Moxie Fab World Olympic Challenge (Go Canada!)

Here's another card that I made as I sympathy card. I like the text stamp on the flowers and was trying to keep it simple, but not sure if I like it for some reason. I used PTI stamps and paper.

Moxie Fab World Olympic Challenge

Moxie Fab World has several fantastic give-aways going on right now. This card was made for my grandaughter for Valentine's Day, so I'll put it under the "Love" category. I used PTI papers and ribbon, some glitter and a page from a French Dictionary containing the word "amour" because my grandaughter is in French Immersion.

I have enjoyed watching the Olympics, so sad for the Canadian Women's curling team who came so close to gold yesterday.

PTI Paint by number sketch



Wow, these colors were really out of my comfort zone! But, I am OK with how it turned out. I used all PTI paper and stamps and then added the little sparkle flowers for some bling. Love PTI products and they are sure pulling out all the stops for their 3rd anniversay!

Caardvarks




Here's a card I made for my Mom for Valentine's Day. I've had the paper for a long time, My Mind's Eye I think. I punched out the hearts and ran them through the Xyron and then added glitter. The edge punch is by Fiskars. The sentiment is from PTI and the little red flowers from Making Memories.

I haven't been on my blog for quite a while now. Christmas, work and a new puppy have kept me really busy! It's fun to use a sketch again and to try out the tag maker I was given for Christmas.

I've used Basic Grey and Coredinations paper and a cuttlebug folder. I find masculine cards more challenging so I tried to keep this simple. I like the bright color especially because it's been so grey here on the coast.


Here's a photo of our new puppy too. He's a Flat-Coated Retriever, 3 months old now and his name is Daegan (Irish for dark-haired). He is a sweetie!

Christmas Cards


It's been quite a while since I added anything to this blog, but I have been busy making cards! Work has been crazy busy lately and my husband has been away a lot, so I need to take our dog out for a run when I get home. She's lonely and bored being alone all day. Yesterday I came home to find she had chewed up a pair of my shoes. First time since she was a pup. These cards are going in the mail tomorrow so they should make it to Australia in time for Christmas. I just noticed that one of the little rhinestones fell off the first card, so it was replaced but I'm too lazy to retake the photo. I scanned a Christmas carol from one of my music books and printed it off on different papers, then used a Nestie to cut out. The snowflake is cut out on my Cricut, run through the Zyron and then glittered. I also ran a piece of green cardstock through the Zyron, glittered it and then cut out using a Martha Stewart punch. I'm happy with how these turned out!
