Happy Friday Friends, This week went by really fast and I am so glad it did. I have a craft fair to get ready for and it seems like during the week, I cant get the time in to get organized . So, I have about 200 Christmas cards that I want to complete and other misc. Christmas items, Like Reindeer food and little goodies like that. So, onto the card sketch, This one is from Mojo Monday and what a fun one it was. I just got this cool DSP and was wanting to put something together with it. It is MME "Breeze"  Pretty, huh?  What you see  below is I sprayed the yellow flag panel with radiant pearls for a little bit of shimmer. The sentiment is one of which I have in my stash. I heat embossed in black. You cant really see the shininess of it but it added some shiny to the creation. So, I am off to work on some Christmas stuff but I will return very soon! Have a great weekend all!

 Hello all. Well it is Sunday evening and it is time for this weekend to wind down. Why can't we have 2 day work weeks and 5 day weekends? Boy, wouldn't this world be a much happier place to live? I would even work 15 hrs each of those 2 days. Really, I would!  Anyways, I have another creation to share with you all. I created this one off of the above sketch from The sweet stop . What a fun sketch and what a fun card this one turned out to be? I think this is my new favorite stamp set from Stampin Up! "Gorgeous Grunge" is the name of it and it is so so much fun!!  All of the supplies that I used on this creation are from Stampin Up! The sentiment is from an old SU! set "Best Yet"   This creation is 5 1/2 X 4 1/4.Aren't the new "In colors great"? I used Strawberry slush and coastal cabana on this along with going grey,basic black and white. So, there you have it. What do you think? I would love to hear your comments!! I will be...

Hello Friends, I just wanted to post a quick post tonight on a HUGE Craft garage sale that is going on in San Ramon, Calif. This is the crafters dream garage sale and I am just biting my nails I am so excited about this sale.I am also selling at it so out with the old and in with the new. I was told that there would be aprox. 50 sellers. You see, we tag all of our gently used and /or new craft items with a code (that they assign us) and price and they sell it for us. It is so worth it! Last year I made a little over $100 for stuff that I was done with using or that I just wanted somethings different. I was an awesome deal! I dont miss it every year and if you live in Northern Calif, you wont want to miss it either. So, without further ado, the following is the info, . We've set the date for another USED CRAFTS SALE !                          ...

Hello friends, I have been away from my blog for a bit. I guess I have been a little busy but that is no excuse, lol! I was cruisin around blogger world and found this sweetness and just wanted to share with you all. It is over at Cuddlebug cuties . What a great blog.  and look at that candy, Saweet!!   Now, for a creation that I created for a challenge. It is from Mojo Monday and I have had it done for a few days but this is the first chance I have had to post it.  So, here is the sketch from Mojo Monday . Fun and pretty easy .    And here is the completed card. Pretty easy and really cute. I have to say, the cutest thing about this card is the decorated stick pins. I make them all the time but I never add them to my projects. I need to start using them. It's like with my paper, It is so darn pretty, I don't want to use it. Does anyone else have that problem? LOL! S, there you have it. I hope you enjoyed all the goodies that I had to share with yo...

So, below I have a card that I created for 2 challenges. The first one being Sweetest Thing blog . Isn't the little birdie so cute? Even though this was a single layer card, I still love it! I sometimes feel like, if I don't add 2 or 3 layers to a card, It looks nekkid(naked) but this one I really really love! The 2nd. challenge was to use Washi on a creation over at The "Simply less is more" Blog . Well, That was an easy one. I only have a gazallion rolls of Washi. So this was a really really fun project for me. You see, I do have a gazillion rolls of washi in every color and pattern imaginable and I really like the stuff but I never know when to use it. Does anyone else have that problem? I guess I need to find more challenges that include using Washi, LOL! So, with that being said, I have to go and get ready for the first day of school tomorrow, Booooo!!! This summer just flew by, Can it be July again? Ok, well have a great rest of the week and I will see you a...
