Zoe Celebrates Birthday Card

It was my sister's birthday this weekend and I’ve been dying to use this digi stamp. She’s so perfect for a birthday card. Say hello to Zoe. Isn’t she fun?


I decided to make a bigger card instead of the normal size. This card measures 5.5”x5.5” which was much funnier to play with. I colored her in using Artist Loft pencils and added some Stickles to her bow. I don’t remember the brand of the stamped sentiment but I think it’s from Ditto.
Thanks for stopping by.

My Daughter’s Card Share #1

Happy New year everyone! I can’t believe how fast this past year has gone.
I have a couple of cards my daughter made to share with you.
I love this card! She used The Rockstar Matstack from DCWV, Create A Critter Cricut cartridge for the winged heart  and The Flower Shoppe Cricut cartridge for the roses. She added some Frosted Lace Stickles to the wings and added a black ribbon on the bottom to finish it off.


Next she made an adorable little kitty. For this card she used The Glitter Sweet Matstack from DCWV, the Create A Critter Cricut cartridge and letters from Recollections. On the top of the card she added lace trim to make it this card even sweeter.


She had no help from me making the cards, except for the flowers. Those could be a little tricky. She now has a shelf in my craft room all to herself and it’s filling up quick. I’m glad to see that my love of crafting is passing on to her. Nothing better than a mom and her teenage daughter fighting over workspace. Gotta love it!
Thanks for stopping by.

She’s A Crafter

Earlier this week my daughter asked if she could use my craft supplies to make a gift for a friend. Of course I said yes. Well she went looking through my stuff and found some leftover shop items. So she didn’t make the bookmark but she made the packaging.
If you have teenagers you might have heard of an anime named Hetalia. The characters are all named after countries around the world. So my daughter made a card with the Italian flag for the packaging. According to my daughter her friend is Italy from Hetalia. A custom made package for her friend. Not bad.


Earlier today she asked if she could use my Cricut. She is slowly taking over my craft room. I guess I need to find a work table for her.

Snowman Soup

It was really chilly here in Fresno today and my favorite thing to do on chilly days is to cuddle up on the couch, watch a movie and drink hot chocolate. As I was drinking my hot chocolate it reminded me of Snowman Soup. So I decided to make some.  Unfortunately I had to use two different types of ribbon. I didn’t realize I didn’t have enough of the plaid ribbon. But besides that little mishap I like the way they turned out. Simple and cute!

Christmas Cards #5

This is my last and final Christmas card share. Only because I forgot to take pics of the rest and they’ve been sent out already. Oh well!
Here we have a card that I made for a friends little boy. I thought it would be cute if he received his own card. I used the Create A Critter Cricut cartridge to cut out this adorable little penguin. I added some goggle eyes to give him some quirkiness and if you flick him he wobbles. I played with him for about 10 minutes before I sent him out. I couldn’t help myself.



So there you have it. I hope you have enjoyed my cards and I can’t wait to get started on other projects to share with you all. Thanks for stopping by.

Christmas Cards #4



Happy Saturday everyone. It’s been a good day. I finished my Christmas shopping and now it’s time to start baking. mmm
I have a couple of cards today that I have made using digi stamps from MakeItCrafty.com. I have to say that these cards are my favs so far.
Here we have Fairy Twinkles. Isn’t she cute? I’m not sure if this digi was meant for Christmas or not but she’s so cute I had to use her. I colored her with Artist Loft colored pencils from Michael’s and I’m really beginning to see a difference in my coloring. In a good way that is.  Once again I used last years paper from Recollections Bright and Jolly paper pad. Added some green Stickles and some red bling.




This cutie pie is named Sweet Angel. The name fits doesn’t it? I also colored her with Artist Loft Pencils and used papers from the same paper pack as above. She’s so sweet!


I hope everyone is having a fantastic weekend. See you all soon.
