Sparkling Christmas Card

Merry Christmas! A little late, I know. We had little snow for Christmas but day before yesterday we got 6 1/2 inches! I have not been able to make cards as I am watching my grandchildren a lot. Believe me, I'm not complaining. This is one grandma that plays right on the floor with them!  I cased a card that is by "Pam" on Pamscrafts. http://pam-simcrafts.blogspot.com/2017/11/vintage-winter-scene.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Feed:+Pamscrafts+(pamscrafts)  I did make a square one but I forgot to take a picture of it. So, you get to see the 4.25x5.50. I hope you can see all the glitter, even the snowflakes!! I just love it.

Thanksgiving

Good Morning to All. We got snow!! We weren't suppose to get but a dusting but we got about 4-5 inches! Booo!!! I do like the snow with the grand kids though, time to get the sleds out! And last year my Lilly Bug made the best snow man ever! (with her mom...sshh )

On this card today is one of Martha Stewarts "Punch Around" punches in white. The digi I'm sure is Make it Crafty but I'm not positive on that. If anyone knows, please let me know ok?  I cut her out with Stampin Up Circles and the hunter green scalloped circle is also from the same package. I also colored her with copic inks. The Square ( in an orange) is from Spellbinders and is called "Fleur De lis. The yellow flower behind her is also from Stampin Up and is called "Floral Frames". I placed her on a Hunter Green 5x5 cardstock.

Happy Harvest

Good Day to All, I hope your day will be awesome! We went from high 40's to 4 degrees with the wind in a matter of ONE day!! Not all the trees even turned colors yet! The weather has been crazy here!

I started out with a square base and put the Spellbinders Lovin Diamonds in a chocolate. I tucked some leaves from a punch from Marvy and two circle doilies from Stampin Up. I made the large flower a long time ago and used my cutting machine to make tear drops. I added one tear drop at a time to make this flower!! I was ahead of my time when it came to flowers. I made a ton of different flowers to sell and no one bought them. Too large. Now I see them all over. Ha! The little flower is hand made also with a tiny pearl in the middle. I had some lace in my stash to add to the card and with a label maker, I put Happy Harvest.

Moana Birthday

I made this card for my "little bug" Lilly. It was her 4th birthday. I am her Meme. This child loves me so much that she wanted to leave her birthday party and come home with me to sleep over! She sleeps over all the time! What am I doing right that this child wants me like that!

Fire!!!

Good day to all!!
 It's been hard to find the time for making cards these past months. Between watching my grand kids and our Barn burning down, I've been busy. All is well, no animals in the barn but we put the tractor lawn mower, the kids riding jeep, small bike for the grandkids, my husband had a stash of beautiful wood too. We had our new stove in there too ( need to do some work in kitchen first, before we put it in).

On the brighter side I just made this card to send to a friend that just had heart surgery. The flowers are from "Heartfelt Creations"and I put glitter on the flowers and leaves.  The paper is from my stash, the material butterfly I got from a rummage sale but it is from "Jar Jewelry" and the butterflies on the edge are from "Crafters Companion".


                                                              Have a GREAT day

CARDS FOR A CAUSE

Hi, I'm trying my hardest to get back to my blog!!! And I have a very good cause for making cards! Please join my very good friend in her card drive. They (the cards) go to the staff at NATIONWIDE CHILDRENS HOSPITAL. The staff distribute the cards to children with congenital heart disease. The cards help lift their spirits while hospitalized. Here are the cards I have made and sent. Please make sure to check out the rules and where to send them.( http://www.christinahordesigns.com/ ) Like one rule is do not put Merry Christmas on the cards. There are different religions and such in the hospital. Warm Wishes is a good one. Please help Christina make 364 cards for this winter!!! PLEASE!!

Working Bubble Gum Machine!

I hope the weather is nice for everyone out there!! It's not snowing here but still cold, to me at least.
I have made this card for the first time for my nephew, I can't wait to hear from him because I know he is going to absolutely love it!! This machine really works!!

This card is a little thick but I am going to keep looking for smaller things to put in it. I have small jelly beans in this one.
