Pots of Love!

This is another card inspired by Nixie 07. She does the most awesome cards. This is also a LOTV image called pots of love. I think these little kitties are so cute!!!
I used quite a few magnolia dies, the swirl, flowers and border across the bottom. The sentiment is punched with SU punches and the butterflies I think are martha stewart. I pulled so more papers out of my stash and ribbon too.
I have bunches of new papers I havent used yet. I have been pulling old papers out for some reason but its good to use them right!?
Happy Stamping!

Woof You!

I love looking at all the girls blogs over at Lili of the Valley. I got the inspiration from this card from Nixie O7 . Everyone over there does such great work. I think this image is called Woof You!
He looks so happy to be bringing someone a huge bouquet of flowers.
I colored him with copics and used stickles in the middle of each flower. I used a few papers from my stash. Then I used two of my new favorite dies. The lace doiley die from TE and the Swirly magnolia die!

Tea For Two!

 
This card was made with Taylored Expressions stamp set and dies. I love the doily lace die. I had to wait for it because it was out of stock when I first wanted it. I loooove it!
I used some new SU papers out of the new mini catty. These papers are called tea something also I believe. I wanted to make this a happy birthday card so I stamped across the bottom of the card!

Talk To The Bear!

I just love this little gal. She is called Talk to The Bear by Mo Manning. They have digital and rubber images. I love the digis of course. They are so much fun to use.  I pulled out some old papers and then used the new SU ribbon out of the mini catty. I just think she is too too cute.

Joyful Tilda!

This is Joyful Tilda! Isnt she adorable??? Anyone that knows me or has been to my house knows I love, love tea things. So when I saw this tilda here I knew I had to have and use Janiels card as my inspiration. Janiel has great cards and I love her blog. Its one of my favorites. You should check it out if you have time!
I used the papers from the new SU mini catty starting next month and the flowers are from there also.
The little loopys at the top right corner are maggie dies. This just might be my favorite maggie ever!!
Well, for now anyhow.
I know I said this in yesterdays post but I am really enjoying just making things I have been wanting to make for the last couple months without a lot of other commitments. I guess commitments are good then it makes you appreciate things like this more, right?!
Happy Stamping!

Maggie w/Heart Scarf!

As I was loading this picture to make this post I was listening to Pandora and right at the same time they were playing a song called Maggies Back In Town. I think that that is such a weird coincidence. Dont you??
Anyway, I got to make quite a few cards today. I am so excited. Two of them are magnolias. What a great day!
This maggie is called Tilda W/Heart Scarf. She is really enjoying the snowy day (which I am hoping to do maybe this weekend or on New Years Day!
Since friday is my birthday I have a really busy weekend planned. Friday is lunch and maybe some shopping with the hubby. Saturday is a day with my Kates and dinner at The Melting Pot (Yum, Yum!!!).
So on to my card. I used one of the card bases that I learned to make in my Amazing Paper Grace kit. (See its making itself useful already!). Then I layered it with some fun blue paper and Pool Party card stock. Colored her up with copic markers and added some stickles. Also I used my maggie tree die and put lots of snow on the branches and some snowflake punch outs with some blue rhinestones.
I hope you like her as much as I do!

Amazing Paper Grace!


I purchased this kit from Amazing Paper Grace . She has one a month. I really liked Decembers so I decided to get it. It came with 5 projects, a stamp set and three dies. I didnt make all of the 5th project because it was a box. I am terrible with boxes. I did the bottom ok and then blew it on the top with my score lines. But you also made 4 clothespin magnets to go in the box. Those did turn out cute and did give me some ideas. So that was good.
I am a real sucker when it comes to kits. Maybe that is why I like making them so much.
Here are two of the cards I made. It was fun learning how to do the bottom of the card and I learned abit about dies and using them outside "the box". So that was good also.
So if you dont like kits you but like this style cards, check out her blog also. She has some awesome stuff on it.
My cards are near as cool as hers because she does some great bows and I didnt.

