Photo inspiration this week for

The Shabby Tea Room

 

 

 

Hi there!

 

How's the weekend going for ya so far?  I hope it's a

great one for ya whatever you have planned.  I had

some crafty time last night and came up with the

above card.  I'm entering it over at The Shabby Tea Room.

 

 We were to include colors of the photo, a flower, and

stripes.  My stripes are a little difficult to see.  If you

look closely, I have a strip of stripes along the left

side of the card.  Anyways,  I stamped up a pretty

little lady and added pearls for a necklace.  Doily,

burlap and punched circle with pearls.  The paper

I used was My Mind's Eye.  I stamped up a little

heart from Paper Sweeties for added interest.  The

yummy seam binding ribbon is from Paper Sweeties,

also.  Gorgeous flowers from Recollections were

added to finish off the card.  This sweet little

card will go to my niece for her birthday.

 

Thanks so much for dropping by!  We're thinking

of taking in a movie later this afternoon.  We've

seen several movies lately.  Lincoln was the last

movie we saw, which was very good.  Well,

take care and have a wonderful weekend, hugs!

My card for this week's challenge....

 

 

 

Hi Friends!

 

 

Hope all my crafty friends are doing well today!

 

I was quite happy to get home early from

work to take a photo of my card in daylight!:-)

I am entering this card over at City Crafter Challenge.

The challenge this week is to make a card or project

using hearts.  I got out some fab Crate Paper and

whipped up this little gem. 

 

 Here is another view of my card...

 

 

 

For dimension I cut out a heart shape on cardboard and

covered it with paper.  The felt pink heart is PTI.  Gems

lace, and yummy seam binding were added to finish

off the card.  OK...gonna scoot for now.  Making one

of my husband's favs for dinner...stuffed peppers...mmm!

Take care and thanks for dropping by, hugs!

Happy Valentine's Day!

 

 

Hi Friends!

 

How are you doing on this fine cold January day?  I

am doing better since my last post.  And, I do thank

you for all your sweet comments and support!  You

truly are my sweet bloggy friends, and it's appreciated!

 

 

I thought I'd get a few things done before going in

for a work meeting.  Such as posting this card

and doing some laundry.  But, I'm thinking...ok...

why does my boss schedule a work meeting on

my day off?  It's 11 degrees outside.  I certainly

do not want to go out into the cold blustery wind..lol!

But, another co-worker, Mary, has to do the same,

so no need to whine.:-)

 

Anyways, my card is for a good friend of mine who

loves owls.  I love owls, too!  I just think they are

so cute!  My crafting buddy gives me little

owl stamps, stickers, anything owl when she finds

those little darlings.  She actually gave me the paper,

owls, and hearts.  So, what better way to show my

appreciation than to make this little owl Valentine

card for her?!  As you can see, it was pretty easy

to put together.  Fun hearts everywhere with the

owls, paper, and pretty glittery hearts.  Twine,

ribbon, and gems to finish the card.

 

Whew, I didn't mean to write such a long post.  You

still with me?:-)  Well, thank you so much for

dropping by today.  I'll be around to visit your

wonderful creations.  Take care, hugs!

My Heart is Yours...

 

 

Hi there!

 

TGIF!  Aren't you glad it's Friday?!  It's been a hectic

week for me emotionally and physically.  Some things

going on in my personal life, which I won't go into, but

my card therapy certainly helps to distract me!:-)  This

shall pass too.  I must trust in the Lord for His under-

standing and plan and not mine.  Oh, but isn't it difficult

at times?

 

Anyways, I whipped up this little Valentine card for

my husband.  I just love the Valentine paper from

Reminisce.  It reminds me of when I was a school

girl long long ago...lol!  I couldn't resist putting

on some glitterly hearts and ribbon.  I tried the

ever popular chalkboard technique by BetsyVeldman.

I could have been more precise, but maybe by my

next try at this fun technique it'll be better.  I'm

entering this card over at Word Art Wednesday.

The theme this week for the challenge is anything

goes.  Easy peasy, huh?!

 

OK...I just might be back with another card before

the weekend is done.  You take care and enjoy

your crafting!  Thanks for dropping by, hugs!
