Busy Holiday Weekend

I know how much my Friend Jo loves Sunflowers so I saw this stamp and decided to make her a just cause card. Here is what I did.. I couldn't find any sunflower paper in my stash so I made some. I used a smaller stamp and some versamark and stamped the green paper. The big yellow flower is actually a half flower stamp that I stamped together to make one whole one. By putting the girl in the center I kinda hid the connection part. Inked up all the sides and added lots of bling on this one. Hope you like :-)

My First Create a Critter card

I made this card with the Create a Critter cricut cartridge for a co-workers birthday. She keeps it on her bookshelf in her office :-)


Mother's Day card

Kinda late at posting :-) but here is the Mother's day card I made for my mom. I used a dollar stamp for the image and sentiment that I got at JoAnns and colored it with Water Color pencils.



Just Cause little Snail

I just felt like making a card and didn't have a reason so I made this adorable little snail. Also, it's colored with copics but it's not copic paper it's just regular CTMH cardstock so it ran a little in a few places but I thought it was still cute enough to share :-) The paper is also CTMH and the ribbon is SU. I used the CTMH distressing inks on the edges.


Close up...

June Jackpot Days - Close to my heart

This is too good to pass up! Sale ends June 30th!!! www.stuckonglue.myctmh.com


Exciting News!!!!

So last friday I got really exciting news! I got accepted to attend the Copic certification class in July! This class is mostly offered to store owners, designers, etc. Those that are not one of those can be waitlisted and if there happens to be room, you can be choosen. So I filled out the application about a month ago, sent my blog address and examples of my work as requested hoping that maybe just maybe I'd get selected. Well on friday, I got the call that I had indeed been accepted to attend and all I needed to do was fill out the registration and pay the fee.

I'm so VERY excited about this. I haven't had my copics long but I love them to pieces. I get so inspired by other peoples work and how well they color. I also kept seeing the copic certified buttons on peoples blogs and it just really got me interested in learning more. So many of you have left me wonderful comments about my work and I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Many of you that follow me, I also follow and are inspired by. I can only hope that I can be an inspiration to others as well.

So the class is on July 11th in Irvine and I just cant wait!

1st Birthday Invites

I made these for a 1st Birthday. If you look down a little further to my "Invites" post, you'll see a jungle baby shower themed invite. Well the baby was born and turned 1 and I was asked to make the bday invites for the same little one I had previously made baby shower invites for :-)


Baby Shower Card

I made this card for a Co-Workers Baby Shower. Some of the other women in the room knew I scrapbooked and requested the card be passed around :-) It was nice to hear the WOW's from people I work with on a regular basis.

My DD's Bday card for my Brother

My DD (5 1/2) Jordan also made a card for my brother. She usd a CTMH stamp for the boy then hand drew the wheelchair behind it. I think this was her most creative card and I didn't help her one bit! You can't really tell from the picture but the piece under the cake is actually embossed as well. Again she also did that on her own. :-)


Birthday Card

I made this card for my little brother's 26th birthday. He is handicap so I wanted to make it fun and colorful yet simple. I colored the image with Watercolor pencils.


Mother's Day Card

This is a simple card I made for another Co-Worker. DCWV Card Stock and the little stamp is SU


More Mother's Day Cards I made for Co-Workers

These were made with Digital Stamps from Mo Manning, Copics, Oragami Paper and the Pagoda is from the Pagoda Cricut Cart!

Mother's Day Cards


I was asked by my Co Workers to make a few Mother's Day cards. One was to be garden themed and the other too include Grapes. Here are the final cards :-)

Card 1 uses CTMH paper, Cricut Walk in my garden, Cricut Mother's Day for the inside, MS grass and fence border punch, Chalk for the edges. Stampin Up stamp for the sentiment and the MS score board for the envelope.
Card 2- I didn't have anything "Cricut carts" to make the grapes so I got creative and pulled out my small circle punches. The grapes are made with different size circle punches 1/2 and 3/4 and inked on the sides, the leaves are from the Cricut Storybook Cart and CTMH Paper.





Birthday Invites (1st Birthday)

I made these invites for our nieces, daughters 1st birthday. I made 65 of them! I used the Sweet Treats for the cupcakes and the happy Birthday embossing folder.

Cupcakes with frosting piled high,

Danielle is turning ONE, oh me oh my.

It went so fast, how time has flown,

We can’t believe how much she’s grown.

First a cry, then a crawl, now she can walk,

It won’t be long before she can talk.

Join us for her special day,

To sprinkle her with love on her 1st birthday

So behind in Posting "I'm Sorry"

Wow I am WAY behind on posting. I apologize to all my followers. I've been busy making bday invites for our nieces daughter as well as going on a vacation with my family. We just got back from Cabo San Lucas Mexico on Friday! I can't wait to scrap the pictures. So I will get to posting all the Mother's day cards I made.

Stay Tuned!!

So I've been asked to make save the dates for 2 different weddings. One for my friend and another for my DH's Niece. Here are the ones I made for my friend. It's a very casual beachside wedding which I will also be in (wuhoo my first wedding that wasn't my own) and they are both very beachy. The wedding invites will be surfboards.

Past Invitations


I made this invite for a friend of my husbands Son. Excuse the marks on it, my copy got a bit beat up in a drawer with colored pencils. I used my cricut for the card itself and the "It's a Party" the Elmo is a pic I found online in a kids online colorbook and I used Photoshop to as PJ to the shirt to personalize it as well as color Elmo in. Personalized poem by me.


I made this invite really simple for my friends sons x2 birthday party. I had short notice so I used an online pic I found of Thomas, added some smoke and personalized it with Photoshop. Personalized poem by me :-)

I made these for my Husbands Niece's baby Shower. Her name is Bea so they did a bee theme. We kept it simple using clip art and
For her work.
