Kraftin Kimmie Challenge 123-Tag Time

I thought I better get busy and try another challenge.  I recently had some "Happy Mail" delivered and low and behold I had some fun new Kraftin Kimmie's to try. I have the "Going Places" set too.  I think that will be next on my list.  I better get my room back together soon.  It looks as though a twister came in and messed it all up again.  I really wish I could just snap my fingers and everything would just go back into its place.  I stamped "Dandy Lion"on a random white tag and played around with my Tim Holtz inks last night. I made quite the mess. Dandy was also Sparkly Fluffed with the color "sugar", around her hair and dress as well as the dandy lion. The saying came from a stamp at Hobby Lobby.  I just love that saying. Now off to see what I have in the fridge for lunch.

The Greeting Farm Challenge Sketch #9

After some "gentle prodding" from a dear friend (wink*you know who you are) I am entering not one but 2 challenges this week.  It was a lot of fun and hopefully I can do a few of these more often. It worked out well that Spring Break was this week.  So here is my Surfer Anya from The Greeting Farm.

Tiddly Inks Challenge #83 Birthday Bash

My dear sweet friend Rachel hosted a play date with me yesterday ( yes the kids came too!) and we decided to do the Tiddly Inks Birthday Bash Challenge.  I just love Tiddly Inks.  Christy Croll  (the owner and creator of everything Tiddly (I borrowed that line.) is having her birthday bash and celebration coming in April.  Be sure to check out the Tiddly Inks web site and challenge blog. I will practice how to add the link here in a bit.  If that won't work I will have to contact my IT department (hey Rachel, I may be calling you later.)  Have a great rest of the week and I'm going to enjoy the last few days of Spring Break.

Everyone Loves Wryn

So far I am not making my New Year's Resolution to post something once a week but here are 2 Wryn digi's from TiddlyInks. She is adorable. I have almost the entire set and I need to get coloring. I used these cards for birthdays this past month.  Now I need to get cracking on my April cards.  Till later...Happy Spring and Crafting.

Silver Valentine

It feels like forever since I have made a card.  I volunteered to be on my children's PTO (Parent Teacher Organization) this year.  Somehow I am the vice president.  At least we have a wonderful core group of ladies that have been helping, but it still takes a lot of time away from my crafting.  We are starting to organize our 1st carnival for the school in a long time so I hope I will be able to sneak a card in here and there.  I applaud all of the past and present PTO/PTA parents.  Hats off to you and all you do for your kids school.

Now with that being said here is my 1st Valentine card of the season.  I'm sure you all will recognize
"Silver Valentine" from Tiddly Inks digitals.  He is so cute.  Wryn is on my list of what to next so hopefully soon I will post a card with her.  She is so cute too.  Until later.  Happy Crafting.

Miss Anya Garland Gate Fold Card

This is my latest card featuring the Miss Anya Garland collection from The Greeting Farm. I colored her with copics that I cased off of Wendy Ramlakhan's blog.  I would be happy to direct you to her site but I have no idea yet how to do that.  This is a birthday card for my friend Rachel who also has a wonderful blog that I will direct link you to soon. Hopefully by this weekend I can figure out how to do that. 

  I got the paper at Michael's, ribbon at Hobby Lobby and the punch at Archiver's.

Happy New Year!

It's been awhile since I posted last.  Thanksgiving, Christmas and birthdays all seemed to fall together and I did not get much crafting done.  Here are some of my cards that I did last year.  Most of them are from Kraftin Kimmie along with some Greeting Farm.  You might notice a cake in the mix too.  My son's birthday is 3 days after Christmas and this year he wanted a Pirate themed cake.  Since I only had 2 days notice on what he wanted this is the skull and cross bones cake he got. And yes I actually made it.  It's not a cake pan.  It was delicious if I do say so myself.  Thanks for looking at my blog.  One of my resolutions this year is to blog more...maybe once a week?.  Fingers crossed....
