Hot Pink Baby!



Hi Everyone! Well Nana is doing way better..Yay! she's up and eating ..whoo hoo! Thank you for all the comments... :)
Today's cards are from me playing during the weekend and really loving the DP and wanting to do something with the left over piece. So this is what I came up with..LOL! The card bases are from SU (Melon Mambo). The DP I'm not sure who makes it :(....... this is what I do. I buy 12x12 sheets of DP, then I cut them down into 6x6 pieces and that means I have four sheets of 6x6 paper, I keep two and I put the other two into a pile for a big Blog Candy giveaway. I have a huge stack ready to go :) that means I will have blog candy real soon :) stay tuned..
1st card ..The image is from High Hopes..The buttons are from SU and the fibers that are in the big buttons are from CTMH. The green ribbon that is on the left hand side is from Making Memories.....
2ND card ... I just love my new image from All That Scraps.. this is Birgitta...I love these Swiss Pixies..BUT Birgitta I altered, I cut her out that means I also cut her wings off (that sounds awful sheesh) ... LOL! I also used my nesties and pop dotted her onto the Bazzill white. The ribbon is from SU. The flowers are from Prima except for the white flower. The white flower and pink brad are from CTMH. That's it :) have a great Thursday!
Thank You!!! Come Again!!!

Manga! hehe



Hi Everyone! well I'm at the hospital again. We got the call that said she took a turn for the worst overnight, they had to do CPR. She's on a ventilator and there going to take it out in a little bit. So I ran home and grabbed my computer to distract myself so I may not do a good job of describing everything so sorry. I need to be quick but the other day I was able to grab the new Basic Grey DP I think it's called Nook and Cranny I'll double check when I get home. O this is a Magnolia sketch and yes, Agustina yesterday's sketch was my own. This is a new image I received from Funky Kits. It's a Manga stamp. Sorry but I don't know the name. All the little flowers are from Prima and the big flower is from CTMH. The buttons are also from CTMH. The sentiment is from Just Rite Stamps. I love the colors I hope you do too :) ..I have to go but I thank you for the comments yesterday. Gina I hope everything will be OK with your family too..
Thank You!! Come Again!!!

Pretty Pirate :)

Hi Everyone! sorry for not posting yesterday..sheesh when it rains it pours. Tim and I left town after dropping off kids at school. He had a doctors appt, well on our way to the doctors appt. We get a call from my MIL saying that Tim's 88 year old grandmother fell in the bathroom and the paramedics are getting her out. :( when we were done with his appt we got the phone call saying that she broke her leg and she's a high risk. Meaning she probably wouldn't make it out of surgery. O boy that sucked so after the kids got out of school we went down to the hospital and Tim never left I had to leave a couple of times and really was never home. Tim and I got home at 1:30am after we got the news that she made it and she will be in ICU for a couple of days...so yay! she's one tough Grandma :) and I am looking forward to baking cookies with her in December.... :)
OK on to the card this is pirate Hanna. The green and black solid cardstock are from DCWV. The DP is from SU. The black glitter brads on each corner are from my "stash" You may not be able to see the green dew drops that I stuck on either side of Hanna but trust me they look cute..LOL! ...I hope everyone has a great day today.. :)

WOJ...Pink Cat Studios



Hi Everyone!! I have a real quick post today. I have so much going on at home these last few days and I'm tired..LOL! so I'm going to sit down at my craft table and try to make something that is pretty. Hopefully that will come true and I'll have a card to show you tomorrow :)
So the first card was a challenge on SCS but I don't have time to run over there and grab the number sorry! It's a real simple card because this was a practical joke card for my SIL to open in front of family but it didn't work out so well..LOL! she chickened out hehe but I thought it was still cute enough to show Ya :) I used my new Pink Cat Studios Sweet Pea image. I'm not sure about the DP but the solid cardstock is SU and CTMH..And what's pretty cool was the buttons are from my "stash" but they match so perfectly..so I lucked out...
The second card is an image from WOJ.. I wanted to show off the DP because I love it so much and I just loved the fact that this image and DP matches so well...The DP is from Cosmo Cricket. Rhinestones from Taylored Expressions and I think the sentiment is from MFT.. LOL.. The ribbon is from my "stash"..this was my own design..something real simple but fun :)
I have to run...have a great day everyone!
Thank You!!! Come Again!!!
