Hellllllloooooooooo World!

It’s been a while since I blogged.  Not to worry…I’ve been busy creating, scrapping, and other non-craft related stuff!  I’ve got some yummy blog candy “in the works”, so check back often!  I’ve also been working on some birthday gifts for family members, and, of course, Mother’s Day is right around the corner, too!  Sooooo….that [...]

RAK Winner, and a Shout Out (or 2)!

TGIF!  I’ve been a bad blogger this week.  I’m working on a project that is going to take weeks to complete, so I haven’t got much to show you.  BUT, I did unmount my Stampin’ up stamps - based on some excellent video instruction from Christine at Scraptime.ca.
Here’s the “before”:

And, “after”:

I just use double-sided tape [...]

I haven’t done a sketch challenge in a while, and figured it’s about time.  I kind of did this one in reverse - I made the card first, then did the sketch!  Here ya go:

And my card:

I will [...]

Eye & Blog Candy

First, the eye candy.  A couple of cards - for your viewing pleasure - lol.
I used a new technique (to me) on this card.  First, I inked a piece of white cardstock with water-based dye ink - in various shades of yellow, orange, and red.  Then, I spritzed it with water, and blotted it with a [...]

SPRING has SPRUNG!

Okay, so I just went upstairs to get some lunch, and when I walked by my back door, I caught a glimpse of something PURPLE, and when I investigated, this is what I found!

Aren’t they PRETTY?  Purple is my favourite colour!  TFL!

It’s Hump Day! New Blog Header!

Do you like my new blog header?  It’s a photo I took in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico!  What a beautiful sunset, eh?  I love the way the photo turned out - and I didn’t even use my good camera - just my old “point & shoot” digi. 
Well, it seems that spring is finally REALLY here!  Yesterday [...]

Blog Challenge - YMBD Scrapbooking

I just clicked on over to YMBD (Your Memories by Design), and they have a challenge, (with a RAK) posted today.  The challenge is to create a layout without any photos.  I’ve done this in the past, and remembered a layout I did a while ago - “25 things that make me happy” - thought [...]
