Lil Sweetie!

Hey gang! Just a quick post. made this card yesterday at my sister's request for her daughter's friend. Birthday parties all the time everywhere it seems!!  This cute image is from Lalaland Crafts. She's called Fancy Marci. Off to the city now to spend a few days with her and to deliver this card! I'm entering the following challenges: Scrapbook sisters (Mother's Day or Special Lady), the Paper Variety (1-2-3 make your Recipe) I used flowers, ribbon, gems; and Clear it Out (Flowers, Flowers). Have a great day!

Clean and Simple!

 

Hey there! Just wanted to share a clean and simple sympathy card I made last week for a friend. Brought me back to the days where you just stamped a sentiment or an image, added a ribbon and voilà! Actually I had some other ones made with other images, but they weren't right.  You forget how classy a simple card can look!

To make, I just ran a portion of the paper through the cuttlebug, using an embossing folder. The other bit of paper, I punched out with my MS doily border punch. I inked the sides, added stickles, ribbon, pearls and the cherry blossoms from WOC. Hope u like! xox Trisha

Shabby Chic!

Good morning! So happy to figure out what was wrong with my blog posts-just tiresome to troubleshoot! So, I made this card last night as I was totally inspired by Magnolia Down Under's challenge this week: (Shabby Chic with Lots of White), Stamp with Fun, Creative Craft Friends, Stamps Are Us, Sparkles Forum (Spring), House of Gilli (Pearls and ribbon), Paper Playtime (Anything Goes) and Scrappy Frogs (Flowers and Lace). I had these papers with punch outs from K&Company that fit the shabby chic look and everything else just kind of fell into place. Hope u like! xox Trish :)

Christmas Flowers!

Hey all! Happy Saturday! I'm so relieved that Spring Break is here! So, after battling this sore throat and stuffed up nose, sore chest for two weeks I finally went to the doctor's on Friday afternoon and I have a bad sinusitis,and a touch of bronchitis.  I spent $150.00 on an inhaler and antibiotics-no drinking wine for me this week, or spending money on card-making supplies-wah!! But, I wouldn't have gone if it weren't for the bleeding nose I got just before leaving to go to work. I had to cough out junk (sorry-very gross) and then when I blew my nose, it just unleashed a flood of blood! I freaked out-haven't had a bleeding nose in 12 years, since my first pregnancy with my son!! I freaked mostly because I got blood on my new favorite green shirt!!LOL So, that's what made me make the Dr's appointment-otherwise I would have toughed it out some more!! Sorry, if I've grossed you out!!
On a brighter note,  DCD's Christmas Club's challenge is to incorporate christmas flowers in your creation! I used thes beautiful poinsettias from prima and my roses are from WOC.
I'm entering Just Magnolia's Bingo challenge. I chose: flowers, lace and ribbon, gems; WinterWonderland (Oh, Bauble) My  Basic Grey paper has a bauble on it and Delicious Doodles (Loads of Flowers), Fussy and Fancy (use feathers/zipper) and If the Shoe Fits (Recipe: flowers, distress inks, clear bling).Hope u like! xox Trisha

Q is for 'Quiliting'

Hey gang! I feel like I've been absent for weeks, but it's only been 4 days! I'm battling something nasty in my chest and throat now and just in time for Spring Break next week!! Hopefully I feel better by the week-end!

This week's challenge at ABC Challenge is to incoroporate quiliting in your creation, be it real/faux stitching or your papers. We are sponsored by the Stamp Fairy this week, and the winner will win a $9.00 voucher for her images. This little cutie is called Lenny with flowers.

I also wanted to let you know that I am stepping down from the ABC design team, as I am involved in  whirlwind of activities during and after school. I've got my courses twice a week in the city, kiddies' after school actitvities-it's basically mayhem and I just didn't want to be producing rubbish for them, when I have so little time. Sorry to dissappoint any of you.

I'm entering the following challenges: A Spoonfull of Sugar (ribbon, jewels, pearls and flowers), Going Grey with Scrap-Creations (Spring has Sprung), Kaboodle Doodles (yellow, pink, blue and green,) Stamp with Fun (Spring), and Stamping Scrapping Central (pastels).
