This Little Piggy says Thanks!

  Hello, Glad you could stop by. Wanted to share with you my excitement.  Lynda Falconer (Crafter Inspired)  had a giveaway on her facebook page because she had hit 2000 subscribers and I was the winner. Who Hoooooo!

I was so excited and shocked. I won the new Adorable stamp set from Stampin Up called This Little Piggy. Oh It's so Cute!!! She also sent me a few foil snowflakes and a beautiful Christmas Card and envelope. 

 Here Is what she sent me.



How sweet Is she!!! Being that Lynda was so sweet and generous, I just had to make her a thank you card using the cute set.

So here Is the card that I made her.







Isn't that little piggy so cute! I had so much fun making this. I actually made two just a like. 

Here are the things I used to make It-

This little piggy stamp set

Cardstock- Pink, Whisper White and Kraft 

Patterned paper from paper pack called Sweet Summer

Stitched Circle Dies

Embossing Folder- Seeing Spots

Square punch for banner

I used tiny strips of kraft card stock to stick behind the circle. Tried to make It look like hay. 

Hope you enjoyed seeing my card today. Have a wonderful week and If you get a chance check out Lynda's facebook page Crafter Inspired. She makes wonderful cards.  Glad you could stop by. Happy Thanksgiving to you all. Bye, and God bless

Painted Harvest Birthday Card!

 Hello, Thanks for stopping by. Spent the day with my husband and sister. Did a little shopping. Went In Hobby Lobby. They had 80% off of their Halloween decorations. That was so fun! 
Also went to the dollar store. Those little things for a dollar add up real quick. Had a good lunch at Olive Garden. Then ended up going to the Wal-Mart. I have a really bad back and knee. I seriously didn't think I was going to make It. I was never so glad to get home and rest.

 Well enough about my day, I want to Share a Card that I made for my Daughter. My little girl Is now 33. It actually doesn't seem that long ago that I was 33. Time goes by to way to fast. 

For the card that I made her, I used the new stamp set from Stampin Up called Painted Harvest. LOVE- LOVE-LOVE this Stamp Set. 
As soon as I seen It, I knew I had to have It.





She LOVED It! I knew she would. She always places her Birthday Cards from me on her large window ledge. She has 5 sitting there now. I'm already thinking what kind I will make her next year.

Here Is a list of things I used to make the card.

Stamp Sets-
Painted Harvest, Well Scripted and Itty Bitty Backgrounds
Cardstock- Crumb Cake, Summer Sun, Very Vanilla
Ink- Cajun Craze, Summer Sun, Early Expresso, Old Olive
Ribbon and Siquins

Loved the way It turned out. Looking forward to playing with different color combinations with the flowers.

That's It for me. I'm exhausted and In pain, going to go make me a cup of coffee and nothing else.  Thanks for stopping by. 




My Beautiful Daughter Jade!

Halloween Test Tube Treat Holders and Tags

 Hello, Thanks for stopping by. Was hoping to get this post In yesterday on Halloween, but It just didn't happen. I never know how many Trick or Treater's I will get. On average around 16. This year I only got 8. I was kind of disappointed. ( I can predict that I will be eating some little chocolate candy bars later today). 

My Grand Children, this year was a Black Cat and some scary looking guy, I think It was Jason. Not really Into the scary movies. But Walker thought it was fun and Scarlett looked so cute In her Black kitty outfit.

I made them some treat bags,with some goodies In It. Also had toothbrush and toothpaste In It. Made a cute little tag that say's BRUSH YOUR FANGS. So Cute! The Fangs stamp is from Stampin Up. Also I made them little treat holders and put the test tubes In them from Stampin Up and filled them with a little candy.

Here are a few pictures I took before they got here.





 Also used the new Cat Punch from Stampin Up. Stamped Oct 31st on stitched circles. Used Halloween Twine around one cats neck.
Rounded the corners of the treat box with the envelope punch board.

Those were so simple and fun to make. It uses a piece of 4x11 cardstock. There Is a video on youtube that I followed to make these. 
If you would like to try making some, there are several video's of them. Just type in Test Tube Treat Holders.  












Thought those little tags were so Cute. Colored them with Stampin Up Markers. Added a little red to the pointed teeth. Tied them with Bakers Twine.


I forgot to get a picture of Walker and Scarlett (What was I thinking) but my daughter took one, so thought I would share a photo of them.






Walker has got the scary look down for sure and that's the cuttest Black Kitty I have ever seen. They are getting so big. 

Now that Halloween Is over, let the Christmas Music begin!!!!! 
Honestly I have already been listening to It. (LOVE IT)!!!


Thanks for stopping by and hope you stop by again. Happy Day to you and God Bless.
