Wedding card


Here is a card I made for my husband's friend. I used my Just Rite stamp for the letters and the champagne glass stamp came in a kit I picked up at Cosco a few years ago. I used Baja Breeze ink from SU and I put a little glitter on the glasses. I've been a little more productive lately so hopefully I'll be back in the swing of things soon.

Happy Birthday Rick


Hi everyone! It feels like forever since I've posted. I just haven't felt like doing anything. I think this weather has me bummed out. I hate winter and it's coming sooner than I'd like. I hope to get a few cards done this weekend. Lots of ideas, just need to get them to paper. Anyway, I made this card for my husband. His birhtday was last Sunday. (That's when I gave him the card. Just took awhile to post.) I used Beerafella. The beer case charm is from Stamping Bella. The paper is from Michael's. I made the sentiment from my new Just Rite stamp I picked up at the Creative Festival. Monica and I headed down last Friday after work. We saw so many nice things. Oh to be rich! The stuff I could have bought. Dream, dream.

My neighbour Melissa makes the best pecan tarts. She sends over a plate every couple of weeks. I shouldn't be eating them, but I just can't resist. Good thing I have my first Yoga class tonight.

Whatcha doing?


I coloured this image awhile ago and really struggled with the way she looked. I changed the colour of the grass. It seems ok now. She is from High Hopes and is called Jolee's Little Friend.
