This is the
cherry bowl card, which I wasn't the only one to case, take a look a this cutsie
one from Irishgreensue is soo cute too. I used Webters pages and the giant scallop too. I just love our Queen'S gallery! The image of
the cherry bowl can be purchased through a donation to
Jak Heath's fundraiser for Katie, by clicking on the badge on the upper right of my homepage.
Sadly, I needed a sympathy card for a neighbor who just passed away. His wife was pleased with the Lasagna I had send over by Pierre. Her husband's name was Pierre also, I don't really know them, but we did bring bagck their grand-daugther's wandering kitty cat last summer, and said hello on my daily walks. I used one of
Judi's card and added this little border with his name later on, thought it made it more personal to his wife. You can see
the original on SCS! Pierre told me he never would have thought of doing that, but I remembered how generous our neighbors were when I lost mydad 30 years ago. The "loved" and "warm" feeling of knowing our neighbors cared still stays with me, so I just say it's pay it forward. Paying is not always with money, time, love and tenderness is PRICELESS.
Lastly, I would like to say, yes, I did choose this Queen because of my love for her, but then, what are friends for if not to make you happy surprises, cheer you on in times of need, to laugh about silly things like John-John counting videos. So here is to you sweet Judi, I enjoyed every minute of caseing your cards, don't think I will stop soon. LOL Hugs to all!
Here is another card cased for our
Queen for the challeng. This is from our
Queen's gallery. She had a
truckload filled with flowers, and the country nature look I just love. Also you can see the beginnings of awesome talent just by looking at the way she colored in the truck, wow! This is also for the
Twisted sistah's challenge this week, which called for purple, yellow and a punch, guess I'm good with that one, if a tad late...if you want to play, just make a card with all these requirements and add tsc0114 in your keywords, we love it when you do!
Another challenge is of course the
F4A challenge and textures, and last but gee, not the least, is the
Crafty Creations Challenge, which called for NEW BEGINNINGS this week, anything from a baby, marriage, job, so I turned to a car, a Volks that is, to Congratulate my oh...baby David! He got himself his first car, and all on his own. The only criteria I had for it, was it had to be blue, so the color here is for the purpose of the challenge, because it is BLUE!!! LOL
Pierre and I are so proud of him, he's been doing so well, the only thing is, he's growing up way too fast for mamma. The first time he left, I had him call me when he got to his destination, but he made it very clear that this was not going to be "habitual". Gee, and here I thought a mom was a mom 24/7, we are going to have to discuss how this works seriously. LOL
Well, this is about all for now, I had to talk about it, the guys here, think I'm nuts to worry. (sigh....)The
image of the car I got on the web.
Thank you for looking and if you read me, as usual I love you more! he he he
CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR OWN PATRICIA (KOKIROSE) &
Here is another card for the Queen for the Day this week. She is none other than Pam(pam124). I love this beautiful flower card, and in blue, I had to case it. Here is Palm Beach HoneyBarbie from the Barbie website for the inspiration challenge today, used her for the colors.
I played with the MFT Wednesday Stamp Club today. It's new and fun. Anyone can enter. Also played this week's Mothermark Teapot party challenge, and I will be sending this card out to this destination station.
Here is a card I made for the Midnight madness challenge this week. I love this image from Seaside sketches SU set , it reminded me of Pierre and I...awwww. I might even keep this one for him to offer on Valentine's day...but shhhhhh don't tell him okay.
Here is another card I cased for our Queen for the Day. Yes, I know, I had to do an Edward card because of Judi's love of "Twilight". I never read the books,neither seen the movie, but I wanted to share this with her, and her Edward card was soooo cute. Also this is for the Greeting Farm challenge which is to use black, turquoise and another color, I chose red. If you want to play, it's here at splendidstamping
Hello everyone, I had this card in mind since last night. I woke up and saw the fun little felt lips Ahilim had sent me a couple of years ago and thought: "This would look great on a Valentine CAS card". So it did. You can not get CAS-ier. Is there such a word, well in blogland and cardmaking I decided there is. LOL I sure love all the white space around it too, hum, the possibilities! This also fit the Inspiration challenge on SCS with this nail design. 0382

Hello again, I thought of using one of several images I got as a gift for making a donation for Katie's fundraising. There are so many companies that have contributed generously in giving images. You can see Katie's badge up there on my front page. If you can, do something, if you can't maybe send a card and/or pray for her and loved ones. Any little thing helps I believe.
Hello everyone, here is my cards for the MFTWSC challenge this week, I just love the sketch again. Guess I am more of a gal that needs structure in her life...lol Not that it always goes that way right. But I am finding that PI's are so fun to play with. I have been knowned to entertain different love affairs with STAMPS, one day it's the Greeting Farm, then it's Ketto's from Stamping Bella, then it's Penny Black, House Mouse and the list goes on and on. The important thing is to have fun with it and I am having fun with it. Wait 'till you see my next "love interest", some of you may fall on your face. STAY TUNED....he he he!
Here is a card I made for Card Patterns's sketch 97 this week.
Here is a card I made for MFT's new challenge called Getting sketchy. I just love this pure innocence image, and had some kind friend send it to me and played with it before. I won a gift certificate and got a chance to buy it along with a few a la mode beauties too. Painted with stickles with the tlcon SCS this week too.
Here is my card for the new QUEEN FOR THE DAY( I'm hosting for the whole month of JANUARY)and she is none other than Pat (foxy67). I just love Pat's funny and happy cards. She is one of my favorite Teapot partiers, and a generous lady. I chose this beautiful Christmas card from last year to case. Pat had sent it to me, of course in blue! So I decided to make a Valentine and send it to her!
This is a card I made for my hairdresser and for the Crafty creations challenge. They are having a special blog hop for the 100th challenge and special prizes, so we had a sketch, color and adding a recycled something, so I used the ship image I had on another card.
Hello everybody! I made this little Winnie the Pooh Card for Jamie, Pat's daughter in law, who is expecting a baby boy anyday now. Everybody at the teapot party and of course Pat's family are all awaiting this little tot anxiously. As Bob Barker would say: "Come on down Jon, you're the first baby in the Smethers family." LOL Congrats to the proud parents and Grammy and Pappy Smethers.
OH HOW I HAVE MISSED BLOGLAND!!!
