SC148 happy snow men

I needed some happy colors today I have cone to the third part of wanting this baby out of me and I still have over a month to go!!! So when I saw the SC I new just what I wanted to do. most of the time I have it done a lot sooner than now but man I just could not wake up today I also could not sleep with 2 other toddlers running around so I was a snail getting it done!!! I am pleased with how it turned out and I am kind of happy it took as long as it did it is so much fun to see just how many embellishment I can put on one card!!!!


You can't really see the Ric rack but is is what separates The middle DP there is also ribbon and silver cord through the eyelets. The little gem stone photo corners have been one of my faves and I could not call this card done till it said something christmasy!!

Thanks for looking!!!

CC138 a boy's birthday card



well it is kind of a bla layout but with such a big image I kind of blanked out so this is what I came up with. I think I should have st oped and not put brads on.

things I really do like are the water coloring my fav way to bring an image to life. I also like the BG stamp I have many of them and never use them till a few days ago. I could not get them to stamp evenly and them it hit me place it on the stamp upside-down and brayer it now I really like the BG stamps!!! I now have a list of new one's that I want.

Thank you for stopping by and don't forget that after the first I am going to post my first blog CANDY!!!! I can't wait!!!

I pulled out the pretty stones for this one added some gold cord and ribbon and my way cool flowers!!! I have to keep this short today my house is close to being declared a deserter zone so I best get to cleaning before FIMA and the US army show up with relief!!!

Edit:

This is an add on from this morning. I just had to make one more card for today's SC!! Most of the time I only make a second, because I did not like the first one... not the case here, I just really liked the layout. I had some time on my hands after I cleaned the house. The kids have been up from there nap for an hour now, so the house not so clean anymore!!!

Who's Getting Married



there is so much on this card it might just cost my first born to mail it. Okay it is not that heavy but there is a lot on it I just could not stop!!! I got all the flowers and stamps from papertreyink

and I don't think that I will quit playing with them any time soon. I do not know anybody that is getting married but I had to make a wedding card just for the heck of it!!! I used the new basic gray textured paper pale and perfect plum, and shimmery white! pale and perfect plum and mellow moss for the ink! I also used a lot of ribbon flowers brads and a few punches!!! I will be the first to say that I am quite pleased with how it turned out!!!

this is the veiw from the back thank you for stopping by!!!


New Stamps And A Swap!!!

this card just started out with the BG paper I just wanted to play and see how well my new stamps stamped out, because to me paper tray stamps felt different than other clear stamps! I also thought that they stamped out better than other clear stamps. so I just grabbed any-ole color off of my shelf and and I prepped and inked them up I had not real intentions of making a card last night I think if I had I would not have picked the colors that I did. I am so happy this happened by accident I think things turn out so much better when you don't over think them!!!

the colors used are summer sun garden green and shimmery white with a touch of pomegranate, like I said just playing but I think they all kind of went together well!!!

this is a picture of the back. I am so telling you that when I said I did not sit down to make a card I really didn't and this is the first card that I have finished in a really long time front back and inside are all done and it only took about a half an hour!!!

this is not a very good picture of this card and I am not sure this is the card I want to use for my swap, I do know that if I do use it that I will not put the glitter glue dots on it they don't match and they took WAY to long to dry!! All of the stamping is done in VM and heat embossed in gold on shimmery white and pomegranate and tied off with ribbon!
TFL!!!!

LSC138

OMGosh I think I like this card it has been about three cards not and I have not liked any of the but I do like this one!!! I think it is purty!!!all of the images are stamped in bordering blue and the clear embossed with EP and a touch of dazzling diamonds!!!I used shimmery white river rock and bordering blue textured card stock! I used my corner rounder for the decorative edge and the photo corner for my cheat on the bottom I just thought that this card would look good with a little extra. and last is the old world DP and my fave basic gray ribbon!!! TFL


Now I want to show you how cute my little man is getting he just looks like the cool football player in this picture!!!!

What a little stud!!!!

I just want to cry and WT136


Please don't get me wrong I love all three of these beautiful babies, but when they have all been sick off and on for the past month....... I am at the end of my rope!!!!! For real if I have the clean up any more body dropping from one end or the other from any of my kids and that will be it, I will brake down and just cry!

I am so frustrated that I cant even do the SCS challenges and have them turn out the way I want them to!!! I did WT136 and I am so not happy with it I wanted to make something that looked like a drift wood frame and what was in my head just did not come out on paper.


I think Jasmine will be well enough to go back to school tomorrow and Henry and Ava will Finlay get to go to play group so maybe I can make a card while calm and not so tense!!! here is the card that I did today please tell me what you think

I used shore thing and canvas for the stamps real red and night of navy and WW for the paper and basic gray and river rock for the ink and finished it off the ribbon and mulch from the park for the drift wood look!!!

One last thing my baby sis just became a SU demo and has posted her first card over on her blog (the little stuff) http://beckyo1984.blogspot.com/ so please stop by and give her some kink words she is doing a killer job for just starting out!!!! TFL
