i couldn't get any simplier than this... a little bit of color, with a whole lot of simplicity... told yah i had a hard time... the sentiment is from the Butterfly Wishes set available at TGF... and some punched butterflies kept this simple, clean and yet something i would definitely give to someone...

Sharing is Caring!!

OMGosh!! i can't believe i've been MIA since last wednesday!! wow, where did all my time go??? i guess with the stress of ALL the last minute clean up of the office and my mounds of paperwork for my leaving took almost the best of my energy... well, today starts my vacation!!! hooray!! about 7-8 months of vacation... and i'm excited yet worried on how much of it i can really take... LOL... but the house needs good cleaning attention, and crafting is waiting a piece of me too... so i think this mini vacay will be both relaxing and productive...

i haven't been so MIA from crafting the last few days, and i have some cards to share with you today... these were made for the TGF Cares Card Drive... it ends this week if you want to show some love and make some cards for kids at the Ronald McDonald house... all the deets are on the TGF blog....

i got to color some images while waiting around in the office for the equipment to be picked up... and during the nights, i've been putting the cards together...

well, DD#1 has waiver day today, which means no school for her... so we are doing one of our daily chores and cleaning her room!!! OMGoodness, the mess in there... LOL... i think my craft room is waaay messier though... hehe... Thanks for stopping by today!! hope you like what you see and come back to visit again!! take care until then!! HUGS!!!!

a little sweetness!

Hey it's Friday!!! hoooooooray!! i have so much mixed emotions today... today is the official last day the company has me in business... at 4pm, i unplug my comp and all the phones and most of my systems go down... it's really sad and i haven't thought of it much this week since it was super busy getting out all the pending stuff and shipping piles of boxes to the other office in Oahu... i'm really going to feel it today, since i'm the only one left... the last advisor resigned as of yesterday and now it's only little ol' me... since most of the clean up is already done, next week should fly right by... i'm on the clock up until next Friday before i finally say Aloha to the office... but on top of it all, i'm really looking forward to the time off... and thank you all for your wonderful words of encouragement and support on my last post about this... you can only look at the brighter side of the path, somethings can just never change... but like i've said, it's for the better, never for the worst... and i truly believe that... so thanks for sticking with me through the ups and downs of life and hope that i'll be back more often with creations since i'll have a little more time...

speaking of creations.... look at this beautiful card i received in the mail....
this is created by Denise... my OCS partner for the month of April.... didn't she do a wonderful job on this beauty?!?! her LO is wonderful and i LOVE the embellies on here... the coloring is gorgeous too... Thank you Denise for sending this sweetness my way!!!

Teri is the hostess of this OCS fun!!! and she has done such a fabulous job prepping partners and helping with new friendships... these things take lots of time to prep and with her joyful soul, she has put mountains of time into it... well, Teri has decided to step down from this responsibility as of this last OCS... she will now be a player versus the hostess!! Teri, i wish you all the best in your new adventures and thank you deeply for all your effort and love you put into this success!! visit her blog to read up on this anouncement and to see who will reign in her seat... i'm sure you'll recognize the faces and i hope you will still support and be a part of the OCS... go now as May sign ups are well underway....

alright.... time for me to get moving... i really wanna curl up in bed and go back to sleep... maybe i can do that over the weekend!! hehe!! thanks for visiting today!! it means a lot when i can share with you... check back soon for more creations i need to share... and as always, have a wonderful day!!!

LOL, oops, did i bring the rain?! haha! anyway, this cutie is WS Rain Rain, a digi from TGF... i couldn't wait to play with her... she is soooo CUTE... at first, i looked at her and thought blues and yellows... but then, i wnated to donate this card to the TGF Cares Card Drive and had to think of something else... then i saw this strawberry DP in my stash and knew this is what i was going to create... voila! it's raining sweetness all around her... i used rhinestones for her coat buttons too... then i punched out some hearts and some flowers... cut the flowers in half and glued it on to the hearts to make it look like strawberries... with a little dab of stickles, i added the little seeds to the berries too... do you like???

Soft Spring Blues...

