hangin' out...

Good day! My wonderful hubby brought me a new soft soft bunny Free Smiley Courtesy of www.millan.net Isn't he cute?

And here is my messy corner... I have a couple projects that I have to finish by next Wednesday... I joined a group called the PaperTree Gang at my LSS, it's a group which meets once a month, and we try out different techinques or new products. Fun! But due to the wonderful New England snow storms, we were unable to meet for 2 months, so last month we got 2 kits instead of the usual of just 1 kit... and I haven't start either kits. LOL! Pressure is on!

Well, less talking. I just want to pop in and say hello and here is a card that I made with the Amuse landscape, sky writer, and sentiment Love in the Air.



Have a great weekend!

A little Therapy...

It's Wednesday's night, it's perfect for a little bit of me time! Hehe!!! =D

This is what I made for the Glenda's Random Amusing Challenge#13, I missed it last week... but not this week. YES!!!
Rules: I have to use ribbon, hardware, and punches....
Got it all! And I got to ink up my new Amuse stamps: Carrot stand and for some-bunny special.
Anybody want some CARROTS!


Card #2... I was going thru my pile of cardstock on my messy desk, then I found an image of Alice Anya (printed, ready to go, and calling me "color me!") and also found one of the design paper from the Return of Wonderland digital kits. So, I put this together. I LOVE this ribbon from the Landry Line!
P.S. No I am not crazy.... maybe crazy about stamps but don't worry the cardstock wasn't talking to me. LOL!

A relaxing Sunday!

After having a wonderful day hanging out with good friends and had a blast with VSN at SCS! Today is a day to just chill... I did a few more cards!


This is one of my favorite card! 4pm challenge: Sketch a Little Love. I was looking for something tiny.... the perfect stamps... The Brassiere stamp was calling me. And of course, thanks for your support is just perfect for this.

Another challenger 6pm challenge: LOVE starts with L. Lavender with Lime Green cardstock and L for lounge chair (stamp used: canvas chair). Sending you sunshine on a snowy day!

Finally, I have to break for coffee! 7pm challenge: Weave, weave, and weave us together!

Gardener DT Call

The Greeting Farm posted on Sunday for DT call, both Anya Team and Gardener DT...
I figured to give the gardener DT a try, what do I have to lose? I am a big fan of all the TGF stamps. I love Anya and Ian, and I know it is really hard to resist using Anya and Ian stamps. This way... it will give me an excuse to use other TGF stamps more. :-D


Ahhhh, the Cake Topper, one of my favorite stamp set. I want to have a Spring theme. They are so sweet. Super sharp powder blue tux and sparkle pretty pink dress.

The Pokey Trio are hilarious. They look like they are having tons of fun.... OMGosh, I just got another idea! Stay tune...

Well, off I go... before I forget :-P
wish me luck!

The swing girl is so sweet, she looks like she is having tons of fun... Reaching for the sky, it's totally true that the sky's the limit! I love the "cool shadow" background, complete with rectangle frames set. TFL!

XOXOXO

Happy Valentine Day! Hugs and Kisses! The Laughting Girl and Laughing Boy from tfg are perfect for today... and her cute little dog too. We can't forget our pets! Hehe. I went shopping at my LSS yesterday, got a bunch of goodies... included this cool cs from Basic Grey....

AND....


Yes! the new release of the Amuse stamps, YEEHAW!!!! I can't get my hands on the "long grass" *sad face*.... that's okay, Michelle (the awesome owner at the PaperTree) ordered it for me.

You simply ...

So sad that I missed Unity Hip Hop... but I was catching up with two of my good friends. I chatted on the phone for hours (just randon silly things, LOL!), lunch with my hubby, off to shopping with other good friend (didn't buy such, I did buy some nugget to decorate with...), then we all made dinner and had a wonderful time. What's a great day. Life is GOOD!

I did have a chance to make a card for HHH Friday. Just a simple card! I love the floral edge, just amazing.... it is just perfect for the sentiment Shine On! set. And can't forget a little bit of TLC (a tap of lemon yellow copic marker, a green bling, a little bit of sparkles with the stardusk gel pen, and a bright ribbon).

Have a great Friday!

Monday again.


Wow, what happened to the weekend? It went by so quickly, I had an awesome time with my hubby and friends on saturday... Chinese hot pot, so yummy! Sorry, forgot to take pictures, I was too busy eating. LOL! And yesterday, for some reasons I was sooooo tired. I was so lazy and didn't do anything other than eating, sleeping, and watching TV.
Here is my entry for the first sketch challenge for the Anya Fan Club. Great Sketch! I chose Mermaid Anya, she is my newest Anya. (I can't wait until Valentine Day, it's the release of the Miss Anyas, they are super cute!) Cardstock from Marcella by K and Disney, large pinking circles nestabilities, copic markers, diamond stickles, and pretty pearls.

Yippee...


It's here, chinese hot pot tonight! I am so ready for some GOOD EATS! Off to the grocery store... For the time being, chocolate is the answer! Hehe. These chocolate ice cream cones are making me hungry. :-D Maybe I should have a chocolate fondue for desert! I will try to take some pictures (no promises, I might be too busy stuffing my face, LOL!) :-P

Have a great Saturday.

So excited...


Yay, it's Friday! I am so excited about tomorrow night, we are going to have chinese hot pot... YUMMMM! If you don't know what is chinese hot pot? It is similar to a fondue, instead of cheese or chocolate, we use a soup base, and we cook tons of goodies... seafood, beef, chicken, veggies, noodles, etc... I can't wait!

Love in the Air

Today is one of those days... I just sat around the house, can't decide what to do! I sat at my craft area for most of the day, and only came out with one card, hehe! At least, I got some rest! :D I love this paper, it is from Kaiser craft, pretty in pink. The pink image stamp is from mft Boho blossoms, glitter sticker from K & Company. And the 50s sweethearts are from tgf. I sticked with the neutral tone from the cs. Ian and Anya look so in love, and they are sharing their fuzzy hot pink heart.

Monday, February 2, 2009

ahhh, so sweet!



Happy Monday! Monday is always hard, the weekend flew by so fast. I decided to make 2 sweet cards to brighten the day. The first one from Amuse, hearty gift from your secret admirer. And the second one is from the Greeting Farm newest digi stamps 50s sweethearts, so sweet! Ian & Anya 4-ever!

Double Up Sunday!!!

Yay!!! The Anya Fan Club is officially open today! So sad that I will miss all the fun, I have to work :-( ... Anyways, here is a card that I made in celebration of the New Anya Fan Club. Hurray, so excited. The paper is from Basic Grey Pattern Paper Eva, I can't find the matching colored flowers, so I airbrushed a bunch of white flowers, hehe... I love airbrushing with my copic markers. Plus, got to add some diamond stickles and pink spinkle dots.


I just love this "little" guy. He only needs a little love... or just give him chocolate! hehe...
Do I have to say more... :-D
