Loonie Stampers Challenge #59

This weeks challenge was hard for me... I LOVE layers but we can only do a single layer card. So this is one that I came up with. I used a couple of rub ons and added gems to the tree and a cute little ribbon. Definitely was not as hard as I thought and I likes it!!

LSC #58

This weeks challenge was to be inspired by this picture....now mine may be a stretch but I am preparing for a wedding and being crafty. The wedding is a fall theme and the red combined with the cute little ghosts makes me think fall...so her is my project.

As you can see I have to multi task so instead of giving you nothing I thought I would share the Wreath I made for behind the head table! I hope the Bride LOVES it. And here is a fall themed wedding card....

Dont forget to see what the ladies did...
Speaking of ladies I get the pleasure of having Lunch with 2 of them today (Char & Wendy) since I am in Calgary.....weeeee!

A Creep-tacular Wedding Card
Well I said yesterday that I was going to start sending Christmas cards on to the blog but I forgot about this unique little card. SO lets get it out of the way before we see more tinsel and glitter and holiday Cheer!

I also helped the purchaser (my good friend Sarah the baker) make the chocolate fudge topping that we made look like drips running off the fondant...I will see if I can share a picture of that soon.
Thanks for visiting today! This commercial break from Christmas Cards was brought to you by "Strange Weddings"....LOL I kid! Unique is the term ;)

Let Christmas Begin!

Ok, so I hate snow and cold and all that but I do enjoy making Christmas cards. I am afraid to tell you that you will see a lot on the blog for a while. I have decided to do a 2 craft market in town. A friend of mine gave me some GREAT pointers from the years that she was in it.
I have only just started making cards and I have a pretty large goal of cards and paper crafted goodies to sell. I have 6 weeks to get my act together.....wish me luck!
Adious!

Loonie Stampers Challenge #57

This weeks challenge is brought to by Char's picks! I was very afraid at first! But I ended up like the combo so much that this week I made 2 cards. :)

This first card I used my top notes die. Love it!!! This actually still just a card front, I was still up in the air on what color base to mount it on. I did eventually decide but I thought I would do it after (I want to put it on kraft which is not part of the challenge...LOL)

yikes, I hate stress
So my husband comes home from work yesterday and the first thing he says is...Hey I wanna ask you something. The way he said it made me think of the last time I heard that question in that tone of voice. It was when he asked me what I would think of moving to New Mexico, USA. I guess I am pretty good at reading him.
Apparently his boss' son (who is in charge of a huge majority of operations) asked Curtis if he would consider the idea of moving to Casper, Wyoming. I am fairly certain that the look on my face answered all questions he had....LOL He expressed to his boss it was not so much about considering a move he claimed it would be "considering how badly he would want to divorce his wife" HAHAHAHA See I guess he knows me as well.
He knows where I stand and vice versa, I am just in worry mode because he takes his career so seriously and I just hope that he is not feeling let down about not being able to pursue a possibly huge career move (not to mention a humongous pay increase which could potentially be given straight to PTI. I wonder if payroll can do auto deductions for stamps?...LMAO. I kid. I kid)
Anyway that among other depressing things and being busy at work has me in an anti-creation mode, so please bare with me I will return soon I PROMISE. In the meantime I will try to throw a few tasty paper treats you way, gotta have some eye candy.

LSC# 56 - Stargazers & Gerbers

Welcome to Loonie Stampers Challenge #56!!
This week was my selection and I chose to use one of my photographs for inspiration. Please note I only WISH these flowers were bought for me...haha. They we some my Brother bought my mom and they were so stunning I had to take a picture of them. Who does not love star gazers and gerbs?

Anyway, I have a funny confession to make. I made my selection of colors based on the picture before I looked at my paper stock. I did not have any sweet blush so I used the closest match I had. Too Funny! Simple Card not a whole lot too it but the simplicity is wonderful, IMO.
Don't forget to visit the ladies (who are all getting ready to meet in Delaware in a few weeks
I can not wait to see what they did with these great colors!!
