Fantastic Foliage Card for Mom!

Hello Crafty Friends, So happy that you stopped by. Are you all getting ready for Thanksgiving? We are going to one of my Sister's for Thanksgiving so I only have to take a couple of things for the dinner. One of the things I'm going to make is Corn Casserole. Now I can not think of what else I am going to take. Probably a dessert. Was going to make Pumpkin Pies. Someone else is bringing some. So as of right now, I have no clue. 

Have any of you had Corn Casserole? I LOVE It! But I have one sister that thinks it is one of the most disgusting foods that their is. (I personally think she's not normal). Christy I hope you read this.  Would love to hear some things that you are making this year.

So on to my Card that I wanted to share with you all. I made a Card for my Mom's Birthday.

I made her Card using the Stamp Set (Fantastic Foliage) from Stampin Up. 
I also used S.U. Stamp Sets- 
Itty Bitty Backgrounds and Sincere Salutations

Cardstocks- 
Old Olive, Chocolate Chip and Very Vanilla

Inks-
Old Olive, Cranberry Crisp,Summer Sun,More Mustard,  
Close to Cocoa,Chocolate Chip, Pumpkin Pie,Really Rust,
and Creamy Caramel.

   Punches-
S.U. Lacy Border Punch, Lg. Scallop Oval and Lg, Oval

Also used-
Edge Distresser and More Mustard Grosgrain Ribbon

 


Also thought I would share a picture that was taken last Sunday. My Niece McKinley was in a School play called Princess Whatshername and she played Snow White. 
My little Grand Daughter surprised McKinley and dressed like Snow White to. 

I thought they looked so cute in their Snow White Costumes. 

Thanks so much for taking the time to visit and hope you come back again. Happy Day to you and hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your loved ones.     Cindy

A sticky and gooey Birthday Card!

Hi, Glad you could stop by. Can you believe that It's already November? The days are flying by to quick. Starting to think of Thanksgiving and already getting in the Christmas spirit.

 The day after Halloween I was leaving for work and turned on the radio and heard Christmas music. They were going to play it all day. Now that may seem to early for some people. But not me. I Loved It. I was singing along, taping my hand on the steering wheel and bopping my head to the music. Now I'm sure I looked like a crazy person to anyone that may have seen me.

I am already wanting to put my Christmas Tree up. You know If you put it up early,you get to enjoy it. I have heard of people putting their tree up on Christmas Eve. Are you kidding!!!! Just Crazy.

 I am just a little chatty cathy today and I told myself that this was going to be a quick post because there are annoying things to do like Dishes and housework. and need to get those things done so that I can finish a Card that I'm making for my Mom's Birthday that is coming up in a few days.

So before I go let me share a Card that I made for my daughter Jade for her birthday.

My daughter made some Caramel Apples a few weeks ago, so I thought she would enjoy this.

I used the Create a Critter Cartridge for the Apple and used my Gypsy to weld it together. I cut the Apple out again in More Mustard cardstock and drew drips on it and cut it out by hand.
Used Real Red Cardstock for the apple and sponged it in Ruby Red Ink. Sponged the Caramel with More Mustard Ink.
I used a corner rounder for the top of the stick and made it in Close to Cocoa Cardstock. Used a white gel pen to make it look a little shiny.
I think it turned out cute and it was fun to make.



I also thought I would share a picture of my Grand Children Walker and Scarlett when they were out Trick or Treating.

Again Thanks for visiting. Hope you liked seeing the card I made and hope that you will come back soon. Have a good and creative day.  Cindy

Halloween Cards!!!

Hi and So glad you could come by to visit. It's Halloween, The day when all the Ghost, Gobblins and Ghouls come out to play and who knows what else will be lurking around. 
It's raining here today in Indiana and going to have some severe weather later. Because of the weather they have changed the Trick or Treating to Saturday. Glad they decided to change it. Saturday we are suppose to get extremely cold weather. Hate when all the kids have to cover up their costumes with big heavy coats. 

I have been so busy that I had decided not to make my Grand Children Halloween Cards, until my Grand Daughter Scarlett seen a Halloween Stamp Set that I have and told me that's what she wanted on her Card. 

Did I have the heart to tell her that I wasn't making them cards this year. Ahh I don't think so, In their eyes I'm the best Grandma ever. I could never let them think other wise. Right!

For Walker's Card I knew I had to put a Cat on it. He Loves Cat's and he loves my Black Cat Nelson. So his card was pretty simple. Just laid a circle on white card stock. Sponged S.U. Going Grey Ink to look like clouds. Stamped a black cat. Wish I had embossed it. Oh well. and I made a fence using the Mini Monsters Cartridge and embossed it with a wood grain folder. 

