Here is another card using the "Scrapbook Statements-Women" stamp set. 
The paper is a crushed velvet from a paper packet I got
from Costco a long time ago.  The ribbon is a Recollection set. 


The shoe is a CTMH stamp.

As women I am sure glad we don't wear high heels everywhere
 like our Mother's and Grandmothers did in those days.  LOL


Inside the card
Thank you for stopping by today.  You have a fabulous day!!

Happy Wednesday to you.  Today's card is made using a new stamp set from CTMH, a heart punch and oval die cut. 
The dress is made by punching a heart and oval out of CS.
The oval is cut in half, then I embossed and distressed it.
I glued it to the heart and wrapped lace around where I
attached them together giving it a waist line.  I added
two pieces of CS for the top straps. 

Of course I had to add bling to the dress and card.


The stamp set is "Scrapbook Statements-Women" #B14201
page 90 in the new CTMH catalog.

Make sure to check back tomorrow for another statement from this same stamp set.  Hope you have a wonderful day!!

Prayer, fasting and almsgiving

 We celebrated Ash Wednesday in the Catholic Church last week. It's a time of prayer,
 fasting and almsgiving. I thought this would be a good card to start the 40 days of Lent. 
I just received these stamp sets from SU.
I stamped the praying hands and distressed it with ink. 

 I used a die cut and cut out a piece of brown CS and 
glued it over the hands.  

Wrapping the card with brown ribbon, I then attached the
saying and paper flowers. 


Have a Blessed day!

My daughter made some homemade gifts for her boyfriend and for her dog Bella for Valentines Day. 
Rice Krispy treats made using a funnel from Tupperware.
(The funnel is showings it's age look at that orange color...LOL)

She covered  them in foil to look like Hershey's kisses. 

She printed out the paper toppings. 
 
She made a Rose Bouquet of Bacon.
Yes you read it right.  It's BACON. 

Does it look like the a real Rose?


These are homemade dogie treats. 

This dog cutter was given to me from my sister-in-law Pauline. 

Stephanie frosted them with yogurt and peanut butter. 

She packaged them up and gave them to Bella's dog cousins. 
She did a great job on her homemade gifts don't you think?  Have a super great week!!!

Happy Friday to you all!!  The card I am sharing today is a very simple white and black note card. 
I cut the squares using punches, layered them and attached the flowers. 
 The white zig-zag is made with a punch.
I added a string of white pearls between  them and added the bow. 



This card could be used for almost any occasion so I left it
blank  to be stamped as I need it. 
May your weekend be filled with family and friends.  Hope you can set aside time for crafting.  God Bless.
