Sympathy Cards

2011-04-07T22:48:00.000-07:00

Here are some sympathy cards that I made for my Sister and niece. For the first one I used Prima's flowers, EK success punch for the Greeting

My paper is DCWV At Home.....love this paper!! Oh and a Martha Stewart punch.
This one I got the idea from Linda Guild from FB, this is the inside......
close up of the flower,,,,,,,
The front of the card.

I didn't have the stampin petal punch so I used the small oval punch, folded the paper and cut not quite halfway long ways.
This idea I got from Valitas blog. They are suppose to look like Hydrangeas. I use an EK Success heart punch and only punched right past the point on the heart.

2011-03-01T13:31:00.000-08:00

My nephew and Great Niece. A very proud Daddy he is.

this is her first bottle.

she is named after my sister who passed away .

I was there and it truly was the most amazing thing.

Congratulations Joey and Erin,

2011-01-05T16:12:00.000-08:00

This Is a LO that I did awhile back but never added a Title to.
I may still change the title.
It looks a little washed out here but it doesn't in my files
The paper is DCWV Nana's Nursery ( I think).
The punches that I used were Martha Stewart punches.
I think the large one is lattice, then one of her butterfly punches, and last was a flower punch.
I must remember to write these things down as I go along.

Shannon (from Provo Craft) and me

Birthday card for Grandson

2010-11-06T23:01:00.000-07:00

This is a card I did for my Grandson that turned 16.
Can you guess what his school colors are? Maroon and gold.
Obviously he plays a tenor sax, but the neat thing it is the same one we bought
for his Dad for his 16th birthday!
Hr didn't want a new one , he wanted to play the same sax that hid Dad and Uncle played.

Happy Birthday card.

2010-11-06T22:48:00.000-07:00

This is my youngest Son's 35th birthday card.

over end over end at least 6 times and he always said he wished he had that car back!!

RIP Andy

Create a Critter Monkey Birthday Card

2010-08-04T12:53:00.000-07:00

This is a Birthday card that I made for my 9 y/o Great Nephew.

I have always taken care of him and his brother since my niece went back to work after having him.

My Sweetheart alway called Colton Monkey boy.

That is very fond memories for Colton. He is always talking about Uncle Marv calling him Monkey boy.

This is the reason I always make him a card with a monkey on it.

He was Uncle Marv's little helper.

I used Cricut Create a Critter, DCWV The Guy Stack, Rubber stamp for the Happy birthday.

Any difference between Red and Pink ATG?

2010-07-26T19:48:00.001-07:00

This is the new PINK Advanced Tape Glider and the ATG 714.

As far as I can see there is not any difference other than the color and the name.

I do love the Pink one much better because PINK makes me feel happier.

2010-07-02T12:32:00.000-07:00

On June 15th was my Sweethearts birthday and on June 16th we would have been married 41 years.

These are the flowers that I made for him.

The black and white picture is of him and I when I was 16 and he was 27.

He loved Donald Duck so I added a Donald Duck from Mickey and Friends for him.

TheLove on the picture and the heart and Sweetheart all come from the cartridge Sweethearts.

Here are a few cards that I made for my niece

for her for Mothers day.The butterfly is from the Hannah Montana Cricut cartridge.

The butterflies are a Martha Stewart punch as well as the border punch.

I love her punches.

Sorry about the glare from the glitter.

I couldn't get them not to glare and it was a wet gloomy day.

This is a birthday card that I made for my Sister.

I used the idea of the flower pot card but made it smaller to fit on the front of a card.Sorry the pictures are not great.

My niece took them with her cell phone.

We were already at Roadhouse before I realized I didn't take any pictures.

Which is some thing that I do all the time.

