Reminder Card

Hi Everyone!

I sure have missed the blogging world! Here's something I completed this weekend. I couldn't wait wait to show you all because all though simple ...I really liked the results :)

I made about 50 of these reminders. They measure 3.5" x 4". When I volunteered to make these mini reminders for our church ladies I thought oh I'll be done in no time...wrong! Believe it or not it took me quite a while.

I started by cutting the base cardstock and then stamping the background butterflies. Then using the Big Shot I cut all the butteflies. Finally I put everything together after sponging most of the layers including the butterflies.

Be back soon for more projects :)

Non-Scrap Post (Painting)

Hi Everyone!

Today's post has nothing to do with stamping...but it is my other hobby--- painting! It's actually my first attempt to paint flowers. I need more practice but I think I did pretty good (so I hope LOL) what I normally paint are portraits or stuff I photograph. I pretty much done stuff upon request. So if anyone is intetested in one of my paintings or wants a custom-made painting, please let me know...I can show you more samples because these two are pretty simple compared to other work I've done :)
Hope everyone had a great weekend!

Butterfly Card

Hi Everyone!

Wow! Has this month been busy! Glad to be back into some crafting though. Well, I have created some projects and cleaned my scrap room some (one day I wish I can show you pictures of it) but I haven't posted any pictures of my projects on my blog. So here's this card I made for a card swap we had last weekend.



It's so super simple but I love the way it turned out :) I absolutely love the colors. I started with a standard (4.25" x 5.5") Sahara Sand cardstock. Then using Bliss stamp set, I stamped the right side of the card. Next, using Whisper White cardstock I cut a 3" x 2.5" and punched the top with a spiral punch. Again, I stamped the lower right side using the same stamp and stamped the butterfly in Pacific Point ink. Then I wrapped blue ribbon around the white cardstock and created a bow. The finishing touch was adding the blue button on top of the bow. The finishing touch was to add a 3-D butterfly on top of the blue stamped butterfly and adding pop-ups to the white cardstock to adhere it to the card base :) Hope you all like it!

1st GAB challenge

Hi all!

I'm very excited to participate in this weekly challenge! The first challenge is to create something using the colors Pretty in Pink, Basic Black, and Whisper White.

My card is super simple. I think the ribbon add so much to the card that it doesn't need much more detail...what do you think?

Butterfly Card

Hi Everyone!

Wow, what a month this has been...super busy. Sorry I haven't posted anything in a while but I sure missed blogging! I will be posting more often :)

I made this for my husband's niece. Her friend is having her quinceanera (15th b-day celebration) tomorrow and of course she wanted a special card for her best friend. I'm so glad she asked me to do it! So now I'm sharing it with all you! Hope you like it :)

Smile Page

Hi Everyone! Hope you all had a wonderful New Year's :D
About time I posted something new right? And here it is...this is the first page I've created for my baby girl (who's 4 months already!). All the supplies used are Stampin' Up!. Cameo Coral (ink) is one of my favorite SU! colors :) The silver mist you see on it is a new item of SU! and as you can see its the first time I've used it too...can you see my "perfect mistake" on the bottom left? I over-sprayed it lol oops! You have to be very careful with these spray mist, they tend to leak a lot (learned that).
Hope you like it!
