I have had so many computer issues that we finally had no choice but to purchase a new one. I wanted to post what I made for the shoebox swap that Kelli hosted. We had a great time and I loved all the cards and projects that we created that day. I wanted to use the hugs and kisses love notes and the bird punch. The idea was from the occassions mini catalog. Love the bird punch.</div>STAMPIN4TKhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03809366334394178691noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8663806600490892372.post-12432766313966033652009-11-06T05:11:00.000-08:002009-11-06T05:14:53.527-08:00brag book<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_g6U7HWQpR1E/SvQhRSgR8eI/AAAAAAAAAG8/s1n1G-8kMqM/s1600-h/GEDC0167.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_g6U7HWQpR1E/SvQhRSgR8eI/AAAAAAAAAG8/s1n1G-8kMqM/s200/GEDC0167.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5400978434032792034" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_g6U7HWQpR1E/SvQhQ5bOfaI/AAAAAAAAAG0/AAbS3FMZzp4/s1600-h/GEDC0168.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_g6U7HWQpR1E/SvQhQ5bOfaI/AAAAAAAAAG0/AAbS3FMZzp4/s200/GEDC0168.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5400978427300707746" border="0" /></a><br />I am making these little Christmas brag books for gifts this year.

These 2 layouts are 6x6 for a swap that teach0123 is hosting. When swapped we will have the 2 page layouts for the entire year. I signed up for a bunch of spots because I plan to give these to all my scrapbooking buddies for Christmas this year. For June I used on of my SU kits that was retired. For January I used the Cold and Cuddly set.STAMPIN4TKhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03809366334394178691noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8663806600490892372.post-30043034054782676672009-09-13T13:29:00.000-07:002009-09-13T13:33:08.131-07:00U2<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_g6U7HWQpR1E/Sq1Wx5HE4ZI/AAAAAAAAAF8/c9H3p7KW7Mc/s1600-h/u2-790983.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 133px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_g6U7HWQpR1E/Sq1Wx5HE4ZI/AAAAAAAAAF8/c9H3p7KW7Mc/s200/u2-790983.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5381052544921690514" border="0" /></a><br />Not much crafting done today.

This is my day at the farm layout. I used the My world cartridge to cut the barn and tractor out, paper dolls for the fence and hay/grass. I made the door of the barn open up and inside it says" A day in the COUNTRY is worth a month in town". . I think I will add some white clouds, it looks like it is missing something. I am also attaching some ribbon and brads for each person receiving this swap. The brads have are cute little farm animals. I love to visit farms in the fall, we are looking forward to apple picking and going to the pumpkin farms this year. Hope you like my layout.STAMPIN4TKhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03809366334394178691noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8663806600490892372.post-77477168720408584352009-09-06T04:29:00.000-07:002009-09-08T19:12:39.167-07:00THe Best Day Ever Spongebob Layout<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_g6U7HWQpR1E/SqcOpPW36wI/AAAAAAAAAF0/IsQA4s_p4RI/s1600-h/DSC04811.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_g6U7HWQpR1E/SqcOpPW36wI/AAAAAAAAAF0/IsQA4s_p4RI/s200/DSC04811.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5379284381577243394" border="0" /></a><br />This is another Cricut Layout for a swap Melanie hosted. I actually had 4 different spots. Can you believe that coffee got spilled all over all 3 of the 4 sets. The Spongebob was the only one that was not effected as it was bagged already. I would have been really angry if that layout was ruined because that little sponge is time consuming to put together. I really love the 12X12 glitter paper I found on clearance at Target. It is really a nice background for this layout. It is the best day ever for me as my cricut swaps are all on the way to Melanie (coffee free)!!STAMPIN4TKhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03809366334394178691noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8663806600490892372.post-51650228925722327352009-09-05T07:01:00.000-07:002009-09-05T07:05:56.926-07:00Cricut Layout<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_g6U7HWQpR1E/SqJv6iiqA3I/AAAAAAAAAFc/oSMAqeGGolk/s1600-h/DSC04809.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_g6U7HWQpR1E/SqJv6iiqA3I/AAAAAAAAAFc/oSMAqeGGolk/s200/DSC04809.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5377983956529054578" border="0" /></a><br />I created this layout for a Cricut swap I am in that mnewby is hosting.

She is a Havanese (weighs in at 3.16lbs and will get to about 12 -15 lbs) We decided to call her Harley Quinn or just plain Harley for short ! No, I am not into motorcycles nor do I read romance novels . So here is the significance behind her name...... The dog has a constant grin (it is really a line of black fur that makes her look like she is smiling) and reminds us of the Joker from Batman. Anyways when she is laying on her back her ears go up her eyes get goofy and her Joker grin is very prominent. Since she is a female we <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">couldn't</span> name her Joker. Did you know that the Joker has a girlfriend in the comic series/animated series? Neither did I, her name is Harley Quinn. So here is a photo of the Joker's girlfriend Harley Quinn and our puppy. Hence the name for our new puppy Harley! I know I am strange but It is the creative part of me that is always present even when choosing a name for our pooch!STAMPIN4TKhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03809366334394178691noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8663806600490892372.post-83849293908445894102009-07-19T16:59:00.000-07:002009-07-19T19:40:40.389-07:00New addition<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_g6U7HWQpR1E/SmPZIFtqTkI/AAAAAAAAAEc/EcORMw6XmJM/s1600-h/DSC04753.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_g6U7HWQpR1E/SmPZIFtqTkI/AAAAAAAAAEc/EcORMw6XmJM/s320/DSC04753.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5360366714496896578" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_g6U7HWQpR1E/SmO1OdZPRBI/AAAAAAAAAEU/G8P4D5LScHg/s1600-h/DSC04744.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_g6U7HWQpR1E/SmO1OdZPRBI/AAAAAAAAAEU/G8P4D5LScHg/s320/DSC04744.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5360327241514304530" border="0" /></a><br />I have been very busy lately, not posting on blog etc, because I have been getting ready for my newest family member.

