ConGRADulations!

Happy Friday my friends!!!  We have a busy weekend planned.  Our community garage sale is this weekend and my garage is so full of stuff we can hardly walk around. I hope we get rid of most of it and if not, the Salvation Army is going to be very happy.

My god daughter is graduating from nursing here next week and I can't wait to see her walk across the stage! So of course, I had to make her a card for the event.  I used Jen's May sketch for the layout.

This is one of my favorite a la mode's from MFT.  I love paper piecing the scroll for her. 

Congratulations Nicole!  We are so very proud and love ya lots!

Happy Mother's Day

When I saw this card from Joanne Basile, I knew I had to copy it for my Mom for Mother's Day!  I absolutely loved it, and so did she, Thanks for the inspiration Jo! 

 

   

Loonie Boooeeeyyy!!!

Morning!!  Hope you all had a wonderful weekend.  I think spring is really trying to get here.   No more snow...oh god, did I just jinx it??  Maybe I should just get to my Loonie post hey! 

Dee had us make a boy birthday card which was probably a good idea as I never have any male cards in my stash so thanks Dee! 

I haven't finished the inside yet but I think I will put a big 'DUDE' in there for my nephew cause this is who is getting it and he is so a dude!! 

I know the rest of the girls will have made awesome boy cards as they all have boys and are quite use to it.  So let's go and see shall we!  Ciao....

Loonie for Glitter!

Hey Peeps!  Sorry, my card is a little late today.  I took the pictures of it but forgot to edit them so I had to wait till I got home for work....damn job interfering with my crafting!

For our Loonie Challenge today, Regan had us using glitter!!  Ok, first, I hate glitter, gets everywhere, drives me crazy!  So for me, Stickles are the way to go!  I added some on her crown, shoes and the candles.  I also used Karen Giron's Sweet Sunday sketch from this past week, loved it! 

Make sure you go and see what the Loonie chicks did with their glitter, I hope they didn't get it in unwanted places!  teehee

YO!

Morning friends!  I wanted to play along with the MFT Wednesday sketch from last week as I loved the layout.  So I thought I better post it as the new sketch is out tomorrow. 

Have you seen this new PI from My Favorite Things yet, OMG, I just love her.  She is totally my daughter or really any girl giving attitude to her Mother!   I love her arms on her hips, totally sassy! 

Thanks for coming for the visit!  Ciao....

Spring Showers

Morning!  The snow is melting....YAY!!!!  Yes, I said snow.  But fingers crossed it is our last dump of the year.....HA! 

Today the Loonie's are bringing you spring shower ideas compliments of Rhonda.  I hadn't inked up this Flopsey from MFT yet so I knew it was the one to use.

I won't tell you how many layers of that umbrella are there, ok I will, about 6!!  I just couldn't get it perfect and just kept layering on top till I did.  I am still not really sure I like his umbrella but I kind of ran out of paper!!!  :)

Ok, let's go and see what my girls did for today's challenge.  Ciao.....

Animals!!!

Happy Easter Monday peeps!  How many chocolate bunnies did you eat?  Me too.... 

Maria wanted us to get in touch with our animal side for the Loonie Challenge today.  I so wanted to be 'bad' and a little 'naughty' but I decided that wasn't really appropriate for Easter Monday!  Next time, don't worry!

I so love PJ from TCP, he is just so cute!  I also think my two favorite die's right now is the Fringed Perennial from MFT and the Stamp Trio from TCP.  They are wicked my friends! 

Make sure you visit my Loonie ho's and see what they came up with for this challenge.  Ciao....

MFT Sketch #66

Hi honey's!!!

I was able to do the MFT sketch this week and boy, do I love how it turned out!  Sometimes you see a sketch and think  'yikes, that looks tough'  but then it ends up way better than you expected, just like this one. 

I love this new set from MFT called Big Greetings, the larger font is perfect for cards.  Simple yet perfect sentiments.   I think I will save this for Joely's grade 9 graduation card as she is off to high school in September...maybe I can talk her into playing with her Barbie's again!!!     Ciao...

Stuff:   Stamps - MFT Big Greetings;   Paper - Kraft, White, Cosmo Cricket Tea for Two 6X6 paper;   Supplies - MFT Die-namics, MFT felt, lace, white brads, Nesty's, Memento Ink

Loonie for a Sketch

Morning!  Happy short-week to you all!  Try and stay away from the chocolate bunnies this week....ok, you can have one! 

It was my turn this week with the Loonie's and I am going back to giving the girls a sketch each time it's me so let's hope they had fun with it! 

I was able to finish off my Easter cards this weekend using this adorable new guy from MFT called Funny Bunny!  I should of taken pictures of all the cards as I did some with paper piecing his outfit, so cute!  He was blue,  yellow, pink, green even! I tried to have him look like he is holding the Hoppy Easter sign, I kind of scrunched up one hand doing it.  Poor guy!

Ok, let's go and see what the girls did for my sketch shall we!  Ciao....

Howdy MFT!

Happy Sunday morning!! 

Joely asked if I could make a card for her to give to her step-sister for her birthday and of course I jumped at it.  I love making cards for others more than anything.  And as I just picked up the new October Afternoon Sasparilla paper, I knew I had to use the new PI Cowgirl from MFT to go along with it!  How cute it this hey, I hope Miranda likes it!   I used the MFT Wednesday sketch for the layout to help me out with this.

I know I will be using this set a lot.   Our Calgary Stampede is in July and it is the 100 Anniversary so I am sure I will want to make cards for all my girls inviting them to celebrate it with me!  What happens at Stampede, stays at Stampede!!  HA.....

Stuff:   Stamps - MFT PI Cowgirl;   Paper - Kraft, Enchanted Evening, Cream, October Afternoon Sasparilla 8X8 paper;    Supplied - MFT Die-namics, Nesty's, SU twine, MFT felt, lace, blue brads, Copics
