Santa ornament

Hi again it's time for my TTCRD DT project.  Anne Fenton is our sponsor this week and I've chosen her Santa image to work with.  I made an ornament using a Memory Box snowflake die. 

Hope you can join us this week at TTCRD's Anything Goes Challenge!

TTCRD Nice Crane Challenge

Hi all,
     Sorry my posts have been limited to my DT projects but I'll tell ya reality really bites sometimes!  Ugh that dreaded routine called work has been draining me of every ounce of energy I have!  It's pretty sad when you fall asleep with your 4 year old at 8:00 pm  LOL!  And my little guy is getting sick...sniffling, sneezing and whining...ahh motherhood  :)

Anyway, here's my Christmas tag for the challenge this week at Through The Craftroom Door and our sponsor is Nice Crane.  I chose a pre-colored vintage image. 

Hope you can join us this week for our Anything Goes challenge at TTCRD!

Thanks for stopping by!

Hugs,

A witchingly wonderful Halloween

Hi again!  Finally, a Halloween card!  It's time for my DT project for Through The Craftroom Door.  Our sponsor this week is The Paper Shelter and I've used the Bewitched Night image.  She was colored with Copics, Prismacolor pencils/Gamsol and chalks!  Plus I stippled over the chalk background with Encore Metallic Purple ink.  The sentiment was a freebie (but can now be purchased in her store) from Create with TLC.  Dies by Spellbinders and MFT.

Well that's it for today!  Stop by the TTCRD challenge blog for some wonderful inspiration!  Also, the Fall issue of Through the Craftroom Door magazine is now available.  I have several projects in this issue, if you would like to purchase a subscription go HERE.

Thanks for stopping by!

Favorite Little Pumpkin

Hi Everyone!
     I made this card for my daughter, Shianne, to mail from college to my mother AKA Grammy.  When I was pregnant with Shi we didn't know she was a "she" so my mother always referred to her as "pumpkin".  She'd ask "how's pumpkin today?" etc.  And my baby shower was a Halloween party and I dressed as...yup...a pumpkin!  A big round one!  LOL!  Anyway, this Sally character from Sassy Cheryl's Stamps always reminds me of Shi when she was little.  The sentiment is from Papertrey Ink's Spooky Sweets set.

This card is for the Through The Craftroom Door Anything Goes Challenge this week.  We are sponsored by Oozak and you could win a $10 gift certificate to the store.  

 

And "Sally" always has a little ladybug with her...something else about Shianne...she was always my little "lovebug".  I always made her ladybug t-shirts etc.  A nice little trip down Memory Lane!  LOL!!  Thanks for strolling with me!!

Hugs,
Kathi

You're how old?

Hi again!
     I'm here today with my DT card for the Through The Craftroom Door Anything Goes Challenge.  Our sponsor this week is SK Digi's and I've used the Mouse image.  When I first saw the image all I could think of was "You're how old?" because of the expression on his face.  So I created a thought bubble in Word and made him a her. 

I used Glossy Accents on the eyes, nose and mouth

Stop by the TTCRD challenge blog to see what the other talented ladies have come up with or even join our Anything Goes challenge!

Until next time!

Dainty butterfly

Hi again!  I'm here with my DT card for Through The Craftroom Door challenge blog.  Our sponsor this week is Oozak who sells tons of supplies and stamps.  He sells the Memory Box butterfly die which I've used on my card.  The paper looks black but it's really a pretty deep purple.  The patterned paper is by Maja Design which I won in that huge blog candy  :)

 I used some old beads and Swarovski Crystals for the body and added Jolee's Hotfix Crystals to the wings.  I always use Glossy Accents to adhere the crystals.

Hope you can join us this week at TTCRD where the challenges are always Anything Goes!
Hugs,
Kathi
