Thank Goodness It Is Friday

Good Morning, I hope everyone is doing well. I just have a quick post today. Just to show off a few cards I did for a friend. She called me Wednesday night looking for 6 homemade thank you cards. Which is funny cause I have been trying to make a thank you card for my Aunt for having us this past weekend. Anyways here are two of the cards I have made for this friend. I like how them came out. Dry embossing is something I have not done in a long time. It has been so long could not find my light box so had to do it the old fashion way up against the window even. Not sure the company that I got the buttons from since I have them all in one big box sorted by colour. I used my liquid mono for adhering it. And the whole thing was stuck together by dollar store adhesive squares. The stamp was from Stampin Up the I Believe stamp set. The ink was Stampin Up as well. As always hope you enjoy, and have a wonderful weekend. I hope to have a post out on Monday to show you what I get done at the all day crop I am suppose to go too. Thanks.

Good Morning,

I am sorry I have been so unorganized with my posts. In fact I could not even think of a title for this post. My back is still bothering me so I have not been getting much of anything done this last week. I had a wonderful trip to see my Aunt in Brampton which seemed to help for a little, then of course back to work, which seems to have stalled any healing. Thinking I might have to see a doctor about it since it has been a week and doesn't seem to be getting better.
Now that I have updated you on me, I do have a card to show you. Rosie was at a birthday party last week and so here is the card I was able to make for the little boy. Very pleased with myself and the card cause I was able to us a wobble on it. Most of the papers were bought at Micheals and is either Recollections or one of those all occasions paper pack. Stickles of course were used on the candle wicks as well as the cheeks. Was probably not needed for a boys card, but it looked so nice. The die cut is one I did from the smiley card cartridge on my gypsy. I wish I had video'd it case the wobbles are really cool. And as always I did use my ATG gun to put the layers together. I hope you enjoy and have a good day. Woohoo Grey''s Anatomy is on today as well as Private Practice two of my favorite shows for a Thursday plus Big Bang Theory. Enjoy your Thursday. Thanks as always for looking.

Thankful Tuesday.

I hope everyone is doing well today. I just have a quick
post to share with you. A couple of weeks ago my sister
and I went for lunch on my day off. And as the bill came
she grabbed it and said it was her treat.
Well as most of you know my goal for 2011 is to
try to keep up with all the occasions
for sending cards.
So what a perfect occasion to send a card,
a thank you for a lovely lunch
and such a nice gesture.

Now I have always like that saying "I like/love you a latte"
being that I am such a latte lover. This cute little cup
was cut with my cricut from the smiley card cartridge we
got from the last gypsy update.
The googlie eyes were just dollar store buy, and the stickles on her cheeks
were a dollar buy at Michaels. The stamp is an acrylic stamp
not sure the name. And the paper is from
Me & My Big Ideas specialty cardstock paper pack, and well
as my usual stand by Michaels Recollection. As always
I have used my atg gun for the adhesive. I did something
different on this one for the pop dots. I used some fun foam the
same colour as the paper to pop up the image. I believe it was
from Creations with Christina that came up with that wonderful idea.
Hope you enjoy, I am aiming to put another post for tomorrow
with another card. Have a great day and thanks for looking.

Happy Birthday to a Special Little Boy

Hello Everyone,

I hope everybody is enjoying a nice warmer Thursday. And to my American friends I hope that they are mistaken and you don't receive as much snow as they are calling for. This is just a quick post to show you a card that I made for a special little guy that use to be in my care till he went off to school. Ryan was in my care for about 1 to 2 years, can't really remember how long since he was such a sweetheart to care for, always a smiling face. Anyways he turned 6 this past Monday and so I made him this card from the Just Because cricut cartridge. The papers are all Michaels Recollection, the stickles are also Michaels from their dollar spot. Of course the adhesive is my favorite ATG gun and the pop dots are the dollar store. For the smaller pieces I do have to confess I did us a zig pen. Hope you enjoy. And thanks always for looking.
