A Birthday Card

I made for my cousin.  Actually I made 3 but the one I’m going to show you is my favorite and also the only one I took a pic of.   The other 2 cards for my other 2 cousins happen to be cards I have had in my stash for awhile.  Other then making them cards this weekend, the only other thing I did was finish up labeling my wooden stamps that I turned into cling stamps.  I’ve been working on it for a little over 2 years and still need to get some more cases for the rest of the stamps.  I have decided that at this time I’m going to leave the stamps I still have that are wooden alone.  Maybe in the future I will change them over but its just time consuming.  I do have to say I much rather prefer the cling stamps to the wooden ones.  Well I’m hoping to get into the craft room this week, but right now I have a head cold and its just kind of hard to stamp, blow nose & sneeze.  I’m hoping that the cold will only last a few more days :)  So without anymore rambling I will share with you the birthday card.

006 (5)My cousin is unique and loves goth and strange or unusual things.  I find it very easy to make cards for her.  I think she is pretty cool.  She is an amazing drawer and is incredibly funny.  Her and her 2 brothers turned 17 last week.  All supplies are Stampin’ Up! unless otherwise noted: Basic Black Cardstock, Melon Mambo Cardstock, Whisper White Cardstock, Spritzer Tool, Rose Red Marker, Basic Black Marker, Black Magic Glimmer Mist (Local Craft Store), Chic & Scary Die Cut (Local Craft Store)

008 (5)The inside of the card.  All Supplies are Stampin’ Up! unless otherwise noted: Basic Black Cardstock, Melon Mambo Cardstock, Not So Seriously Stamp Set, Chic & Scary Die Cut (Local Craft Store)

I hope you enjoyed the card.  Hope everyone has a wonderful evening.  Until my next rambling :)

Good Golly, Miss Molly

Were in the world did the time go.  I swear it was just Friday.  I actually have 2 things to share with you.  I made these on Sunday and had all intentions to put them on the blog Monday, but I got busy.  This time of year I really don’t like or at least around here in Indy.  Its one of those months that one day its cold and gloomy out and the next its almost 60, sunny and just plan beautiful outside.  One of those beautiful days was yesterday, I actually had my windows open for a little while to air out my house.  Now its back to being cold.  Come on spring I'm so ready for you to be here so I can be outside getting my yard ready for flowers & hummingbirds.  Ok I'm done rambling :)  So the items I want to share with you is something I made for my mom.  I hope you enjoy.  Have a wonderful evening.  Until my next rambling :)

002This is a desk name plate for my mom.  She is thinking about having me make some for her employees desks.  They are really simple to do and fun.  All Supplies are Stampin’ Up! unless otherwise noted:  Designer Series Paper (2011-2013 In Color), Worm Stamp from First Day (Retired), Whisper White Cardstock, Basic Black Cardstock, Markers (Other), Frame (local store), Name (Other Die Cutting Machine).

006Mom saw these at a store the other day and I told her I could make them.  The store ones were a lot nicer then mine and you could actually tell theirs were roses.  That’s what the flowers are supposed to be.  I must work on these a little more. All supplies are Stampin’ Up! unless otherwise noted: Whisper White Cardstock, Glorious Green Cardstock, Pixie Pink Ink, Punch (Local Craft Store)

A Short Post & a Card

So I was planning on have a couple Easter Cards to share with you tonight, but plans changed and wasn’t able to make anything.  I was also hoping to be able to do a few other projects to share with you this weekend, but that’s not going to be possible.  So come hopefully Monday I will have stuff for you.  See when my BF son comes to stay with us on weekends I lose my Craft room because that’s the room he sleeps in and hangs out in.  So that is why I don’t have anything other then 1 card to share with you tonight, but I figure it’s a small sacrifice for me so he can have a room when he comes over.  Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.  Until my next rambling :)

003 (4) I just fell in love with this Easter Bunny.  Actually the whole stamp set is really cute for Easter Cards. All supplies are Stampin’ Up! unless otherwise noted: Everybunny Stamp Set, Baroque Motifs Stamp, Pretty in Pink Cardstock, Chocolate Chip Cardstock, Whisper White Cardstock, Markers (Local Store), Chocolate Chip Marker, Pretty in Pink Marker, Scallop Edge Border Punch, Modern Label Punch, White Uni-ball Signo Gel Pen, Color Spritzer Tool, Basic Black Ink, Pretty in Pink Ink

Kitchen Frame to Share

Good Afternoon all.  Its cloudy & raining here in Indy today.  Yesterday we had snow on the ground today its all gone.  I’m so loving the winter we are having here.  We have had a little bit of snow which I really don’t like but we have been lucky that it only stays on the ground for about a day.  Why cant all winters be like this.  So you didn’t come here for a weather report did you.  I have a frame to share with you that I made for my Kitchen.  Its like the name frames everyone has made.  It was super easy to make once I figured out what color I wanted to use for the background.  I'm hoping to be able to put some in a friends store to sell, of course I will custom make them for the customer/client.  The only thing I have to figure out is where to get the frames.  The frame I used on mine is one I’ve had for awhile.  The really cool thing is my mom already placed an order with me for one to go in her kitchen.  Got to love family.  So without anymore rambling here is the pic.

Kitchen sign 2Supplies are all Stampin’ Up! unless otherwise noted:  Chef (Viola Retired), Markers (Other), Pattern Designer Series Paper Stack (2011-2012 In Color), Whisper White Cardstock, Basic Black Cardstock, Frame (Other)

If you would like to order a Custom Sign let me know.

Hope you come back tomorrow.  I’m not sure if I’m going to be working on anything tonight but if not I will share with you the Christmas Cards & boxes I made.  Hope you have a wonderful evening.  Until my next rambling :)
