Just Moosen' around

Ok as you know I asked for help on this SVG file. This is what came back to me....   It is soooooooooooo good thank you Laura! I just couldn't get it quite right, I was so happy to see Laura gave it a try. You can find the file HERE.

Baby Thank You

Oh I am sooooooooooo sick of doctors!!!! I have had a batch of test and procedures over the past 2 weeks, but I am happy to say it is not breast cancer… Woooooo Hoooooooooooo. Glad it is all over and I am ready to play again.

These cards were cut with the cricut using the new arrival cartridge cut at 3”, I cut the inside at 31/4" so they would stick out of the top a little. I am still having so much fun with the cricut and want to learn all I can about it. If any of you have tips please leave me a post. Thank you for all the prayers sent my way for my niece and me. My niece is still on bed rest but her little boy is staying put and “cooking” as he should. She is at about 28 weeks and doing quite well. She is such a little trooper and she has 2 wonderful big sisters that help anyway they can.

Thank You

Another Wish thank you, this one very quick and easy. I used the pick a petal stamp set from stampin up.

June Hostess Club

Well this is the last Hostess club meeting but we had a great time. What a great bunch of ladies. As always Gina has out done herself with these cards. She will be the first to say they are “CASEd” but they all have her touch to them. Thanks again Gina.

I liked this card so much I had to buy this set.

Fun Fold Thank You

I found this card fold on the Splitcoast Stampers site. I think it is so cute and I always look for new folds and layouts.

Swap cards.

These are the cards I got back from a swap I joined. The only rules were they had to be Easter or Thank You cards…. They are all sooooooo cute! I was so happy to see them in the mail. This was the second swap I have joined and I am working on #3.

I will be making a few of these for Make-A-Wish... great idea.

I made these for my swaps.

Make-A-Wish Thank You

Well I am not feeling all that creative lately. I think I am having some crafty block or something. Jan I haven’t even started on the Make-A-Wish gift basket yet. I have no idea what to make. I am going to take a few days off and work in the yard maybe by next weekend I will have some brilliant ideas. If not I can always run to Hallmark. lol

I did make a Thank You card for Make-A-Wish today because I was feeling a little guilty I hadn't made one in a while. Hope everyone has a great weekend.

Top Note Quit Blocks

I have been seeing these cards all over. I like the fact they can be used for any occasion. This one is another Make-A-Wish thank you, but I think I will be making a baby one…. I have been saying I want a baby around right…Well I won’t be a grandmother anytime soon but I will be a great aunt again... And this one lives here in town so maybe I will be seeing him/her more.
So for this card I punched 1” x 1” squares and glued them to card stock. I used the top note die from stampin up and then the cuttlebug embossing folder. Easy and fast and sometimes that is just what you need.

More Make-A-Wish (MAW) Thank You Cards

When it rains it pours… I totally believe that. Last week started off bad and ended worse. The company I work for is not doing all that great right now. We sale RV’s and with winter and the economy ... well you can see where I am going. I have chosen to cut my hours in hopes we won’t have to cut anyone else or let anyone go. We are all like family there. Hum…. Well most of us are family. lol So anyway things may get a little tight around here but we will be fine. Then Mitch (our youngest son) had a doctor’s appointment Friday, we had to be there at 2:00pm and he had already had his EKG and hearing test so we just needed to see the doctors. Well everything looked good until we told them he had a CT done back in May with another doctor. They went and pulled the chart on this and found the report. The other doctor never called us so we thought everything was just fine (and I still think it is). But there is a Hazy spot in his right lung and they want another CT to check it out. The doctor told us she doesn’t think it is anything but just wants to be safe. We have been down this road before and it turned out to be nothing but you just never know. So we pray and keep the faith that this isn’t anything to worry about. We ended up leaving the Hospital about 6:00pm felling like we had ran a marathon.

Make-a-wish Thank you cards

This is what 102 thank you cards look like, they are all beautiful and I can’t wait to deliver them.

First card of 2009

I wanted to post my first card of 2009 before I go back to work tomorrow. I have been off work since the 19th and I'm still not ready to go back. Oh well......It pays for my stamps.lol

Last night when I was looking around the net for ideas, I found an article about how we all keep buying new stamps when what we really needed to do was learn to color the ones we already had. Now I wish I could remember where I read that because I sure think she is right. I keep buying new sets thinking… I can color that one I think. I just really need to learn to color better. So that is my goal I am going to work on techniques this year… Wish me luck.

This is my first try using my prism pencils and an art blending solution with blending nubs. Not bad for a first thy but I think it will improve over time.

More Make-A-Wish (MAW) Thank You Cards

So like always if you have questions or want to know how I have done something.... or think I should of done something a different way... Just leave me a comment. I love to get them.

Wow 2 posts in the same day….. I knew I would not have time to do anything tomorrow so I wanted to get my challenges done today. This card is a 3 for 1. I made it for the Sketch Challenge and the Cuttlebug Challenge but it is also a Make-A-Wish thank you card. Now you can’t beat that. lol

PCP Sketch Challenge 11/22/08 and more M-A-W Thank You cards

Paper Craft Planet Sketch Challenge 11/22/08 found here: http://www.papercraftplanet.com/photo/photo/show?id=2076575%3APhoto%3A125146






These turned out so cute. They are very fast to make using the oval punch. I chalked the edges and a little around the flower with stampin up pastels. In fact they were so easy I will be making Make-A-Wish a lot of these.









Again thank you to all of you who are willing to help make the Thank You cards for Make-A-Wish. You can find the info here:
