Happy Wednesday, Everyone!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This month I have a ton of birthdays to make cards for. And I will be making another one soon.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today, I made a black and white card for my dear friend of mine. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have known her ever since I moved from Hawaii in 1997. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She is my dearest friend and I treasure her friendship. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Her birthday is this Saturday and I had to make her a card to celebrate her day. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is my card for her. I just love this image I got from <a href="http://www.digistampboutique.co.uk/catalog/-new-for-august-14-c-324.html">DigiStamp Boutique</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There are 5 other digi stamps that go with this one for an Awesome price. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Please check them out. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used another 5x5 size card base. Layered with white 110 lbs. cardstock from Recollections. The pattern paper is from Ki Paper Pad (Hampton At) called Modern Elegance. I think I got this pad from Walmart. I added a paper doily. I used a Stampin Up die called Deco Labels Framelits. I then use some lace and roses from the package I got from Divine (yep, I'm still using stuff she sent me a year ago). I used a gray satin ribbon from my stash for the bow. Pearl swirls from Want 2 Scrap. I don't think you can see but I also used Wink of Stella - silver and clear on the image hair, dress, shoes and on the die cut as well. Lastly I colored the image with my copics. ,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope she like this card I made for her. The image is spot on image of her. LOL!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thanks everyone for stopping by today. Please let me know what you all think. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Have a Fabulous Day!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Hi Guys, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Every year summer comes and goes so fast that I'm always amazed. This year is no different. My kids are getting prepared for school, they are doing extremely well in swimming and Mommy will finally get a break. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The most exciting thing for me is that I hope to craft more. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
For this week's challenge, I made another 5x5 card. I colored the image with my copics (I will have the list of copics down below for you). I added pearls to the image (flowers in her hair). I used the Recollection 110 lb. white cardstock for the base. Layered pattern paper from Garden Party by Pebbles. I also layered a die cut from Sizzix called Ornate Plate. I actually cut apart the die cut to tuck behind the pattern paper. I also added a doily behind my image from my stash. I added some Prima Flowers (Sugar Blooms) and Want 2 Scrap pearl swirl. In addition, I added some soft green pearls from my friend Carole. Stamped sentiment from my Studio G stamps in Pretty in Pink from Stampin Up. </div>

Hi, again my friends, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How are you all doing today? I made another card today. My hubby's birthday is coming up this Thursday and I had to make him a baseball card. As a Boston Red Sox fan as he is it was a no brainier.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I just found a new baseball stamp from Tuesday Morning and I had to get it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is my card:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is a 5x5 card base from Recollection 110lb white cardstock. I distress the edges of all the paper with Vintage Photo from Tim Holtz/Ranger. I seem to always do this because that's what baseballs actually look like all dirty. LOL! I used some stamps from Hampton Art Clear Stamps called Baseball. How appropriate is that? LOL!! I used Stampin Up Ink called Night of Navy and Real Red. I'm not sure if these colors have been retired but I have all the previous colors from way back. They have changed their colors since the last time I bought from them. I used pattern paper from Little Yellow Bicycle called Vintage Summer. It had the blue and red that I wanted. Then lastly added some red and blue sequins to add a little bling without the bulk from my stash. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope you all like my card. I hope to create more for you all soon. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Have a great day. Thanks everyone for stopping by today. </div>

Hi Everyone, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You know when you haven't been posting for awhile and you post to post. LOL!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well, today is one of those days. I have been mojo-less for sometime and I came a across a channel on Youtube that inspired me to make these roses. The channel is called <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/docrafts">Docrafts</a>. Check them out!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I used the scraps of the remaining ribbon and then added my roses. I think it turned out really pretty. <br />
What do you all think?<br />
<br />
I am also trying to improve my picture taking. Please let me know what you all think of it. <br />

Happy Sunday, My Friends, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today has been busy, but I had a chance to create a card for family. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They live near the water and she loves the beach so I just got a new die and embossing folder that I had to use for her card. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Check it out:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's an A2 card size base. I layered cardstock and vellum to the base. I embossed them both with my new Spellbinder that has shells on it. Then I cut out these flipflops from a Quickuts die - flip-flops. I punched out flowers from my Stampin Up punch. Added some letter stickers, glitter glue, and pearls. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That's it. Another simple card. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope you all like it. </div>

