He Is Just Away!







Hello Everyone,

It seems like it has been forever since I last posted here. In reality it's only been a few weeks. I have been working on a few things this past week, which I will be sharing with you over the next few days. Here is a card that I was commissioned to make, and I ended up doing another color. The card was for someone who had lost a male family member, hint the color and quote. I used one of Regina's files from The Cutting Cafe', The Lord's Prayer, which I have had since being one of her D/T members a couple years past. I also added my own special little touches to this design, spellbinders dies, stamps, accessories. I needed to create some new ones for my store, and just to have a few on hand. Be back with more in a few days. Have a great weekend all!

Patriot's Tumbler For My Friend!




Happy Sun.!

Hi~ya All!

A very happy Sunday to you all. Tomorrow is the 1st day of Spring, and we are just getting our Winter here in northern Ca. It has stopped raining, but it is cold and windy! I must say we are having some strange weather, but we do need the rain.

Today, I thought I would share a tumbler I made for a good friend, who helps me with my on-line store. He has been under the weather for a spell, and it didn't help that his football team lost the Superbowl. I designed this cup using my graphic software, and cutter. I hope this helps to cheer him up, after such a long illness. I will catch up with you'll on Tuesday. Have a good start to Spring!

Mother's Day In the U.K!!




Happy Tues.

Hi~Ya All!!

A very happy Tuesday to everyone, I hope your week is going well. It is time for another Cuttlebug Spot challenge, and this week we are honoring Mother's Day in the United Kingdom. A very happy Mum's day to you all. Here in the U.S. we celebrate in May, so I was not thinking about creating Mother's Day cards until next month, lol. I was more along the line of St. Patty's in March, Easter in April.

Our project this week was to create a M.D. card using stitching, either machine of with a pen. Well, I have a white gel pen but it didn't want to write that well even though it is brand new. So out with the machine that I use for my cards, a really nice Singer computerized machine. I just stitched around the edges, and sewed my lace down. The sentiment was cut using my MTC program, punched at the bottom, and added some embellishments. The inside is lined to match, but I have not created the greeting yet. It will be printed on vellum to finish it off. If you get a chance come and see what the other D/T members have in store for you. I am sure you will find some awesome ideas so that you can get ahead start on your cards.

Catcha' a little later!
