Baby Girl Layout...

Hi all, well, the scrap studio is almost done. Lots of work, didn't realize I had soooo much stuff! I've decluttered alot though, thrown things out, took shelves out and brought other pcs of furniture in.
I have been so busy getting organized I have neglected my little blog here. But last night I cleared me an area and designed this cute little girl layout. It can be used to safekeep your first month old daughter's picture or her first year!
Hope you like it.



Thanks for stopping by!

New Item plus a great site to visit...

Where has the time gone? I've been slacking I know, but the weather has been soooo beautiful outside it's hard to stay indoors and be creative.  I have also been hard at work in my studio. It's a mess right now, but it's going to be sooo awsome when I get done, even though right now, I wonder why I took on the added task!  I have completely moved everything around, that was the easy part, putting everything back is what is taking so time.
Anyway, I wanted to share a couple of things with you.
1st, for those of you who buy and use Copic markers, your gonna LOVE this site. (Those markers are so frikken awsome, but sooo frikken expensive!) On this site you can find them for only $3.98!!! WOW! I am placing my order tonight!! Click here:

2nd, I wanna share this cute bear in the box title block I made last week, before my studio went under construction.

 
Leave me a comment, would love to hear from you :)
Have a Blessed Sunday

Coloring, back to child like years...

Who would of guessed that after decades, coloring return to be my greatest pass time ever. As a child I would spent endless hours coloring. I has happy with an 8 pc crayola box  and a coloring book. Now the toys are a little more expensive, *cough* copics, but none the less the enjoyment is still the same.  I took art in high school and loved it but I had not drawn anything in years, I doodle a lot, but never thought I could make items that would actually sell. 
I have been busy drawing and this little fellow is one of my doodles.  I will have them up as digi stamps as soon as I figure out how to do the whole instant download things.  I am also turning him into an .svg file, you know, so I can mass produce him. I think Im calling him Fernando. :) ( Geez, I hope you all like him as much as I do and your not thinking Im crazy or anything! lol I really aint...crazy that is...lol) I think Im gonna put him on a scrapbook layout later.

One other thing, I used Glossy Accents as if it were free!
 I love that stuff, it should be
sold by the gallon...
it if dosen't move, Im gonna Glossy it...can you see it all over this baby?
 

Thanks so much for stopping...
 Have a Great remainder of the week!!

Sunday at the beach, we are truly Blessed.

My daughter, Brandi and I spent a peaceful day at the beach, it was calm and relaxing.  The weather was perfect, not too hot, but it's just a matter time before the heat over powers us! lol (Living in humiditi-ville and all!) But I wouldn't move anywhere else, I totally love it here.

Anyway I've just had the best time blogg hopping this past week, so many bloggs so little time! Everyone around has such wonderful and beautiful Bloggs!! Plus the talent you ladies have, is truly humbling! 

I made this card last night using a new set of cat stamps I just bought last week. And I colored the cat using copics! I am totally new to copics and oh let me tell you I am sooo very hooked...I MUST own every color now! My husband thinks I've lost my mind and reverted back to my kindergarten years! lol


 
Thanks so much for visiting!!! Leave me a comment I love to hear from you all.

God Bless --- Huggs  Elsa

Nests and Butterflies!

Hello all, its 6:51am, and I still haven't been to bed! Been so busy I lost complete track of time!
It looks like it's going to be a pretty day out, I hope I don't spend it in bed trying to play catch up with my sleep! Just hate it when I do that.  Me and the coffee pot are gonna be best chums today.  Thankfully I made a trip to Loxley Alabama last weekend and stocked up on flavored coffees, Carmel Kisses, sweet necter of life,  here I come!! yum.

It's my first attempt at Copic markers and WOW am I every so happy I found those!

Now for the card, I it made it using a beautiful birds nest and butterfly stamp, (don't know who the maker is, I've had this stamp for a while).  I colored it in with copic markers and used my big shot to emboss paper. I have also discovered Glossy Accents!!! and boy am I excited to use that little bottle...they should sell it by the gallon! I have been putting that stuff on anything and everything that will stand still!! There is lots of that on this card, on the butterfly on the 4 little eggs, the flowers surrounding the nest and on the die cut leaves. I also used Stickles to add a glittery feel.  (I'm a piscen, so Im attracted to shiny and glittery  things!)  When you run your fingers across this card you can feel all the different textures...ooooooolala, too cute! (well at least I think it is...I have to give myself kuddos sometimes! Keeps me awake! lol)

Ok...thanks for visting...HUGGS! :)
