Secrets

I have no cards to share since I haven't stamped in I don't know how long, but I do have a picture of my dogs new friend. We don't know her name so we just call her Horsey. I'm scared to death of horses, but this one I adore. She is the sweetest, friendliest horse I've ever met. She whinnies if we're outside so we go to the fence and pet her. Some day we'll learn her name or maybe Digger will let us in on their secrets!

Been dealing with lots of personal stuff lately, but hope to stamp again soon. Please don't give up on me :)

Birthday Wishes

It's been nearly two months since I posted and thought I better put something new up before blogger kicks me out for inactivity. I haven't really had the time or inspiration to stamp lately. I'm hoping with the new TAC catty coming out soon I'll feel the stamping love again.

I hope you all are having a wonderful start to the summer! Be on the look out for the new TAC catalog coming soon! If you would like one you know where to find me.

Oh and for all the lucky Angels able to attend seminar this year, I hope you are having a stamp-tacular time!!!

Mom and Dad's Day

Mother's Day is this Sunday, and Father's Day is just a month away. Can you believe it's nearly summer? Five more weeks of school and the kiddos will be on summer break. Seems like I just packed up the Christmas decorations. Where does the time go?

I hope all you Mom's out there have a great day celebrating with your children. I'm looking forward to breakfast in bed with a huge bowl of Cheerios swimming in milk, semi toasted english muffins and a slab of rock hard butter sitting on top again this year!

Thinking of You

Happy Monday. Here's my latest creation for Mom's Day cards. I haven't really been in the mood to color so this is more about the felt flowers. Today I learned that you can use a hole punch on felt. I never knew this before and wasn't sure if it was going to shred the felt or get suck in the punch. It work beautifully! When I add ribbon to flowers like this I would much rather tie it through the flower rather than glue it on. That way I know it wont come off, and I feel like I can get a better looking knot that way. I'm still a little unsure about the placement of the leaves, but it's too late now. Everything is already glued down.

Thanks for looking and have a great week!

Card

I couldn't figure out what to title this post so, I went with the obvious. Card. After all, that's what it is. LOL! It took me a couple of days and some assistance from my sister to get this right. She thought it should have been oriented the other way, but I liked it this way. This is a cute TAC set, but I cannot remember the name of it. (if you know, feel free to post a comment) After I colored the image there was too much white space that I wasn't sure what to do with so, I used my puffer thingy that you put a marker in. It forces air through the marker and you get those little colored speckles. I must be getting old because I can't remember the official name of the puffer thingy either! Anyway, thanks for looking today and I hope you all had a great weekend.

TGIF

Happy Friday everyone! Today I get to pick my son up from a week at Science Camp and I'm so excited to have him home. I got to see him last night and he looked so exhausted! Most things he enjoyed some, not-so-much. I know this has nothing to do with the card I've posted. I just wanted to share.

I made this card a while ago and was going to submit it for a TAC contest. Now that I've looked at it again, it's not contest worthy. Isn't it funny how you make a card sometimes and think it's spectacular then when you look at it again, it's not that great? I have lots of cards like that.

I hope you all have a fantastic weekend and thanks for looking!

More of that cute bear

I started this card earlier in the week, and just now finished. I love this little bear. I Copic'd him on craft card stock and he was a little too dark, so I went over him with the blender pen and it worked beautifully. The card is much nicer in person. It's a dark and dreary day, so the lighting isn't great, but you get the idea.

I hope you all have a great weekend!
