RIDE, SALLY, RIDE


Here I am with my card for alot of challenges...finally. Guess I was all carded out after my 10 cards shuffle!
The theme for theSplitcoaststampers fan club this month is songs, just click on the link and you will see.

So my card says Ride, Sally Ride, but the song is indeed Mustang Sally...does anybody want to hear it... I just thought this sweet lady looked like a Sally...so yeah...as the chorus goes...Ride...Sally...Ride!

A Big CONGRATS goes out to Jo (Reddyisco) our new Queen for the Day! You have such a pretty style Jo, I am so happy I found this sweet card to case:

Enjoy your reign, you are so deserving. Thank you for your kind words and encouragement all the time. xo

I also entered this card in the WT challenge, which is Glitter and hosted by Kim! and guess you could enter this one in the F4A challenge because it is for a birthday card too.

This is an image from Anne Ryan, thank you PIC.

Thank you all for looking and enjoy

MRS WINTER

Hello, hello,

Oh how I have been making cards all day, I need to make more, but I just had to stop and show you this one too. I love this Winter lady she is from The Stamping Place and she is actually a gift from MishB, Michelle! She does fabulous work, and was a darling to send me a few to play with. My sister is going to give it to a good friend of hers. Think she'll like it...he he he

The tutorial for the tent card is found on SCS. Beate is the queen of tutorials. Thank you for stopping by, it's always good to see you around. :)

PINKY & GIRLY FOR YOU ABBY

Here is a card I made for a young girl 15 and a half. Her name is Abby and she is undergoing a long cancer treatment. Read all about it here on SCS and here Caringbridge. I used the Color Challenge also. Vicki's hosting it this week on SCS. My dessert option was pink for the girly in Abby! I also used the midnight madness sketch this week.

LAVENDER BEAR

Congratulations Lisa (lisaadd)! What a beautiful day for you and for me, because I just love this card I was lurking at from a far...now I can case it in your honor today! I love the flowers and the different size in shapes of the panel. Thank you so much for sharing your amazing gallery with us!

This card is also for the crafty creations challenge which was all about bears this week. Also is for Simonsaysstamps challenge, which is to make a Christmas card with any color but red and green:


NOTE: I have to mention that I used the beautiful lavender leafy dp Deena's oldest son gave me, I really love how it turned out. Please, if you can mention it, I will send the link so he can read it. Also, the other "design paper" is not really one, it's a cardboard from some embellishments I bought a while back, but just had to keep it and I came across it this morning and it really fit the color combo I was going for. So keep those packaging cardboards you never know...

SYMPATHY CARD INSPIRED BY JUDI

Here is another card for our Queen for the Day Bridget (bfinlay). I really love the gold embossed tree she had on there, that I gave it my twist. I love her work and her kind words and encouragement she leaves to alot of us on SCS. Thank you for stopping by...must be on my way to work on Christmas Cards.


Here is a card I made for my godfather's family, he has just passed away last week. I thought this card from our sweet Judi (jovialjudi) inspired me sooo much. And from the looks of it and the hits and favorites it got, has inspired alot of us on SCS!

SEWN SHAKER SNOWMAN

Hello everyone, I was visiting Deena today! I made this fun and whimsical Christmas card with the new sewing machine she bought me for Christmas. Ain't I spoiled... I was soooooo happily surprised, so I stitched my first card. YAY She did one too, but was not all finished with hers when I left. I will give you a link to her blog when she's done okay. My card surely fits the F4A challenge on SCS. I think it took me less than 15 minutes not counting the stitching of course! WOW I reallly love how it turned out. Guess Deena's company helped me along, I even finished the inside I was so excited about it! Hope you had a lovely visit, I did enjoy having and of course visiting Deena too. Have a beautiful week-end everybody, and remember, now is a gift, or else why would we call it PRESENT...read that somewhere...food for thought.




HIWM*: Winter Wonderland Kaiser Craft Dp's, multicraft Shaker Stickers, sewing, tree punch and red cardstock is bazzil.

*How it was made=HIWM!

This is the inside! I really love to finish my insides...guess one Judi Rose is responsible for that!

PINK & GOLD SNOWSTORM







Happy Monday to all! It is beautiful today, inside and out. First of all, I have Corryn over since Saturday which I am sooo happy and grateful for. We had some fine times, watching some youtube clips of Old Sesame street with John John and Henry. It made Corryn smile and laugh out loud with me. We also had a delicious lunch. I warmed up my chick pea soup and it disappeared in our tummies like it was going out of style! Now, she is watching a show she enjoys while I'm uploading. I am taking her back this afternoon, she will be attending a Christmas party so she is very excited about that.

Guess the colors of her cheeks and lips inspired me using pink today. I love it with gold too. I used Kim's (nutsymulh) sketch a previous FS on scs as inspiration for mine, except she had flowers and I made a snowstorm with my Inkadinkadoo Christmas stampset a gift from Helen (misshelenstamps) last year. I just love it. Also used the emboss resist technique, I love it and can't believe it was never featured as the TLC on SCS either. But Joan changed all that today, as she suggest we try it for those who never had. And...last but not least, I used a creme ribbon to make a neat bow for the CAS challenge on SCS also. My card is really 2 layers if you don't count the base...I know...but my bow was so pretty, I had to enter it.

I still have the beautiful scalloped oval frames and fun brads you sent me. Congratulations to you, an honour well deserved my friend. I love the fun sewing machine you used and the different textures of