Birthday card

2010-03-26T22:28:00.000-07:00

My Niece calls me tonight from Kroger's to tell me she is looking for a card for her Husbands Grandmother. She says" Nanny they don't have any pretty and specials cards here. Do you have any made up?"
I told her that I didn't but come on out and see what I could come up with.
This card only took about 20 minutes for me to make. ( Which is a really good time for me because it usually takes longer than that to decide what paper to use.) But in all fairness I already had the stuff out from working on a LO for DGD.

My Grand furbabies

2010-03-17T15:50:00.000-07:00

These are my Grand furbabies
The cat is Binky she is about 13 year old. My son and DIL got her when my Grandson was a baby. He is 15 now. He is the one that named her Binky. This is Buddy he is about 10 or 11 years old, he is a good dog he just wants me to touch him when I go to their house.

This is Andy, I forget his formal name. He was a rescued Greyhound, from a rescue place in another State, maybe VA.

My son and DIL adopted him about 6 or 7 years ago. He was a racing Greyhound that had won some races until he got hurt.

All the things that they told my Son that Greyhounds couldn't do....well Andy can. He is a good dog too.
I love this pose of Andy, my Son calls it the sphinx pose.

I have one more Grandfurbaby that is a black Lab name Jack. He belongs to my youngest Son.

I don't have a recent picture of him. I must get my Son to send me one.

2010-02-21T17:06:00.000-08:00

This is my Brother in law who is an amazing and talented artist. Now he wouldn't agree but look at some of the replica's that he has made and let me know if you agree, This is a bow and arrow

case that he made for his Grandson for his eleventh birthday.I just wanted to let some of you see what an amazing talent he really has.

These are some items that my Brother in law has been making for awhile now.

This is a knife he made from a piece of metal and it has a bone handle I believe.

These were some items he had on his dresser. He does unbelievable work..

Most everything he makes he uses the same patterns the Native Americans used.

another knife with deer horn stand.

This is a replica of a ceremonial mask and a smokin Tomahawk replica with all the beading done by Brother in law.

Powder horn replicas made with the real horns, he does all the carving and leather work also.

This is a possibles bag is what I think he told me. He made this out of Elk hide and did the beadwork. Native American used these to keep stuff in that they wanted to keep dry.
It is amazing work.

A fan and rattle with peyote stitch bead work,

Crow style gun case made from hide with bead work.

Breastplate replica made from the same type of materials that the Native Americans used back then.

Same as above just a better picture.

2010-02-08T19:27:00.000-08:00

This is a picture of a barn across
the street from where I live.

My son took this picture while he came up
to shovel me out. He thought that it made a neat
picture.

2010-01-03T13:20:00.000-08:00

Here is an ornament that I did with circles cut at
3" and the snowmen are a MS punch as well as the
branches and of course the drippy goo punch.
I just cut out 3" circles in white cut them in half and
then used the Drippy goo punch.
I think I got the idea from someone on the Cricut MB.
You can't see them very well but I put beads at the top and bottom.

2009-10-27T13:50:00.000-07:00

This is a Glass Block that I made for DDIL for her Birthday.
I used white vinyl for the snowman and the snowflakes.
White ribbon and a couple of Christmas picks that I took apart.
I bought the glass block at HL.

New MS punches

2009-10-25T23:00:00.000-07:00

Here is another new punch from Martha Stewart.
It is the Doily Lace Punch, I love love love this punch. I punch some ribbon strips and put them on card topper so you could see the size better. I also put a regular size punch here so you can see the size difference in those as well. These are A2 card tops. ( I realize the color is a little washed out but the bottom paper is suppose to be peach.

2009-10-13T09:03:00.000-07:00

They both are cut at 2"

I used the Peachy Keen Winter faces.
I used the Doodlecharms cartridge for the snowman and penquin.

Birthday Card for DGS

2009-08-29T13:42:00.000-07:00

I don't know where I got this image. I think off of the net where someone had posted where to go.

I don't remember who that was, but I thank you.

My DGS is 15 y/o (TODAY) and he loves wolves , he has his room done in wolves so I thought this card would be perfect for him.

The colors are much prettier IRL.
