I am in love....

We are always looking for inspiration

from somewhere.  I watch a lot

of YouTube videos, and one of my

favorites to watch is Jennifer McGuire.

One of the videos that I recently

watched of hers, she used a new

die set from Altenew.

It was love at first site....

Rose Flurries 3D Die Set

This one I simply used cardstock

to cut the flowers out and

the one below I used Kuretake

Watercolors to paint the

paper, then cut the flowers.

I think I will be using these a lot!

This little Peony Cottage from

SVGCuts.com

I made for a friend,

just for fun.

Christmas cards this year

Sending Christmas cards must be 

a dieing tradition these days.

Last year we got a total of 3, WOW

I couldn't believe it.

So I vowed this year that I wasn't going

to send any. However, I decided

to send just a handful to

those that I knew would

appreciate them since they

are hand made.

The paper is from SVGCuts. com

I tweaked it a bit to make it more

personal by adding a sign to 

the door panel with our name on it.

There are red sequins on the tail lights and

some Mid Podge dimensional for the

headlights. A touch of Wink of Stella

on the tree and a star on the top.

I thought they came out pretty cute.

Recent Projects

Life has been hectic for the past several months

and I've not had much time to spend

crafting. But I have finally been able

to get back to it come.

This first one is actually one I did

for shutting my crafting down, and

I think it is one of my favorites.

I love that little rabbit in the wagon!

I had acquire a few new stamps during this

busy time and I was able to finally

crack them out and make use of them.

Got to love those little dogs.

And here is a set that I just acquired with

a Southwest tone.  See the little

squirrel peeking around the pot??

Been busy lately

 I am so loving these stamps

from Art Impressions.....

I can't seem to stop 

myself!

Then I had to remind myself that

I can still just watercolor some

of my other stamps....

More stamps

I can't seem to help myself

when it comes to the

AI stamps.

I ordered a few more and 

began playing.

It allows me to mix and match

with the ones I already have.

This chair reminds me of

my grandparents' front porch.

Good memories.

Playing around..

Since I'm playing with

watercolors lately

I decided to color with them.

This was a quick card one morning, just 

playing around, but

I like the way it came out.

Watercolors and other things

I kept thinking about the gate stamp

and a little kitten in front of it.  I decided

to give it another try and make a card

for a friend.

I am tickled with this one, I thought

it came out real cute.

Then one of the FB pages that

I am a member on issued a

challenge for a summer based card.

This is what I came up with.

Don't you just love that tube lady!
