Hello Friends, long time no see

So, as one of my News Years resolutions, I have decided to pick up on my Blog. I have been gone way too long and am so excited to start this new year on the right crafting foot. The main reason that I have neglected to be present on here is, my craft room is a huge mess and I feel so closed in that I cannot create as much as I want to. Well, That has also been one of my resolutions, to clean this place up. I am so much more productive in a organized space. It may take me a while to get there but I am on a mission to share all things paper crafts with all of you, My Friends! I will be back real soon with some challenges that I will be participating in. Stay tuned!!

Stay Tuned

Hello Crafty peeps, it has been a really long while since I have been here.  Coming back soon with some crafty fun. Come the new Year(2018) I will be more productive and sharing all things crafty. XOXO, Dannie

Less is more Challenge

Happy Sunday friends. I wanted to post another challenge card before I went to bed tonight. I think I am going to create  plenty more of this card for a craft fair that I am doing in November. Simple but oh so cute!!   Here is an easy card that I created for the challenge at  Less is more The challenge was to be 1 layer and 2 of something. These little guys are so cute with their googley eyes and bling red buttons. I also heat embossed them with "primary bark" WOW embossing powder. I sporadically added the red and green sequins. The stamp set I used is scentsational seasons by Stampin Up!  I hope you enjoy what I have created, Don't forget to let me know that you were here!! Have a great Monday everyone!! Repost, Here is one that I completed that is only 1 layer. Although I did heat emboss the gingerbread men.

I'm checkin in with a challenge

Hello everyone and Happy Friday to you all. I completed this challenge card from Mojo Monday on Tuesday but this is the first chance I have had to load it up and share it with you all. I love the colors on the card. I used a paper pad from Simple Stories, "Vintage Bliss" The colors are really summery(even though we are at the end of summer) I wanted to get one last summer card in! The "hi" is a wood embellishment that I colored using magicals from Lindy's stamp gang. Let me tell you, they are so sparkly and pigmented. I took a little scoop out of the little pot and added a drop or 2 of water and wow, So pretty! I then went over the piece with paper glaze. I added a little silver butterfly charm over to the right and attached it with the pink twine. I hope you enjoy my creation and hopefully, I will be back soon!!

Another Monday down...

Hello there everyone! Well, here it is, almost August. Please let time slow down just a bit.  We have had the most mild summer here in Nor Cal. I mean, the next few days we are supposed to get 100° days but we really haven't had too many of those this summer and I am OK with that. So, onto my challenge card. I played along with the sketch over at Mojo Monday and it was supposed to be tall and skinny so this is my tall and skinny 3 1/2 X 9 1/4 creation.   The paper I used is from Prima's Princess Collection.  The sentiment of from A Stampin Up! stamp set called Whimsical words. The flowers I punched out with one of my flower punches and I added some stickles around both of the flowers. I put this one together rather quickly and I am really happy with how it turned out. Go on over to Mojo Monday and check out all the other great creations that some really talented ladies came up with. Thanks for looking and don't forget to let me know that you were here. Have a w