The paper is cute...but way to thin for my liking.STAMPIN4TKhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03809366334394178691noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8663806600490892372.post-49085203607598102892009-06-21T15:36:00.000-07:002009-06-21T15:43:06.641-07:00Happy Father's Day!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_g6U7HWQpR1E/Sj63DwxngYI/AAAAAAAAADs/iJomd7Kre8k/s1600-h/GEDC0191.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_g6U7HWQpR1E/Sj63DwxngYI/AAAAAAAAADs/iJomd7Kre8k/s320/GEDC0191.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5349914682623230338" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_g6U7HWQpR1E/Sj63EB1W4UI/AAAAAAAAAD0/tbv7mgEJpE8/s1600-h/GEDC0192.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_g6U7HWQpR1E/Sj63EB1W4UI/AAAAAAAAAD0/tbv7mgEJpE8/s320/GEDC0192.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5349914687202320706" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_g6U7HWQpR1E/Sj63ElF2kRI/AAAAAAAAAD8/cnzYGFevpmE/s1600-h/GEDC0193.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_g6U7HWQpR1E/Sj63ElF2kRI/AAAAAAAAAD8/cnzYGFevpmE/s320/GEDC0193.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5349914696666747154" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br />Finally got a chance to post on my blog.

I have to say... I love this card. I am going to devote a class to just masking, brayering and sunset type of cards . The CCC #4 challenge was to use flowers so I used the SU Upsy Daisy set. For the demo challenge It was our fav embellishment? Who has just one favorite? I went with brads because they are so easy to use and just add that little somethin to a card.STAMPIN4TKhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03809366334394178691noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8663806600490892372.post-19079113039228373252009-04-20T15:27:00.001-07:002009-04-20T15:32:53.812-07:00Cricut Pool party Invite<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_g6U7HWQpR1E/Sez36K558NI/AAAAAAAAACU/csGrRTlRZc4/s1600-h/GEDC0137.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_g6U7HWQpR1E/Sez36K558NI/AAAAAAAAACU/csGrRTlRZc4/s320/GEDC0137.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5326905038004154578" border="0" /></a><br />My youngest is having a pool party for his 7th b-day. I find this hard to believe but I do not own one single stamp with a pool theme. (might have to order some from the SU occassions mini). Anyways so I reached for the old reliable and cut this from the Cricut cartridge Life's a beach. I had some extra blue plastic film from the kids Easter baskets and voila! I did not have time to do fancy layering. In the photo you will notice I found another use for toilet paper.STAMPIN4TKhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03809366334394178691noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8663806600490892372.post-45591045191395256212009-04-15T19:29:00.000-07:002009-04-15T19:38:12.548-07:00CCC3 - AN EGGSELLENT CHALLENGE<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_g6U7HWQpR1E/SeaZhD4n5cI/AAAAAAAAACM/C-q11wZFa0M/s1600-h/GEDC0135.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_g6U7HWQpR1E/SeaZhD4n5cI/AAAAAAAAACM/C-q11wZFa0M/s320/GEDC0135.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5325112402669725122" border="0" /></a><br />This is my egg for the crafty critter challenge. The challenge was to color egg with craft items. I did my favorite technique -embossing. The egg was stamped with the flower from baroque motifs with a versamark pad emobossed with white powder and sponged with brocade blue ink. It needed a little bling so i added little rhinestones to the middle of each flower. Two things to remember when embossing an egg. 1)It takes much longer to emboss (must not absorb or something like paper) 2)the egg gets stinken hot! It is also hard to hold the egg and emboss and i think I might have 2nd degree burns on one of my fingers. So be careful when you emboss on eggs. Otherwise I am pleased with the results. I may have to use SU ink next year on my eggs and skip buying a egg coloring kit.STAMPIN4TKhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03809366334394178691noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8663806600490892372.post-66908829726495682762009-04-08T19:45:00.000-07:002009-04-08T19:50:59.166-07:00Faux Leather<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_g6U7HWQpR1E/Sd1iDehCgOI/AAAAAAAAACE/Q3Vd2FrK85s/s1600-h/GEDC0134.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_g6U7HWQpR1E/Sd1iDehCgOI/AAAAAAAAACE/Q3Vd2FrK85s/s320/GEDC0134.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5322518146492563682" border="0" /></a><br />This is for a demo swap that I participate in monthly. This month we needed to make a collage style card. I must admit this was really hard for me to come up with an idea. Anyways, I used a faux leather technique using masking tape and the new SU sense of time stamp set. I embossed with clear powder and this is the results.STAMPIN4TKhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03809366334394178691noreply@blogger.com6
