I have to appologize for not getting back on here to show you any new projects.

I have been too busy lately and ended up hurting my neck again.

I will hopefully be back again tomorrow evening.

Take care

Penguins in Echo Park



I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. I spent alot of time this weekend making cards so that hopefully I could sell some. Always nice to make a bit of extra money so that you can buy more new craft items.

This paper me and my friend Kelly bought from the US and it is from Echo Park. This is the first card that I made using the paper. The ribbon I did a bit of a different way and I like the way that it turned out. Nice change. Not sure if I did it right or not but it is different.

How are you all doing with your Christmas preparations? This year for the first time in years I am a bit ahead. Nice cause then the closer it gets to Christmas the more time I will have to relax. I always have so much last minute things to get done. Hopefully I won't get behind on all the rest of the things that I need to do.

Spend the afternoon at my friend Kelly's and met a new stamping friend called Melanie. It was a nice afternoon and hopefully we can get together again real soon.
Tks once again Kelly.

Tonight I am just sitting back and relaxing for a change. My poor neck needs the rest. Back to work again tomorrow. The weekends go by so fast.

I will be back tomorrow with some tags that I made today at Kelly's.

Ornaments



How are you all doing with your Christmas preparations? Can't believe only one month away it Christmas Day. Seems like only last week it was Christmas. Guess that is a true sign that I am definately getting older.

Anyway .. back to the card.

I made this card the other night and I can't quite say that I am completely pleased with it. For me it lacks something. My daughter tells me I am just too picky.

I have had this set of stamps for a couple of years now and never seemed to get around to inking it up for a card. Had a few things done with it that I never liked and threw out. Maybe I am too picky.

I will be back on the weekend with some new cards to show you.

Enjoy the rest of your evening !

Cardinal Christmas!



I bought this paper last year marked down after Christmas. It is Martha Stewart. I had a few different cardinal stamps and thought that the paper would be fun to use.
I am pleased with how this card turned out. It is the first one that I colored for awhile. I colored it with my copics. So nice to use them again. They are definately my favorite coloring medium.

I have been busy trying to get a number of cards made to sell. I am hoping to start to sell them this weekend. I need to get a few more done yet though so you will have more to come back and look at real soon.

I still have a couple of cards from the Basic Grey kit to show you. Come back tomorrow for a peak.

Enjoy your evening!

Cricut Snowmen!



Good evening all. I hope where you are to is warm. It sure is chilly here in Newfoundland tonight. I think with the wind chill it is about -12 degrees C. Colder than it has been here in a long time.

This chilly weather is fitting for the snowmen that I wanted to show you. I was over to my friend Kelly's and she cut these snowmen and tags out with her Cricut. Aren't they the cutest thing. I really like them and hope to get over to here place again soon and make more.

Come back again tomorrow as I have another new card that I have made to show you.

Enjoy your evening

Hope You Enjoyed Your Weekend!



I hope you all enjoyed your weekend. I sure did. For the first time in months me and my dh actually went out and spent an evening with another couple. We had a great time. A nice change indeed. One that I hope we can do again real soon.

I have to say a big thank you to Sheila at Scrappin Great Deals for cancelling my order and allowing me to pay for it again so that I could get it more quickly. I had a little trouble with my palpal account (completely my fault) and when I went to pay for my order it came up that I was paying with echeck and I don't know if you have ever had to do that but it seems to take forever to get your order. I am looking forward to getting the order as I ordered some new Nestabilities that I hope to show you something with as soon as I get them.

The card above was made with the Jovial card kit. I am almost finished showing you them. I have something a little different for you tomorrow night. I have some tags to show you that me and my friend Kelly made using her Cricut. They are so cute and easy to make.

Enjoy what is left of your evening.

Continuining On With Jovial Card Kit



Sorry I missed last night but I have had a couple of difficult days at work for my neck. Had to relax a bit more.

I really like the look of this card. I can't wait till I get my Jovial paper that I ordered with my freind Kelly. I am hoping to be inspired by the paper.

I still have more cards to show you in this kit. Come back tomorrow for another card in the Jovial Card Kit.

Enjoy your evening!

Moving On With the Jovial Kit



This is the fourth card from the Jovial kit. I can't say that these cards have been hard to make at all. I don't really enjoy doing them as much as I would if I stamped and colored them. I guess it is good to try new things.

Hopefully this week I will get more cards stamped and I may even get some of them colored.

