Fairy Knolls Challange

Wow, The week has really blown by. Some how my post last week got lost. Not sure where or how. Thie week over at fun at fairy knoll is all about "Happy and or cheerful" I choose to use the image "Blowing Kisses
         
           I cut off the heart kisses. I wanted this card for a birthday. Didn't think the kisses would work. I thought it would show how you can take an image and change it just a little  and use it in a totally differnt way. The words and background paper are from "Stampin Up". The words are retired. The paper from their Saleabration sale going on till next Thursday.
          
          You should really go by the fairy knoll blog and join in on the fun you could win this image or one of the many others. I hope to see your entry there. Have a great week end and happy crafting.

Few Things I've been up to


This month is DVT awareness month. All the differnt floors at the hospital where I work were given a sock to create something that was to represent  DVT Awareness
 I made a doll with pas hose on her legs to help with blood flow when unable to move around. I also made a heart monitor. We are a heart floor and I monitor all the hearts.


I also had a day of card making with my friend Eve in Florida. We try and get together once or twice a month via web cam and just stamp and craft. All the following projects were made using "Stampin up" products.

I hope you have enjoyed these projects. I will get some more things up the middle of the week. Have a great day and happy crafting.

KennyK Challenge # 36

This weeks challenge over at kenny k krafty girlz challenge is all about

Lace, Ribbon & Bows

      I used the image "Wanda Wicked". She just looks like a Ribbon & Bow kind of girl. I printed her out three times in order to use different parts to pop up. I layered and popped up her head & the skull pony tail ties. I also placed a skull on the bow in the corner of the image. The ribbon is from "Stampin  up", the background paper is some I got over at the scrap book store in Severville. The prices are so great at the discount store. I added crystal effects to all the skulls & her eyes. I used copics to color the image.  
       I hope you have enjoyed this project and go by to see all the great stuff the design team has come up with. Have a great day and happy crafting.

KennyK Challenge # 34

I have really fallen in Love with kenny k krafty girlz challenges.
 My card last week actually won the challenge.
{I don't know how I got it turned up side down}

 So this week I used one of the winning images for the skecth challenge. The image I choose to use is "Cheyenne" My Daughter's Boyfriend is Turning "50" soon and I just thought this is fitting. I did turn the sketch sideways. I used a old wood looking background paper I had in my stach for the background. I also used my oval nesties to layer her on. I used copics and stickles for the image. I mean what man wouldn't want to find this on thier 50th birthday.  The inside will say to enjoy a great Birthday. Happy 50th. Hope you have enjoyed this project and go by to check out all the great images kenny k has to offer.

This week at fun at fairy knoll The challenge is all about

Thinking Spring

     I am so ready to think spring. This winter has been crazy. The image I used is "Annika". The image and background paper just scream Spring to me. The paper is from "K & Company". The ribbon is from Stampin up. The saying is from my stach I think it is very fitting with this card. I used copics to color the image. Then layered it with a brown card stock & some more of the back ground paper.  I had a blast with this weeks card. I think you will too as you start to think of Spring.
