Friendship card

 Hello everyone. Thought I would enter a few challenges this week. I had envisioned this card in my head but  it still didn't exactly turn out as well as I wanted it to, but I still like it.

I used some of my cardstock that I printed off and the middle cut is from my imagine more cartridge. The sentiment is from CTMH ( isn't is soo pretty :)  I also used some flowers that I got from Michaels..I think they are prima, the gems are from A.C. Moore ($1 bin...love those things hehe)

and the ribbon is from Hobby Lobby. Yes, I visit the craft stores everytime I am near them lol.

I also inked the edges with the tattered rose and tumbled glass distress inks. Then I used pop dots on the sentiment tag and the flowers to add some dimension to it.

I am going to enter this into the following challenges:

1.Made Especially for You- use 3 flowers

2.Aud sentiments challenge- Use spring summer colors

3.Jay Gee's Nook- Challenge #18 w/optional sketch

4. Love to create- Friendship

5. My craft spot- Use dimension

Shabby Chic tags

Hi everyone. I made some tags for a tag swap and thought I would share them with you. They are my take on the Shabby Chic style.

I used the create a critter for the birdcage and the bird is from Wall decor and more and the word art is from Gypsy wanderings.

I got the pretty ribbon and tulle from Walmart and the flowers are from Hobby lobby.

This is another similar version of the one above. I used cream flowers  instead of the white ones and I made the center  pink colored flower. I also stamped the bird on this one to give it some interest and I stickled the one above.

Thanks for stopping by!!

Happy Birthday LO

 Hello everyone. So sorry it has taken me so long to post again. I have been really busy with mom and dad, and also trying to raise money for the Relay for Life event we are having at the beginning of May.
    I thought I would share a LO that I made for a birthday. It is a fairly simple LO and  I used my Cricut and my Imagine for the cuts on it and embossed some of  it with my embossing machine.

I made the cake and the present pretty big (not sure the measurements...sorry) so that I could put the photo mats inside them. The cake is from the free digi download I got on my gypsy(smiley faces..or something like that lol), and the present is from the celebrations cart.

I used some twine to hang the banner and added the Happy Birthday.

Sorry this is such a quick post but, I have tons to do and want to visit all of you  before I start on it.

Thanks for stopping by.

Explosion Birthday Box

 Good morning!! I wanted to share a project that I made with you today. My niece had her birthday party yesterday, and I was going to get her an I Tunes card, (we all know teens...they like either money or gift cards hehe) but, I wanted to make her something to go along with it.

She loves to draw so I decided to get her a sketch pad and alter it,(forgot to take a pic of it)  then I decided to make her  and explosion box, instead of a card. Yes , I was in a crafty mood that day! hehe. I haven't been able to craft much do to all the running to the doctors, specialists, hospitals, nursing home and therapists!! So I really needed a minute to myself :)

Anyway, I had seen explosion boxes all over the place and I saw a box that Cindy had made here . It was a "wedding cake in a box" but it fit the bill of what I wanted to accomplish :D Cindy is really awesome at what she does. When you get a minute go check out her blog!! You won't be disappointed.  I got the measurements for the explosion box here on YouTube.

Her favorite colors are blue and purple, so I made it entirely out of papers with blue and purple in them:)

I used my MS punches for all the decorative edges on it.

(Sorry this pic is a little fuzzy)...the metal tag is one I got years ago and had in my stash. I also used ribbon for embelishments , gems. and some flowers.

I am also gonna enter this into a few challenges :)

1. Allsorts Challeng: 3 in a row (I used gems and brads for my  row)

2.Love to Create : All About the Ladies ( I used girly colors and ebellies for this project)

3. Queen of my craftroom: Spring Altered project ( I used spring colors and flowers)

4.Chatter Scene: Just Elements

5. A Muse Studio Challenge: Use flowers

This is Chatter Scene's first challenge so stop by and enter and also all the other challenges..they are lots of fun and who know's maybe the "luck of the Irish" will be with  you heeh, and you will win something :D

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!
