My Beautiful Grey Baby Is Back!!!
Hi Everyone!! Holy Moly I'm so lost without my computer...sheesh... I was calling every five hours to get it back, so four days later I have my computer back in my sausage fingers whoo hoo...So this was my card for the relay race, that is now canceled..but this is Charlotte and she reminded me of a 70's/80's girl so I used one sheet of my new but old Basic Grey DP called (Cupcake)..meaning I just bought it at CHA but it came out a long time ago :0..... I also used my new glittery flowers from Petaloo called Flora Doodles. I also stuck coordinating dew drops in the middle..this sketch is from Just Magnolia..the ribbon is from SU....I'm so excited to post today so I hope everyone is around..I have to leave home again so hopefully tonight I can put my very awesome DT symbol on my blog..yay! O and I want to tell you that this Saturday my parents are moving in so wish us luck LOL! :)...
Thank You!! Come Again!!!

Hi Everyone!

So Much To Show You!!
Hi Everyone!!! OMGOSH!!! I had so much fun! but holy cow I'm tired! Tim and I walked for 5 1/2 hrs! and I was so tired by the time we were done... and ya know what? I'm still so tired, so I'm probably going to go to bed here pretty soon.....But I wanted to show you what I bought and tell you a quick story...All the stuff that's on the couch is what I bought at CHA and the cutters are what I have used so much, that they no longer work :( ...well through the SCS forum I heard that Genesis was going to be there at CHA and No not the group the high end paper cutter..LOL! well this paper cutter is supposed to be the best of the best..well let me say it better be for $390.00 and that was the show special..well Tim being the very supportive hubby he is, tells me to buy it if I like it or if I just want it. The lady was demoing the cutter and she let me use it and yep thank goodness I didn't like it LOL! it was the weirdest thing ever! it was really quite weird ..you need to check it out on the website to see what I mean...the cutter itself swings back and forth and the paper holder thingie was metal and it was so funky to place it on your paper...so yay now I have extra money to spend on stamps LOL! BUT purple cow sold me on there paper cutter and it was a show special of $50.00 and they have great customer service so I know if anything goes bad on it they will take care of me..so I'll let you know how it works..
And for Christmas my friend Diana gave me my first starter kit for my ribbon..the company is called The Ribbon Ring and they were also at CHA. they also had a show special so I bought so many of these plastic holders, Ill show you when I get it all organized that's why I posted a picture of my ribbon bin..so remember that mess for the future LOL! So again CHA was a load of fun and I didn't spend to much money but just enough and can you tell from the pictures I went crazy for FLOWERS! I couldn't help myself they were all so beautiful!... OK I'm tired..off to bed for me :) I'll be back tomorrow and everyday this week with a new The Greeting Farm card because this week is the relay week and I want my images LOL! so go grab your freebie image today!....and one more thing ...Thank you Laurel for letting me know about me being featured on Sassy Studio Designs Saturday...this is my second time being featured and it's an awesome compliment so thank you EVERYONE!!!! especially for the CONGRATS! have a good night...

Digital Stamp Oasis!
OK BIG NEWS!!!!! I now design for Digital Stamp Oasis!!!!!! can I hear a whoo hoo!!!!!!! Yay!!!! Happy Dance!!! What exciting news for me...a dream has finally come true hehe... when I have time on Monday I will figure out how to add everyone else who's on the DT along with my pretty new blinkie on the sidebar...but at this time it's 6:45am in LA and I'm trying to get everything done before we head on out to CHA another Whoo Hoo! I read the update on SCS last night and it sounds so exciting and the energy level seems to be high..so I can't wait....I wanted to make a card using one of my new Digital Stamp Oasis image ..this one is called Bestest Buddies..isn't it so cute?! make sure you check out her Etsy store and see what else she has to offer, you won't be disappointed :) All the DP is from DCWV The Pet Stack..Sorry about the picture (again) :( Ya know it looks good in the little viewfinder until I actually post it and then you can tell it's off ugh!..So I swear it doesn't look as funky as this picture shows....I added black hemp around the middle cardstock and the cute paw prints that are on the top corners are from Michael's and the sentiment is actually a sticker from my "stash"but it goes perfect with the image and DP...I hope you have a great weekend! and did I tell you all that I design for Digital Stamp Oasis?! hehehe yep I do......

