Hello

Hi Ladies.....boy this has been a busy busy week! I am also trying to get more scrap pages finished and a mini book......so it leaves little time for cards. This week I have only done 2 card challenges....first up is Card Patterns. I used the Junebug collection from Basicgrey. Have a great weekend!

Jane Austin fans

Good afternoon Ladies.....how is everyone this bright hot day? I may be going out of town with hubby for business...not sure yet....I don't like sitting in a car for hours on end...and thats what this would be. Anyway thought I would make a quick post...no cards sorry. But Over the weekend I watched the best movie ever..."Persuasion"....it is a BBC made in 2007 with Sally Hawkins as the lead....Anne Elliot. If you are at all a fan of Jane Austin or not...you will love this movie. Fantastic!! Give it a look see and see for yourself! Have a great rest of the day and I'll be back soon with some cards or even layouts!

Just a note

Hi all....#1 post today. I was not feeling my best on Tuesday and I worked late last night trying to get these finished for today. I have first up my card for 2 Sketches 4 you. I have used the Junebug collection from Basicgrey. On this card I used fragments from Tim Holtz and I alcohol inked them then used a stamp to stamp on the other side and cut a butterfly to layer on top. I also wrapped the edges of the fragments in memory foil for a cool look! I hope you can see the detail .....as always you can click on the pic and it will enlarge. Have a great weekend! I am going to enjoy the day! Having lunch with a friend......be back soon.

The greatest of these .......is love

Hello hello....my post #2 for today. I have my card for the challenge over at Card Patterns......a very simple sketch this week. I used the new papers from Basicgrey....Junebug. And of course a Maya Road sheer. Oh aren't those flowers pretty? They are from Pettaloo. On to the card...I tried to give 2 views so you can see it better...enjoy! As always if you click on the pic it enlarges.

Cosmo Cricket Design Team post 2

Hi all!! I am back....its sooo good to be home but I did have an awesome time seeing my new grandbaby. He is pictured in the upcoming photo box. Anyway......I have decided to try out the Cosmo Cricket Design Team. I just love there papers and embellies! I must say they are one of my favorite companies.......there papers are soooo easy to work with. This is my first actual tryout for any paper company design team so I am really excited. I have a few cards.....I like to think they are my specialty. Then I have a really neat altered photo box. And lastly a layout....my other grandson is featured in this one { the younger boy }. Hope you enjoy! Wish me luck! Oh wanted to mention that the ice cream cone card was one I designed in the cricut design studio. Also the lollypop card was hand cut. Thanks for looking!
