Frankie Card . . .

I'm getting in the Halloween mood! I keep bugging the hubby to decorate the yard and he keeps saying, It's not even October yet! So, I'll ask him again 2morrow! hee hee!

This card was made out of alot of SU tab punches, black and brushed silver. Circle punches for his eyes. Black SU marker for his stitches and there you have it! Have a great day. See ya'll 2morrow!

Mummy Bag . . .

Wow! I wanted to make my pictures look better so I've been playing with Photoshop today and LOOK!!!! YEAH!
Okay, on to my post. This is a Mummy bag made out of a white lunch bag. I got the Tearing Edge by SU and made strips of white cardstock which I sponged with carmel ink. I used SU punches to make his eyes and the sentiment is made with SU Chills & Thrills Rub-Ons.

Stamping in the Park . .

Every Wednesday I get together with an AWESOME group of ladies and stamp at the local park for 2 hours. It's an 8 week class, that flys by WAY to fast! Tonite was the last class, and we have a little tradition on the last day, we all bring a junk food item and swap with each other! It's a fun nite, I never know what I love best, the food, the swaps or the class! :0) These were the swaps I did to pass out to
the girls! I used the new stamps from The Cat's Pajamas. All paper is SU. I used the Marvy Ucida big scallop punch and the white circle was cut with Colluzle. The embossing was done with a Cuttlebug folder in my new SU Big Shot! I've started with all my Halloween cards, so stop by 2morrow . . . Have a good nite!

The parking area at my work. The empty spot next the the grass is where I was parked. After lunch I was getting out of my truck and turned and yes folks you guessed it, gracefully fell into that hole in the grass!!! Some man walking by sd, "OMG, ma'am are you okay?" I was soooo embarassed I got up and brushed the grass off my pants and evaluated my injuries inside the privacy of my cubicle :) I now have a bruise on my other elbow!!!!!!! YES, I NEED A BUBBLE!!!

I've been working very hard on swaps that I need for Wednesday nite and Sunday! I will be posting them really soon! Have a good nite!

Standing Pop Up Card . . .


These are standing pop up cards? Okay that sounds good! They are easy to make and yes they fold down flat to fit in the envelope. The base is a solid color, 4 1/4 x 11. Score at 1, 2 3/4, 3 3/4, 5 1/2, 7 1/4, 8 1/4 and 10. Once it's all scored, fold in half and make a slit in the center big enough for your tag part. The standing part, solid color is 2 3/4 x 5 1/4. And the white part that you stamp your image is 2 1/2 x 5. Give it a try and have fun!

A RAK from Pat

This is a beautiful RAK (Random Act of Kindness) that I received from Pat Asaro from Redding, CA. We both joined Jen's monthy RAK (you can view her blog from my sidebar) Pieces of Me . . .
This card is so beautifully detailed! It's embossed on the outside and the inside has a gesiha girl stamped on vellum. And the card was filled with glittery goodies!!!!!!!! Thanks Pat!!!!!!!!!!

New Stamps in the house . . .

Sorry for the scattered pictures, but I'm having trouble loading them on to my blog right now, so I had to load one by one. Your looking at a purse/bag I made using my new Scor-pal! It takes one sheet of 12 x 12 double sided paper. The Stamp set is a new set called BC Dzyns from http://www.mftstamps.com/ . The oval circles were made

by using my oval Colluzle. And I it did my 1st ever paper piecing on her top! That's were you stamp the image on printed paper and cut it out and glue! Viola! Hope you like! Have a good Friday nite! I think I'm headed to the Happiest Place on Earth! (yes Disneyland)!


My hubby is da bomb!

Yes girls, my hubby bought me the Scor-Pal! It's not a Hello Kitty bike, but I love it! :0) (Thanks Love)!

A Charm . . .

Isn't it pretty? I won some Blog Candy from Shelley at www.shelleyhopps.com . She made this using Stampin Up's double sided paper! Thank You Shelley, I LOVE IT!

CD Case .. . .

So when I was at the Scrapbook Expo I picked up this die to use with my new Big Shot! This CD holder was made following the directions from SCS. I used SU paper and SU glitter!!!! A small piece of velcro holds my CD holder shut. (Adrienne please close your eyes or act surprised. LOL)! 2morrow my baby starts Jr. High (agh)! He told me today that I can't call him Daddybear no more and that he is a pre-teen (he said this as he was playing with his wrestlers) :0( They grow so fast!
Have a great day!