News!!!
Hi Everyone!!!! It's been pretty cool seeing everyone's creations with my sketch on the CTMH board..so thank you!!!....today's card features an image from Recollections..I love these little robots and they came out with matching paper, so totally fun to put them together..Chiy and I think this is a perfect card for a 5 year old :)...this is my own creation :)....The green brads and paper clip are from Making memories..the alien brad head and ribbon are from my "stash"...pretty easy card but fun...I loved the colors....
OK on to my news...I have asked my parents to move in with us and I finally got my dad to agree..see last year my parents got hit with losing there house of 23 years, my dad lost his construction business and all of his vehicles got repossessed, so they were left with nothing :(..my dad borrowed a lot of money off people and he needs to file for bankruptcy he was also forced to find a job..well he did but his work is a 45 to 60 min drive each way..well he's 60 and tired of the commute..they found a house to rent when they lost there house but it's been a struggle each month. Tim and I talked about this in length and I want a better life for my parents, so we figured if they moved in rent free for 5 months they would have enough money to pay back family, file for bankruptcy and have enough to move nearer to my dad's job. So starting next month Feb 1st we are going to do something we haven't done since I was a teenager and that's live together..O boy! LOL! my MOM is also a SAHW..so we will be together all morning by ourselves..my mom is a quilter, a BIG time quilter she's bringing her sewing machine with her, so when I'm making cards relaxing she will be making quilts..well in NOV it was my birthday and she made me this purse, my favorite food is Sushi :) so now I have my sushi purse and I love it. I have asked her to make me a purse for a blog giveaway and she was excited to do it but I wanted to make it extra special by buying Basic Grey material because everyone knows that they made there paper creations into fabric material right?? :)and that BG is my favorite DP of all time..right? hehe... so now I'm on the hunt for this material specifically. So stay tuned! ..and the other thing is have you seen those purses and flowers that Chick N Scratch (Angie Kennedy) has made?...well I am going to make the purses and I will have my mom make the quilted flowers to also give away! my mom also crochets so I will also ask her to make some of those too! I can't wait to show her the patterns because she will whip those puppies out in a day...so starting middle Feb I will be having blog giveaways maybe every couple of weeks but you will have to stay tuned because there may be challenges involved in winning :) ...hmmm....so sorry for the novel but it should be a fun time with my mom and dad..(I hope) LOL! Thank you for reading this if you got to the end LOL! have a great day!!!

My Sketch Challenge...wanna play?
Hi Everyone!!!! well I tried something new last night and asked the CTMH forum if they wanted to play with a sketch I drew up. I am having so much fun using everyone Else's sketch why not do at least one of my own. So the first card is using nothing but CTMH products and the second card is a mixture of everything..The image is from The Greeting Farm this is Snuggle and another challenge I had was to use stamps that you have had for awhile and haven't used...so I did it! hehe.....The second card: the DP is still using CTMH ..the flowers are from Prima but the white flower and brads are from CTMH....Do you want to play with my sketch too?? I would love it if you would..now I'm claiming this sketch and I will say I came up with it but if you have seen it somewhere else ...know that I haven't :)...so I hope you play....Come back tomorrow for a boy card and some personal news from my home front but it may be a big bonus for my followers ...hmmmm... Have a great day!!!

Waiting For Rain
Hi Everyone!!! thank you for the sweet comments yesterday...Agustina I think it's OK to tell everyone you have big boobs LOL!
Today's card features an image from Paper Makeup Stamps...Ya know everyone knows what I'm talking about when I say I have so many stamps that most aren't even inked up...these stamps by Paper Makeup are part of not being used :( I really need to ink up the one's I haven't used, so that's my goal this month (I just decided) hehe to start inking up the "new" old rubba :)..There are so many stamps I have bought from different companies but I forget about them when I put them away...I'm hoping when I go to CHA that they will have a cool stamp storage system because what I have now isn't working :(....So I'm challenging you to play with me...use the stamps that are old but have never seen ink....if you leave a comment and tell me you did I would love to check out your blog :)...
OK anyways back to the card...this image is altered.. I cut out her wings and the top of the rain that was spilling on the umbrella, I pop dotted her after cutting her out....All the DP and solid cardstock are from SU...the flowers are from Prima...the card base and ribbon are from CTMH...The sentiment is from Just Rite and the pearls came from my "stash"...O and the sketch is from Whiff Of Joy...I hope you like it :)

Cosmopolitan Darlin
Hi Everyone!!! I had time to craft yesterday so I will have cards to post everyday this week :)
Today's card features and image from Sassy Studio Designs and a sketch challenge from Create4fun ...This is I'm Every Woman- Cosmopolitan...isn't she sexy!! I felt she needed red and hot pink..The solid card base is actually a hot pink from SU..the DP is from DCWV (the stack 3)
The reddish/pink flowers are from Prima and the white flowers are from CTMH.....The glass has stickles on it....I also used my dew drops on the corners to give it beautification! LOL! O and in the flowers I used cotton puff balls that I rolled into ink..not the top one though I left that white...I hope you like :) ..have a great day!
Thank You!! Come Again!!!
Mandy
P.S. Gina the ink was just regular re-inkers..I wanted to take pictures to show you how it's done but I have no re inkers LOL! so just stick a couple of drops into a little jar, stick your plain ribbon inside, mush it around and take it out, straighten it out and let it dry...How long you leave it in the jar will determine how dark it will be...does that make any sense??? sorry! I suck as a teacher hehe...

