Avril's Birthday Card

     
I made this card  a couple of weeks ago for my dear friend Avril.  As I said before I got her the cuddlebug for her birthday and wanted to make a card using it.  The background is done with an embossing folder and the oval is one of my new nestabilities Oh boy do I love those things!!!!  They come in so many different sizes and shapes...squares, circles, rectangles, ovals, and I think hearts too!  I used the olive ribbon from the new mini...which is quite soft and of course I HAD to use Bloomin Beautiful!  '

Off to make her another little something...just to say thanks for being a great friend and letting Zain and I hang out at her house a lot....Chris works nights so it sometimes gets very lonely at home....she always takes us in ;)

UPDATE FOR CINDY!!!!! :)

Hello Friends :)  
As you can see from my title this update is for my wonderful upline Cindy ;)  She put on a wonderful event, SPRING FLING, for all SU demos today and while we were at lunch she asked me when I was going to update my blog...UGH I am so bad at this!  I really LOVE blogging I just need to find more time for it!  BUT because she did such a FAB job I just had to make her smile by updating my blog in her honor :)

As I mentioned I was at Spring Fling all day today...oh I had such a wonderful time!!!  I learned so much...Cindy I think we should have this every month hehehaha

Avril was the grand prize princess and here she is in her crown...she is so flipping cute....Cindy is right behind her :)

I made 4 make n takes today but one of them was 5 cards and a box...HOLY SMOKE that is so awesome...I have not finished that one yet so I don't have a picture of it...but I do have a picture of a couple of the others....

For this card we used 2 Carousel Notes with LIVE YOUR DREAM stamp set from the Occasions Mini.  We used the ribbon slide also from the mini....OH did I tell you I WON this at SPRING FLING....see don't you wish you were a demo?!?  Oh how did we color in the ribbon slide...I thought you would never ask....we  used crystal effect and re-inkers....how awesome is that?1? LOVE IT!!!  we also used the pick a petal classy brass template (thanks now I have to buy this) and Afternoon Tea designer paper (this is my favorite!!!)
For this project we again used the Live Your Dream stamp set...all we did was get 2 pieces of cardstock...fold them in half and made a book.  We bound it with chop sticks and ribbon....these girls are so talented!!!  I am a very lucky girl to be part of such a wonderful group!!!




When I got home I took the boyZ for a walk in the wagon...They were very excited!!  I am in love with this nice weather!!!!  I am soaking it up while it is here!
 
 


I hope you all have a wonderful Sunday!

Water Coloring!

Hi! 
I have, AGAIN, been having problems uploading my cards.  I guess it all depends on the time of day?  Well I got this wonderful set, BLOOMIN' BEAUTIFUL, and let me tell you it is very beautiful!!!!  I have never really played with water coloring but this is the perfect set to start with!!!  Both cards I used water color paper with aqua painters.  I love the results!!!!  If you have any questions on any of the cards please just send me a message!
I hope everyone is having a great weekend!  Zain is with my mom so Chris and I have been spending the day together, having a wonderful time!  We went to my dear friend Avril's birthday party this afternoon and spent a couple of hours with great company!  I got her the cuddlebug and I was soooo excited to give it to her and she was just as excited to receive it!  Tonight there is a boxing match on and Chris is having a couple of friends over.  I am going to work on a stationary set :)

See you soon!

What kind of class???

Hello everyone!
Here is a card that I did for the Tart and Tangy class I am planning.....but now I don't know if I want to have this class or a recipe box class.....oh man I don't know....maybe we should just do both ;)
I hope everyone enjoys their weekend!  I don't know how much stamping I am going to get done this weekend.  Zak is here and we have a bunch of errands to run tomorrow and then the boyZ are going out for awhile and I am having a Mary Kay party.  I am very excited....I am hoping I like the make up  (is this what people feel like when they are hosting their very first workshop?  I hope so!!)

Sunday will have to be laundry day UGH!!!!!!  Someone come help me!

Have a great one!!!!

I did a bow????

I did a bow?!?  What I cant tie bows!!!  Well last night I saw this card on SCS and I really wanted to make it!  I sat down and in no time I did a bow all by myself just like a big girl!  So I stamped the tart and tangy stamp (is it an orange or a lime?) in both the pumpkin pie and old olive....Which one do you like?


Tart and Tangy




Okay so as I mentioned before I am working on a Tart and Tangy class...This will be sometime next month.  So far here are some samples I have been playing with.  Now I am not sure which cards I am going to pick so if you have a favorite please let me know!!!!  I have CASED most of these cards from SCS or SS (stampers showcase for SU demos) but I did try to change them a little.

This first card came from SS today.  I remembered having a conversation with my friend KFS, redvelvetsneakers.blogspot.com , at the store about putting 5 circle punches behind a scollop circle punch and BOOM instant flower.  That is a great trick she discovered!  She has a great mini tutorial on her blog.  Well here is my version...which one do you like better?

I was going to post all of the cards tonight but I am getting sleepy and this won't let me do what I want it to do tonight :(  So I hope you enjoyed those 2 cards...they are pretty much the same which one do you like better?
