Cowgirl Marci

This card was made from one of the stamps I got for my birthday: Cowgirl Marci by Lala Land Crafts. I'm so in love with her boots! lol
I used copics for her skin and prisma colored pencils for the rest. Enoy!

Sons & "The Right Girl"

My husband sent this to me today. It reminded us of our 17 year old son and his struggle with "finding the right girl" and being "normal" I'm so glad I have something to say to him now that will mean a lot to him and his future wife & family.

Cupcake Stands

Aren't these darling?!? They are little cupcake stands that I made from cardstock using my nestabilities in my cuttlebug and by using my Scor-Buddy to score the lines for the column. i used just a little scalloped punch for the bottom and I used liquid pearls in white for the scallops on the top. The cake is a Hostess Ding-Dong with a little silk flower stuck in it. I loved how these came out and they are uber easy & quick to make!


Jessica's Card...

Today's card features Tilda with Balloon!
I used copics to color her skin & prisma colored pencils to color the rest of her.
Enjoy!

Wow..

I can't believe that it's been almost 3 months since I've posted anything on my blog! I'm so sorry! The holidays got really busy for me and I neglected doing several things I love so that I could make sure to get everything done in time for Christmas! On top of that, I lost my camera cord, so I didn't take pictures either! I WILL start crafting again soon! I have plans to have a crafting party toward the end of February, so I'm planning that and I will post pictures as I make the items we'll be making at this party. Please, STAY TUNED! Don't count me out just yet! I'll be back soon!!!

Halloween Wreath

Happy Halloween Wreath!
Here's the wreath I promised. It might not look like much, but I hand tied each little piece of tulle onto it and it took a whole roll! I LOVE tulle! Actually, the more I look at it, the cuter I think it is! Enjoy!
Have a great week-end!

Tip Junkie handmade projects 

EDITED TO ADD:
I used a brass metal circle thing used for sewing to tie the tulle around. You can get them at any craft store, but I think I got mine on sale at JoAnns for like a quarter or something. :) Hope this helps!

This crazy life of mine

Hello to those of you who are still connected to and reading my greatly lacking blog! I apologize that it's been so long since I've done anything and that my posts are so far apart! I've been dealing with a lot of things lately, from a teenager who doesn't seem motivated to even brush his teeth to the brutal death of one of my favorite cousins to the surgery to break up my ever loving kidney stones (I like to tell people that "my rock band is getting liposuction" lol <--That's happening on Thursday!). I have made a few cards lately, but photographing them hasn't happened. I've been doing it more as a requested job rather than a fun hobby. My mind has just been elsewhere. With that being said, I've made a decision about my blog. No, I'm not going to quit it! I'm just going to change it up! I've been wanting to make things other than cards, so I'm going to start posting all my crafting and baking and computer generated works and other things about my life here. I hope that sounds ok to all of you!

So let me tell you what you'll be seeing next:
I'm working on a Halloween wreath right now and it's soooo cute! I'm hoping to get it finished later this week, since I'll be sitting around for a couple of days healing. I can't wait to post the photographs of the finished product! It's going to be awesome!

Thank you for stopping in today! May the rest of your week be blessed!
Blessings!
