Flowers :)
12 Comments   Uncategorized
I'm not usually a big flower chick, like the primas and such, but I love these funky vintagey Foldies from Sassafras! No, its not just because they are from Sassafras ;) Though I do love me some Sass! This card has alot of dimension and was super fun to put together since it was out of my norm. I used the Clear Stamp of Smell the Flowers Tia, Bazzill Swiss Dot CS and Sass for the rest. Tia...

Howdy!!! I kinda took a mini vaca there... unintentional but eh :) I spent the end of last week getting caught up and not doing anything remotely interesting to share. But yesterday I finally had a chance to get my craft on! *happy dance* I wanted to use some of the older digis from Some Odd Girl so I printed out a few and went to TOWN. I am also more than slightly obsessed with square cards...

What I love Wednesday!

Meet my new love :) She needs a name. She's definitely a she, not a he, you can tell when you hold her (so affectionate!). She is my Alto Saxophone. I rescued her, she used and it shows, she had been sitting in someone's house for a couple of years so neglected! They wanted to learn to play but never got around to it. I have been wanting to get back into playing for my own enjoyment so the...

Diet Shake
2 Comments   Uncategorized
I headed up to my Dr's yesterday for this week's class and clinic and I had someone ask me, via email, about what I eat on this diet, and while this isn't a food blog, I thought I'd share a little "recipe" out of the folder. I'm not sure but I thought this might work with Slim Fast too or other protein shakes that are out there. Mine is obviously chocolate but I'm sure you could switch up the...

I'm a big dork, self admitted! But I'm super geeked about this card! Things don't always work out like the do in my head and the fact that this one did.... MAGIC YO!

So my pops are purple and teal :) I used a Fiskars Border Punch (another admission... bought specifically for this card, sad I know) and a...
