Card Share

Hello all! Happy sunny Sunday (at least it is sunny here & it is beautiful – but COLD!)  Maybe these will help warm you up a bit!  All cardstock is Bazzill Designs, all patterned papers are Gin-X.  Loved her stuff, wish she would have stuck around.  Got to meet her once, very sweet, down-to-earth lady!

Just some punched scraps & a rectangle.  Perfect for adding a needed sentiment later.  And sanding, I love sanding!

Very cute, very simple.  Just some layered torrn paper, a flower & a brad.  Flower is Paper Studio, brad is Making Memories.

Just some left-over rectangles.  Flower is Jo-Anns, Brad is Making Memories.

Just good, ole paper here, lightly sanded.  Just add thought later.

Very simple, quick projects to do & what a way to use up left-over scraps from other projects.  I always do that.  And so I very seldomly have to buy a card.

Got some more product cooking for the shop, but took a break to do some scrapping and some organizing.

Tia's Retreat Book

Hello everyone!  Here is a simple little mini book I made for our retreat a couple years back for a friend who attended.  Very fun!  All papers are MME and the cardstock is Bazzil Basics.

Some doodlebug stickers & a flower from the dollar store.  The rub-on is Chatterbox.

A post-it note makes a nice little journal spot.  Sticker is Art Warehouse.

Scrapworks Hug, some ribbon, Bazzill Chip topper & I’m not sure where the square stickers came from.

Acrylic Piece from Joann’s.  Cross sticker from Jolee’s & the quote was from some KI Memories paper that I cut out.  Flower is Prima.

Ribbon, and the metal tag was from a Christmas collection from DCWV.

Thanks so much for looking!

Cards, Cards & more Cards!

I’ve been working on ways to streamline my process and get to where I am actually doing less but sharing more.  Sometimes it involves tough choices of maybe just not sharing everywhere, and sometimes it’s about using technology to work for you instead of against you.  My twitter connection is still all dorked up, but luckily my posterous is working great!  So enough of all of that boring stuff, here are some of the cards I’ve been working on & that have been accumulating in my “need to share” list…..

All cards have the following supplies: Bazzill Basics Cardstock (various texture/color) and My Mind’s Eye patterned paper.  The products that vary are listed after the card.


GenX alphabet stickers.  I LOVE the fact that they are BIG!

Twitter -> FB update broken #bzdesign

Just wanted to let you know I had tweeted a few things that did not get updated onto FB properly.  Come to find out the link between my two accounts is broken.  I’m trying to get it resolved, but all I’m getting is that “twitter is over capacity”. Sigh…. But I promise I won’t give up!  The important part was to just let you all know that packages have been shipped out & most of you should already have them.  Thanks so much!

Rubber Stamps Listed!

OK, I was going to go the Amazon route, but unless I misunderstand, I have to pay $40/month to list something that is all mine.  If I want to list a duplicate of something that is already there, there is just a listing fee.. What?!?! Not so entrepreneurial-minded if you ask me! So, their loss, I listed them on esty instead.  I'm so excited to see something that is completely my artwork out there!

Amusement Layout


Here's a layout a did a couple years back from our first family vacation.  We went to Gatlinburg.  Ben had a ton of fun riding the rides and the people running them were so sweet because they just let him keep riding over  over.  Love the big circles, the big Basic Grey label plate, memorabilia & my handwriting.

Thanks for looking!

Just a couple of quick cards I made using some scraps that were left over from another project.  I know they are blurry.  Yes, that is my handwriting.

 

  

Quick & easy, my favorite kinds!  Thanks for looking!

Mini Phone Book

This is a little book I made for Ben back when he was trying to learn people's addresses & phones.  I haven't found an easy way to update it, as it has changed considerably.  A 3 ring might have been better?

 
He picked out all the papers that he wanted to use.

 

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

I think if I did one again, I would just have lined paper on the one side & let him write it, and in a 3 ring.  That way it can be changed/updated & capture his handwriting.
