Hmmm Am I Blue?

Blue seems to be my color lately....LOL. I dunno what this needs, but it is needing something...any ideas? I have been wanting to play with making some glittery backgrounds, so that is how this card started. I also wanted to use some of the Borders I got from TAC...geesh they are easy to use!! I have some other goodies I have been playing with, so hopefully I can finish them and show um off....

I have come across a couple of cool Blog Candy offers....check out Anki's Blog, she has some adorable things, although some is not available in the US, it is sure fun to look! Another one is HERE...Michelle's Blog is adorable, and I love all of her donkeys....Donkeys are close to Cows, yes? Both so stinkin' Sweet!! Anyhoooooooo....


Hope to see you all again, soon!

Day 2...still alive...


I have been spending LOTS of time at the Card Making Table the past couple of days. No smoking for 2 days, and I a proud of myself!! Here is one I made this morning with some of my Birthday Stamps....Inkadinkado's Birthday Cupcake. I originally wanted to use the Large Cupcake, but thought the trio done as a "border" looked better. I have fallen in LOVE with stickles....why would i wanna ever use glue and glitter again? Hahaha

Last week I won 2 blog candies, and they have both arrived! WOW, it was like Christmas! Thanks so much to Suzanne and Nicola...I have a lot of wonderful new goodies to play with this week!! I will do a Blog Candy when I make it to my first 1000 hits...I am already collecting some goodies to give away. I love when that happens...hehehe! I hope you are all having a great weekend, I know mine is going slowly, but then I know why, too....

See you all tomorrow.

I am feeling Spooky....



This is my first day with NO CIGARETTES...arrgh. So far, so good, say your prayers for me, I sure am sending them up! Anyhoooo....to fit in with my wonderful mood, hehehehe, I thought I'd pull out my favorite little Witchypoo. I water colored her, and it seems the sunlight kinda drown out her green face... I used purple ink on my CuttleBug Folder to get the background. This card will go to my partners in a Halloween Swap...I am in 3 of them, so dunno which one, YET...LOL. Well, I have to get away from the puter, as this is my main smoking spot, I have to avoid it today...FOR SURE!! You all have a fabby day, and see you later!

A couple of sketches

These were made for a Sketch Swap on one of my Yahoo Groups. I love these papers, they look like denim IRL. The Flowers in the corners ARE Denim material with pink Brads holding them together. I used a Chipboard Tag covered with patterened paper for the sentiment. I hope my Partners like them, I think they turned out kinda cute.


This next Card was made for a Fall Card Swap. I have so many Leaf Stamps, but I came upon this cool paper, and decided to ust it instead. I am not sure where I found the sketch, but I really like how it turned out. The corner circle really makes it different...
I hope you are all having a FABBY week! I have some more ideas brewing, so I will be back soon.

I am a year older....

And I hope WISER, too...hehehe! Yesterday was my Birthday, and it was great! Had a nice dinner with friends and family, and lots of laughs. This is a card I made with some of my new stamps....yeah, I scored!!

I have always loved this little Changito Monkey, so I was thrilled when I got him. I got some Cupcake stamps, a couple new Cuttlebug Embossing folders, Ribbons, and lots of paper. AND I won 2 blog candy in over the weekend. One last week at Scrap Biz, and one today at Gorillamama Greats...Oh the wonderful LUCK!! It is more like Christmas in September, than my little ol' birthday....hehehe.


I did some ATCs for a swap the other day that I think turned out kinda cute. I have a MAJOR LOVE for cows, so this one was an easy one for me!
Have a Fabby Humpday and I hope to see you all tomorrow!!
