Baby Frame


I don't know how I forgot this! I made this to celebrate the birth of my 1st nephew. I have it on my desk at work & I absol love how it turned out. Yes, I know, I say I absol love everything I make.. it's not very modest of me. Anyways, I used NA on this & BG paper. Have I mentioned I love stickles? :)

The newest addition...


Well she's not mine, but I love her!

Good Morning!






I decided to post some pics of my favorite "nanimals".

1st cards using Paper Pups



I'm almost positive this will be my last post of the day. I just finished these two cards using Paper Pups. I'm so glad I got this cartridge. I like the assembly-line style of cardmaking. At least for the more time consuming parts that is. I started out just to make one card but decided would make a 2nd dog & just save it for another. Well, I decided I had 2 ideas so went ahead & used it. I'm working on using up some of my paper that's been lying around which explains the brown background in the thank you card. I popped both dogs & the flower. BTW, I used old paper & the George cart for the flower. I also found the button in a canister of odds-n-ends I've never gotten round to using. I made the stem myself & the leaves are really one of the flowers just cut apart. I love this dog!!

My sick day..





Well I've been complaining I want to stay home & make cards all day & now here I am. I'm actually sick..started to lose my voice @ work last nite. If it wasn't for that I would be at work today.. I swear! Anyways, the mini-card is for a girl @ work who didn't get a Valentine from me so I made this to make it up to her. I actually made 3 of the "Get Well Soon" cards but they are so similar I'm just gonna post one. I used the grumpy bella stamp here & some stickles. The blue paper on top I just couldn't resist picking up @ Michaels yesterday. It has glitter on it already! I used Beyond Birthdays for the phrase & cut the circles from George. I love bella! Honestly I've had this stamp for quite some time & I could never figure out an appropriate card for it. It just came to me when I was perusing my BB cartridge lol.


I made this for a friend at work, well I actually made 2 but they're so simlilar I'm only going to post one. I used the birthday bella stamp but popped up a studio g stamp so it looks like she's holding her own little valentine instead. I chalked the edges & used stickles too.

Cat Card



I love how the sillouette of the cat is heart shaped.

Baby present


This was so easy to do! I used NA for the peapod & the sweet pea words. Of course I used stickles all over & distressed it too.

Baby Card


I finished this months ago. I finally gave it to my sis.

Thinking of You Card


I made this sympathy card for a friend. I love that little bee stamp!

Valentine's Day card


& here is the Valentine's Day card I also made for my husband. It's my 1st spinner card & I used NA for the truck & Beyond Birthdays for "love". Once again, love how this turned out!

My 1st post


Take 5 or 6.. I just can't figure out how to upload more than one pic @ a time on a post.. grrrr. I guess I will do them separate. So, I wanted a place to store all of my pics of cards & projects together.


This is my husbands Valentine's Day gift. I made it in January & of course I couldn't wait to show him so he got it early. I used pink chalk ink on the flower & the silver is all heat embossed. There is a little pink heart pin on the ribbon. Also, I re-purposed the wedding card my sister-in-law gave us (the phrase). I held onto that card.. I knew I was going to use it.
