Chil Lax

Good afternoon, I am sharing a layout I did Sunday from the blog Sketch~N~Scrap. I opened a paper pack that I bought at Ollies because it was $2.99 lol not one I would usually buy. Sunday hubby and I had a great day of relaxing. I went to church that morning we watched some Black History then went out for a ride to get some Ice Cream. I knew I wanted to participate in the challenge and these pictures just completed it all

The title I used from design space not sure which cartridge




this chair was just something in my stash that needed to be used and out lol




and I had the ice cream cone on my desk a few weeks so it needed to go as well

Ballerina

 Good Saturday morning crafters, sun is out and I don't have to work today. I am feeling great going to clean and craft today and just enjoy. Here is a card I made for the fb group Creative Card Angels for a Ballerina 

 A few weeks a go Piper fell and broke two pieces of bone off her knee.One was screwed back in place and the other piece was just removed. She has two other cracks in her knee bone and tore part of a ligament. The surgeon fixed the knee and tightened the ligament a few days ago. No ballet for 2-3 months. Possibly another surgery later this year.

so hopefully my card will be a little joy to this young lady. I used the sketch from Freshly Made Sketches

Happy 5th Birthday

 Good Friday afternoon, quick post before I run out the door for work. We had a birthday card request on the FB group. I love using my cricut and the print and cut is my favorite. The request was bright colors and I pulled out an old never open stack from We R Memory keepers feeling groovy and it is bright in person. I used the sketch from Sketch~N~Scrap

Daddy Dance

Hello here is one of the challenges I completed on FB with the group Sketch~N~Scrap. 

Challenge #6- Create a layout based on Sketch #100 that uses elements that spell the word: HEART. For my example I used: H= heart (chipboad), E= expoxy sticker (heart on top of tag), A= Arrow, R= Red (heart paper), T= Toad. The only rule is you cannot use one element for more then one letter i.e. Red Heart Paper you can use for Hearts OR Red NOT both.

I just love when the kids send me pictures of what is going on. The grand kids had a school dance so Jr and the girls got dressed up real nice.




This toad was in my stash from a few years ago when I was playing with print and cut for Kendrian's class valentine cards







 I even pulled out one of my date stamps to remember it

Celebrate


Good morning, I know it has been awhile since I posted and life has done that for me but here is a quick card I made for my BFF for her BD which is Friday and can you believe it I have it in the mail on time along with the tee shirt. I used Stamps of Life set for the shirt and another stamps of life for the balloons. My lite box doesn't do the color any good at all but the purple paper from stamps of life is really pretty. I used the sketch over at paper play sketch to complete my card.

Love

Good Sunday evening, this is the end to a great day. Church was on point today and that was just what I needed to get me off to the work week. I forgot to post this card the other day. I managed to get all my grand kids cards and gifts done and in the mail on Friday. This was the last one I used Anna Griffin die in my stash from the heart in pink and the love was a cut out a few weeks back on my desk. I made this card with the challenge in mind over at Hiding in my craft room but since I worked Saturday I didn't a chance to link it up but my grand baby will be happy.

God is Always with you

Good morning, I want to share with you one of those cards that I made from a video making the bases of 6x6 stack. I used an old one from Echo Park called for the record. I only have a few sheets left in the stack but I have a lot of bases made so when I need a quick card all I need to add is a sentiment and embellishment and off to the mail it goes. I used the stamp God is for you from Sweet and Sassy for an encouragement card that has gone postal and one of those China dies for he rose at the bottom.

A little Sugar

Good morning, off to a good start sounds like the rain has stopped so time to get up and shake a leg lol. I need to post this real quick since I haven't been keeping up with my blog this week like I should. Here is a simple card using Fab Friday sketch. I tell you I am really enjoying opening up some of this paper pads I have and using them but Lord knows I don't need anymore since it takes forever to get threw one now. This is another old from Fancy Pants Life is Beautiful. I purchased that valentine cupcake die and stamp set and I used it on this card and colored it in with the spectrum noir glitter pens you can't tell but it has a good shine to it. The sentiment is from My favorite things sassitude. 


the inside is from an old CTMH set cupcake is that same valentine set from Michaels

Bird Day

Hello crafters, another quick post here as I am on my way out to work. I watched Mary's video this morning and I knew I had to make a card and try to use my stash with plaids so this is what I came up with. While I was on the treadmill I cut the bird with my explorer machine using the iPad app (love that) I ran the green piece thru a folder I bought from China and my darn glue bottle waste :( but it will dry and I will do a little to it before I drop it in the mail. The stamp is an old one from SP & Company no longer in business so you can see I am using my stash. The paper another old stack from Fancy Pants Life is Beautiful

Layout share

Good afternoon crafters it is Friday and my work day will be starting in a few so I better post real quick and be ready. I used Sketch~N~Scrap sketch for my layout here. I have so many old photos that need to be scraped. I remember when I was in groove books I loved that it had the dates on the photos so this picture was back in  when I was just starting to go hard on my workout and I am still convinced it was the bike that took the weight off for me. I used two paper pads I got at Ollie's Hopscotch y Colorbox and Print Shop Studio Calico from Tues Morning to make the layout. I pulled out a stamp set I bought awhile back from Jaded Blossom Fitness Junkie and called it complete

I like on this print shop paper the words and I highlighted The fact that you can so no excuses at all



This is the doll image on the stamp set and the foot prints and no excuses



When I was at the crop last weekend one of the ladies gave me some papers and my thing is if I get something at a crop to use it then. So I made this quick layout of my grandson with the cute pencils for a project we had did a few yrs back on Usher. She also gave me the ribbon with school on it.



The Too Cool is a stamp from CTMH that was in my box of cut outs and this one was one that didn't get stamped good but I went ahead and used it on this layout with some Tues Morning & Dollar Tree stickers to finish it  out..

Condolences

Good morning, here is another card going out to a FB member  who lost her dad. I used the sketch from Case this Sketch  206. First I ran this linen cardstock through a Anna Griffin embossing folder that my girl friend Shanta told me about from Dollar Tree and it is so beautiful in person then I used the same cardstock in pink to die cut the piece at the bottom. The condolences is a stamp from CTMH


I used another CTMH stamp set for the inside for the sentiment along with another Anna Griffin diecut



I pray it brings her a little comfort in her time of sorrow.
