Happy Groundhog's Day




The first card is from one I saw on a blog that I really liked. I changed it up a bit to make a little different. I hope the author Diana Gibbs doesn't mind. Because I had several rooster images already stamped I used them in my 10 mins or less cards. I think the 3rd card needs a little more foo foo. I will work on that today..just not satisfied with it yet.

Another quick card


Another one of the 10 minute or less kind of card. The collage stamp from Inkadinkado makes it easy. I didn't even colour it.

Cards 10 minutes or less





I had to make a few cards in a hurry, so I came up with a few quicky cards. Here are a few I came up with.

Valentine Cards continued



Two little heart shaped cards done with the Nestabilites and my Big Shot. These were fun to do. One being a shaker card. You could fill it with candy, now that would be nice.

Two more versions



Here is 2 more versions of the same card, using the same colours, paper, and stamps.

A Valentine's Day card for you


I love the colours, don't you? There is something striking about black/white and red. Paper used is by Stampin'Up, stamp is unknown and I used my Big Shot to emboss and cut out the hearts.

Ornaments I painted



Here is a couple of ornaments I painted for the painting group.

Ornaments from Sherry L


Here is a couple of ornaments I received from Sherry on a painting group I'm on. They are so cute.

Talk about Stampin Up



Here are the two new catalogues starting tomorrow. SU are now offering unmounted stamps that you can use with the clear blocks. You have a choice to purchase either unmounts or wood mounts now. It's a good thing! There are some lovely new punches as well. Great Cat...a must see to add to your must have list. Sale-a-bration is a great time to purchase. Spend $65.00 and get a stamp set for free. How cool is that!

Another year starting




Just love using Stampin'Up stamps. Here is two samples that I did so far this month. I create alot of cards for birthdays and church ladies, so I have to make lots of cards. I usually do 6 of each type.

Another version of the same card


I made 8 of the first card and thought I would change it up a bit and make it a little different. Well...I think that is the end of my Christmas cards for this year.

Today's Christmas Card


I received a card similar to this yesterday from my good friend Debbie T from Port Alice, BC. I love it so much I just had to copy it, but I made enough changes to make it mine. hahahaa Thanks Debbie for the inspiration.

More Vintage Ornaments



Here are a few more Vintage Balls and the boxes that I made for our church ladies group. Sure hope they like them.

First of my Christmas cards


I usually make 6 of each kind. So this time I made six but some with Olive green trees and some with the Melon Mambo trees. All supplies are by Stampin'Up.
Now that I have it up, I think it's missing something. I think I will have to add something to it.

Making use of my Spellbinder Nestabilities Poinsetta. I made 14 little red cards to hand out at an appreciation night at church. I will be making 60 Vintage balls using the poinsetta on the top, and the last one is just another way to use the poinsetta with the little folded card. The little round card was also using the Nestablities scalloped die.

More ornaments. I love painting ornaments. They are fast and cute to give away. I have a tree dedicated just to handmade ornaments from different exchanges I've been in over the years plus the hundreds I've painted for friends, family and my own tree.

Friday the 13th


This is the 3rd in a series of bird barrel staves I've painted over the years. I've been working on my wood stash with hope to reduce and not add anything more to it.

Dream Upon A Star


Everyone loves Elvis. So today I made this card called Dream Upon A Star. When we were kids I'm sure many of you dreamed of Elvis.. he was everyone's sweetheart.
