for the card. I got it yesterday before I went to the hospital to see how my dad did in surgery. Perfect timing...I was so upset and really needed it!! You are so sweet!

Thanks again so much!!

Scrapbook Page Contest Entry

Ok, so I really don't scrap (yet), but I entered this page in a contest recently. It did not win...but I think it is pretty darn good. This is my youngest at halloween in 2006. Isn't he a cutie pie?! The chipboard frame scanned very dark, but it is actually Always Artichoke.

Dazzling Watercolor Crayons

I really like the end result of this card. I stamped the three images by coloring the stamp with the watercolor crayons and misting with water before applying to cs. Then, while the image was still quite wet, I sprinkled on heat and stick powder and zapped it with the heat gun. After this I sprinkled on some daz. diamonds and gave it another zap of heat. It is hard to tell from the pic, but it looks so yummy!!

Time Flies...

So sorry for being MIA. I just cannot believe how fast time has been going and how much I seem to need more of it on a daily basis. Anyway, I have had some time to stamp and hope to be loading it on my blog in the next few days...starting now!!

Scouts at Play

Ok, I'm finally back. I have been so busy and had no time to stamp...what the heck?! Well, I plan to get back in the swing of things, but in the mean time I'll post a pic of the very simple Cub Scout invitation I made for our upcoming banquet. Yes, simple and kinda boring, we have a limited budget, but this card (38 of them) took forever!!!! I used WCC on the images. Whew, I'm kinda sick of these images.

Anyway, you may recognize these images from the very popular and very retired Scouts at Play set. How lucky am I to find someone with this set that I could borrow. Guess who is stamping a BUNCH of these images for herself to use for future scouting needs...well, of course, ME!! Now I won't be tempted to pay outrageous (ridiculous!) prices on evilbay!!

Check back, I should be able to load some more pics soon!!!

York Peppermint Pattie Ornaments

So I saw these little buggers on SCS and I had to make some. I decided to make mine into Christmas ornaments. I took a York Peppermint Pattie and used the scalloped and circle punches to make a front and back for them. Then I tied ribbon around them and voila....Christmas ornaments. I decorated the front and back the same so as not to have to worry about how to hang them or attach them to a package. Super fun and super fast to make. Give them a try!!
