Easter Card 2012

This is a Magnolia stamp I got last year.  Still on of my favs.  I used some 5 for a buck paper from Michaels and seam binding ribbon from Stampin Up.  Copic Markers and some prima flowers.  

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

Feeling Wicked

This is another swap that I made for my CTMH group, Clearly Addicted.  It is the Mischief paper pack and the felt shapes.  Love this time of year.

Thanksgiving Card

This card is the extra one from my CTMH Swap.  I used the Cricut Cartridge from Close To My Heart, Art Philosophy.  This kit came with Stamp sets that match the die cuts.  It is a great way to make masks for your background paper.   I always doodle on my extra one's.  I love curling tendrils.  Used the black sponge brush that came with the distressing kit from CTMH to paint my background leaves.  

A SOTM Card for my friend Beth

I made this with my Granddaughter for my friend Beth.  Evie just loves Beth and wanted to make a card for her, to take home to her house she said.  This has the CTMH stamp of the month for August and some Martha Stewart punches.  Evie helped with some stickers I got her.  

CTMH Wings Paper Pack Evie and Andre

I love Green, even an olive green.  It reminds me of being out in my backyard which I think is beautiful.  I love these pictures from the summer of 2011.  This is the Wings paper pack from Close to my heart.
