RAK !!!

Sorry I've been missing girls :-) Ive been working hours and hours...but will be done the end of January :-). To celebrate I'm giving away a RAK ! It's the new Unity's January stamp kit :-). I can't seem to post pictures today...so go to http://www.unitystampco.com/ to see it ! Just leave me a comment about your favorite Valentine's Day and I'll post a random winner next week. Have a great weekend!! Char

Good morning! Here's a little coffee cup I made that has an opening in the top for your Valentine's treats! I got the template here http://www.stampington.com/html/tempting_template_mug.html. I punched a border and glued it to the inside of the cup with my Martha Stewart punch. The paper is K & Co.

How's you're week going so far? Mines been good :-) Has everyone been looking at all the wonderful sneaks out there? I've looked at a few, and after my long hours at work are over I will have time to peak more :-) what's your favorite so far?

Thanks for stopping by! Your sweet comments mean so much to me :-) Hugs, Char

Where does the time fly?

I know, I've been MIA lately :-). It's just with the business I'm in, the beginning of the year is alot of hours at work :-(. It will hopefully come to an end soon! The bright side is, I'm going to Paradise on Saturday and that always cheers me up!!! I watched the grandkids on Saturday and they are just growing up WAY,WAY to fast!! Anyone know of a way to stop that (HA-HA) !

Here's a few cards to share. This 1st one is made with Fancy Pants paper, and the heart on his hand is ...SURPRISE, a Martha Stewart punch lol!! I added stickles on his arms and legs to dress him up a bit. Caardvarks is having a challenge using red hearts...that's it!! http://caardvarks.blogspot.com/





And this card is made with Basic Grey's (Nook and Pantry) paper, Maya Road chipboard, and a few Martha punches. The writing is Melissa Frances rub-on's.

Sorry the pics are bad...Its raining and I can't seem to take good pics indoors. Anyone have any suggestions?

Hugs, Char

Happy Birthday Destiny

Happy Birthday my sweet daughter!!! WOW 28 today! Love you with all my heart and I hope you have a wonderful Birthday!!! Love, Mom :-)

Good Morning!

It's rainy and cold this morning. A good day to sleep in, but off to work I go :-). It's suppose to rain all week. Mind you, I'm not complaining as we really need the rain! It's still my busy time at work but it will come to and end soon. I went to Paradise this weekend and brought goodies from Paradise Scrapbook Boutique..it was wonderful as always!


Here's a card I made for a 2 sketches 4 you ! It's always fun to play along with these talented ladies and Laura and Kazan have wonderful sketches! I also incorported twigs for CARDS challenge this week. I've used twigs on my cards in the past and it's always such a fun element to bring into a card :-)

And here's a LO I did this weekend to. I love this picture of my son and grandaughter.

Have a wonderful week!!! Hugs, Char

Trigger Tuesday !

This weeks Trigger Tuesday comes from Maren Benedick. Isn't this plate gorgeous! I get into trouble when that Pottery Barn catalog lands in my mailbox :-)..Below is my take on this picture.

I used my Cricut cartridge for the circle base of the card. The dotted paper is Papertrey. I embossed the white cardstock and used a pearl paint dabber on top for glimmer and then used some Old Paper distressed Ink to antique a little. The bird is Heidi Swapp. I also crackled the background of the tag for some added interest. The stamp is papertrey...I so love everything Papertrey (Giggles) !

Have a wonderful week, and thanks for visiting me.

Hugs, Char

Sending you love!

I made this card with Fancy Pants Vintage Valentine paper. I really love this paper. It's so me lol!! And I am officially a "Paper Punch Addict" !!!! I love them and have more then I should! But, then again I have too much of everything my daughter tells me! I'm sure that you will agree with me that we can never have too many scrapbooking supplies. Am I right?

Both paper punches are new and are Martha Stewart. The hearts are Martha Stewart too, and the button is Papertrey.

And this card was made with Fancy Pants Vintage Valentine also. I got the trim from my favorite scrapbook store.....Paradise scrapbook boutique, they have the best selection of trims!!

Have a wonderful weekend! Char
