FINAL CHRISTMAS CARD FOR 2014

Happy Monday!

OMGOOOOOODNESS time is flying us by I am going on vacation again YEY! YEY! YEY!
Getting ready for my last week here at work until Jan 5, 2015 its incredible to even type 2015!
I still remember when i thought the world was ending in 2000 LOL (the Y2K) But here we are headed to 2015 and Blessed by Jesus to see another year.

Yesterday i tried to go last minute shopping BUT OOOOOOH WOW its crazy out there had to leave 2 store because of the chaos. You see little kid screaming at there parents for toys, games and electronics. This one kid told her dad (well i don't know what your gonna do but your going to buy it for me she was like 8yrs old!!!!) I had to leave because my blood pressure went up!!!!!!! What happened with us teaching our children the real meaning of Christmas??? Yes i am ok with giving gifts but what happened to the surprise under the tree? Santa Lists??? I was in total shock i don't mean to criticize people. But i do believe that in most cases our Children represent who we are. No offense to no one please. Anyways didn't mean to get off topic. I started a project on Friday I had gone to Ross and Marshalls and 99 cent store trying to find inexpensive Christmas Bags BUT!!!!!!!!! there so expensive i have a big Family so i need about 15-20.
The thing is that they ripe the bag open and toss it in the trash! :)))
So i decided to buy paper bags from the Market (here in CA most stores have banned plastic bags and they make you purchase your bags for 10 cents) so i went and bought 12 bags $1.20 YES 1.20 for Christmas bags. I got some 12 x 12 paper and covered up the VONS sign :)!! Have not finished my project yet but i will post pictures once i am done with my bags.


I want to share my last Christmas Card for this year if you have been reading my blog i have posted different haul items. This card was made from a paper pack i got at Michaels and an Ebay stamp.
clear stamp in the picture from wood ware.

embossed with recollection detailed silver embossing powder and passed it threw the crumpler from fiskar. The leaves are colored in with sakura green and berries with sakura silver.


Its my dads birthday in a couple of days and i also wanted to share the card i made him. Its a little complicated to make masculine cards. But this one came out CUTE!
For this card i got the Happy Birthday stamp from wood ware from amazon LOVE IT!
Colored it with copic markers and used my stencil that i got from Blitsy. Used some Embossing Paste for the background and some ranger blue ink spray. The small dad stamp was from Gina K design and embossed with recollections detailed white.

PROJECT CARD # 5

Happy hump day!!


We are half way threw this week wow! time flies!

Last night i had 30 minutes to play around on my desk. With the rain it took me 1 hour and 20 min to get home. On a normal day its a 20 min drive :(. But grateful we need the rain and i love it.
I made a card with a stamp set from Woodware craft collection. Basically all i did was color with copics and glittered with wink of stella added glossy accents to the center of the flowers and the candle. I used the sentiment from Hero Arts happy birthday greetings. Some pattern paper from AC i love this 6 x 6 every page is different no repeats. I also used a fiskar border punch. Distressed my water color paper with some tattered rose from Tim Holtzs. Used a 1 inch satin hot pink ribbon (I TRY WITH MY BOWS).
One of the things i did not like about my card was the color i used on the plate OH and the bow lol!.

Also i was able to prep 2 background sheets that i will be using for my next project card took some picture of the soon to be card.

Thank you for stopping by!
HAPPY CRAFTING!!!!!!!!

PROJECT CARD # 4

Hi Everyone!

Its raining here in CA I love this weather dislike to drive in it but love the smell of clean fresh air. God is so good he knows we need this water right now. Hope you all have a blessed week.

This card i want to share with you was made for my little sister Karen her birthday is after thanksgiving. I bought this stamp set from Unity Stamp Co. If you have not been on this website you are missing out. She has cheap prices, cheap shipping and excellent, excellent quality stamps. www.unitystampco.com .Me my personal preference in stamps are the unmounted rubber and the clear poly stamps. I do have A LOT of mounted rubber stamps but they take up a lot of space and if your like me :)) that does not have a craft room right now i am taking up 75% of my bedroom and 25% of the living room we need the all space we can get. So i have learned the hard way. When i began my crafting passion i was buying like crazy everything i saw. Trust me when i say 1/2 of the things i own and have i don't even use. I do need them lol (that's just me and my opinion) but really i do try thou :) to destash but I cant I believe that the day will come when i will really need it ill have it already :)))))). Ok ok ok lol lost track there getting to passionate on my stamp beliefs :)). Getting back to the card i have this set it is called Gina and me. I embossed the background with a 6 x 6 crafter's companion vintage rose folder. I distressed it with Rose Bud from Memento and a darker shade of pink with some gold from color box. Using the a stampendous background script stamp stamped with gold and pink gelatos. With some Pink Satin 1 inch ribbon and 1/4 lace ribbon. Using the Unity stamp of the friends in this case i used them for sisters taking a selfie. Colored with Copics and To An Amazing Sister sentiment is from Gina K Designs (un used stamps). The larger sentiment is from Unity Stamps (un used stamp). I used the Die-Namics pierced squares for my sentiment and stamp image. Added a small rose for embellishment.

Hope you like my Project card #4