For Scarlett's Card, I used the Stamp Set that she wanted. I got it at Hobby Lobby. Made by Hobby Lobby.  
Punched out a circle and laid it on top of the Cardstock and sponged inside the circle with Summer Sun and more mustard Inks. Also used Eggplant Envy, Pumpkin Pie, Old Olive, Black and Close to Cocoa Inks. Wanted to girly it up a little so I added a Scallop Border and added some google eyes for fun.

So there is my quick Cards that I made. Hope you have a Spook-tackular Day and come visit me again.   Cindy

Where's Fall???

Freezing! Freezing! Freezing! Fall is my favorite time of the year and I have waited a whole year to enjoy it again. Well where is it??? I would Love to know. It's going to be 30 degrees tonight and frost and a hard freeze tomorrow night and flurries.  I don't care for the cold weather of Winter and that's exactly what it feels like. I can't take it!  I just might do something drastic like scream. Oh, It's going to be a long Winter. Blah!!!!

To get my mind off of the ridiculously Cold weather. Let me share a Card with you that I made.


                                       

Just looking at this Card. It makes me feel a little warmer.  Not really, But I'm going to tell myself that anyway.
I made this Card using a Stamp Set from Stampin Up called Greenhouse Garden. The Happy Birthday stamp is from the S.U. Set called Well Scripted.
The white Cardstock was cut out using the Top Note Die and I embossed it with the Victoria Embossing Folder. 
I used Lavender Lace Ink on the flowers and added Dazzling Diamond Glitter to them. 

So glad you took the time to visit. Would love for you to come back. Stay warm my Crafty Friends. I think it's time for me to go get a hot cup of cocoa.    Bye, Cindy

Walker turns 8 and Winner of Blog Hop!

Hey, So glad that you could stop by , Hope you all are doing well.  My Grandson Walker turned Eight years old the other day. His Party was held yesterday and he had an Army Themed Birthday Party. He loves anything Military and has been saying that he was going to join since he was about 3 years old. A few years ago he told me again that he was going to be in the Army when he gets big. I told him that I really didn't want him to. He said Mamaw you don't understand. The Army saves the People,Trees and the Kitty's. I had to laugh. It was so Cute.
The whole front yard was made into (Boot Camp). Where all of the kids had to go through all kinds of opsticles. We also made Dog Tags for everyone to wear. They had a really good time. A real Army Soldier came to see him to. He Loved It. 

Thought I would share his Card that I made him.

Hello and welcome to the   Cricut Crafts Blog Hop! So glad that you could make It! If you just happened to come by my Blog and would like to hop along. You can start at the beginning at  Jenny's (Crazy about Cricut) Blog.

I Love my Cricut and We (My Cricut Machine)and I was so excited to be a part of this Hop. I call my Cricut (Cricky Girl). Do you all have names for your Cricuts?

I made two Cards for this Hop. The First one is very special. I made it for my Grandma Sophie's 100th Birthday. She Loved her Card!



                                                     

Cricut Cartridges that I used-

Flowers- Paisley Cartridge
Leaves- Flower Shoppe
Banner- Can't remember
Number 100- Cricut Classic Font

 I adhered all of the tiny Blue Flowers with Crystal Effects on to 5 different sized circles. With foam tape in between each one. I also sponged each petal with Bashful Blue Ink.
After I cut the leaves,I wet them with a little water and scrunched them up. After they dried I sponged Old Olive Ink on them.


For my second Card- I made a Phone Shaped Card. I used the Wild Card 2 Cartridge. 
I added a second handle on top of the first one and added Foam Tape. I also added foam tape under the dial. 



                                                

                                                   

I thought it turned out Cute! I Love phones like this. They bring back a lot of memories for me. One of my Sister's still uses one of these. I Love using it when I visit her.

Happy 100th Birthday!!

Hi, So glad you could stop by. I am a little late getting this posted, but I wanted to share with you all that my Grandma Sophie just celebrated her 100th Birthday. She is such a wonderful woman and has been such a great role model. She was so excited that they had a full page all about her in our home town paper. She had always said if I make it to 100, I would like my picture in the paper. So she was just tickled to have a whole page.

We had her a big Birthday party at her farm. Had the food catered so that no one would have to cook and some of the family played Blue Grass and Gospel Music. It was just a fun day.

So Thankful to God for blessing her with a long life. Thought I would share a few pictures of her party.
