Furever Friends!
Friendship is a delicate thing to mesh.....through the years you come to find out how easily pleased you are.I am the type who likes an upfront honest relationship.I like it when someone can just say it without fear and with kindness and who can accept that back with laughter.I have a friend who is very much gentle yet forthright.And through time she has become a very dear friend.Through the years i have had friendships that consisted of goofiness,laughter,and great times and even if we do not see each other due to distance etc they are full of fond memories.And i do love my friends and try not to take them for granted.
I have had friends right there with each other through thick and thin( and i mean thick cause i am most definitely not thin) and sometimes we were an odd couple.And even our husbands are friends we will be forever friends with.These are wonderful growing relationships.My most growing relationship has been with God and this more with time. And with time i grow in a knowledgeable way.
I colored these cuties with wcolor Tombow markers, using distilled water,a paintbrush,and 90lb frosted hot press wcolor paper .I inked it up using black staz-On ink.I used my lighting coming in from the right side.This is another of Kraftin Kimmies's first release. This stamp is named Roxy and Bernice. I am trying to use stamps that have recieved great review but that I have no cards of.So I will have 2 more for you that are of KK's Stamps.
Dog-Gone Cute!!
This is an image by Crissy and isn,t he sooo sweet this is a card for a niece who celebrates her 9th birthday tomorrow. Isn't she sweet.I had so much fun making this card.My Niece loves furry things so i hope she will like this cutie. And so happy birthday to my niece!!
And so i watercolored this image with tombow markers using 90Lb hot press watercolor paper.I also used Bazill cardstock for the base and the patterned paper is bobunny and that small strip coming across is We R Memory Keepers.The flowers are Bazill.and everything you see her i got from The TownScrapper located here in Petrolia.Today The Townscrapper is Open extended hours till 5 pm.And my special is Buy One Get A second for equal or lesser value of 50% off!!
On the flower i used stickles and glossy accents for the center.I stamped the center twice and cut it out and layed it down so it looked 3'D.The collar has stickles on it as well as the heart has glossy accents also.
Ok Well have a Great Weekend!!Make sure to stop in and get some of these Kraftin Kimmie stamps.

Whiff of Joy is known for their awesome stamps but have you see her latest artist here is a card i made using Tombows. Now i did really Looove this sweetie and within the 1st couple of days of them coming in they really sold fast.I had all of her newest images except for one and people were driving in just for these sweeties.Inside of this card i used an all time favorite sentiment "I played my best for him pa rum pa pum pum" and i love this cards turned out.
These are in with the whiff of Joy mouse that i also only have 3 styles of in. I added some primas,sparkly brads and some scrap Bobunny paper and of course bazill Cardstock.And i decided to use my nestabillities with the most awesome embossing $10 pad (best ever) that i bought from scribbles and scraps.Gotta say when something is good its good and i am sure for those of you that have one you would most definitely agree.And of course i used my smooches where i could ...these are fantastic for accenting.And oh my goodness NO stickles but oh boy i had the itch for bling.
AnyHoo
Have a Happy-ThanksGiving to you from the States.
And have a GREAT day,

Happy Birthday !!!
This a card i made with a birthday thought in mind.Everything used on this card is older however the paper is new as of last thursday and i cannot believe this but it has flown off the shelf.This company is called "We R Memory Keepers" and i love this line its absolutely one of my faves.
I used an old technique that i haven't used in a while and thats watercolor markers(tombows),a #2 paintbrush,and distilled water. Of course i used the 140Lb wc paper to stamp on with black Staz-on.

Then i pulled out my sizzix dual heart die, and put it through my cuttlebug then i used my cuttlebug swiss dot folder.The cardstock is a red wine bling Bazill. I pulled out my scrap green cardstock and edge distressed all the edges and i love this technique.
For embellishments the flowers are from my stash,the brads are Spare Parts by The Paper Studio.Later i added Glossy Accents to the hearts to give it demension and sticles for the bowin hair,wings ,socks,and on the yellow on her dress.

If this doesn't work out as a birthday card perhaps i can give it as a christmas or valentine card.Its a simple card yet it took me till 2 am to put it together.

Sparkly & Bright
I had this one done for awhile and since my kiddos have been sick i have done a bit of coloring. The only day i was truly open last week was Friday( didn't want anyone sick) so it actually gave me sometime to put the cards together.You ever do that have the image together for a while before you actually get it put onto a card well elijah and i stayed home from church tonight he has a wicked coupy cough so before my week gets busy here is my post.
This is a november christmas pixie by CC Designs and with my special it has been flying off the shelves but without it does well no matter what because who doesn't enjoy CC Designs. I know i LOOOOOVE them!!

I downloaded this cute ornament template off of someone's website and was amazed at how awesome and simple it was to make this card.
I watercolored the pixie trying to shade bringing the light on her hair and your right side.She was lots of fun.I embossed the ornament using my Cuttlebug and Cuttlebug Swirls Divine Folder only on one side so i can write on the inside.I added stickles and rhinestones to the image and card.
Have a GREAT day,
God Bless,

Another Friday Challenge
Another friday challenge from our Humble Pie DiVA Kim B.Well i wasn't going to go to my event in Sarnia....My kids being sick has really worn me out.This flubug thats going around is a doozy. AnyHoo....i did and i was amazed by the awesome response to the Humble Pie stamps.And the people were so excited about me being there that they have asked me back for next year!!So here is the challenge.Thanks Kim it was fun.I used my Copics because i printed the image off but i found out from another tricia that you can in fact wcolor with prismas without much fail so i cannot wait to try it.
Now i gave my corner rounder to an EA to keep. I kept thinking i hadn't used it in awhile and i probably didn't need it and she was doing it by hand ick.....So i did mine by hand as if you can't tell but i am about to buy one for myself AGAIN!!

Well look at the inconsistency in my corners ...i am so proud...nahh but i did enjoy making this card.For one thing i LOOOOOVE the stamp but for another the challenge was awesome!!Thanks Kim.
I lent out my quikutz christmas lights but if i had them at the time i would have done a string of lights straight across!!As soon as these stamps arrive i will let you all know!!
