Meet Grace !!!

Morning Everyone !!! I hope you all survived your New Years Celebration !!! It was a very quiet one for me. Not made it out to venture around yet but my daughters are going to take me out for a bit today. Really getting tired of being cooped up in the house. So will be exciting to get out and get some air.

Today I would like to show you another one of these gorgeous Simply Adorable’s from Sugar Nellie !!! And adorable they are!!!! This one is Grace !!! Isn’t she just the cutest??/

These images are just awesome, so much shading done for you in the drawing. What a fantastic artist we have here. For those of you that have trouble shading these are just perfect it is all done for you no guess work.

I have colored Grace with my copic’s and have used some papers from K&Co. The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and I have used one of the MS border punches and the branch punch for my card.

The sentiment comes from Verve Stamps.

So folks start stalking Funky Kits for these treasures are going to be coming real soon and like I told you before there will be no waiting for these will be coming in Digi’s. I know you don’t want to miss them and I can’t wait to see what you all make with these.

Couldn’t stop !!

It’s me again !!! I have a second post to show for today !!! I hadn’t been playing for so long that I just couldn’t stop when I started today.

I spent the last few days sitting on the couch coloring so decided to make some cards with the images.

I finally got some of these gorgeous Lily Of The Valley images and just had to have a play time with them. Aren’t they adorable??  My daughter needed a birthday card for one of her friends little girls so thought this was the perfect image to use.  I have colored her with my copic’s, and the papers are from DCWV.  The challenge over at the Lily Of The Valley Challenge Blog is New Beginnings. So the 1st birthday I thought would be good plus my new items here I have used. I also followed the gorgeous sketch over at Create 4 Fun Challenge Blog .

My last card is for the Sugar Bowl where there is another wonderful sketch and I have used one of the newer images from Sugar Nellie of the Simply Sassy images.  The option over at the Sugar Bowl is to Emboss so I emboss the paper behind the image. He has been colored with my copic’s.  I have used one of the new tickets from Whimsy Stamps. Love these and how the ticket die is so easy to use.

Today I would like to show you a card my granddaughter Kirstie made for her mommy’s birthday this coming Monday. Kirstie came to spend the day with me yesterday and take care of grandma so while she was here we colored some images. I think she done so well making her card. She done this all by herself except for I cut her paper out for her with the trimmer.  She has used Tilda with Ribbon and her papers are from K&Co.  Yes Grandma let her use her copic’s. Her sentiment is from Whimsy Stamps and her flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts  and the branch from MS . The ribbon was from my stash.

I hope you all will leave her a little comment about her card she made . She asked me if I would enter it into a challenge for her like I do and so I am going to enter this into Just Magnolia for her.

And here is my card I made for a few challenges. I have used Tilda with Present here and she has been colored with my copic’s. The papers are from Memory Box and I have used the gorgeous snowflake from Whimsy Stamps, oh the detail into this snowflake. I so wish I had ordered this when it first came out. Just gorgeous !!! The circle sentiment is also from Whimsy Stamps. I have added some glamour dust to the snowflake as well as under Tilda’s feet for snow. The ribbon is from SU.

I am going to enter this into a few challenges.

I’m Home

Oh it is so good to be back home !!! I got to come home last night and boy it was just a big relief to be home and out of that place. I am doing pretty good. Really sore but the Dr said surgery went well. I have a lot of swelling but for the most part I feel okay.  I am on a clear liquid diet and everything at room temperature well let me tell you room temperature coffee SUCKS !!!! But next week I can move on to hot and cold foods and then just like milkshakes, pudding, etc. I just have to start getting a little bit of textured foods at a time. Might loose some weight this way lol But wanted to say a Big Thank you to all of you who sent me well wishes, I so appreciate it more than you will ever know.

 

I was lucky enough to get my new DT images from Sugar Nellie before I left for the hospital and managed to make a little gable box with one of them. Oh ladies you just wait till you get your hands on these !!!! OMG the detail in these images is just out of this world and the shading she has put in them. They are beautiful. I really enjoyed coloring these. Sugar Nellie is providing us with the most gorgeous stamps ever !!!!!!!!!!!! Krista’s images are very addicting as you all know  and these are going to be a must have too.  I know my picture taking isn’t the greatest but I do hope you can see all the gorgeous detail this artist has put into these stamps. They are beautiful !!! So start stalking Funky Kits for these will be coming at you real soon and I believe some are digi’s so that means NO waiting !!!!

But I have used one of my new stamps I got for Christmas. The sweetest lady sent me 3 gorgeous Hanglar Images and I about passed out !!! Thank you dear you are just so sweet and I just love them. I have used papers from MME and the spellbinder frame. The leaf die is from Magnolia and the branch punch is from MS. And of course these gorgeous flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts. I am entering this into the challenge over at 7 Kids College Fund.

