Back again

Hello.  I am back again.  I am working on cleaning off my desk. 

This card has been sitting on it, waiting on me to make the post so I can send it to my son.  I am not good at coloring dogs but I like to make one from time to time to send to my son.  I left this one white with some gray shading.  The stamp is part of the Tim Holtz/Sizzix Dog Talk Set.  It is such a cute set.  I really need to use it more often.

The paper is a digital  paper from Happy Heart Studio from Etsy.  I just love her paper.  It is so affordable and prints great.

I am using it in the following challenges:
   Craft Challenge - Anything Goes
   Crafty Sentiments - Anything Goes
   Aud Sentiments - Anything Goes + Sentiment
   Crafty Creations - Anything Goes

Off to see what else I can find on my desk and craft table.  Chat with you later.

Friday

Hello and Happy Friday.  I am still trying to get over my cold and sinus infection but I am determined to get a few things done today.  On the top of my list is getting my desk and craft table cleaned off.  It doing that I will probably get a list of other things I want to do but I have got to start somewhere.

My sister called the other night and wanted to make something.  She hadn't made any St. Patrick's Day cards so we decided one this corner box card.   It is the first time, I have made a corner one and it came out pretty good.  You have to be careful when you glue the inside pieces together.  If you are off, the least little bit, it doesn't fold correctly.  Or at least that is what I think.





I am using it in the following challenges:
   Craft Challenge - Anything  Goes
   Crafty Sentiments - Anything Goes

Off to work on my desk.  Hopefully I will be back later  with something else.

St. Patrick's Day Elephant

Hello again.  As promised, here is another card for you.  I started this card last year but I never finished it.

I used a basic circle easel card.  I added the Edward St Pat Circle from Bugaboo.  I just love the Edward elephants from Bugaboo.








I am using it in the following challenges:
   Cut It Up - Anything Goes
   Aud Sentiments - Anything Goes + Sentiment
   Crafty Creations - Anything Goes
   Crafty Gals - Anything Goes

Off to relax before I head to bed.  Chat with you tomorrow.


Quilt Die Again

Hello.  I am still trying to get over a cold and I still need to clean off my table but I am getting there slowly but surely.

I made another card using the quilt die.  This one is a BCA card.  I just love making these cards.  I have several friends who look forward to getting one from time to time.

After putting the quilt pieces together, I added a gem in the middle.  I printed the sentiment and added the ribbon brad.

I am using this card in the following challenges:
   Simon Says Wednesday - Anything Goes
   Just Add Ink - Color Challenge
   Cute Card Thursday - Anything Goes

I am off to straighten the kitchen and get a shower.  I know it is late, but I would like to post one more card tonight.  Hopefully, I will make it.  So check back in a bit and see if I get it done.  Have a great evening.

Saturday Afternoon

Hello and How are all of you doing today?  I came down with a cold (or at least I hope it is a cold and not the flu) Thursday and I have felt awful.  So all of my craft time just didn't happen.  Oh well.

I made these cute little treat bags last weekend at my crop.  I put jelly beans in them.  They are now all ready for Easter morning.  I made six but I only needed 4 so I will have a couple of extras, in case I need a little treat.

I will chat at you later.  Have a good afternoon.

Friday Morning

Hello and Happy Friday.  It is early and I have no idea what the day will hold but I wanted to start off with a little something.


Last weekend, on my way out of town, I stopped at Hobby Lobby.  I wanted to make sure I didn't run out of tape for my tape runner so I stopped to get a refill.  On the way, to the adhesives, I saw these cute little boxes.  They were normally a dollar but they were 40% off so I just couldn't pass them up.  I picked up two blue ones and two pinks ones.





I thought they would be cute holding some Easter candy.  I cut out this cute bunny monogram and since they were so small I just stuck to first initials.  Too cute.

Have a great day and start to the weekend.  Chat with you later.

Spring time?

Hello and how are all of you?  Where did February go?  I can't believe today is March 1st.  I am ready for Spring.  It has rained most of the day, but about an half an hour ago, it started snowing.  Big huge flakes.  I can't believe that it is snowing.

Last weekend, I went to a crop with my craft buddies.  They all worked on their scrapbooks, but I took cards to work on.  I did pretty good.  I made three small albums, 6 Easter treat boxes, and 60 cards.  Plus I cut out a bunch of Hershey Kisses bottoms and some digital project life cards.  I also updated my March & April planner calendars.  So I feel like I had a productive weekend.  Plus I had so much fun.

I was tired when I got home and my sinus/allergies are acting up so I didn't spend a lot of time in my craft room this week.  I am hoping to have more time over the next few days.  This morning, when I got up, I decided to cut some thing quick.  I decided on these cute little bunny petal boxes.  Just too cute.  You can find the pattern here.





I am using it in the following challenges:
   Cupcake Inspiration - White
   Jo's Scrap Shack - Anything Goes
   Crafty Sentiments - Anything Goes

Chat with you later.  Have a great afternoon.