Hi Everyone, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had the chance to visit with Yvette (DailyScrapper) and Yvonne (Scrapbliss) yesterday. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We chatted, snacked, and did a little bit of crafting. LOL!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You know what we all do when we get together. Hehe!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We had a blast as usual. We need to do this more often Ladies!! :D</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Here are two A2 size cards. Very simple and I added some sequins to add some bling without the bulk. I truly love how these cards turned out. I will be using sequins more and more on my cards. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The paper I used Studio G paper I got from Walmart. I used dies from my collection. I used a sentiment from Whimsical Designs set called Everyday Sentiments. I'm not sure if they are available. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The happy birthday is from a Studio G stamp I got at Michaels. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Lastly, sequins is from the Dollar Tree and Joanns. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thanks everyone for stopping by today. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Please come back. I hope to have a DIY Flip It card to share. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Happy Friday!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today, I'm here to share a simple birthday card. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I haven't had much mojo lately and it's been frustrating. I have been shopping instead. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I can't seem to get my craft on. LOL!! It always happens to me. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is my card:</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used my new dies from MFT called Well Worn Greetings. This is another 5x5 card. I just layered black card stock and pattern paper (Recollection paper pack). Added some ribbon from my stash. Layered the papers cut with my dies. Popped up the oval with the Sentiment from TPC Studios called Sentiments. I have been wanting to use some sequins to my cards and instead of buttons I thought the sequins would go well and it's flatter than buttons. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I really like how simple it turn out and I hope you like it too. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thanks for stopping by today. Have a great Friday and wonderful weekend. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will be visiting some friends this week and hope to spark up some mojo with them. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Wish me luck. hehe!! </div>

Hi Friends, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today I am here to share another birthday card with you all. It's a type of card I always struggle with. Yeap, you guessed it. "Masculine cards'. I never know what I'm going to do until I sit down and start. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I try to use up things I have created in the past. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is my card for my Nephew:</div>

Hi my crafty friends, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm back from vacation with family. It wasn't a relaxing one but an assisting and helping out vacation. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Both sides of our families are getting old so it's hard to enjoy when others are not well. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We knew what we were getting into and the kids just wanted to spend time with grandparents and cousins most of all. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyway, I'm here with a card I made for my Mother-in-law. I didn't have any crafting stuff there so I had to wait till we got home this weekend. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here it is:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used some of Tatiana's Gorgeous fabric flowers she made. Thanks Tatiana!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Visit her page on Facebook called <span style="color: red;"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Created-By-Tatiana/157052504335148?hc_location=timeline">Created By Tatiana</a>.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you are interested in her flowers click on the above. Thanks. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Products I used:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Flowers: From Tatiana</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Pattern Paper: Crate Paper "Pretty Party"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Cardstock: Recollections 110lb White Cardstock</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Dies: Spellbinders Floral Ovals</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Punches: Martha Stewart Butterflies and leaf Punches</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Bling/Pearls: Michaels bling and pearls</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sentiment: Fiskars Cling "Birthday Cheer"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is a 5x5 size card. I layered pattern paper, flowers, leaves, banners (I cut myself). Punched/die cut die and punches with cardstock and pattern paper. Added some bling and pearls. Stamped sentiment with Stamin Up "Apricot Appeal". It's a retired stamp pad. I also decorated the inside with just some pattern paper. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That's it. What do you all think? I just love how the flowers add to my card. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Hi my crafty friends, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Wow, it's been one of those weeks. Well, last week was so busy for me I couldn't do much crafting. I squeezed some in but not as much as I would have liked.<br />
<br />
Hope you all are doing well and keeping cool. We really didn't have much of a spring here on the East Coast so now we are in the dog days of summer. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today, I wanted to share another card for <a href="http://creativecolorschallenge.blogspot.com/"><span style="color: red;"><b>Creative Color Challenge's blog</b></span></a>. This weeks colors are Navy Blue, Red and White plus Banners.<br />
<br />
Immediately I thought 4th of July but I thought not. LOL!!<br />
I used an image from <a href="http://samistampsshop.blogspot.com/"><b><span style="color: red;">Sami Stamps</span></b></a> and an sentiment from <a href="http://www.zibbet.com/SentimentalSusan"><span style="color: red;"><b>Sentimental Susan</b></span></a>, two of our wonderful sponsors this week. <br />