Here is a close up of the bottom of the card, the sentiment is computer generated.

Well I have 1 more post scheduled this week and I hope to be home soon and get to doing some crafting while I am off once I am back on my feet. So take care and will see you all around soon. Sending big hugs your way.

Happy 16th !!

Long time here for me !!! I have been so swamped at work that it has but my crafting on the back burner. We have started up new models at work and this time of year is very busy for us. I leave in the dark and get home in the dark. But as of today I am on Christmas Vacation. The factory starts back up the 3rd but since I am having my surgery Tuesday I get some extra time off. GHEEZZ what a way to spend my vacation. Oh well it has to be done.

 

I am a little behind in my images for the new release over at Funky Kits for the new images by Krista at Sugar Nellie so I got a card made for my grandson. He is going to be the big 16 next month, and thought this was the perfect image to use for his card.  The image is called Number #1 Fan. Don’t you just love those eyes? I told you on release that these would be a huge sell out and they were but I know Karen got more in so if you didn’t get them the 1st time around go grab them now.

 

I have colored him with my copic’s and used a chipboard star and added a cut out 16 and added some stickles to it. The doily is a Marianne die that a very sweet dear lady sent me. I just love this die.

 

Well I hope you all have a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. I will be scheduling some posts for my blog with some more Sugar Nellie images while I am in the hospital so hope you will stop back bye. Merry Christmas Everyone from my family to yours !!!!!!!

Morning Everyone!!! I hope everyone is staying warm. Its a little nippy here. The work week has been a busy one. Leave the house at 5 am in the dark and get home in the dark.  This is the time of year where our production gets worse than what is normally is. So my crafting fun is always on the back burner.

This has took me all week to get done just because it is so late when I get home. I have made an easel card box with a drawer to put some candy in.

I used one of last years Tilda’s. and the circle sentiment is from Sandra’s Blog . I so love her digi stamps she has such a talented lady.Then my sentiment on the bottom is from Verve.

Here is the card front

And here is a picture of the bottom where the drawer is

Hello !!! Hope this finds you all doing well. Today I have another Sugar Nellie card to show you from the new release over at Funky Kits. Simply Sassy set 3 is available now and I do hope you have yours ordered for you know these go fast. Today I have used Fashionista and Laid Back Dude on my card.  They have been colored with my copic’s and these pretty papers are from The Paper Studio.  Punches I used are from SU. And I used one of my new spellbinder dies.  I am not for sure of my sentiment. I have forgotten where it is from sorry.

Oh and I had a blast making this lantern that I saw on the lovely and talented Norma’s Blog. This girl ROCKS !!!

I had some trouble with my roof only because I was so tired but the directions were really awesome. I am telling you this lady is so talented.

I used the Snowman from Magnolia and some MS and SU punches , some flower soft for this fur and lots and lots of twinklets for the snow lol And boy that was fun cleaning that up, I had that stuff every where lol

The sentiment stamp is one I got from Sandra’s Blog, you all need to check her blog out, Such great sentiments. I love these.

 

Here is a side view of the lantern. My grandson saw this when I got it finished and asked if he could have it. I was really shocked for he never wants anything like this but he is going to fill it with candy and don’t ask me who he is going to give it too lol Just glad he liked it.

 

Have a great day and thanks so much for stopping bye.

Girl Scout Projects

Morning Everyone !!! Well I am back with a second post today.

We woke up to our 1st snow today !! Only have a couple of inches so far but still snowing.

So hope you all enjoyed the Sugar Nellie Blog Hop today. Those new images of Krista’s is just so much fun to work with.

Today I would like to show you a couple of projects my oldest granddaughter and I have been working on. She is in Girl Scouts now and needed something for each of the girls and her Scout Leader so I made this Tissue Box for her with my new stamps that arrived yesterday. I just love Tilda with her Snowman.

I am entering this into the Magnolia-Licious Highlights Challenge Blog  where Diane asked us to make a project with a Word or Letter in it. So I have used the word Snow here and have used some Twinklets on the wording. Then over at  Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog there is a Color Inspiration so I used the colors from the picture to color Tilda and Snowman.  I have also used some Snowflakes from the SU Sizzix dies and some stickles .

Here is the top of the tissue box

Then here is where we had our assembly line going lol I cut all the boxes out and Kirstie and I taped them all together and added the snowman and snowflake to the box.  She is going to add some candy to the boxes for her friends in Girl Scouts.

Well that it is for me today. I am starting to feel this probe be released some so hopefully it will pass soon and I will feel so much better.

Have a great day and stay warm.