Happy Tuesday!! although i haven't been posting as much as i would like, i'm still around and spying on your fabulous creations... hope you haven't forgotton about me yet.. hehe... life's journey has been a little hectic and stress has one last test for me this week.... besides DD#2 catching a little cold, busy with motherly duties, and trying to find time for me, this is the LAST week my office is fully operational... as of Friday afternoon, i lock the doors for the last time and take our company sign down... sweet and bitter misery with some sadness, BUT i'm so ready for a little vacay... the week has been dreadful so far (and it's only Tuesday) with last minute preparations and packing up of files... i had to ask myself, "why me?!" i'll still be behind the doors next week for the pickups and shipments of the big equipment but as of the 23rd, i'm free and clear for the work life a bit... i am definitely excited for some time off... means i'll have more time to CREATE! i hope! LOL...

well, wanted to share with you this easel card that i made and one that i will be donating to the TGF Cares Card Drive... if you didn't already read the deets on this, i highly recommend you go and check it out... it is a contest, but for those that would just like to donate a few cards, i'm so super sure it will put a smile on a child's face!! that's my main goal for this one... so on this card, i used TGF's Izzy from the Twinkle Tots line... and she's standing in the wind 'Thinking of you'... i love easel cards and try to make them whenever i can... just a short post today... wanted to say that i am still roaming blogland and crafting when i can... was doing a bit last night watching the movie Beaches... i had to stop my creation because i was crying like a baby... hubby sat there just shaking his head... it's such a sweet story and one that i can watch over and over... i think with this pregnancy, my hormones are so whacked, i cry with every movie i watch these days... but yah, maybe it's just crazy me... LOL... okie dokie... i lost track of time and need to get moving for work... ugh, the dread... haha! come back tomorrow for some DT posts... see you then!! and thanks for stopping by today!! Have a HAPPY day!!!! i'll try... =D

Sharing some TGF cards...

Happy, of the happiest Fridays!!! TGIF!!! wow, this week was a whirlwind at work... i feel like i've aged another 5 years in just 2 days... i didn't know whether i wanted to scream or cry... LOL... i'm looking forward to the weekend, spending time with th DH and DDs and not having to worry about the mess that is in the office.... i hope!

anyway, i have a couple of creations to share with you today... this one below is a card i made for last week's FFF challenge at TGF.... wow, i haven't played that in a looooong time... it feels so good to be getting back into the swing of things... atleast for now i say....

i used Cheeky Shooter for this card as she was perfect with the cowboy papers i had stashed away... i really liked this sketch and have it save in my to-do again pile... LOL....

i love this cutie on this card!! the OA happy days set is so much fun to play with and color... these cuties are just so darn CUTE!!! released and created by TGF, but i got this one from Tamiko's... part of some goodies that i purchased from the online store with my GC from my sweet GF Michelle... Thanks Michelle!!! i was waiting to get this set!!! and Joy over at Tamiko's is a great seller and provides awesome customer service... go and check her store out!!!

March OCS and more lovely BRAKs

It's Monday!!! and boy am i super tired from all the excitement and thrills yesterday! it was a long day indeed and i was falling asleep by 9pm after all the clean up and motherly duties... i think another day of sleep would do me justice... LOL... Hope you all had a WONDERFUL Easter!!! Thank you to all that sent Easter wishes our way... please know that we think of all of you often and keep you near and dear to our hearts...

my sharings here are long overdue... so let's check out these goodies today...