Hi Friends, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now that summer is here and school has ended. My kids and I have been keeping busy. I have been teaching them how to ride their bikes without training wheels. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I know it's about time for my daughter since she is now 9 years old but she learned so quickly. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now as for my son, he is only 6, will take some time but he is almost there. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How old were you when you learned to ride your bike with no training wheels?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today, I needed to make some birthday cards for my niece and my hubby's niece so it just happens I was watching a video on Youtube. I found a card that I haven't seen before or had seen it but forgotten about it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is the <a href="http://youtu.be/uzx82yZYtIg"><span style="color: red;"><b>video</b></span></a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here name is France Martin. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She is a Stampin Up Demonstrator that I follow. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I loved this card so much I created two cards from it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here it is:</div>

This one is for my niece. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What the papers look familiar? Yes, you are correct. I just used these papers from my previous project with the teachers gifts. I wanted to use them up. Nah, they were still out and so I used them. LOL!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
These are little cards but they are so different and super cute. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used the paper from Recollections. I punched out butterflies with my Martha Stewart punches. The buttons are from my new Marvy button punch, I got from my Tuesday Morning. I stamped my sentiment witth Archival Ink from Ranger. Oh for the bottom I used my EK Success punch. I don't know the name of it. Sorry. The top end are punched out my Martha Stewart Punches as well. Lastly, I used some black twine from my stash and added glitter glue to the butterflies. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope you all enjoy my cards for today. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Have a great Summer and stay cool. </div>

Hi Everyone, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As the school year comes to a close and summer is here. I find that altering clipboards are the thing to do for my kids teachers. I have been doing them for 3 years now and I really enjoy altering them. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here are a couple of them:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgh772Et4jGLwwFg_M4rtmzepycZV-u7rTQAVMGecHAuEFCsPRYD2poeOED3PzijwEjU8QESMLSnpJ6yaia82iw780uwyQ5C07xH7CgRrz4CTpxWYYWcLZQqTqCftBIH_yFE-Efh7qlER0/s1600/Altered+Clipboard+2014.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgh772Et4jGLwwFg_M4rtmzepycZV-u7rTQAVMGecHAuEFCsPRYD2poeOED3PzijwEjU8QESMLSnpJ6yaia82iw780uwyQ5C07xH7CgRrz4CTpxWYYWcLZQqTqCftBIH_yFE-Efh7qlER0/s1600/Altered+Clipboard+2014.jpg" height="240" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I purchase my clipboards at local Dollar Tree store. I used some recollections pattern paper called Toile and Cream and Polka Dots. I used my Aleene's Matte Decoupage. I also added a tear drop die from Spellbinders to add the teachers initials. I used chipboard Kraft and white polka dots and Decoupage them on too. I hope my son's teachers like it. I have seen his Kindergarten teacher use theirs. So, I know they are useful. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I can't believe school is over and my kids will be going to 4th and 2nd grades next year. Time sure flies. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thanks everyone for stopping by today. Have a great day. </div>