Kitties Xmas Pressie!

Bud and Kati went out christmas shopping for me and came home with this. The first couple of days the kitties loved it. We move it from inside to the garage at night for them. I found it upside down a few times. I think Keke likes the bottom better than the top. But the bottom is soft and warm also.
Dont they look cute in it??

Whipper Snapper!


I think this little guy is too stinky cute. He is from Whipper Snapper. I used some fun snowy papers and a new martha stewart snowflake punch for him. I can never have enough snowflake stuff. I just love snow. I even got to see a few flakes here the other day (snowflakes that is).
I have used the sketch from sketch saturday . I havent done a sketch in a long time!!

Bright and Cheery!




I love the yellows on these boxes. They are like a little bit of sunshine in this dark dreary weather.
The yellow flowered paper is glittery and the gingham is old CTMH paper  I pulled out of the back room. I did get some paper to match the yellow flower but didnt see it at the time when I grabbed this. But the gingham works good too. I needed two boxes. One I didnt want to be monogrammed so I used the flowers on top instead!

Sunflower!

 
 
 
 
 
I love how this one turned out. I love these papers. They are from Michaels also. You have to cut them just right to get some gold glitter on each card so you do waste some but thats ok. The gold herringbone print is the back of the paper. I am making one for a coworker who has a boyfriend in france since this looks like a newspaper from there. The one I made for her has the word Paris on each side of the purse also.

Teal & Gold!




I love the papers on these purses. On the all goldish one you can see the stripe along the bottom. That is the washi tape. I got it as a gift from Two Peas In a Bucket when I ordered some papers. They included three of the tapes and some letter stickers that matched some papers I bought. But the funny thing is the papers are totally different so they really match these papers also.

Christmas Cards!

I finally had some time for christmas cards today. I made twelve of these. They are just a little different than the one I made a few months ago. I found this pretty blue glitter paper at Craft Warehouse on my trip there the saturday after thanksgiving. I used my SU snowflake die. It has three different sizes on it. So I ran it thru all three colors twelve times and had enough for 12 cards with different combinations. I even used the same papers for the strips across the bottom. I think I used 1 1/2 -2 sheets of each color. I think they are really elegant looking!
This card is one I saw while I was at CW. The little reindeer and sample card I copied are from Savvy Stamps. I didnt want to buy everything at that time so I later bought the tree from Magnolias and I used a stamping snowflake set and pulled the Merry Christmas from another SU set. I changed the card a bit from the sample card also.

Pink Purses!




These are two of the pink purses I made. I love them both and it will be hard to give them away. They are Hello Kitty and Breast Cancer ones. I think they turned out really cool!

Purple Purses!



Here are some more purses I made. I have gotten orders for almost 20 purses and card boxes in the last month so I have been pretty busy with them and not much time for anything else. One of the purse orders wanted monogram ones so I have shown this purse two different ways. Unfortunately, I am having issues with the third purse but you can still see the difference.

Christmas Tree!

Here is our tree for this year. I noticed it is a little crooked and of course is much prettier IRL. But I really like the way it turned out. This is our first year to get a flocked tree.
Look what I found growing in my flower pot today. I am not sure why he was sitting in it. I think that way it was easier for him to eat the flowers in it. I tried to get a picture from the front but KeKe is very camera shy and took off.

Favorite!


I love this purse the best I think. This is more paper from Michaels but not recollections. I love the zebra print and the reddish colored paper is the back of the zebra paper.

Vintage Flower Box!


 
This box was made with some papers I picked up at the store in Independence at the end of this summer on the way to the beach. I paired the papers with orange papers, ribbon and some pearls.
I feel this paper is very vintage-ish.

Black and White!


Each set of card boxes I made this weekend was my new favorite. Then I made a zebra print purse I love too.
Good thing I am making these for someone else. I wouldnt have room to keep them all for myself.
This one is made with Best Creations papers. Thare are glittery and the black sparkly ribbon really set them off.
