I'm back!!!

I realized recently that some of my friends, Crystal & Mary and I'm sure there are others, do not have a Facebook account. Therefore, they can not see the cards that I post.  

I will post a few things for the past months that I have made cards.

Here are the cards I made in January 2013.  Hope you enjoy them.

This is a Dustin Pike digi image;

These two, my Mother-In-Law bought me these pre-embossed cards.  All I had to do was sponge them with colors and layer them.

Here is another Dustin Pike digi image;

The next four are digi images from Paper Shelter, http://www.thepapershelter.com .  They have some terrific images.

I made this Whipper Snapper Moose for my nephew in law's birthday card.  His nickname is Moose.

The next two are a digi image I found online.  This is the close up of the peacock.  I used colored pencils to color it in.

Another digi image... cow cute!

And yes, another digi image.  

I hope you enjoyed them as much as I had making them!

April's January Stamp Club

I can't just say how much fun I have at stamp club. If you don't belong to a stamp club, please contact your demo and ask her if she has one that you can join. They are not only fun, you get to hang with your girlfriends, laugh, eat, drink and be VERY merry.

And if you live in the Baltimore, MD area, then contact April;

I love my demo!!!! She is not only a VERY good friend, but she is an awesome demo. Here is what we did at April's stamp club;

Thank you so much April!! These are beautiful and fabulous!!!

Snowflakes

FINALLY!!! I got to stamp a little. Well... actually nothing is stamped. This is using the Cricut Winter Lace cartridge. The saying is a digital stamp I printed. But I think it's pretty.

Feels great to finally make a card again!! Haven't made any in months, other than going to classes or swaps. WOOHOO!!!

Starting to get the Mojo back!

Well... I was looking around the computer last night and found this "digi". My friend Lynn, HATES digi's because people call them digital stamps, and they are not stamps, they are clipart.  But... I love the saying on here and couldn't resist sending this to two of my friends.

Whoops! Forgot Shawna's card!!!

I made this card last night for a friend... who is having knee surgery. This is my 2nd time using my nesties, and I love paisley. You can't see it very well, but the apricot paper has paisley from a texture plate, and the SU background paper has paisley, as does the bashful blue small paisly. I ran that and the pink through the SU daisy embossing folder. It's quite adorable.



And how could I forget Shawna's card?!?!? This is Changito hanging onto this fella's leg... I laugh every time I see this!!!! Great card Shawna!!!

Digi stamps are pretty nifty!

I absolutely love squirrels for some reason, and this is just sooo adorable. And can you believe this is a digi stamp? By who do you ask??? http://www.etsy.com/shop/digitalstampoasis?ga_search_query=digitalstampoasis&ga_search_type=seller_usernames Digital Oasis. And they have a sale on their stamps... check em out!

Another Dustin Pike card

Here is another Dustin Pike digi stamp card that I did. The bug in the background is from Betsy The Beekeeper (Stampin' Up!). I am going to send him along with the Dudley dragon cards for a swap I joined. Yup... took two spots, but I love Dustin Pike. (Thanks Jennifer K. for turning me onto him and digi stamps!).

Snowed in is great!

Being snowed in is a good thing and a bad thing. Good thing is, I am all warm and snuggly. Bad thing is, I had to shovel 1' of snow earlier and now it looks like I hadn't touched it at all. Another good thing is STAMPING!!! YEAH!!! LOVE to stamp and now I'm getting into "Digi Stamps".

I found on the cricut.com website under community, a gal that is hosting a "Dustin Pike" swap. http://dustinpike.blogspot.com/ . I ABSOLUTELY LOVE his artwork. If you are into cutsie and love fun things, this is the site to visit. So here is my card for the swap;

Close up of Dudley-ette; (I flocked the peep... so cute!)

Card in its entirety;

And Rich has a co-worker that is kinda freaky about aliens. So I found this digital art from http://www.talonartstamps.com/Alienspage7.html

Weekend to STAMP!!!! 10-24--09

Having sooo much fun and feelin' really guilty. Rich is tearing out the kitchen and has instructed me to stay out of his way. I was going to go to the ocean, but it was suppose to rain all weekend so I decided to stay home and lock myself in my stamp room.

Got alot done today... cleaned up the room, got a few Stampin' Up! sets together that I have just received (Autumn Harvest and Pocket Silhouettes), and made these cards.

This one is for the IWIA Stampers * Baltimore, MD * Christmas card shoebox swap, on Monday, October 26th. Saw this on SCS... so I can't take the credit. All I did was add the snowflake in the corner with the glitter. My contribution to stamping. HAHAHHA!!!


Then I made this one. Thinking of April's fall leaf card we had done like a wreath, I used that as my muse for this one.

And then there's this little fella. http://customcreationsbyjenn.blogspot.com/ My Friend Jennifer Kupiec has a wonderful blog and there is a Scrap, Stamp & Doodle challenge. Go to her website to see the challenge. This is the card I made. The image is a Dustin Pike digital art image. I LOVE his images!!!