Hi Everyone, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend and especially Sunday/Father's Day. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We had an extremely relaxing weekend even through it was busy with Taekwondo Belt Ceremony on Saturday. After that, we found sometime to enjoy some music at a Blues Festival. We enjoyed some funnel cake, Mexican and Mediterranean food and cool refreshing drinks. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Win Win!! It was exactly what my hubby wanted to do. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As far as my Dad, I do miss him a lot. They are now living in California and it's hard for us to visit as often as we would like. We do call them and sometimes skype. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
LOVE you DAD!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Simply Adorable!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Thank you Lacy Sunshine. I had a hard time choosing. They are all so cute. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now here is my card:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I trying my very best to add flowers to my cards. I'm not very good at but as do it more I will get it sooner or later. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The base is a 5x5 size card. I'm not sure how I'm going to mail it out but its bigger than that with the butterflies and circle extending out. I used pattern paper from Crate Paper called " Oh Darling". I also use the same paper for the butterflies. I cut out the butterflies with my new Tim Holtz on the edge die called "Butterflight". I have seen other ladies use this die this way so I had to try it out on this card. I then added some white crochet and ribbon trim on the top, below the butterflies. I colored my image with my copics (if you want to know the colors let me know by commenting down below). I cut her out with my new <a href="http://diemonddies.com/wordpress/"><span style="color: red;">Diemond Dies Nesting Circles die set</span></a>. I love this set as it has 20 dies total and they perfect for layering and matting. Now for my flower arrangement. I used some crochet doiles from Nica (Simplyshimmeryscraps). I cut out some mint green swirls from Cheery Lynn dies called Fanciful Flourish mini. I cut them up and tucked them here and there. I added some white, pink, and cream flowers that I got from my friend Divine (itsalldivine). Then I added some white ribbon rolled flowers from Michaels. I distress the edges with vintage photo distress ink. Lastly, I add some pearl trim for the antenna for the butterflies. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I truly enjoy making this card and I hope you all like as well.

Hi Everyone, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today, I'm here to share my card to my Hubby for Father's Day. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's another clean but simple card kind of week. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is my card:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVaE1Go9lfjD0qoJhvhmCvLRCIHnocQDBiBKOAOwMxgHjLpiVjWBQALMEow2kDWAOsziwBBrJcI_Fhvw5T7KjYHwgdu24Ry4Y1mYECFBBBaqVFlVlmOHT3g3vfftlWQscISOyolanhMNc/s1600/Hubbys+Card.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVaE1Go9lfjD0qoJhvhmCvLRCIHnocQDBiBKOAOwMxgHjLpiVjWBQALMEow2kDWAOsziwBBrJcI_Fhvw5T7KjYHwgdu24Ry4Y1mYECFBBBaqVFlVlmOHT3g3vfftlWQscISOyolanhMNc/s1600/Hubbys+Card.jpg" height="240" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's an A2 size card (4-1/4 x 5 - 1/2). So, I used black cardstock from Darice. I then used some pattern paper from Recollections - Black Mustaches. Then I added some mustache stickers that I got from Target. I used some of my Shape extras from my last cards. I distress the edges on the pattern paper and cogs (Spellbinders) die cut. I stamped the sentiment with Rangers Archival Ink - Jet Black. The stamp is from Studio G 2010. I cut a tie out with my Memory Box Die - Family Ties with blue cardstock. Love it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I also added more cardstock and pattern paper inside the card. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thanks everyone for stopping by today. I hope you all like my card and comment down below. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I would like to hear what you all think. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thanks again!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Hi friends, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today, I'm here to share my 2014 Father's Day Cards. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's just around the corner and this year cards are not dimensional. It is clean and simple. Not even one pop dot to add dimension. I wanted to be flat for a change. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm also entering both for a challenge on Youtube. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Carol from OneHappyCraftyChick is having a Clean and Simple Card Challenge on her Channel. I thought these cards would go well with the theme. Please check her out.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here it is:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKWj6p-Eyak407qkGaL1cM-9_j2g366QOhVveXo2EYd1AjB57pRgw4TQygtQ99_hAOP64xo0YH7r17zJ7ZYQHqy37j-impjKvs7phxaquYiCl3LQOhb7gGbb_smYRLSYbWJtcLAyQkuJE/s1600/Fathers+Day+Card+2014.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKWj6p-Eyak407qkGaL1cM-9_j2g366QOhVveXo2EYd1AjB57pRgw4TQygtQ99_hAOP64xo0YH7r17zJ7ZYQHqy37j-impjKvs7phxaquYiCl3LQOhb7gGbb_smYRLSYbWJtcLAyQkuJE/s1600/Fathers+Day+Card+2014.jpg" height="240" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love the gears and the paper I used And the distress sure adds a lot to this card. Don't you think? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is an A2 size card (4 - 1/4 x 5 - 1/2 card). I used pattern paper from DCWV - The Timeless Type. I cut the gears out of blk and kraft card stock. I used the Spellbinders Cogs and Donna Salazar Sprinkly Sprockets. Love that time. I added some distress ink Vintage Photo and Walnut Stain to the pattern paper, sentiments, and also the gears. I used stamps from TPC Studio and Studio G. Punched out the circles with my Creative Memories circle punch that I have had for years. An oldie but goodie, right?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I just love the simplicity of the card. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thanks Everyone for stopping by today. I hope you all had a great Monday and perfect start to your week. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

