Surprise Surprise!!

Well, look who’s back!
Hi folks!  It’s been a couple of years since I posted here.  
I haven’t been doing much in my craft room for a while.  I got into quilting, which I enjoyed, but now I’m back to paper crafting.

Here’s some favours that I made for my granddaughters recent baby shower....I’m excited to meet my first Greatgrandson in May.


The shower theme was *bears & books*
Inside was a little bag containing bear paw cookies.

Thanks for looking!
Have a great day!

Thank you Card

Hello out there in cyber space!

Here's my latest card. 

I saw this on a card making group, & thought it was very cute.  It was very easy to make.  I made a matching envelope too.



This is the inside.

Thanks for visiting!

Twist & Pop-Up Card

Hi Friends,
Hope everyone is well.
  
Here in Alberta we have been in a deep freeze lately with temperatures of around -40 with wind chill.  Needless to say it's a good time to enjoy scrapping in your jammies where it's nice and warm.  It is supposed to *warm* up soon....that's if you call zero warm!  After what we've had, it will feel almost spring like!

My latest card is one that I've seen on Pinterest, but never tried till now.  It looks difficult, but it isn't.....thanks to all the tutorials you can find on Youtube.   Here is my version of a Twist & Pop-Up Card.



The papers I used are *Authentique Genuine Collection* 6x6 pad.
Lots of denim & navy with a little bit of mustard.
The die is *Colchester Houses* from Poppy Stamps.

I have also been working on something else...a rag quilt.  I'll share that with you on my next post.

Thanks for stopping by today!

*Red Sky at Night*

Hello!
Hope you are all having a good day.

Unfortunately I'm sick with a *flu bug* at the moment, some days have been worse then others, but I managed to get into my craft room on one of the *good* days and this is the card I made.

Hope you like it.


My inspiration came from this photo that I came across of a beautiful Alberta sunset.


Thanks a lot for taking the time to visit.
Bye for now!

Serenity!

Good afternoon to all my visitors!

I love *scene* cards, and Ive been watching tons of videos lately, hoping to learn how to do them.....and it seems to me that really, anything goes!
So I decided to just go for it!

Here's what I came up with.


First I stamped the trees, then without re-inking the stamp I stamped again to make it look as if there are trees in the background.  Then I added the mask for the moon, using a post-it note.  Next, I sponged on the colours, using light blue, denim blue and lavender. Then came the die cut deer and the sentiment, both popped up on dimensionals.  Lastly, I layered with black & pink and added it to a black card.  
The finished card measures approx. 5.25" x 6".



Thanks for popping in today, hope you like what you've seen and I hope you have a *lovely rest of your day*!

Hello Friends!
Hope you are all feeling good today.

I have a new card to show you.   It is a stacked die cut card by Jennifer Mcguire.  I followed Jennifer's video tutorial which you can find here.


I didn't have the same die as Jennifer used, but I think it turned out quite well with this one.  

If you look closely you can see the shimmer on the words, I used *Wink of Stella*


Here you can see how the die cut words are layered.

Thanks for dropping by today!
