Odds and Ends!

Things been crazy around here lately.

My workplace is moving into a new building

and my youngest son is playing football

for the Middle School Traveling Squad.

Between moving and football

there has been hardly any time to play

in my stamp room.

But I found some time to get at

least two cards done.

This Vintage Archery Birthday Card was for

my youngest son's (girl) friend.

Both of them are archery enthusiasts and

shooting for their schools archery teams.

And this card is for a friend of mine

who is been laid up after knee surgery and

is has been using a walker to help her get around.

Hopefully not for much longer!

I hope she isn't getting to mad at me!?

Pinwheel Doily!

Hurray!

I finished the Doily last weekend.

Starched and ironed it

crowns the top of our

couch now!

Catching up!

Trying to catch up on some

unfinished projects.

Do you have some of

them laying around your house?

I do, quiet a few to be honest!

I started this crochet doily

a very very long time ago.

Well lets keep your fingers crossed,

my goal is to finish it this weekend :)

Wedding Wishes!

Something old,

something new,

something borrowed,

something blue,

wedding wishes

just for you!

Old lace, blue rhinestones and

a hand sewn flower

for this vintage looking card.

A Little Weekend Project!

Hope everyone is having a great weekend?

With the weather a little on the iffy side we decided

to just skip yard-work today.

The guys went to the County Fair

and I stayed home to play

with my new die cut.

This little bird is Sizzix's Score Board Die by Eileen Hull.

I deco-paged him with old book pages,

added some crackle paint and lace.

You can't really see it but he sits on an old vine cork.

Thanks for stopping by.

Hope you have a great weekend.

Bonjour de Paris!

"Bonjour de Paris!"

is a mixed media project

I been working on for awhile.

I deco-paged the front of an

old composition notebook with

old book pages

and then just added odd and ends.

Stamped images, embellishments,

die-cut Eiffel Tower and lace.

I also added this puzzle piece.

Just deco-page old book pages onto

your puzzle piece, stamp sentiment and

decorate.

VOILA!

A gorgeous eye candy!

Life's to short!

This easel card was so much fun to make.

I used the girlfriends stamp (Shoppers front) from

Art Impressions and the sentiment

"Life's to short to act normal!" also

from Art Impressions.

"The best is yet to be" was a Stampin'Up! stamp.

For the license plate I just added a Happy Birthday.

Aren't the girls just adorable?
