Eye candy

Whew, lotta posts, I just wanted to have some eye candy on the top. The one card you have seen before, I just wanted to show how different things can be with a different setting. Another "photo shoot" my sister and I had.

An award, an award







Wow, can you believe it, a talented lady, whose blog I like to visit was kind enough to give me this award. You can find her blog at Sarastamper , go check her out.



I didn't know what to do with the award or what not so I kinda blew her off for a bit (sorry Sara), then I figured I would grab the bull by it's horns and email and ask, this is what you do, just click on the award and save to your pictures and then do a regular post. Now I believe that I am to pass this on to 5 other people. Let's give it a whirl. Head on over to check out these ladies, yes it is kinda chain mailish, but it makes a person (me, anyways) feel good to receive. These virtual strangers enjoy your creations enough to do this. If it's your thing, it's you thing, if not c'est la vie.

Spiderman invitations


My son is turning 4 in a few weeks and like every other little boy he's in love with Spider man, so we will be having a Spidey party. I am making the invitations with paper and stickers, I don't have enough of the same Spidey stickers so they will all be a little different. I don't know if It's a faux pas but some of the invites are going to little girls so I am feminizing them (poor spidey with glitter-he-he). I will post some of those another day.
The colours I choose were brilliant blue, real red and whisper white, so those are what I used for paper, ink, etc. I have a little spider web stamp that I used and the stickers are from Sandylion, I bought them at Dollarama. I printed the swing on by off the computer with Spinstee font.

Lately I have been trying to come up with some designs for swap cards and I have a serious block, if I sit down and just craft things are ok, but the fact that I am trying to come up with the perfect design is driving me nutso, and I can't. I made this card awhile ago and just had it sitting on my desk when my sister seen and said I should post. I was going to make this card for swapping at regionals but I don't have any silver hodge podge and you have to use only current material for regional swaps so back to the drawing board

All supplies SU

Bottom base is not quite navy, then a strip of Urban Garden DSP.

The other base is kiwi kiss, baja breeze mat, not quite navy mat. I then stamped the image from pocket silhouettes in baja breeze and not quite navy. A little pewter paper clip from hodge podge and a little bit of whisper white ribbon to finish it off.
