I haven't been on in such a long time that I had to actually had to look up my password to get on. That is how busy with school I am and probably had to push that cell out of the way for a test question or something. Anyways, I made this card for my grandmother for Thanksgiving.

A Keepsake Treasure for You!

I decided to work on my future sister-in-law's card. They're theme for the wedding is this gold like sunflowers and mostly navy and other shades of rich blues. Fall wedding....cool date too. (9-10-11). Anyways, we got on the subject of Something old and something new, something borrowed and something blue. She did tell me her items and one of them was the six pense. I let her borrow mine, and that was old and then my mother in-law gave her a 2011 penny to add as her something new along with her dress. Which made me come up with the idea of a card. I did make this one for her. I have a penny with the year that she was born (1960) and then this years penny (2011). Well that just left the blue. I decided to put a lot of blue in the card.

Is it Hot Outside???

OMG! I was dying when I was looking at Dawn's blog. She had this cartoon. I am still laughing over it. This pretty much sums it up in a corn husk!

Thanks Gram!

I just made this little cutey for my Grandmother. She has been a god send to let me use her car until I get a new one mine died last week in a crash..... Believe it or not she is 92 years old and hasn't driven in a year or so but still has the car and maintains it and puts gas, cleans it starts it up once a week to see if it runs and believe it still pays the insurance on it. My Mom almost had her convinced that she wants her to give it up and boom I have my accident and now I am using it. I just love her. Thanks gram.

Wishing you Loads of happiness

My nephew is moving to San Diego in a few weeks and his father is throwing a little going away picnic for him. I made him this card and gave him a gift bag filled with candy, chocolate, chips, slim jims, capri sun drinks and some other junk for eats on the way out there....They are driving. That should keep them busy for a while. I hope that he has a safe fun trip. Best of luck my friend.

This is another card that I made with the new papers from Anna Griffin. Very cool kinda retro papers. I really like the Embellies too. Here is a very simple what ever card. I am using it for a simple Thank you card.

The Hubs had surgery on his neck and was laid up for a while. We borrowed a small refrigerator from a friend and I thought that this would be nice for her. Thanks Joyce for all your help.

Meow! Meow, to You!

It's someones Birthday....
Jenn Shurkus's Cat...Mr. Harley.

Have a Happy Birthday Kitty!

I just received some new papers and stickers, embellishments, bling, and ribbon and thought that I would make some new cards. I was looking over the products and My cat has been like WALLPAPER and when I came across Jenn's blog and saw Mr. Harley. Maybe in some deep thought that maybe my skitty cat wants me to make this card. A secret admirer of sorts. Mr. Harley is Handsome and My cat Simone...aka- Skitty cat. is so beautiful. maybe they could have a cyber date....Funny huh. Well anyways.

Happy Birthday Mr. Harley from Simone

Here's to Good Friends

I had a great surprise this weekend. As you know that I had to spend my Birthday at work, working a double in that god awful blizzard "Bernard" that dropped 28-36" of snow in places. Not a very good week at our house with snow, pain- in the neck, and boredom....Anyways, My BFF/sister Eileen had me and the Hubs over for a Bday dinner and she surprised me....Another friend from my past that faded out and is now back....Love you Glenn. Miss you and I have to say did we laugh and have a great time. Hats off to you Eileen for pulling one over on me. Good job planning.

I love you!

I wasn't sure how this one was going to come out and I have to say that It came out awesome. Still having issues to how my camera shoots to a flat object. A work in progress. I did a couple of different techniques here. I wanted to make a peice of wood like out of paper. which of course looks totally different here that the real thing. Anyways, I took a piece of paper, and swiped it with brown dauber and let dry, then swipe again with white school glue- let dry and then over it again with a white dauber ( happen to grab the wrong one which was a pearl. and had to touch it up with the brown again. to hide some of that shimmer Happy accident I guess). Then I could die cut it.

Happy Anniversary!

I was blog hopping and I came across this layout...well not exactly. I found a similair butterfly called the Artists Butterfly and it was on the Hero Arts blog. I just love this card. I had to copy it I used the butterfly that I had which is butterflies 3 images. I tried to do the feathering technique here but with my camera it doesn't show the feather. Just where they end. It really is blended quite nicely. It kind of look choppy here. I am going to give this card to my In-Laws. They have been married 59 years tomorrow. Congrats you two! Many more! I will work on the blending and the camera thing.
