Candy Cover




I decided to send a friend a box of chocolates and thought I can't just send it the way it is so I went to my scraps and found some paper with chocolate chips on it and my stamp "Chocolate: It's not just for Breakfast" and this is what I came up with.

Sorry for the bad picture but I need to find a better place with light to take pictures. Another goal of mine.

2011 Calendar









This was the calendar I made for my desk at work. As you can see my cats were about all I had to put in my calendar. If I wasn't in a hurry when I made this, I could of added nieces and nephews. Maybe next year. I should start collecting pictures now for next year. This was another calendar I made with my digital program.

Perpetual Calendar




I made this perpetual calendar for a SCS swap that I am in. I decided to add her name at the front. I have a digital program called Memory Mixer. It is quite inexpensive and you can do so much with it. This is a great calendar for remembering birthdays, anniversaries and any other special day.

Be sure and check back tomorrow because I will be posting another digital calendar that I made for myself.

Definitely Decorative Pines


I made a set of 4 of these cards for a SCS swap that I am going. I decided not to put a sentiment on it. I figured she could stamp on the inside for what ever occasion she wanted to use the card for. The moose was from the Stampin Up "Definitely Decorative pines" stamp set which I believe is retired.

Now I am off to play a little more with my copic markers.

Greeting Card Kids




Today I actually made 3 Valentine Day cards using the valentine stamp from the Stampin Up Greeting Card Kids set. Aren't they adorable? I can't even pick a favorite. Boy, am I having fun with my copic markers.

Valentine Box


Today I made a valentine box to give to my friends for Valentine's Day. So I have box 1 done, several more to go. The box was a die from Paper Trey Ink "Favor It Box 3". The red was another die from Paper Trey Ink called Mat Series 3. The stamped image was from Tiny Treats: Valentine from Paper Trey Ink. It is one of my favorite stamp sets. This box was perfect to fill with a little chocolate.

Project 2 of 365.

Happy 2011


Happy 2011! Today is the day for New Year's Resolutions which of course I am famous with never following through. So this year instead of making my usual New Year's Resolutions (Loose weight, get more organized, etc.) I decided to do what I love. So I am going to challenge myself to make 365 cards/paper projects, post more often on my blog (my sister will love this one) and use every stamp set I own.

Project 1 is my second card for the Paper Trey Ink swap that I am in. I used my Love Lives Here stamp set that I recently got. I love the potential of this stamp set. Since hearts are my favorite thing, I can never make too many Valentine Day cards. So you might be seeing a few of those projects in the next couple of days.