This is a 5x5 card. I love using this size of card. I used the paper from Colobok called Flea Market. I color the image with my copics (I will have the color combo down below). I added some flat back pearls from my stash. I used my Spellbinders dies (I don't know the name of it). I stamped the sentiment with Archival Ink from Ranger. I then added a fan button from my stash. The image is popped up with some dimensionals. Lastly, I used some Wink of Stella - Clear to her headband, pearls, sash and shoes. Love adding some sparkle to my images. Sorry you can't see it. It doesn't show well on camera. <br />
<br />
Copic combos:<br />
Hair: Y11, Y21, Y26<br />
Skin: E0000, E000, E00, E11<br />
Cheeks: R20<br />
Dress: R81, R83, R85<br />
Feather/Boa: C1, C2, C3<br />
Flower, Bow, and Shoes: B000, B00, B02, B04<br />

Hi Everyone, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Happy Memorial Day! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today, I'm here to share a card I just created for my Great Nephew! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He turns 6 years old.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As some of you know I always struggle with masculine/boy cards. This time I didn't struggle as much and to me it's pretty cool! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here it is:</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I absolutely love this card. It's so boyish, doesn't it? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used the paper from 7gypies called Off the Wall. This is a 5x5 card base. I colored a Greeting Farm image from the "Later Sk834" set with my copics. I paper piece his clothing with the pattern paper and kraft cardstock. I then added some square brads from my stash. I stamped a "U Rock" sentiment from my dollar stamps. I cut the sentiment out of my Labels 1 Spellbinders Nestibilities die. I used a paper clip from my stash to add a crystal heart charm. Even though I have never met my nephew I do {heart} him a bunch. <br />
<br />
Inside I added more of the pattern paper and also a strip of black chipboard. I stamped a dollar stamp "Happy Birthday". I also stamped the Greeting Farm image with no coloring. I have seen people do this and I had to do it too. I really like how that turned out. <br />
<br />
Thanks everyone for stopping by today. I hope I hear from you all on what you think of it.<br />
<br />
Have a great holiday and I will be back soon with another card.<br />
<br />

Hi my crafty friends, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yesterday, I created an easel card for no reason. I sort of created two gorjuss girls at the same time and I didn't want the other girl to go to waste. LOL</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So, I created another color. I don't know who I will give this to yet. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here she is:</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I love these stamps. I'm going to start making more of them. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used an A2 top fold card. I made an easel card for this one. I added more of that 7gypies Trouseau papers. I love that pad. Added a paper doily. I added lace from my girl Divine. I also added some flat back pearls. Then I added some silk roses from Michaels and a strand of pink pearls from my girl Divine. Thanks so much Divine. Lastly, added some rosette trim from Divine with some flat back pearls. Love it. Cut out a spellbinders ticket die to add my sentiment and viola!! Done!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Love it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What do you all think? I added a Gorjuss girl and colored her with my copics. Pop dotted her up. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love this card. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Hi my crafty friends, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today is such a gorjuss day that I had to color a gorjuss girl stamp. LOL!! I know silly right. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyway, one my friends is having a birthday soon and I just had to make her a card. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used my gorjuss girl stamps and I absolutely love her. Well, I love them all actually. I need to use them more on my cards and I will. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is a 5x5 size card. I used the papers from 7gypies called Trousseau. I just bought this pack from Tuesday Morning. I colored her up with my copics. I added some metal pieces that I bought from Monica on Facebook. I used Wink of stella glitter pens on her bows, dress, and socks. Sorry, my camera doesn't pick it up well. I punched out a tag from EK Success. I added one of felt bow and bling from Joanns. And that completes my card. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope she likes it.</div>

