Happy Tuesday.  I hope this finds you having a super great day! I am sad to say I will no longer be posting to my blog on a daily basis. It seems as if life has just gotten in the way.  I will be taking the month of September off to catch up.  I hope to be back in October with some great mini albums, cards and craft fair items.  I am leaving you with some cute cartoons.

  God bless and Happy crafting.

It's Always Tea Time

Happy Monday.  Are you a tea lover? Today I have some tea holders for you.  I made these for my Mom, Grandma and two Aunts.  We had breakfast at my house on Friday and I wanted to give them a little something to take with them.  

I made these at the last minute so I usually add some
kind of embellishment to the pockets.  Oh well
next time....

A cup of Tea makes everything better. 

Have a Blessed Day

Happy Friday to everyone!! Today I am sharing this beautiful thank you card I received from Sharon.  She was part of the Crafting Open House I had a few weeks ago.  She has a wonderful blog you need to hop on over to and see the elegant cards and crafts she makes.  Her blog is:  inkwooddesign.com

I love the sewing Sharon does on her cards.

Thanks Sharon for sending such a beautiful card.  Enjoy your weekend!

Pocket Tag Card

Happy Thursday! Hope your having a wonderful day. Today's card is made using a butterfly punch to make the pocket tag. .   

I made a book marker to fit inside the pocket. 

Book marker and the card.

Here you can see the butterflies on the pocket.

Happy stamping.  Have an awesome day!

Pumpkin tag pocket

Happy Wednesday. You are probably wondering why I am sharing Halloween crafts with you in August.  Well I came across this blog "Scrapnnana.blogspot.ca" and she made this cute little pocket using a Martha Stewart punch.  Of course I didn't have the punch she used and for a moment I thought should I call Heather? (my neighbor has all the punches) Instead I used the Martha Steward punch I do have, "The Pumpkins."   It's a really cute little pocket and it turned out to be a great Halloween goodies holder for co-works or classmates.  

I added the picket fence, spider and Trick or Treat.

  

 The only  candy I had was an mini Almond Joy but it fit
just right. I think a candy sucker would fit also. 

Inside the pocket. (sorry about the bad picture)

Hope you give these pockets a try.  Check out tomorrows posting for another tag pocket I made for a card. Enjoy your day.

It's A Girl!

Happy Tuesday.  Last week we were surprised with the news that our first grandchild is a Girl! We will be having a precious little princess.  We are so excited and can't wait until we can hold her in our arms and spoil her. I made today's card in honor of our little granddaughter. 

I saw a card on Pinterest with the dresser and thought
I could do that.  I think it's really cute. 

The bear is a embellishment from Jolee's boutique.

Thank you for stopping by and have a super great day!!

Thank you

Happy Monday! I hope you had an enjoyable weekend.  Did you find time to do any crafting or did you just enjoy pinning things to your Pinterest boards?  I did a little of both. Today's card is using the same layout as Friday's card.  The paper is from  DCWV. 

The "thank you" is a CTMH stamp and the edges 
are distressed with Tim Holz inks.

Happy Stamping and enjoy your week!

Glitter Card

Happy Friday.  Here is another card made using the DCWV  "Chateau" paper packet.

All the sheets of paper have glitter.  The butterfly
is a Memory Box die cut. 

Inside the card.  The sentiment is from CTMH. 

Have a super great weekend.  Hope you find time to do some stamping and crafting!

Thinking of You

Happy Thursday everyone.  Hope your all having a wonderful day!!  This has been a great week.  I have been able to make it into my crafting room for three days this week.  Yuppie! 

The paper for this card came out of a DCWV
packet called "The Chateau Lavender Stack".
It has such beautiful paper with glitter and embossing. 

Can you see the glitter?  

I just started making a Mini Album
with this paper.  I will show pictures soon.

Happy Crafting!!

Purse Card

Happy Wednesday!!  Today's card is a money holder.  Using a Sixxiz envelope die cut I made the purse as a money gift holder.  

The lipstick is also a die cut from Sizzix.
 The flower is made of wood so I used a marker
to color it to match the purse.

Inside the purse I used a magnet to keep the flap closed.
I added money inside as a gift.

This card is for a belated birthday.

Thank you for stopping by.  Have a super great day!

Pocket Card

Woo Hoo!! I made it into my craft room yesterday and made some cards.  I have to say it took me some time once I was in there to really get my crafting mojo going.  Here are the two cards I made. 

The cards have a pocket with two tags.  

The tags are made using a Sizzix die cut. 

The watering can is a Memory Box die cut.  I used
Tim Holtz paper for the watering can for a rustic look. 

These are the tags distressed with ink and a button
and ribbon added to the top. 

Inside the card. 

The second card I added a flower pot and flowers.

It was so nice to be back in my craft room.  I hope to spend some more time there this week.  Enjoy your day.
