Wild Orchid Crafts Challenge - Bling!

Hello All!

 

Well, I came down with a nasty bug over the weekend. Me and my girls had the full on flu.. and stuck in bed all of Saturday. I think I slept for a full 24 hours... waking up 10  minutes here and there. My 14 year old son took care of us. What a good little man!

 

Well here's my card for the challenge at Wild Orchid Crafts. Our theme is Bling. I have lots of star dust stickles on my card, even though it's hard to see. I've also used my

Christmas Cookies Digi-Papers.

 

I'm starting to teach at a local scrapbook store - YAY! I'm really excited! It's called

 'This n That Scrapbooking' and it's in Chino Hills, Ca. November 7th is my first class and we will be making this card and 2 other simpler cards for $30 per person. If you live in the area you should check out the store and sign up!

 

Well, I hope you have a great week and can join us this week at Wild Orchid Craft Challenges!

Saturated Canary - Shaped Card

 

 

Hello everyone!

 

Today there is a new challenge at the Saturated Canary Challenge blog. Our theme is a

'Shaped Card'. I took a Spellbinders die and traced it on 3 sides of a scored 8 1/2x11 sheet and made my own shape.. since I don't have any large dies and I wanted to do something different than a circle.

I used this image called 'Grey Tie'.. I still need to read the book!

 Happy Monday!

 

Today I have a card to share with you for Lili of the Valley and for Wild Orchid Crafts.

 

We have a new challenge over at Wild Orchid Crafts. Our theme is to use Metal- Silver or Gold on your card.

But all of my other embellishments you can get at Wild Orchid Crafts... it truly is your one stop embellishment shop!

 

Now for the Lili of the Valley Blog Hop! I'm so excited this is my very first blog hop as a design team member. I hope you find my project just as inspiring as the rest of my design team sistahs! We have Which Crafts? sponsoring this hop as well as Lili of the Valley. Notice we are all using

 Which Crafts? very cool card templates.

Pretty Posie Tote.

Hi there everyone.

Sorry I'm a little late with my post. This is a little tote I decorated for CHA, and never posted.

I got this little tote from the 99 cents store, then I took a piece of canvas and stamped this darling little Cutie Pie called Pretty Posie and colored it with my Copics.I hot glued it to the tote and then hot glued the stitched ribbon to make it look like I sewed it. I added the bbig old brads and thats it! Just look how adorable these came out. Such a great little gift for a crafty friend!

 

Have a wonderful Sunday!