Hi Everyone, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm back with another design team card for <a href="http://creativecolorschallenge.blogspot.com/"><span style="color: red;">Creative Color Challenge's blog</span></a>. I can't believe how fast summer is approaching and school will be ending. So, for this challenge I created a card for my daughter's teacher for the end of school year. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This week we had to use the colors from the picture below:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjD9fFP5lYQNPhTpQaHr8iYW1XbunXOwgxo1IsnqsjGUWin2_jyMQachIqQMG22E2m6p_2_yUQGjjJbWH21D7hqdiuyTxn-Rv1ciTYWXepo3C242tc3NrYdcmxhf1TQhdK4Kt__oPzXkH8/s1600/1458596_383765315095463_2051693446423386242_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjD9fFP5lYQNPhTpQaHr8iYW1XbunXOwgxo1IsnqsjGUWin2_jyMQachIqQMG22E2m6p_2_yUQGjjJbWH21D7hqdiuyTxn-Rv1ciTYWXepo3C242tc3NrYdcmxhf1TQhdK4Kt__oPzXkH8/s1600/1458596_383765315095463_2051693446423386242_n.jpg" height="256" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And we had to include a stickpin. I had to bust out my beads and stickpins to make some.<br />
<br />
I use an image called <u><span style="color: magenta;">"Occupation Bear Teacher"</span></u> from our wonderful sponsor:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
Here is my card I created for this week's challenge:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhc14OM2pUNp2Me9FVo1JKeweFOp5kxNCOQ0RlgTnkl7IL_s4acOxUi_hp4JIkH2pJ91xwkHry5xfQXJ4mfKdmGBzWtmHsC6dJ8VAK23YIc9LIfy2avay1ngkWj4NU0xcRXB5R8EthbSkM/s1600/Best+Teacher.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhc14OM2pUNp2Me9FVo1JKeweFOp5kxNCOQ0RlgTnkl7IL_s4acOxUi_hp4JIkH2pJ91xwkHry5xfQXJ4mfKdmGBzWtmHsC6dJ8VAK23YIc9LIfy2avay1ngkWj4NU0xcRXB5R8EthbSkM/s1600/Best+Teacher.jpg" height="240" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Isn't he sweet? I just love him. I colored him with my copics. Its a 5x5 size card. The paper I used are from WE R Memory Keepers - On The Record. This paper went with the image and the color challenge perfectly. I punched out a notebook edge to one of the papers with my Fiskars punch. I cut 1-1/2 stripes of the pattern paper to make the rosette. I punched out a banner with my new tiny punches from Fiskars. Stamped "best" with my Studio G clear stamps. Added a satin rosette in the center of the paper rosette from Michaels. Stamped "teacher" with my Imaginisce "Best Teacher" Stamp. I got that stamp a long time ago at Micheals. Made a stick pin with beads and pin from my stash. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That's it. I hope you all enjoy my card and please stop by <a href="http://creativecolorschallenge.blogspot.com/"><span style="color: red;">Creative Color Challenge blog</span></a> to join in on the fun. </div>

Hi Friends, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm back again with another project. This time it's a really quick gift for my kids teacher. I almost forgot to make something for them this year. Like I do every year it's always a mad dash to finish and make something for them. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I found this on Pinterest and I had to try it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here it is:</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This are acrylic mason jars with lids and straws. I got them at my local AcMoore for 4.99 each. It was a deal considering Target was 9.99 each. I just added some ribbon. I cut out some apples with my spellbinders nestibilities and printed out "You're an Uh-Mason Teacher" from my computer on cream cardstock from my stash. I just love it. Inside the mason jars I added some Easter grass and some candies from Target. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I think they will like it. I thought it was pretty cute and clever. What do you think?</div>

I'm here today to share my Mother's Day Cards for this year. I'm so late on making and mailing this out. As you may know I have been obsessed with crocheting. Well, I thought that Mothers and crocheting would go together nicely and this is what I came up with.</div>

It's an A2 card. Three layers of Bazzil cardstock. The green cardstock has been dry embossed with a Cuttlebug folder called Modern Wallpaper. I got it from Michaels yesterday. I used a digi image from Doodle Pantry. I added some flower pearl trim I got from my friend Divine (itsalldivine). I stamped a dressform (I can't remember where I got it). Added some pompom trim I got from Joanns and more of the flower pearl trim from my friend Divine. Thanks so much Divine!</div>
