Wish Upon A Star

OK, here a card using the new booking set. Now that I look at it, I think I got the words out of order!! Or did I?? I also used the new "bitty brads". I must say I really like them, but beware don't knock the container by accident, they are very hard to find on the floor. (Wonder how I know that??)

Sneek Peek Birthday Cards

I have tons of stuff to do, but a box of new goodies showed up today, and well, I just had to make something.

When I first saw the May Word Puzzle stamp, I knew I had to have for this little pepper. I covered the darker red one with liquid glass, so it's shinny just like a real pepper!!

And then of course I liked the butterfly too. I stamped an extra image and cut it out to make the wings 3-D, plus I added some glitter.

Now don't you all just need this stamp set??

Dixie

Well, I have a bunch of different projects that I am working on, but nothing is quite finished yet. So you will have to settle for a picture of my sweet little Dixie. This is a favorite from a few years ago, she getting older and has lots of grey on her now.

I will try to get something done to show you soon.

A box of Chocolates

The patten for this box has been on my work desk for weeks, and I am finally getting around to making it. It is so simple and easy!! Jen del Muro is the designer of this template, so Thanks to her for the great pattern. You can find the instructions here. On a side note, I do think 5 chocolates fit better than 6, but I did cover mine with B&T paper. Give this box a try, and post a comment with a link, so I can see what you made!

"Let's go racing, boys" just came out of the TV, so time for me to hit the couch and enjoy some Nascar!

Two cards

Sorry for the lack of posts lately, when your in the landscape and irrigation business spring is a busy time. The last couple of evenings I have been too tired to work on much. I have been working on some things for submissions, and if they don't get in I will show them next week. I also am working on a techniques class, and these are two of the cards I have come up with. This 1st one is Monochromatic color and dry embossing.




This card is for learning about second and 3rd generation stamping plus stamping on transparencies.

I plan to work on some more items for the craft fair next weekend, so I will post those on Sunday sometime.

Enjoy your weekend!!

Band-aid tin

I don't have anything new right now, so I will show this from the past. I have been working on some stuff, just can't show you right now. This is a cute little band-aid tin filled with cards, envelopes and stickers. I have several of these and will be selling them at the craft fair on the 12th.

For this card I used a creative clip as the body for the Butterfly! I covered the bottom half with sassy strands to make her look fuzzy.

Here wings are from a large paper flower. I painted over the petals with pearl paint and the poured prisma glitter over the paint. Can you see it "twinkling?"
