"What's New?"

Hi Everyone!

Wow, can you believe that fall is here.  Yikes  I am not looking forward to the time change.   I hate going to and from work in the dark...wah waah and double waaaaah.  Ok no more whining from me.

I got a some new Tim Holtz embossing folders so I just had to make this card to try it out.  I thought it would be a perfect match for  Stitchy's "Steampunk Sally" digi.    I love the new embossing folder.  It looks so much better in person, it's kind of hard to see the gorgeous embossing on the black cardstock.

This is just a quickie post, I used all my favorite tools, played a little with my Copics...attempted make-up...practice makes perfect right.  I think it just adds to the Steampunk look...lol  She will go to one of my friends.

I am entering my card into the following challenges: 

• Anything Goes Die Cuts/punches
• Crafts & Me Use a Digi
• Crafty Cardmakers Anything Goes
• Craft Your Passion Anything Goes/Ribbon

WOYWW 122

Hi Everyone!

It's WOYWW time over at the Stamping Ground.  Check out Julia's blog and join in the fun.  I have been having some issues with blogger and commenting...yikes.  I have cleaned out my cookies and still can only comment on about 50% of the blogs I visit.  I am hoping it's just another glitch in blogger.

Anyhow here's my desk this morning, it's 1 AM and this is what I will wake up to.  As you can see I have been using my Grand Calibur.  I love it!  I am still making Halloween Cards...

I can't wait to go on blog-about and see what's on your work desk!  Thanks for stopping by, bunches of hugs

OMG!

Hi Everyone,

This week I got to use one of the Kelley Kid's digis called "Abby & Gabby Sisters 2".  I just had to use this one as they remind me of my grand daughters Maddie & Gracie...lol  You can find this cutie at Stitchy Bear Digital Stamps.

An age difference of 4 years definitely makes for loads of OMG! moments.  I am not sure who will get this card, one of the sisters or my daughter Jamie their mom...haha

Happy Haunting Treat Bag

Hi Everyone!

I am so excited about this project.  Don't you just love this little Treasure Chest.  Our theme at Simply Create is to use "Something Older than 6 Months".  Everything except the DP  including my tools is over 6 months old. 

All of my embellishments, tags, MS punches are over a year old.  The Happy Haunting Stamp I scored at a garage sale over 2 years ago.  Thanks Lorraine for teaching us how to make these at our last crop and providing the yummy DP!

I love my MS Spiderweb punches!  I embossed the base of my treasure chest with my Spiderweb embossing folder.  Distressed the tag with really old ink..  I added eyelets and ribbon to the handles and sides to make sure the card stock doesn't tear.  The box is closed with Velcro dots.

I am entering my little treasure chest into the following Challenges:

• Art Impressions Get Ready or Halloween
• Crafty Ribbons Boo-tiful Halloween
• Creative Stamp Friends Anything but a Card
• HSI Use Ribbon/and or Tag
• Inky Impressions Die Cuts or Punches
• KB Halloween
• Little Darlings Fall/Halloween

Hope to see you all join in the fun at Simply Create!

What's on Your Workdesk? Wednesday 121

Hi Everyone!

Yikes, I have been on blog-about and have been unable to post a majority of my comments!  I will be going round later...hopefully it will be fixed by then.

It's WOYWW time over at the Stamping Ground.  My workspace this week does look a bit better.  I did manage to clean it up some. 

I have been playing with my little sewing machine.  I have had it for more than a year and decided it was high time I learned how to use it...lol

Thank goodness for You Tube Videos!  Now I just need to figure out how to make nice circles and ovals...yikes.

Can't wait to go on blog-about and see whats on everyone's work desk.  Thanks for stopping by, bunches of hugs

Girls Just Wanna Have Fun!

Hi Everyone!

Ok, no laughing...I finally busted out my little Jenome Mini sewing machine.  It's been sitting in the box for over a year!  Yikes I even had to find tutorials on You Tube since I am clueless when it comes to sewing...lol 

Three tutorials later and I am sewing on cards. Don't look to close or you might get dizzy, my lines are far from straight. I couldn't bring myself to throw away my not sew perfect pieces so they are on my card...lol 

It's Sunday and time for our new challenge at OSAAT,  the theme this week is "Favorites".  I got to use a Barbara Jensen digi called "Shy Girl".   She will be available in the store as soon as all the creators finish uploading all their digis to the new and improved StitchyBear Digital Stamps.

I used all my favorite tools and goodies to create my Tri Shutter card.  My most favorite things when I create are my Copics and my Cuttlebug.  I love, love my Copics and it just wouldn't be one of mine if it didn't have some sort of Nestie or embossing on it.  I love to use my punches to create my own flowers too. 

When I return from Girl Scout Camp with Maddie I will enter my card into the following challenges:

•  Addicted to Stamps Stitching
• Designed2Delight Die Cut Diva
• Di's Digis Make your own Flowers
• Fussy & Fancy Try New Technique-sewing
• My Sheri Crafts Sew Simple
• Paper Sundaes Anything Goes
• Pile it On Fancy Fold
• Sew Many Challenges Ovals
• Sentimental Sundays Out of Comfort Zone-Sewing
• The Crafty Pad Stitching

Hope you can join in the fun at OSAAT, our Random winner will get 3 digis from Digis With Attitude.
