Reply problems :(

Hi all...I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend. I have been trying to fix the reply link on my comments but have been unsuccessful!  I don't know if you guys have this problem but I noticed that almost everyone's blog, but mine!, has a "reply" link directly below each comment left. Which makes it easy to respond to a comment. My blog is lacking in that department! and I cant seem to find the "fix"  I need.  I REALLY do appreicate all the comments made and want to full heartedly respond, but sometimes I dont have an email address and other times when I follow the name  there is no blog info for me to visit!  If anyone can assist me with this I would be soooo greatful and might even throw in a lil HAPPY gift!! Im THAT desperate to fix this problem! lol
Thank you so much for stopping by and hope you all have a blessed Sunday!

TGIF! Stamped project time!

Hi...seems Fridays are getting a here a whole lot faster now that I have to post a stamped project! lol I am sure having fun with these stamps though. For this project I chose to make a  -Thank You -  card using the "Medium Sunflower" stamp from IBFS.  I colored it with copic markers and filled in each petal with Glossy Accents, and tons of Diamond Stickles for loads of sparkle.  Lots of dimension in this card and ya' know me, had to use my decorative dies.  I just think they make everything look so purdy!  

Ok well here its...What you think???

I used the Medium Sunflower stamp Item#441

If your interested in this stamp or any other from IBFS don't forget to use my code

I Brake for Stamps every Friday!

HI! As the title says, at least for the next six months - every Friday I will be featuring a stamp from IBrakeForSamps!  They have an awesome stamp selection and if you use my code (hint hint) SAVE10ELSA you'll get 10% off your total order! So if your like so many others that stand and stares at  rubber wondering "How can I use this stamp?" come visit me on Fridays for a lil sample on how I use my stamps. For further inspiration visit the rest of the design team members, Robyn, Jane and Cheryl.

This card started out small but ended up being a whopping 7x6 card! wow huh? I love it, Im in the process of creating the envelope, I know exactly who this card is for! I used the "Vintage Hats" stamp, one of my favorite nestability die and to border the bottom of the page, some Wild Orchid Craft rosettes, (also found at IBrakeforStamps.com) I added just a hint of color, some teal and of course, it wouldn't be my project without stickles!!!  So...what you think? 

Thanks for stopping by!! and as always....

Come and Scavenger Hunt with the Pride

Hi my ladies! I hope everyone is all geared up for Valentines.  I have been watching vid on youtube and OH MY everyone is so talented, the projects are just beautiful...Here is my take on a simple little card for Valentines. I wanted to share this files with you! This card is made up 5 layers...I made this files and shared them with the PRIDE.  Well being the nice linoness that we are, we each will give you a file. But you have to hunt for it. Use your inner lion and find all 5 pieces.  There is only one challenge you will have to fulfill in order to get all the files needed to complete this card and that is...You must comment on the lioness blog on the day you find the file and leave your email  address. Very important LEAVE your email address with your comment (the 7th is the last day to comment) between the 8th and 9th the Pride will email you the .svg file for you to cut on your MTC or any other cutting software you use...thats it! 1. comment on the day you find the .svg file, 2. leave your email 3. the 7th is the last day to claim the file.  fun? you guys feel like hunting?? I hope so!!
My first project is using 4 of the svg layers...i didnt use the word file, which is LOVE.

 And since it starts in my den you get to comment now and you will get the first file,which is the Base to make the card...now you need layer 2, 3 , 4 and the word Love...happy hunting!

Once you get the files you will be able to size them and use them any way you chose! Enjoy

On this second card I used only the .svg layer 3 and layer 4 and used them on an easel card. I also used my Martha Stewart die cut punches! It measures 6x6 and I know exactly who Im giving this to! 

I hope you ladies will go on the prowl with us and scavenge out all these cut files! Each member of JAFF will have a different file but on what day? May the hunting begin!!  (purrrrr)

Here is a list of my gals...

next on the prowl is Krystal over at KrystalsNight

Hello ladies, welcome back to my den. The Pride has been busy shredding paper, playing with glitter and hearts to get projects ready for our February Valentine mini hop.  And also today, Feb 1st marks the beginning of my Birthday Month!! yay!!  To start off the lionesses are ready to share with you our first assigned project. We did a Color Project, so they will each have some pink/red and flowers!  Here is mine...

I chose to make some Valentine gift card holders One for each of my girls. I will have a tutorial on these soon (my webcam died :( so it might be a few days...a moment of silence please....  ..... ..... .... ok enuff lol )  I used my hand made flowers and loads of stickles and Bazzil papers. If your a newbie, and haven't used stickles you must!! It makes everything looks soo pretty and shiny!!

We will be posting in 2 day intervals, with our Scavenger Hunt starting on the 5th.  The Pride wants as many of you to hunt with us! We will show you what to hunt for - hope you will join us in our little game.