Teri is the hostess of this awesome card swap that she calls "one card swap (OCS)" every month... she pairs the players up with different crafters each month and we trade card... it brings new ideas and new friends and it's all about having fun... check out her blog often as she has the open calls each month for the next month's pairing... and hey, if you're already a player, isn't it just fabulous?!
my partner for the month of March was Enjoli.... when i saw that i was paired with her, i told myself, Oh no what am i going to make for her?? check out her blog... her creations are beautiful and detailed... i was super nervous to be swapping with her... she sent me this beautiful Easter tent card!! isn't she lovely?!? love the spring colors... we also found out that we have a lot more in common than we think... and the number one, we both LOVE TGF stamps!! Thank you Enjoli for this wonderful card!!!
Enjoli also sent over this cute cute BRAK... OMGosh, it's so cute!!! look at Mommy Anya... doesn't she look fabulous?!
here's a side view.... she used this cute mailbox and decorated it for the perfect gift giving idea... on the flag she put Mommy with some hanging charms....
these are the goodies that were waiting in the mailbox... ribbon, glitters, stickles, clear stars and 2 lovely CC Design stamps... i just LOVE those pixies... Thank you soooo much Enjoli for your kind birthday gift!!! Love it all!!
my dear friend, Berenice, whom i met in the beginning of my blogging journey, sent this lovely BRAK all the wat from Mexico City! she knows i LOVE HK and sent me this booklet of stickers... and all these goodies... and that cute altered card you see pictured is full of sparkle and shine... it's beautiful! she also sent some postcards of the city, which i have hanigng on my cork board... would love to come and visit you someday GF!! Thank you very much for my wonderful birthday gift!!!

Thank you Colleen for all the greatness you've sent my way!!!

well, my craft room is still a mess... the weekend flew by so fast, i didn't really have time to clean up... so i still have things here and there and a load of Easter extras lying around from the last minute putting baskets together... i've been avoiding stepping foot in there... seeing the mess makes me feel even more tired... LOL... but it has to be done... and soon! Thanks for always coming by and spending a few moments reading my sharings and ramblings... i hope you enjoy your time here... will be back soon with some cards... yes, i made some... LOL! Have a fabulous day and a fantastic week!!!

Happy Easter!!!!

Wishing you all a very, very HAPPY EASTER!!!! from my family to yours!!

and since it's Easter, i'll share with you some easy packaging i did for DD#1's hula sisters, classmates, teacher and A+ leader...
Got a hold of some solid chocolate bunnies from Walmart for a $1... an simple an easy treat for DD#1's hula sisters... had some bunny bags, so i wrapped the box in them for an easy Easter theme... complete with little tags and the sentiment "Happy Easter Honey Bunny!" from Dandelion Designs....

remember the bunnie and carrots that i showed you last week?! same thing here... wrapped it up in the bunny bags for easy giving!! DD#1 said these were a hit in her class...

and here i just loaded a bag with assorted candies for her afterschool program leader and his staff... and then i used a plastic pot holder and filled it with yummies for her teacher... kept it simple this year...

well, i wish you all the sweetness in the world with joyous moments and happy family time!! See you later!

Washcloth Bunny Tutorial

Wooohooo!!! my weekend begins at 4pm today.... oh my i can't wait... LOL... i'm not even ready for Easter yet... i still have to put a few baskets together... and finish up some crafty things to get out... but i had some questions on my washcloth bunnies so i took some pictures of how to put one together... bare with me, my pictures aren't the greatest...

start off with your needed supplies... washcloths, pom poms for the nose and tail, googly eyes, mini rubberbands and ribbon if you like...

layout the washcloth so it forms a somewhat square...

starting at one end, roll beginning at the edge to about the middle of the cloth...

proceed the same on the other end... both ends should meet in the middle...

then, fold together so it becomes one strip....

fold in half like this creating a loop at one end... the loop will be your bunny body...

about a 1/4 from your loose ends is where you are going to form the head and ears...

pinch the middle and fold up towards the body....

secure with the rubber band... it will look like this... now you can adjust the ears to have them point up and so forth... by using clear rubberbands, you don't have to add ribbon if you prefer not to, but if you want some color, why not...

this time i used a low temp glue gun to securely add the eyes, nose and tail... i've also used 2 way tape in the past which is a bit easier to take off the elements.... you know, for those unexpected times you need a washcloth...

do this a few times and you'll have a whole bunch of bunnies hoping around... you can add whatever will fit in the little pocket area like this... because it's Easter, i used plastic Easter eggs... these make quick cute gifts or even favors... it doesn't have to be for Easter... they make great baby shower gifts/favors, or introductions for that special new bundle of joy... maybe even a spring themed wedding.... hey, if you're gonna try this out, definitely send me a link to your creations... i would LOVE to see what you make of these cute bunnies!!! Thanks for coming by today... i'll be back with more BRAKs and some easy Easter treats....