I Love Cherries...Day 11
Hi Everyone!!! it's Tuesday and a new season of Biggest Loser..Yay! ..OK let me clear up something real quick.....it almost seems as if I'm whining in my posts about not getting picked on a DT and that's not how I want to come across at all...I don't feel I have the best artwork out there but it does fit me..so that makes me happy... I will keep trying and yes, the right one will come along.. It does make me excited to think about being on one because I want to be apart of a sharing group...so this year is the year for me to keep trying and not give up :)... but it's kinda funny at the same time because I told Tim I need more colors and he's like well buy them :) and then I tell him I need to improve my coloring and he says it's just paper so pratice... I love that man....so my goal is to go to CHA and buy new products and more markers so hopefully by Feb I can give you a little bit more variety...It's kinda hard because we don't have a local scrapbooking store so everything I buy is on-line or at Michael's ..well that's no fun...I like to oooo and ahhh while touching LOL! so CHA here I come...
To the card this is Day 11 of 12 days of sketch challenges from The Greeting Farm...so one more day and I will have new cards to show you :)....I'm pretty excited already because I was gone for so long in Nov and Dec and to come back with a bang has been the most fun...so I can't thank TGF enough for helping me get back into the groove.....Sheesh I'm a chatterbox today...
This image is another one I can't find on TGF so she's getting rid of them faster then I can shop...so get them while your looking the first time...All The DP is from SU..the solid cardstock is from DCWV and the ribbon is from CTMH...The metal cherries are from my "stash"...I hope you like :) have a great day
Thank you!!! Come Again!!!

Hi Everyone!!! well I didn't win the contest with TGF..so bummer :(....O well... IT WAS SO MUCH FUN THOUGH LOL!!!..so would I do it again? in a heartbeat!....
OK story time: sooo here I am driving with my family in the car and I say gosh darn it I can't get onto a design team...Chiy says Mom your cards are beautiful so don't worry about it. Tim says..why don't you make your own design team? Tim, You have to design your own stamps to start one up and I don't draw.... but I can draw stick figures :) and his response to that was..Hey if that lady can draw stamps that have no heads on them why can't you do stick figures..........OUI you silly man LOL!!! The End :)
OK so this is Day 10 of TGF sketch challenge and I used Hope and Grace ...Laundry..isn't she so cute...All The DP is from CTMH...the buttons on the edges are a mixture between CTMH and "stash" .....the blue buttons are corduroy and the pink buttons are very fuzzy...the paper flowers are punched out using a SU punch...the green pearls are from Recollections and the fuzzy ric rac is from my "stash"....I hope you like :)
So did everyone start back to the grind today? my kids went back to school this morning and Cordell and I had the worst time waking up..both of us are big time night owls and he's been going to bed about 5am and waking up about noon so let's see how bad he passes out tonight LOL!...Chiy couldn't wait to see her friends...I need to show you a picture of what she did with her birthday $.... :)....Have a great day...

Pink Rocker...Day 9
Hi Everyone!!!

Today's card features another cute Anya this one is part of a set called Xmas Sweeties from The Greeting Farm....Tim thought she looked more Eskimo and needed more pizazz...so I added a cute snowman button :)....The DP is from My Mind's Eye and the fiber and buttons are from CTMH and SU..The green pearls are from Recollections and the green gems surrounding her are from Taylored Expressions.... I did use stickles on her outfit..O and I distressed the DP edges...and pop dotted the image...I hope you like....see you tomorrow....

Hi Everyone!!!! Thank you for the sweet comments you have been leaving me..It means so much when you take a sec to say something nice...it really does make my day..In my blogging New Years resolution I have made myself promise to stop lurking and leave a quick comment on each blog I look at..because I look at so many I always think I'll go back and post later but I don't :( and I know how I feel when not to many people comment on my cards..but I promise to start commenting more.....I love blurphing so much so this should be a doable resolution..:).....
Did anyone else make a New Years Resolution??? what is it? and do you need support? if you do let me know and I will for sure be here for you...:) my family is back to eating healthy and exercising are butts off so does anyone want to jump in with me? We will be weighing in once a month...just LMK???
OK on to the card this is Day 8 of The Greeting Farms 12 days of sketches....I wanted a cutesy card for this sketch..so I used all DP from DCWV All About Boys...The solid cardstock and the lion (stamp) is from CTMH... with the lion I used orange liquid applique to give him a fuzzy mane... The orange glittery brads are from my "stash" ( I threw away the wrapper :()... The sentiment is also from this set..I can't find the name of this set..I think she had it on clearance though...The ticket punch is a punch I have had forever and I was excited to finally get to use it..LOL! ...I hope you have great weekend...
