Happy Holidays?!?!?!?

It's that time again....  Halloween is over and Christmas is in full swing never mind that Holiday called Thanksgiving.  Now I am working on both Christmas and Thanksgiving cards and projects not to mention WEDDING things going on everywhere.  Not to mention the homemade holiday items that still need made!!!!  So what do I do... I take a workshop on top of all of that but quite honestly I am excited about this because I am always at a loss for new and different holiday card designs... I tend to find one and make a million of them which there is nothing wrong with that but this workshop will help me make different cards/projects for everyone on my list and also gives me time for me everyday!!!

Oh here is the link to the workshop... 

So here is a card  I made today:

So who would have thought that you could add Halloween and Christmas together.. not me, until I made a list of things I wanted to make for people for Christmas, because let's face it with the wedding, and Steven living in Idaho Falls, Hunter and I here, two mortgages and a rent payment, plus food and living for 2 households ummmm money is a bit tight here...so I am going to do a handmade Christmas this year. So I am recycling some books that we have that are to young for my children and decided to make some bookmarks to go with them.  Here is one using a Dilly Beans image.  No I am not that cheap they will get other things but what else am I to do with these books, I would rather give them to people I know as opposed to a thrift store!!! Which there is nothing wrong with thrift stores I love them but you know what I mean!!!

This image I got from Delicious Doodles a long time ago and it is drawn so well that I hate to color it so I used some antique linen distress ink and covered the whole image then added some orange marmalade stickles to make the flames shine a bit. I also used the stickles on the crown with a few little gems/rhinestones in orange and the gems/rhinestones on the corners as well.

Halloween Greetings for the kiddies!!!  Now I have to say the fly is an inkadinkado stamp that I cut apart and at first I didn't know if I would like it but I do ... I really do!!  It has actually been my favorite so far!!!  I am by no means a fan of real flies but this little stamp is a favorite of mine... Don't worry I didn't kill the stamp, clear stamps fit back together perfectly when you cut them apart!!!

So this year I am doing something totally different... I am sending out the cards I made for Halloween this year...I know, pick your jaw up off the floor, close your mouth your catching flies... the world hasn't stopped turning.  I am sending to nieces and nephews so they couldn't be to creepy then I remembered that I bought some Halloween things on clearance last year and there were all these little post cards in there with cute little brads and buttons.  My only dilemma is that they weren't stamps.  So I started rummaging and found some tiny inkadinkado stamps and some old stampin up rollers and thought... borders!!!  So there ya go!

Wicked Wednesday ATC challenge AND Bombshell stamps Color Challenge

A Bombshell color challenge... Alison always picks awesome color pallets for us to use on our monthly color challenges and this month was no different, although a challenge for me kinda/sorta because of the bright colors... 
Well they are bright for me... So here is what I made following the Bombshell Sketch for this month...and using Butterfly Dreams from Bombshell stamps 




It's time again for another challenge!!!  Head over to the WWATC blog for all the yummy details... Here is what I made:


This cute little image is by Time For Tea

She was colored with copic markers and the background is made with Washi tape.  I wanted it to look like she was sitting in front of a wall/stack of books!!!

Today's Bento Box

Today's lunch consisted of hard salami, cheddar and Monterrey
jack cheese, graham crackers, gold fish and carrot sticks... The verdict when he got home... "My lunch was awesome today"..  That makes me happy!!!!!!!!!!!!

Saturday, August 16, 2014

I has a Happy and I has a Sad

OK my Happy is that my son has finally decided that it is OK to take lunches to school again... I don't know why he stopped and I don't know why he preferred that food over food from home... healthier food from home... Just because they don't fry it at school doesn't mean it wasn't fried before it was frozen somewhere in the factory.....  anyway that is my opinion...  you don't have to agree...

So yeah my sad... MY BABY STARTED 10th GRADE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So we are not doing your regular lunches either... my baby boy is fascinated with all things Japanese....  His lunch box is a bento box and we are making everything into rolls for lunch... which is OK with me as long as I know where the food came from!!!  So we started school on Thursday, which my sister the teacher says is a great time to start, and we made a  cream cheese veggie roll with some apple bites...

Now I admit it is not as pretty as the sushi bar, and didn't stay tight like the sushi bar, but for our first attempt I think it turned out quite well.... 

Friday we made a PB no J roll... I took my rolling pin and flattened out the bread, put the PB on and rolled... For some reason he doesn't like the J with the PB... IDK...  anyway to go with that he had gold fish, graham crackers, and a nectarine...

I Finally Did It!!!

For forever and a day I have wanted to go to Donna Downey Studios in NC... well I finally did it and not only did I just go I took an awesome class there... bonus I got to have a 3 day weekend to myself!!!

My class was awesome!!!  It was with Anna Dabrowska (Finnabair)!!!  By the way she is awesome!!!  It was actually 4 classes rolled into two days and they were great days, I met some wonderful ladies that weekend...

Here are the projects I worked on that weekend:

This is my new Finnabair Journal... Anna is very generous with her products in her classes!!

close up

My first page:  I usually do not like pictures of myself but this was a good one I think!

My new friend Evelyn let me use one of her photos because i didn't bring  variety like everyone else did... I didn't know!!  LOL  anyway my favorite movie ever is The Wizard of Oz so she let me use her image of Judy!!!  Thank you EVELYN!!! This is the 2nd page in my new journal!

A beautiful canvas we made, again with that picture of me!!!  Love the light colors because I usually don't do light colors!!!

2nd Canvas.  This image is from a new friend Ellie... I chose this one because of the intensity of her eyes!!!  

That was one wonderful weekend of art making!!!!  I highly recommend that you take a finnabair class whenever you can!!!  I also highly recommend that you go visit Donna Downey studios as well!!!!
