Good Morning everyone!!

We have another challenge at Pile it On!!!  Sponsored by Stampin Boutique.  I love to get as many challenges as I can into a card.  This time I have 14 Challenges with this card.    I usually start with an image, following with theme, pic colours, a sketch and then the end with the embellishments!  I tried to pic something different than what everyone out there is doing - No Valentine's for this one!!!

 inside the card is clean... I don't have too many young guys in my life so i might give the card for someone else to use 

 and of course I used my cricut for the trophy and blinged up with my stickles... i don't know how I ever made cards and LO's before my cricut and stickles 

 it's this the cutest little guy....  no go to Pile it on challenge for your opportuntiy to win some digi stamps from Stampin Boutique.

what are you doing????

So I have borrowed this from others that I follow - and I thought that it would be a great idea !

Watching: Just getting ready to watch the new "Big Bang Theory"  love love love this show
Eating: fish, cucumbers and waiting for my fries to cook
Drinking: Pespi well it is that or coffee and it is too late for coffee!
Wearing: still in my work clothes - should have changed but feeling lazy
Wishing: I could be given the opportunity to win a huge amount of money so I could craft all day!
Needing: To call my family... i have been trying to remember to call at least once a week
Thinking: I might be getting early symptoms of carpal tunnel. I woke up this morning and my thumb and index finger are pretty numb. It pretty much stinks!
Worrying: about my daughter making car payments... i know... she shouldn't even have one at this age... I tried to tell her but ... you know how it is - they just don't listen
Listening: to the smoke alarm beeping... i should really get a new battery.  I thought that when they hooked it up electronically with wires it wouldn't need more batteries
Wondering: If I can clone myself to get more stuff done that i should be doing cleaning etc :)

Just the two of us!!

Good evening everyone!!

I have had this mirror for quiet a while and decided it needed a face lift!

 a quick removal of the mirror and some added paint...

pretty ribbon, papers, flowers, pearls, and a beautiful daughter with her beautiful mother

and a beautiful finished product to hang in our wall!!

 This was quiet a challenge for me I am not one to play around with things that aren't broken but I really like how this turned out and I can change it around again because it just has paper that can be removed!!

 out of my comfort zone - yes for sure
decor piece 
Prairie Fairy - anything but a card
So Artful Challenges - Georgia o'keeffe

Oceans of Love

Good morning everyone... 

I have some great news... I was asked to be a guest designer at Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog!!  whooohooo!!! This was a first for me and I am completely honored to have been asked.  

Oh my goodness are these fish not the cutest fish you ever did see... 

I used my snake skin cuttlebug embossing folder for the fins and made the fish with the Animal Kingdom cart.  The tag cut from the Close to my heart Art Philosophy Cricut Cart.  Can you tell I love it!  Almost every paper craft that I have been making lately I have been using this cart!!

I also love the Viva glass pens they are so easy to use 

It looks like these little fish are kissing and the heart is right in the middle 

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Fantabulous Cricut - label

2 Sister Challenge Blog - embossing  

365 cards - #327 shape up

I tried to use a cart that would normally not be used for Valentines -Mini Monsters, and the Halloween sayings from Krafin Kimmie Stamps - I think they go pretty good for Valentine's

 Inside the card I crossed out the sight to say bite - teehee... 

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges -
