HI Card and video...

Well, so much for staying away!! LOL! I have been enjoying the last few days of summer with my son but yesterday he got to go hang out with his cousins and so in the blink of an eye I was ALONE! I have been really wanting to get back in to making videos, so here was my perfect opportunity!

I used Cloud 9 ~ Chocolate Chalet stamp set for the kinda funky floral background and stamped with Ink it Up Walnut pigment ink and embossed them with clear embossing powder. I used my Cricut Keystone cartridge for the letters and George for the blurb die cuts. I ran all of that thru my Cuttlebug with the Swiss Dots embossing folder and used Martha Stewart dimensional tape to pop it up. I used the Fiskars Apron Lace border punch to edge the blue strip. I am going to send this to my Send Love Today patient and hope she enjoys it!

Here's the card...

Send Love Today...

Here's a little card I made for my Send Love Today buddy this week. She is a little 4 y.o. who has a brain tumor. Each week I send her a card for a little pick-me-up! A very simple card this week but with an added twist.
Here's the card...



Inside the envelope is a magnet for her fridge. When my son was younger he loved to play with the magnets on the fridge. Hopefully, she will too!

Send Love Today...

As some of you may know, I donate cards to Send Love Today. This is a wonderful organization which sends cards to folks with brain tumors.

My card ... and ... do you see my kitty, Shirley in the background? Sneaky little kitty...

Send Love Today...

Here's a fast post of a card I made for my Send Love Today buddy! She is a 6 year old girl with brain cancer. If you want to make someones day (actually make your own day) check out their site. They are always looking for card makers to volunteer.
This is my first go with watercolor pencils and I really like the results and shades of color.

Wow...I actually had time to craft...

I thought for sure that I was not going to have anytime to craft until after the holidays! Nope, today we dug out of SNOW!! Oh so much SNOW! Then I finished wrapping gifts and viola...I actually had some time to craft! So, I had been wanting to try some Gamsol I had purchased awhile ago and thought this would be the day!

We have had our cat, Shirley for 2 1/2 years and she has never touched our Christmas tree. Last night, my 7 y.o. started shouting from the living room that Shirley was climbing the tree! And sure enough, when I got to the living room, she was literally clawing her way up the trunk!! I don't know if she fell or was spooked by all the commotion, because she came tumbling down, dragging with her lights and ornaments! Fortunately, not the WHOLE tree! So, I thought Fluffles would be an appropriate choice for today! And I am very pleased how she turned out! Kinda looks like Shirley did last night!
I colored her and then applied the Gamsol and was thrilled with the results! Then I applied some crystal lacquer and glitter to the ornaments AND another first .... applied liquid applique for the snow touched branches!



This little girl is going out to my Send Love Today buddy this month! He apparently loves cats! Ignore the ribbon in the picture below...it was picked out by my 7 y.o. but after the photo I could not stand it anymore and changed it out! lol!

stuff:
Fluffles Deck the Halls stamp
crystal lacquer
Primsacolor pencils
Joann's open card stock and pattern paper
