More Snow?


I could have SWORN I've already posted this but, I didn't see it when I searched my blog.  I think this was for a swap Angie was hosting.  This was one of my first SU sets.  I bought this back when I didn't know how to color images.  In fact, I HAD no coloring mediums!!  Kinda surprised I didn't get rid of this set for just that reason.  But, I'm glad I kept it.

Blue & Green

Chris did a couple of color combo swaps!!  I had this old SU paper I got on clearance and it was PERFECT for the blue & green swap.  You can't tell but I squirted the white paper w/glimmer mist.  made it look really cool but, made it VERY hard to glue down properly.  The paper curled & didn't want to stay to the mat.

I got your goat!!


For a goat ATC swap.  Digital goat, paper pieced.  I really liked this goat.  Aparently, so did everyone 'cause 2 other people used the same goat.

Baby Baby!


Another card from the SU party!  I needed a baby congrats card so I picked pinks to do this spinner card.  The arrow is just a brad.

Plane & Simple


I LOVE how the clouds turned out on this card.  We took a Scallop circle punchie & inked around the edges of it.  So simple but SO EFFECTIVE!!!  Now, I'm ready for my dad's birthday!!!

That's Amour!


Went to a SU party and made some cards!!  This is my least favorite but that's only 'cause I HATE how the ripped paper turned out.  I am NOT GOOD on random; I can't tear, I can't stamp random backgrounds (see the big, blank space under the heart?) and I can't do jaunty angles. 

All supplies SU

Sick, sick, the poor thing's sick

When I was in fifth grade, I played Mabel in the "Rosy Cheeked Ghost".  My only line was "sick, sick, the poor thing's sick".  This has been ME for the last 3 days!!!  Horrible cough I can't get over.  There's nothing the doctor can do so I suck on Halls (sugar free, of course!) eat ice cream bars (NOT sugar free) and gag down cough syrup.  Nothing works much.  I have pics to post and will hopefully get them up here SOON!!!

Steampunk!


For Kirtsty's swap.  Now, to be fair, I didn't add quite so many "gears" to all the ATCs, others just go 2.  I had a bunch left over & just started gluing them to my ATC.  This was FUN!

Polar Bear



I bought this paper a couple of years ago.  I fell in LOVE with the cute polar bear on the paper.  I looked everywhere for the matching stamp but couldn't find it!  I even searched ONLINE (if you know me, I NEVER order online!!!) Never could find it.  Finally, one day, casually strolling thru Michael's, there he was!!!!  Then, Angie posted a Polar Bear swap.  HOT DOG!!!!  I love it when a plan comes together!!!

Peace!!


For Sherri's wreath swap.  I thought I was so far outside the box on this "wreath".  Turns out, Chris used the same one.  LOL  I'm getting kinda bored w/my ATCs.  They all seem to look the same but I don't know what to do to make them better.  I was VERY rushed on the latest batch & there was no time to think of new techniques.  They need some "tweaking" tho!!!
