Sunday's Class Projects!

So this last Sunday was the class that I do every other month here at my house! We did 2 different projects and made a little punch to add to our punch books!

The first project we worked on was this little gift card holder. I got the idea from Chic n' Scratch. You can go to her website and she has a step by step video tutorial..isn't that so cool! Just click on her blog name above and it will take you right to it! In the class we used the lion & sentiment stamp from the set called Life's a Jungle..they have adorable jungle animals in this set and it is from Close to my Heart.


The next project we worked on was a coupon book. How many of you save coupons and then forget them at home and when you get to the store say OH DARN IT! haha! Well I do this all the time! So now I have this little book to keep in my purse so that I never forget them coupons again! This idea came from the talented Valerie's tangle's blog..she was so super sweet to let me teach this to the ladies in my class! Thank you so much Valerie the ladies loved it! We used paper from the scrapbook kit called Boom-di-ada...it's also from Close to my Heart!



And here is the little cutie that we added to our punch books! We do one every other month when we meet up. Isn't this little chicky so cute?

Come back and visit tomorrow I will have some sneak peeks from Sassy Studio's NEW release. And please stop over at the Sassy Studio Designs blog there is going to be a big party going on Sat. Aug 1st with lots of prizes and fun this so for more info click on over.

Thank you fairy much!

WOWZERS! today has been a HOT one! There for a while I thought I was melting like the wicked witch haha! It's horrible...I can't wait till winter.

I worked on two cards today with some digital images that I purchased a couple months back and never got a chance till now to play with them. I regret waiting this long to use them they are simply adorable! They are from All that Scraps called Swiss Pixies you can view and purchase them here aren't they adorable?!? You can purchase them as a rubber stamp or digital image. Isn't that great?

The first card I did was inspired by sketch #23 that Card Patterns has posted here. Join in the fun you have a chance to win some goodies if you do! The second card is done with their bonus sketch #26..I just flipped it!

Feelin Sassy!

I didn't make any cards today but I wanted to come on and share with you a card that I made the other day.

Last last night I started cleaning my craft room...When I say clean I mean CLEAN! haha! I tore the whole thing apart. Everything off the shelves to dust and I moved all the furniture to vacuum under everything. WOW! does it look good! I'm so happy that I did this because it made me organize things and put stuff where it belongs. Makes me want to go in there right now and create! hehe! but it's late so I won't but tomorrow Trish is coming over so we will make some fun stuff and spend a little time in there.

Anyways, back to the card that I made. I used a digital image from Sassy Studio Designs it's called Sassy Cassie...isn't she just adorable and SO Sassy? She's one of the newest images that was just released in the store not to long ago and is up for sale here.

Cards...Trish & I made yesterday!

Happy Friday! or maybe it's not so happy :(...but, I'm trying. I'm kind of down today...My Uncle that passed away in April well I miss him a lot. I called my Aunt today to ask her if she wanted to go to dinner tonight. It just breaks my heart thinking how much she missing him and I miss him so much too. I know that he's in a better place but, it's been so hard. I think of him so much and wish he could still be here with us.

As I mentioned yesterday in my last blog...Trish and I got together to make up some pretties and I wanted to share them with you all. On the two first cards we used the new color in colors from Stampin Up...aren't they beautiful colors? We also used the new ribbon to match.."drool" I just love the polka dot ribbon! I'm thinking I want to do my next blog banner in them colors...I just love them so much they are so fun and cheerful! The stamp set we used is one of the newest level 2 sets called Wings of Friendship.

The last two cards I made for my Grandmother that lost her sister a few weeks back. Those two cards are using the old in colors. We used the sets called thoughts & prayers and pocket silhouettes also from Stampin Up. Sorry for the poor pictures I took of them...My Mom was picking them up and I took the pictures really fast.

(the card above...we used sketch #22 from Card Pattern to inspire us! They have some fun sketch challenges stop on by the blog and check them out.)


(the card above we used Mojo Monday sektch #94..I really enjoyed this sketch. If you haven't already checked Mojo Monday's card sketch's out go right now and take a look you won't be sorry you will love them all!)

If I can get off my butt I will post a card that I want to get done for Sassy Studio Designs! Lindsay just opened her store..check out her digital designs...she's AWESOME!

Hope you all have a WONDERFUL weekend!

Helloooo Kitty!

Today wasn't a perfect day...last night I went to bed with a HORRIBLE sore throat. I tossed and turned all night long. It hurt so bad to swallow and drink anything...I was afraid I was getting strep so, I drank some hot tea with honey real slow and took an antibiotic since I had a refill from the last time I had an infection. Today I feel a tiny bit better but still not 100% I'm hoping that medication kicks in no matter what it is I have.

This Sat. is Amanda's sweet 16th birthday! This is Trish's adorable daughter that I simply adore. I thought I'd make her a card...she loves the little goth hello kitty so I printed out a coloring page image of hello kitty from online and added a digital skull that I had from Toxic Desirez she makes awesome digital scraps to use for online tags and digital scrapbooking!

Stay tuned for tomorrow's post...Modern Sugar Blvd. is releasing a bunch of new digital images and I will have some cards to show you done with some of the new stuff!
