Circles Day- Use Polka Dots!I

Happy mid-week peeps!
We starting off a new challenge over at DoubleClick Skittles Challenge,we are also switching on this next term.   I'm now on Team A prior to being on Team B.   For this challenge we are doing the theme " Use Polka Dots".   This is another freebie digital image that I got sometime ago and I'm not sure where it came from....Oops on that, but thank you anyway, love doing cards with animals on them.    
The dotted papers are from Pebbles and of course those new skittles are Sailboat blue and you can get them from Carries store right here.  They are so easy to apply on with just a dab of diamond glaze  or anything that is tacky.   Colored this Elfie with Shinhan twin markers a Stampin Up markers.  Added some ribbon and rhinestones and punch the edge border with my EK punch.... Another card for my stash box!

Thanks for stopping by and we hope to see you on this fun challenge!

Working on some stocking stuffers!

Here is one of those hand  sanitizer's that I'm making for stocking stuffers.   Quick and easy!

Will post more as I get caught up with my other in between projects that I'm working on.

Need a Desk Caddy!

Here's a desk caddy that I made and will be giving this away as a gift.   When I first saw this on Pinterest I new that I wanted to make one.   Thank you so very much Suzy for sharing this tutorial with me.    Since this was my first tester I decided to make this for my friend (Summer) who is actually my masseur.  I may say that this actually turned out so perfect, and I made it sit on a base like Suzy had hers and laid that base on a heavy chipboard that I had.  So it's really sturdy!   Love it so very much, and I'll be making a couple more for some teacher's gifts for Christmas and of course one for me so I can put it on my desk too!  Seems like I'm a bit bragging about it, yes I am, LOL!  It's just gorgeous in real I'm just so amazed.  And this is  from no cut file from any of those fancy Cameo's just my Fiskars trimmer and my scoring board.  So many possibilities in decorating it too.
What's so cute about it, their  is a little stand for a calendar..... Cute idea!
Well I hope I've inspired you on this fantastic project!  Thanks for peeking in and see ya back here again soon!

2015 Card Swap!

Hello peeps~
It's been a long time since I did a card swap so I'm back in the swing and will be opening it up again for 2015!  Yippee!
For those who are wondering or scratching their heads it's basically doing a swap with a partner that will be assigned to you.   The project can be made up of anything you desire from a tag, bookmark, a simple card or even something you made that is still in good shape, LOL!  
The only junky part about it, this will be open to US residents only.  I'm so sorry , but it can be a bit costly, or going through customs just to have something mailed out.  And it does take a long time sending or receiving anything from international.
Since the swap will start in January the theme will be "Anything New, Celebration, Happy, etc.".   

Here are some small rules that needs to be followed:
1) You need to have a blog and you are active with it
2) You will have to be a follower and a follower to your swap partner 
3) Your project for your partner will have to be received by the due date, or this may cause a disqualification on your end in more future entry's in my card swap.

So far, doesn't this sound like a fun thing to do.   If this is something that you may be interested in and  having fun with just leave me a comment here or send me an email.
The more participants the funner it gets.
If you want to sign up please leave your current info below if it's something personal that you don't want to share you can send me an email or leave a message on my Facebook!
Sorry I don't do instagram or twitter!  LOL~
Just a  note, you can include a little token to your partner.  Again no pressure in the swap you are not forced to include anything if you don't want to.   We all love receiving happy mails especially if you have never received one. 
I would like to have everyone receive their happy mail by the 15th of each month.  If for any reason you can't meet the deadline you will have to give your partner a courtesy email and notify he/she that you can't get your mail out on time.   If this become a continuous part on your end for missing more that once you automatically will be disqualified.  
This will be a month to month thingy so if you feel you don't want to enter the next month swap it's all good.  For example when it comes February the theme will be "Hearts, colors of your choices in red, white or pink".  
Thank you peeps !
I will be getting out more deets  on this  swap again soon.

Spooky Challenge~

It's Team B's turn to start off the last week of the Spooky challenge over at Double Click Skittles Challenge!

For my colors I focused more on the black/orange.

Happy new week peeps~
Hope you all had a super weekend - it's been crazy hot & humid here at least on my side of the island... For those on the higher elevations yes it's a lot cooler!  LOL!
I found some time over the weekend after re-arranging my craft room by getting into my holiday containers and sorting my supplies together.   So I decided to work on my first Christmas card by using this digital image I had on file from (Wee Stamps).   Aw it's such a sweet image this will be for my stash box.   

I'm also sharing my recent pix of my Bala Sharks these guys sure grew big, I couldn't get all three to be in one spot so here's just the two of them~

And yes, I got another turtle, they called me Friday afternoon apparently the person that wanted it changed their minds and they called to see if I was interested.  When I first bought Ninja I actually wanted a pair so I'm happy now and so is Ninja.  I named the second turtle Ziggy.   

Ziggy & Ninja

That's it for today - be back soon~

My brother the Chef and new addition to the family!

Here's a card that I'm mailing out to my brother who resides in Washington, his birthday is coming up this week.  I think he will get a kick out of his card, his an executive chef over at Ramblin Restaurant .   His been in the food industry for several years now and does all types of cooking. When he comes back home to visit he does all the cooking, his also an excellent baker. 

One of his specialties  is those humongous cinnamon rolls that he does from scratch.   He can  blow Cinnabon any day with those rolls.   

BTW I googled this digital image and it ended being perfect for him.

Meet Ninja~ his my newest pet!
