I hope these cards make you smile!

  I made these cards for the birthdays of my sisters-in-law. I was so impressed with them that I just had to share. That may sound like I'm trying to toot my own horn, and I'm not meaning to. It's just that most times I make something, I don't actually like them. But these are very cool!   Both of these cards are from the Wishes Card Confidence Program.

  I've been wanting to make the Lucky Layers card from Wishes for a long time, but I didn't want to use that many brads. At this point, I am so in love with Close to My Heart and all it's fabulous products, that I can't wait to get rid of all my non-CTMH products, so I'm willing to use as many as needed for a project. Especially for my sisters-in-law!
  Enough talking, here are the cards. The first one (blue, orange, pink) is Lucky Layers for my sister-in-law Kelly. The second one is from my sister-in-law Lauren and is Down the Middle.
  These cards made me smile, I hope they do you too!!

  I also used coordinating inks, the stipple brush (I love this brush!) from the texture tools, the piercing tools and some CTMH stamp sets - It's Your Day and Everyday Celebrations, retired. And don't forget the inside of the card!! Think you always have to cover up the backs of brads and eyelets? Think again! Look how cool this looks by not covering them up, and adding some more jewels!




  For this card, I used coordinating inks, the Cupcake Sprinkles stamp set and Clear Sparkles.



  Happy Birthday, if it's your day! Happy Wednesday to the rest of you!

My attempts at photo editing sites ...

Hey there blog readers! I know, I know, I was supposed to be posting more regularly ... I'm sorry. But my garage sale is done, so that means I should have more time to post, right? The reason I am posting today is for that Nebraska Learns class I talked about at the beginning of the month. Nothing like procrastinating - today is the last day I can complete it! ;) I am actually really enjoying this first "assignment." Our assignment was to play with photo editing sites. For my scrapbooking friends out there, I'm thinking this could do wonders for your already wonderful pages! As I was working on my second picture, I had an idea. There are many pictures - like that particular one - that I'd like to include in my scrapbook, but can't make myself create a whole page for a picture of a flower ... but can you imagine putting this photo of the flower on it? I can. How much cooler would that make the page? I could talk about where I was and why I took the pictu...

New products are fast approaching!

   Hey there blog readers! I'm so sorry I've been so lax about posting to my blog lately - it's been a crazy month! There has been a trip to Chicago for Pampered Chef national conference - it was amazing! Also in there was the Close to My Heart national conference, which I didn't attend, but I've still got the excitement brewing from all the new product and changes! And a booth for the local Lone Tree Days celebration over the Fourth of July, along with a cousin's Pampered Chef bridal shower ... and more! So, anyway, sorry I didn't post. I had lots of good intentions; and I even got some projects done, but not sure what happened to all my time.    I plan on finding some of those pictures and uploading them soon. Also, I plan on heading downstairs to scrapbook soon - so maybe I'll have some of those pictures to share.    I'm not supposed to share any of the new products before the catalog goes live to customers, but if you contact me, I might give y...
