Christmas

Had a really great Christmas this year. My daughter Stefanie and her family were home for Christmas this year from Texas.  We always have Christmas eve with Jeff's side of the family at Nicole's house and Christmas at my house.  It was such a good year.  I got some really nice gifts from my family, a big shot from my hubby and a michaels gift card from Chad and Rhonda, a cato gift card from Nicole and Jon and kids, a bathrobe, pjs, and a shirt from Stefanie and Rene and kids, and a bath set from Michelle and Brian and kids plus a lunch date on her. Hope everyone had as nice of holiday as I did.

Thank you card

I made this card using SU plain papers.  The butterflies were cut from a scrap piece of paper..  The stamps are SU.  The floweres are Prima and Recollections(sprayd with coral reef glimmer mist).  It looks pink in the picture but it isn't.

Altered tin

I altered a small lunch box tin using patterened paper from paper pizazz.  I used flowered on top and on bottom I used the stripe.  I added pearl spray from Hobby Lobby and the flowers and butterfly were from Michaels.  This is for my grandaughter Briann's room.

Altered Paint Can

This is the paint can I altered for my grandaughter Carlie..I used paper from Paper Studios, flowers from Petaloo flora doodles.  The ribbon is from my stash..I used a pearl swirl from Say it With Crystals.  I thought it turned out rather cute.  Her room is the same color green as in the paper.

Altered Paint Can

I out did myelf on this one.  I am so pleased with the way this turned out.  Both my grandaughters loved this can and want one like it.  I started with  plain paint can from Home Depot.  I covered it with two sided paper from Chatterbox.  I added a wide light aqua ribbon from JoAnns Fabrics and a bow.  I then added the pearl swirl from Hobby Lobby and flowers from Prima.  I sprayed the flowes with glimmer mist to get the turq. color and then sprayed them with pearl glimmer mist.  I added a turq. rhinestone brad to the center of the flowers..  The lid I did with the sdame paper and flowers and added pearl rope around the inside of the lid.

Altered Clipboard

1. This month has gone by really fast.  I can't believe in two weeks Michelle and I and the kids will be going to Texas  We are so looking forward to it.  Tuesday AI had lunch with a good friend in Lafayette.  I swo enjoy her company.  We had a good time.  Anyway while Jeff was helping David with his boat I whipped up this clipboard for a good friend who has been having medical difficulities lately and I wanted to cheer her up.
2. I covered the clipboard with a patterened papaer from My Mind's Eye and added SU paper at he bottom using a Martha Stewart Border punch-Lattice.
3. I cut a piece of corkboard and asdhered it to the board for notes.  he shopping list is from Michaels.
4. I cut her initial out with the cricut using the storybook cartridge and SU Dust Durango paper.  Flower is a APrima.  Hope she likes it.

Altered Tin

While the guys were off racing I altered this tin.  The paper is from DCWV and the ribbon is from Walmart.  The flowers are Prima spritzed with Caribbean Blue glimmer mist/  The lace bow is from my stash as is the pearl stick pin and the string of pearls.  The small turq. flowers are also prima.

Thank You

Thank you for the comment on the cards.  I haven't given up on my crafts.  I ve been using the stuff I already have, not buying more.  Trying to get some used up.

New cards

I have finally gotten some cards made.

Some of them are Father's Day and some are birthday. 

 Also did a couple of thinking of you cards. With all the rain

we have had there was plenty of time to create. 

winter blahhs

It has been awhile since I have posted.  I guess you could say I have had the winter blahs.  I don't like getting out in the cold that much, it chills me to the bone. Any way just wanted to let people know I'm still alive and well.  Looking forward to spring and summer.
