better late then never

I know I said I would post last week ,but once again I have been behind the eight ball. So I thought I would post two cards today and more later after I get some pictures taken .

good morning

Wow, I have had a lot of things going on lately. Just a little update this morning. I will work on some things this week end.
I got some good news yesterday. My sister in law has been on a waiting list for a new heart for about a year. I got a call from my brother yesterday saying she recieved her new heart on Wed. night. He said she is doing good. She has already been up walking and talking. They had told him it would be several hours befor she started moving. She was moving with in a few mintues of coming out of recovery. I thank God for seeing her through this. I know he had his hand on this and it is because of him that she is doing so well.
Have a stamping great day and may god bless you today and everyday.

Another Dustin Pike Image

Living in Knoxville Tenn. You just about have to be a vols fan.

I started working on this bear not really knowing what I was going

to do with him. Then I decided to color his cap and gown orange.

That is when it hit me. Little T's all over him & his hat.

We have a nurse at work that has Season tickets to all the games.

SO I thought I would give it to her. It just fits her to a "T"

Fathers day

I have been busy working on father's day cards. I have had a great time creating these. This first one is for one of the girls at work. She told me her dad liked to fish and I thought of these images by Dustin Pike. He has such cute images. Drop over and check out his web sight.

Well

It has been a long week. Have had a lot going on. I am happy to say that all the crazyness that has been going on here the last couple of months is finnally coming to an end. I want to thank everyone that has kept our family in thier thoughts and prays. It has all turned out fine and we are headed back on the right track.

I got some stamping done and can hardly believe fathers day is right around the corner. I made this card using an image from dustin pike. I found it on his mooseberry sight. I printed it out at 25% . I printed it twice and popped out the animals. I also added goggle eyes to them. I colored them with my copics. I found a shrinky dink machine at a yard sale last week. I used it to shrink down the animal faces and used them on the ribbon. The inside says "From the whole Bunch" I really think my dad will love it. Hope everyone has a great week and I will add more on Friday.

just a few

Just a quick note and a picture or two of a few things I have been doing. Haven't really felt up to doing much so I will post a few things I did earlier. The first ones are book markers. The other cards. I hope you enjoy

Happy Hump Day

Well a couple cards I made using Tilda Images. Both are for chaellanges over at Magnolia.net The black and white one is for June which is a wedding card. I think the kissing couple fits that idea well. The other is a sketch challenge. Hope all have a great day and enjoy some stamping time.

mojo

This card was made for a friend to give to her therapist that helped her get her back better after she pulled it out at work. Both images are Dustin Pike. The image on the inside was given to me after I saw it on Becky's Blog it just fit perfect. I begged her for the image to put inside. She is part of Dustin's design team. She does awesome work. If you get time stop by and check her out. You can find a link for her on the right side. Her's is the first one on my list.

magnolis Challenge

Well over at www.magnoliastamps.us Diana has set out to challenge everyone to turn a Tilda image into a Butterfly Tilda. In honor of the new butterfly collection. I had a blast doing this.

All the papers used are from stampin up. I coloered her using my copics. The butterfly wings are and saying are also Stampin up. I stamped the butterfly for the right wing and then stamped it on a reverse stamp block and stamped it on the paper in order to get a reverse image for the other wing. I hope that makes since. If not feel free to let me know and I will see if I can explain that better. Have a great day and enjoy the week end. Hopefully it won't rain all week end here.

Mother's Day Card

I had been asked to make a Mother's day card for a friend's grandson. I used the digi image from Dustin pike. I got the Monster truck image last week as his free wed. image. I wasn't sure what to do with it at first. But came up with the idea & putting a Hangler & Stangler image of a little boy with it. What little boy doesn't think his mom can do anything just like a monster truck.

crazy week

It has been a crazy week. Trying to get things back on track after work hours changed. I did get a couple cards done. Have to work all week end so not much crafting getting done this week end. Off on Monday so will get some done then.

I used my stampin up punch again. It has become my favorite punch it adds so much to a card. At the top I ran cording through it. I used copics to color her. She is one of the images sent to me by Chris over at the magnolia group. She is not a magnolia though. She is a Hangler & Stanglar image. You can only get them in sweden. They are not avaible for sale here. If they were I would be in so much trouble. Hope everyone has a great day. Off to work.

Dustin Pike

He has started making DIGI stamps and they are so cute. I enjoy his style. Most are cute & can be purshased. He does have a freebie on his web site. Usually given on Wed. If you get time stop by & check out his work. I think you will find some thing to like too.

Friday

Well, I got in the mood to createa new card. In this one I once again used my new stampin up punch. Some home made paper. The purple swirl paper was made using the shaving cream technique. I loved doing it. I added a few dragon flys and some ribbon. As you might guess Purple is my favorite color.
