Debbi's Quilt


Today I am going to post a picture of a quilt I made for my sister Debbi several years ago. She just now put it on her bed because she felt she couldn't put it on because her dogs would get on it. She has lost all her dogs now and decided to bring it out. Of course if you look close, you will see a cat on the quilt. I told her quilts are made to be loved (By animals and people). Of course that comes from me who has 2 cats permanently on my bed. She picked out the fabrics and this is what we came up with. Thanks Deb from helping provide pictures to my blog. Tomorrow I will have my second blue Christmas card to post.

Blue Christms Card


Yes, I am back. My sister reminds me when I haven't posted in a while. My creative mojo left me for a while and I have been extremely busy at work. I think things are about to slow down so my creativity is reappearing. I have several cards to post but I will start with my Christmas card that had to have blue in it. I used "A Tree for All Seasons" stamp from Stampin up. I just love that stamp set because it has a stamp for each season. I also used the snowflake cuttlebug embossing folder with my Marina Mist cardstock. A few little touches with the red ribbon and the SU scallop punches. A little extra blind was the blue stickles for snowflakes.

So I am back and just keep checking back to my blog for more creative projects.

Challenge is Orange


I was supposed to come up with a card using the color orange. I cut and embossed the orange background, cut 4 - 1 3/4" green squares, and then stamped on white the orange butterflies and the green leaf pattern. I then cut out 1 1/2" squares and adhered them to the green squares. I then added ribbon and the embossed butterflies from the Stampin Up butterfly die.

Raccoon Card


This card was from a kit that Vannessa brought to our little outing the a couple weeks ago. I just love this little fellow. Don't think I will ever be able to part with this card.

September Stamp Camp




I have been on vacation so haven't really had the time to post much new. I just finished all my cards from the September Stamp camp so I thought I would post those. I am always amazed at Susan's creativity.

Thank You Frog Card


This is the last of my craft sale cards. I love the image on this card. It is from a SU set called A Flower for All Seasons. I can't wait to use the other stamps in the set. I also used the SU scallop punch.

Birthday Card


This was another birthday card I made using the scallop punch I bought at Michaels and then another spellbinder die that matched perfectly. You can see that I really like this color combination.
