Layers

Remember what Shrek said about layers?  About how we are all made up of layers..  kind of like an onion..   Crazy Green Ogre.   More like my cards.   I seem to use lots of layers.   I made this card a few days ago for Maria’s Scrap pile Saturday.  I'm finally getting a few minutes to blog a little. I used Scraps of paper and a stamp that I’ve never used before.   Go visit her HERE. She makes the pretties cards and paper projects.
 
This card has several layers.   I’ve really been loving using the Maya Road chipboard.   You can paint and or decorate it to your hearts content.

Products used:    Maya Road – chipboard.  Adirondack paint dauber – Pool.  Ippity – Where You Should Be.   CTMH – Cocoa, Olive.  Shimmerz – Tickle Me Turquoise.  Stickles – Candy Cane, Ice cycles, Lime Green, Ribbon, buttons, twine, nestabilities.

Spring Fever

Here are a few more photo’s from Saturday of My son and his family.     My Grandson was so funny…   There were dozens of Geese in the park and Carter was having a blast chasing them..  I’m surprised they didn’t chase after him… 
He is quite the chatterbox..   and dramatic.   He had me laughing the whole time  and he sure knows how to say cheese when it’s picture time.    Even if he’s not looking at the camera…  Cheese!

Celebrate Color

Guess what I read about over at Moxi Fab World?    Texture + Color = Fun!!    I created a fairly quick and simple card for their Tuesday Trigger challenge. It’s colorful! 

I embossed the Kraft CS with an embossing folder that I bought at Archivers.   Sorry I’m not sure the brand…  I know it’s not Provo Craft.  I rubbed white craft ink over the embossing to make it pop a little then added some Holiday Red ink.



products used:   CTMH Holiday Red, Clover meadow, Kraft, Breeze, Daisy White.  B1345 – Forever In Love.  Emboss folder. Buttons. Twine. Prismacolor pencils. Nestabilities. Tim Holz – Antique photo. Ribbon. Staple.

Enjoy! Create! Simplify!

All about ME

Since it’s my Birthday week, (Thanks to my Family and Friends for all of the Birthday wishes!)  and It’s all about ME, I’m going to post a few more things that I love.     Who am I kidding?  It’s always about ME!  Isn’t that what our blogs are?  We post about things that we love or hate and that are important to us…
 
These are all things around my house, that I love, collect or have created.   I Scrapbook, I make cards, I paint, I collect, I create, I take pictures. I have stuff..  probably too much stuff…  I’m pretty good about getting rid of most of the old stuff.  I don’t like too much clutter..     It’s all just STUFF!   For some reason… we love our STUFF!    Don’t sweat the small stuff..
 

 

 



By the way…  did you notice that I have an Etsy shop?   I’m not sure how it will do…  I listed a couple of things and hope to sell some of my cards in the future..    Link is at the top right.   I bought a 500 ct package of these paper bags.  I finally sewed a bunch of them, created a pattern and I’m now selling them.

Enjoy! Create! Simplify!
