Three Flower Card

Here's a FUN little card that has endless opportunities for it's use. I'm sending this one out as a birthday card to a friend. I used some retired SU paper and the 5-Petal Flower punch from SU to create this card. I added some accent to the flowers by using my white gel pen.

Glad you stopped by and stop back tomorrow when I'll share yet another card creation from February. So until Monday - Remember - Keep Living Your Dream.

Fun Elephant Card

Here's a card I made last month and figured it would make a great birthday card for a little one. I ran my rose cs through my cuddlebug and decorated the front with small stripes of CS and tucked them behind the elephant image. I'll water color in the elephant right before I mail them out.

Thanks for stopping by and tomorrow I will share another card I made in February. Until tomorrow - Keep Living Your Dream!

SURPRISE for my Stamping Buddies

A couple weeks ago, I menitoned that I was going to surprise SIX of my SaddleBrooke Stamping Buddies with a Friday Surprise....well...Here is what I deliveried: I made six of these sweet little purse holders and hung one from each of my stamping buddies mail tube.

Here are all six completed......

A close up of the purse holder and the cards that I added to the inside........

Here I wanted to show you what all six of the purses looked like and their matching card which I added to the inside of the purse.

My stamping buddies LOVED this fun little surprise and I had SO MUCH FUN making these.

Thanks for stopping by and stop back tomorrow when I'll begin posting the MANY cards I completed during the month of February. Until tomorrow - Remember - Keep Living Your Dream!

Convention Gifts

Last Saturday there was a Convention in Tucson and three of my SaddleBrooke Stamping Buddies and I went together. I made each of my friends some FUN gifts to take along. This first one is for my BFF Jan - She's my pink chicky-la-la and this set was PERFECT for her. It included a small box of CANDY - a Note Pad (to jot all those items that the merchants ran out of and you just had to fly home and order them on-line) and a cute business card holder - which my twist was to make a small holder for Sticker Address labels. The ladies were able to enter all those contest or they were able to peel off a label so they could be added to a merchants mailing list........(This was an idea that I learned from my Southwest Stamping Group).

Here is what Opal's set looked like!

And last (but not least) was Berta's set.

Here is what they all looked like waiting to be deliveried to each of my friends.

Thanks for stopping by and stop back tomorrow when I'll be sharing the purse holder that I surprised my SaddleBrooke Stamping Buddies with last Friday.

Keep Living Your Dream!

Pop-Up Card

Many of you know - that if I'm not making some type of project...I'm hunting around trying to figure out a way to create a new fold for a card.....Found this adorable pop-up card on SplitCoast Stampers and just had to give it a try....... Here's what the pop-up card looks like when it's fully extended and sitting on your table

And here are three samples of ones already popped up and one that is flattened down.

One last view of the side of the card.....isn't this just too stinkin cute for words. I think that this card would put a smile on whoevers face it was sent to.

Go check out http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/ for how to make this card.Thanks for stoppin by and hopefully you'll stop back tomorrow. Keep Living Your Dream!

Lunch Box Creation

I'm sure you have seen these FUN metal lunch box tins all around the craft stores....well.......look what I created with mine: It is covered with retired DSP and a TON of ribbons from my ribbon stash.

I made some dividers for the inside using the small SU tag punch and cardstock. Five tabs seemed to fit in my lunch box - but there is NO REASON why you couldn't add more (or less).

Here's what the lunch box looks like and along side of it I have stacked my divider tabs up.

And one last close up look at my lunch box creation. This project was SO MUCH FUN creating and it looks SO SWEET in my new studio.

Thanks for stopping by and stop back tomorrow for yet another creation. Keep Living Your Dream!

Gifts Made For 5-Madison Friends

As many of you know...........When I lived in Madison, my stamper/scrapbooker friend would gather once a month and we would spend the ENTIRE DAY out at the confernce room of the Cross Plaine's Library. Typically, I was in charge of pulling the group together and with that I would make each of them gifts for the day.........Here are some of the gifts that I shared with them: This set is much of what Michelle received during the times she came out to our Saturday Mania's.

I believe Sue received many of these gifts!

No DOUBT who these gifts went to....CHERYL - She's my Chocolate Chip Gal!

Amber was my Rose Red Gal! (Miss you Amber!)

And Jessica received many of these gifts. I also made several of these gifts for my BFF Jan!

Miss you Ladies (BIG TIME) and hope you'all had fun this past weekend at your February Mania........MANY THANKS to Cheryl for keeping the Mania going......I'm hoping to make it back in September - to be able to attend that Mania with you'all.

Thanks for stopping by and I'll be back tomorrow with yet another project that I've completed. Keep Living Your Dream!
