Awsome day with my BFF

Hi all

I had another amazing day with my BFF Jessica! Not only did we have some serious crafty time I transformed Jessica into a RED HEAD (I hope she post the pics)! I also tried some cool new techniques that i saw in a magazine.

I used glossy photo paper and dropped alcohol ink on to it. I just used primary colors. I placed the drops fairly close to each other and they SPREAD QUICKLY! I tried when the colors were still wet and when they we almost dry. I like the results when the ink was almost dry because it didn't spread so much and look so dark. Hope this was helpful and inspires you guys to try it! 

I had Jessica laughing at me because I swear I see Alford Hitchcock in the pic!

Thanks for taking the time to read! Have a wonderful day!

My Easter Egg

This is a card that I made for the Erica's Craft Room Challenge.  I used colored pencils for the MelJen bunnies. The butterflies are from a  Martha Stewart punch.  The glitter paper is dcwv and the other paper is from Recollections.  This was a super fun challenge...it put me in the Easter mood!




















This is the sketch at Erica's challenge

Thanks again for readin!

Another Card . . . I am on a roll!

For this next card I was inspired by the current challenge at The Creative Cutter Room - Strolling through the Park Blog Hop and required elements challenge.

This card was made using blue card stock for base.  The sentiment is from Raindrop Echo Designs.  The pattern paper is from the Recollections.  I used a floral/swirl embossing folder and some Darice Teddy Bear brown ink.   I used colored pencils to create my rainbow.  The charm is from my stash.   I used a gold glitter glue around the edge of the sentiment panel...it doesn't show up too well in the pic.

Thanks for visiting!

Post #2!!!

Hi everyone. First of all I would like to thank you guys for being my first followers. You really don't know how much it means to me. Jessica told me how special each of you are...now I understand!

This card was inspired by the challenge at Made Especially for You - 3 Buttons.

The flowered and striped paper is the Paper Studio. The yellow paper is Recollections. I used a ribbon I found at my mothers house from a old hair clip of mine (yes this ribbon is 30 years old! Lets call it vintage! ) The paper flowers are from delights.

My Very First Post!!

My first few projects to share!


 This my very first card. I entered it into a few challenges. This is what started my addiction! : )  I have listened to my BFF talk about card making and crafting and how much she enjoyed it. I am so glad she talked my into giving it a try.

My BFF Jessica (Jessica's Craft Shaque) had to snap a pic of this priceless moment. The sentiment is by  Whimsical Designs - Whimsical Fun Set.

















 This was my second card. I sent it to My Aunt in Holland.  The sentiment is byWhimsical Designs - Snow Much Fun 



















 Third card (I think they are getting a little better as we go along).  The sentiment is by  My Pink Stamper - Love-a-licious set.



















Here i am coloring my first digi image.  I just love the images at Meljen's Designs.

Here is what I came up with





















This is one of my latest card. I really like this one! I made it for my sister-in-laws Birthday. She absolutely loved it.  The sentiment is by My Pink Stamper.

Well this concludes my first post. There will be many more to come! Thanks for taking the time to read it!!
