Love is in the Air.


This card is a test of my new Stampin up embosslits.  They are the little hearts with four different textures on them.  The friendship jar is die cut and covered with CTMH liquid glass.  The stamps are from CTMH.

Sweet Evie 2011


This is the first Scrapbook page I have made not only this year but in a log time.  I am working on my scraproom area which I feel is coming along.  I will post pictures soon.  I have used this picture in the past but I really love it and wanted to use it one more time.  She just looks so sweet is it.  Paper is textured CTMH, CTMH Twill ribbon.  The sugar is from Michael's and the little spout if from my dish soap.  Cascade complete is what I use.

The Little Black Box




These little boxes are from my husbands work.  They have the new keys and a pen for each car they sell but they throw the box out.  I love the boxes so my husband brings me home some every few weeks.  It does have the name of his company on each box so it is a fun challenge to cover each one up.  I used crackle paint on one and card stock on another that I ran thru the Cuttlebug.  If anyone lives close I will give you some boxes.

My Little Helpers-Sakura Pens


Sakura pens have been my little helpers this holiday season to spice up my Christmas cards.  I  used them on the borders and in the veins of my doodled leaves.  The copper star pen from the Jelly Roll ice cream smooth set was perfect to add some bling to my cards.  These three sets along with the Spica from Copic are my favorite pens.  

Christmas Cards from 2011


This year I want to learn how to blog more efficiently and how to upload pictures that are more bloglike. I also want to organize my scraproom and improve my food diet.  These are some CTMH stamps and the bottom border is with my new CTMH ruler.  It has the zigzag holes in the ruler so all you need to do is poke thru the paper.  The best way to make it look like real sewing or floss is to  use two different color pens.  I use Sakura 3D pens.  I use the Souffle going in one direction and then the Glaze in the opposite.  Everyone thought I used thread.  The sides was a zigzag Sizzix border.  I hope to get better at this blogging this year.  Anyone have any tips for learning please send them to me.  Eve
