Happy Thanksgiving

It is another great day to be alive. I was telling some of my friends this time of yr is very rough for me. I battle depression and yesterday was my mothers birthday she has been gone but not forgotten at all for 27 yrs. I pulled out old photos and cried and then ate a pint of her favorite ice cream black walnut.

My mother and her brother....who never lets me and my sister know that she is his fav sister maybe because mommy was the baby and he had to watch her....oh how I love to hear the old stories

Miss you mommy

Now I did complete the rest of my simple thanksgiving cards and got them all out in the mail

For those traveling like me I pray for safe journey

Thanksgiving cards

Hey crafters, I started way to late for my Thanksgiving cards and I still want to send out my cards to my family and friends so I thought of the best way I could get them done quickly and that was to use Operation Write Home Sketches. Now these are really simple but again it just helps me to get rid of a little stash. To get my juices flowing so this is the start and hopefully I can finish the rest this week but I only have 12 more to complete and get in the mail.

 Simple right but complete

A little something something

Good morning, I wanted to do a little something nice for my friend Shauntay who just moved into her place. I saw a video by Logan' Crafty Momma and I just fell in love with this cheap idea. I contacted her for the file and she shared it with me and I went straight in my craft room and made two of these cute cheap gifts. I also made Shauntay an embroidery towel along with some more Dollar Tree items for her kitchen. So I showed hubby this cheap cutting board and I told him.....guess what my sister, sister in laws, daughters and daughter in laws are getting for Christmas :D so I made sure I bought plenty of the glass cutters for all of them and some more for friends as well. 

 

 

Then I made a simple card

 

 

I love the cutting board so much I made my sister one to send with her mini album

 

 Until next time

Another Simple Card

Hi crafters, I feel like I am on a roll. I completed another simple card using Sweet Sunday card sketch 197.

 

I really like how this one came out. I used an old My Minds Eye 6x6 stack and that Verve Stamp Forever in Our Heart stamp set. The inside stamp was from Clear Dollar Stamps

Clean and Simple Card

Hello crafters, tonight I wanted to create a card so I used Clean and Simple sketch to make this card.  I love the fact when your mojo is gone and these clean and simple sketches will get your juices flowing.

 

I used the stamp from Stampin up called Too Kind for the flower and I used Stampin up ink

Tangerine Tango and Cajun Craze. The stamp on the front is from Stamps of Life getwell2you set.
The inside stamp is from Verve stamps Forever in Our Hearts. The paper I used is Prima Madeline.

Well that was clean and simple

Have a bless one.

Scrapbook Pajama Party

Last night I participated over at iclassy girl scrapbook pajama party. We did a two page layout from her sketch that Tiara provided and I just love have my page came out. I used DCWV Little Mister and I went in my stash and pulled out buttons, ribbon and my stamps of life onesie die along with the pictures of my grandson Kai.

I didn't get a chance to do the card to the sketch but you should come and join in the fun

My Brave Sister 2

Hello crafters it is Felisa again, well tonight I thought I would make a SIMPLE mini for my sister to add her military pictures in.

 

Sorry about the light but I snapped it at night but I really like how it turned out. I used some ribbon from Hobby Lobby and I used several Lindy sprays to color the lace. I used K & Company for the paper except the cover and inside sheets.

 

I started with this Close to my heart 3 Ring Album

 

I used chipboard from Micheals

 

I painted the edges

 

 

I used a guide to punch my holes with my big bite

 

 

 

 

I got this embellishment from a craft store in Memphis when I had visited my sister

 

Simple right :) I will go back and add mats for my sister just to lay her pictures in since she is not a crafter and I will go back and trim that lace since it isn't even.

 

Well that is it for my simple mini tonight until next time be bless.

 

 

 

 

My Brave Sister

Today is Veterans Day and I want  to take the time to honor all the soldiers who are severing and have served.  My sister Tracey was in the guards for close to 20 yrs and was a Lieu tent and decided it was time to get out to be there for her son. She is my  shehero my hat goes off to her and all she do and have done.

 I used my Cameo to cut the dog tags and the army men.

 I opened up a 12x12 paper pack of Recollection Documented stack for the YOU ARE 

 These pics my sister added on FB so I snagged them

 

 

I will be linking this post to SOC Sistahs/Brothers Bloggers Challenge 45

Spelling Bee Piggy Bank

Hello crafty friends, it is Felisa of The Scrapin Diva. Tonight I am having major techno problems, iPad, laptop and desktop will not cooperate so I am not sure how this is going to work for me tonight but I will shut my best shoot.

My grandson Kendrian has been doing well on his spelling test. I told him every 100 he brings home I and both Papa's and Aunt Kendra will give him a $1 well we are on week three so I thought I better get him a piggy bank. I went to Michael's and purchased this white bank pulled out the Cameo and some vinyl and this is what I came up with.

I have got to buy more blades as you can see some didn't cut out so well but KD loves it. I also noticed one of my dollar signs is upside down. It has got to be the night time cough medicine. I pray this cold go away real soon......

Well that is my quick project for the night as always Be Bless
