Yor The Best

I am back with another card for Mom but it can be for other occasions.  I used Formal Occasion and Forever Young carts.  From my stash I added pearls, gems, ribbon,  Marvy punched flower, MS doily border, Studio G stamp & ink.  The kraft paper is Recollections and also used Lost & Found/My Mind's Eye.  I really like how it turned out. Thanks for dropping by.

Just Relax, Mom

Hi to all my bloggie friends. I am here almost at the end of the day, so behind on everything.  I made this cut for the 1st time, from Formal Occasion cart.  I scored the fan but it is hard to see.  I added one of my favorite peachy faces(PK-Cherub Faces) and a sentiment from My Craft Spot stamps.  To the cute  face was colored with Sakura Gel pens & Pebbles Chalk.  Thanks for joining me.

Mother & Friend



I am here with a quick, simple gift for Mother's Day.  I wrapped my daughters favorite chocolates to give to her.  I measured the mini bag and cut out a piece of cardstock, adding a MS doily punched border on each side.  I used Indie Art cart. for the rose and punched to holes for the recollections ribbon.
On the back I added a tag I made using Create a Critter with a sentiment(I edited) from My craft Spot.  Sorry for the poor quality of the pic but the camera and lighting was just not cooperating. 
Here is a side view of the scrumptious goodies.  Thanks for dropping by.

Little Critters

Hi all. Happy Tuesday to you.  I am here with my 2nd card set and even though it is more time consuming, I am starting to enjoy making them.  As usual, I went to the Create a Critter & MS Seasonal carts.  From my stash I added glitter dots, Studio G ink, American Crafts ribbon,  Skittles, a gorgeous 3D flower from Janis @ Paper Compulsion which I won last year.  To finish it all off I stamped some Peachy faces(PK-493, PK-943, Pk- 573).  I had so much fun doing these cuties.  Thanks for dropping by.

A Gift For Mom



 Happy Saturday.  I made a gift for a special MOM that won't wilt.  I used Freshly Picked to start the project adding a tag made with Emma's Die cuts @ My Creative Time. From my stash I added a metal charm, Cuttlebug embossing, Pearls, ribbon, Studio G stamp, mini punched flowers and gems.
I hand cut the extra pieces to create a pocket and hide tag.  I used another Studio G sentiment stamp W/brown Moment ink & PowderPuff Mango.
I decided to add a little something extra.  I made a few tickets from an old Studio G stamp set and added some Sakura gel coloring.
Here are all the parts to the entire set.  Thanks for joining me.

Hap-Bee Birthday

Hi all!  So excited its Friday and not only because its the weekend.  I have been preparing for a much needed visit to my very missed granddaughters. I haven't seen them since June of last year and you know how fast kids change.  I will be putting away the craft tools for a while to reconnect with my girls.  I am so grateful to my daughter sending for me.  I will still be checking my email & little crafting whenever possible.
Now on to the crafting. I used Create a Critter & MS Seasonal carts. to make this Sketch card which was originally for Peachy Keen.  With limited time and my computer going haywire, I was unable to post it.  From my stash I used ribbon(American Crafts), flower button, Studio G glitter & stamp, Sakura white gel pen, Cuttlebug embossing, MS border punch and Peachy face(PK-294 Cornies).

Rock- A-Bye Baby



TGIF to everyone and what a beautiful sunny day here.  I am here with a baby card using my new cart., Nursery Rhymes, which I won over at HIMCR on one of Laurie's challenges.  From my stash I added MS doily border, an old flower sticker border. The paper is from Recollections and Lost & Found/My Minds Eye.  It was a simple  and quick card.  Even though I never make a card quickly.  It always takes me quite a while to do any card.  Enjoy your weekend and thanks for joining me.
