Well I have been making a few changes to my style of crafting and as much as I love making my cards using Magnolia stamp, Kraftin' Kimmie images, or my favorite Saturated Canary stamps; I decided it is time for new adventure. I am sure some of you are thinking "having a new baby isn't enough" lol but truth be told, I want to really start experimenting with something else. I love seeing all the creative people out there and their creative projects so I can finally tell you I joined a new wonderful team that will help me further my creative expression!

Well today like I said a series of cards that I threw together last night. I mean threw together!

For my second card I used a frame from the Delicate Frames and Ornaments Set. The papers are from Glitz Designs and the butterfly die is from Cheerlynn.

 The last two cards were created using pieces from Butterflies and Dragonflies set, sentiments from Sparkle n Sprinkle's stamp set 467 Nature and Glitz Design papers.

Well the weekend is here. YES, YAY, HIP HIP HOORAY!

Well this past week has been a bit of a rough one for me. I barely got any DT work done trying to get my milk supply back up( I have a missing appetite and don't get much sleep). For those of you who are new to my blog I am a mommy of two now. 

My son was born the day after Thanksgiving in an emergency c section kind of way ( I was due on the 27th for a c section delivery anyway, but he was a little squished and his cord was wrapped around a couple times trying to kill him when I laid on my back - my most comfy position)!!! My daughter is 3 (born on Halloween = really special) caused such an uproar this week pushing this momma to her limits. Yes I even looked in to schools for children where you send them away and they come back amazing perfect little angels - that didn't pan out to well for me. Then I started having some really bad pains in a tooth and ended up going to the dentist... well this pregnancy and all my throwing up, and lack of vitamins, extreme diet measures to maintain my health ruined my teeth again just like with Adyson... well found out I need over $4000 worth of work and the tooth that was bothering me turned out to be a .....duh duh duh.... ROOT CANAL!!!! Some fillings I have need to be readdressed and covered with crowns as just the fillings didn't work which leads up to one expensive mouth. If I could ever have one wish screw world piece and give me some perfect teeth! But enough about me....

Let me share something new... It is a chipboard clipboard from Gina's Designs. 

I am using this card for a special post for 

Sin City Scraps is a scrapbook and stamp supply store here in Vegas. They carry a wonderful variety of crafty yumminess and hold crafting meet-ups that are FREE!!!!

So I am sharing a card I recently made. I really wanted to try out my wood coloring skills. I still and not 100% about it but I think it looks okay. Sin City Scraps wanted me to share a stamping technique. I wish I had something special to really share about stamping. I thought about watercolor stamping or water stamping too however couldn't find my watercolor paper.
