It's Friday!


Hey everyone! It's Friday!!! What a good day! Who knew that when you get up early rather than sleep in on your day off - you have more hours in the day to do things that you love! Like I love making cards - I haven't made one yet today, but I will. I also love meeting my sister for lunch at the restaurant she works at - which I am doing today! So excited!! I also love to sing - so with an empty house and some great music playing, you can bet I'm singing my heart out!
Anyways, the card I'm posting today I am going to call Frogalicious...lol...don't even ask where that came from because I have no clue! It's Friday, that's all I can say! So I made this card with scrap paper, my froggy stamp from Cornish Heritage Farms, and my watercolor pencils to color in the image. I punched the star out of sparkle paper to capture the color of the froggy's tongues. Love it!
So who's having a good Friday? I AM!! Now I'm going to go make a card - if I finish it, I will try to post it asap.

Thanks for stopping by!!

Believe

Posted by Picasa

Hello there! So far so good. I have been trying to post more often and I am doing okay so far - not everyday, but more than once a month now. LOL

So today I have posted a picture of my card Believe. I used Basic Grey papers and sticker, some pearl stickles and some pink cardstock. My stamp is a set from Cornish Heritage Farms - one of my first purchases from them. I also added some ink to the edge of the stamped image. I made this card as part of a set of four that I donated to my church for a ladies brunch - they gave them away as a prize. I will probably make another one of this card because I liked it so much! I do believe!

Well I believe that's all I have to say about that. Today I am working - then hopefully going home to make some cards (which is code for "I will make one card" because it takes me so long to get into the groove) I don't know why - I have all these ideas but then when I sit down to make them it's like my mind goes blank. Anyways, thanks for stopping by and I hope you all have a very lovely day!

Oh Happy Day!

 

Hey Everyone! Happy Saturday! So far today I woke up early - which never happens on a Saturday - did some cleaning up, and then got right to work on making a card for today...which I will post shortly. Right now though I have chosen this lovely card to show you. It is my Oh Happy Day card. When I see that sentiment I can't help singing that song from Sister Act 2 - Oh Happy Day - LOVE IT! Anywho, back to the card. I used some coordinating patterned papers with a few different colours of cardstock - including some shimmery cardstock. The stamp I used is a $1.50 stamp from Michael's. In the corner where I used a quarter of a circle - I used me FIRST Cuttlebug folder to create the embossed effect. To complete this card I added some Prima flowers held on with a brad from Memory Makers. And knowing me I'm sure there is some form of Stickles on this card - gotta have my stickles!! Anyways, hope you enjoy your visit & come back soon!!