I find since I have had this pinched nerve that coloring is hard for me and it is the one thing that I really loved to do more than anything. Hopefully soon I will be able to get back at it.

Well today is hump day.

Enjoy your evening.

I have another card to show you tomorrow.

Still Working on the Jovial Card Kit



Here is another card made with the Basic Grey Jovial card kit. I have to say that so far I like this one the least. It just doesn't do it for me for some reason. I think it is a bit too plain for me.

I still have a few more cards to show you from this kit. There are a few really nice ones coming in the near future as well.

Be back tomorrow with another one to show you.

Enjoy your day :-)

Another Card From The Jovial Kit!



This is antoher card from the Jovial Card Kit. I like the ease of these cards and I really like the colors in this one. I guess for some it will be too dark but I think it is a nice addition to my Christmas Cards. I really like the long cards and for some reason I haven't done any of these in a long time.

Will be back tomorrow with another card from the kit to show you.

Hope you are enjoying your week so far.

First Card from the Jovial Card Kit!



This card was made with the Basic Grey Kit called Jovial. It is the fist time that I
ever bought a card kit and it was fun to do but I have to say that I do prefer to stamp my cards and put them together my way. I do like the color of the papers and everything but it will probably be the first and last time that I buy one.

This is the first card that I made from this kit. It was also the first time that I used rub ons and I think they take a bit of practice. I managed to ruin a couple of them but I did get the hang of it after a bit.

I have more of these cards to show you over the next few days.

Scenic Season


I made this card using a Su set called Scenic Season that I bought last year. We made a card pretty similiar to this last year at our card class but I changed it a bit. I used the moon mask and changed the color from Night of Navy to Pacific Point. I had some of the paper because it was in in color before. I am so glad that they brought it back again. I also used photo paper instead of whisper white.

I hope the weather is as nice where you are as it is here today. I just love the sunshine. These days are a real bonus this time of year.

Gotta go and enjoy some more of your day

Come back tomorrow and I have some cards from a basic grey card kit to shart showing you.

Enjoy your day!

Delightful Decoration




This is another one of the cards that I have made to sell. I am not quite sure if I really like it or not but I think that it will do. This set is just so versatile and you will probably see more creations that I make with it.

Hope you are enjoying your day where ever you are from. Today is just a georgeous day here in Newfoundland so I am off to take my dog for a walk to enjoy a bit more of the day.

I will be back tomorrow with another of my Christmas Creations. I hope you won't get too sick of looking at Christmas cards because I do plan on making alot more of them yet.

Next week I will have my new Su papers and I have some ideas for that paper going around in my head already.

Stay tuned soon

Take care

Starting On Christmas



You will have to excuse the picture quality. I think there is something wrong with my camera and it is not that old. Then again maybe it is the user. I better check the manual. The picture is a bit yellow I think.

It has been so nice to get back to making cards again. I decided it was time to get a start on my Christmas Cards. I would really like to sell alot of them this year. I was too late last year and sold none.

Christmas cards are my favorite to make. I just wish that I could spend more time coloring but for now I am trying to make my cards with little to no coloring.

This card is make using some DP from SU from last year. I just love the colors. I think they really look good together.

This year I found it hard to get some Christmas Paper that I was happy with so me and my friend Kelly had to order most of our paper online. I find the paper selection this year at Michael's wasn't that much and the patterns are just too large. I find most of the patterned papear the images area too big and I don't do scrapbooking so there is alot of wastage. I did get some awesome paper today thanks to Kelly. I am hoping to get to use it really soon.

I have a number of cards to show you over the next few days.

Must get back at making more before it gets too late.

Enjoy the rest of your evening.

Back In the Saddle Again and Copic Certification

Well I am finally getting back to making some cards again. Am doing much better and I am back to work part time right now. I have made a few cards that I am hoping to show you over the next few days. Hope you come back and take a look.

Copic Certification

I have been emailing a representative from Copic asking that we have a Copic Certification Class in St. John's, Newfoundland and I was advised that if I can get 25 people interested then they would consider coming here and doing a class.

So if you are from Newfoundland and intested in becoming Copic Certified then please contact me by leaving a message or by email.

So far the copic people are going as far as Halifax for classes. We are really hoping to get them to come a little further so that we can learn more about those awesome markers. If you have used them then you know how awesome they are.

Enjoy the rest of your evening
