On Cloud Nine With Aurora & CTMH Showcase Thursday!

Good morning!! I'd like you to meet Aurora! Isn't she a doll?? When I was looking through Susana's store, I came across her and had to buy the whole set and so happy that I did. She's just darling and so fun to color up! You can't see it well, but I added some CTMH prisma glitter to her butterfly as well. The sentiment is from Stamping Bella and the faux sewing is from CTMH "Sew Happy" stamp set! Also from CTMH is the pin, silver bling and the little tab!! Speaking of CTMH and little tabs, welcome to another CTMH "Showcase Thursday"! This week, I'd like to showcase a new product from the current catalogue called 'Tiny Tabs' which you can find on the bottom left of pg 92. You get 12 little tabs for $4.75 Cdn. I've added one to the top of my card that says 'FUN'. They're really cute and versatile! I tried to take a photo close up, but it was very grainy. I was actually inspired by my friend Chris Olsen to try out this sketch. You can see why I was inspired by her if you click her name and visit her blog!!

Challenges I am entering:

• Crafty Creations: Friends
• Stamptacular Sunday: Love Is In The Air
• Friday's Sketch #88 challenge.

Flutter By Wednesday #96 - "Love" That Is True, Never Grows Old

Hello and welcome to another Flutter By Wednesday!! This week's theme is LOVE! Be sure to have a butterfly, fairy or angel on your project. How simple is that? I have to say, I am AMAZED at the amount of followers and entries we have on our new FBW blog! WOW!! You guys all rock!! The talent and creativity that we're seeing is just phenominal! Thank you all for your support!

I had a completely different card in mind using some new stamps I just got and it just wasn't working for me!! So, for this week's card, I chose a card design called "Confidential" from my CTMH "Wishes" book. This is a MUST HAVE for any card makers out there! It's full of card design's and comes with a template CD as well. I used vellum stickers to embellish it up. Looks like I have a couple cards to choose from for my hubby now!!

Family Fun - 12x12 Layout

Good morning! Happy Monday! It's a cold one here, but the sun is shining, so I am NOT going to complain! We really only have about another 5 weeks of winter, so fingers crossed it's a good 5 weeks. Hope everyone had a nice wknd, we had a VERY busy one and I've been cleaning house as well. My computer/craft room looks awesome and I was able to get in here last night and do a layout. This is from April 2009 and I used CTMH "Twitterpated" paper and stickease. Can't wait till we see water again!

Till next time!

Be Mine Or I'll Croak!

"Be Mine Or I'll Croak" ... How's that for a masculine Valentine? LOL! I LOVE this little guy. He's from High Hopes and called "Froggy Gift" I think he is just so cute! The sentiment is from High Hopes as well and matches perfect, don't ya think? So, I colored him up with my lyra's and OMS and then added some Prisma chalk around him. I followed this week's sketch challenge over at Mojo Monday. The hearts are from a Martha Stewart Valentine punch. I'm entering this in 2 challenges this week:

1. Mojo Monday #124 - Sketch Challenge
2. High Hopes #61 - Valentine's

Flutter By Wednesday #95 - (Open) "Merry Christmas..."

Hello and welcome to another Flutter By Wednesday challenge!! This week's challenge is open, but be sure to include a butterfly, fairy or angel on your project. Danni has alot of fun things coming up this month, so be sure to check in every week!! It's going to be an exciting month!! With that being said, be sure to flutter on over to the FBW blog to see what Danni and the rest of the DT have come up with to inspire you this week! Make sure to link your own creation in Mister Linky while you're there! Also, pls help us welcome our Guest Designers for Feb: Brandi, Alex and Randi!

For this week's challenge, I decided to add another 9x9 layout page to my daughter's (work in progress) album. Isn't this paper gorgeous? It's from a CTMH kit that was available before I even became a consultant, but I was lucky enough to get my hands on one. I love it. I've sprayed it with shimmer paint (it did end up curling a little) and then added some stickles here and there. Enjoy!

"Friendship" Allsorts Challenge Week # 37

My creative juices must be kicking in again! This is my second post for today and I already have my FBW ready for tmw! This is my entry for Allsorts Challenge Blog Week # 37, Sketch and a DT Call. A couple weeks ago, our scrapbook group got together and instead of doing a project, we decided to have a "Stamp Swap" night and man, did we stamp!! We all brought our stamps, layed them on a table and everyone borrowed everyone's stamps. This is from Monica or Tanya. They had theirs all together and I was floored at the amt they had! LOL! You go girls! Thanks for letting me borrow your stamps. I know this little gal is from High Hopes, but I'm not sure of her name, I just thought she was really cute!! I added a little liquid glass on her jar to make it stand out more. The little fireflies are done in sparkly gel pens and I colored up my image with lyra's and OMS. I added a little shimmer paint here and there as well. Enjoy!

Project Tuesday - CD Holder, Minnie style!

Good morning!! It's time for another Project Tuesday challenge! This week, Cindy Burgess challenged us to make a CD Holder. This one was nice and easy to put together. I didn't have any velcro strips though, so I lightly adhered a pc of pop up sticky tape. I used my Cricut "Mickey and Friends" to do Minnie and she's cut at 4". The flowers are from the same cartridge. I added my son's CD in there to show you the inside.

Check out my daughter's creation here! She did a great job!

Be sure to hop on over to Project Tuesday to be inspired by the rest of the DT and be sure to leave your creation in Mister Linky while you're there!
