Wow! / Courage / R.A.K.S!

Here are two cards  that I did this morning and two RAKS I received recently and I wanted to be sure that I did not forget to acknowledge them... First of all my first card I created was a digi image that I inked up with copic sketch markers, Spellbinders(Beaded Circles), paper roses, gems, brad for the little tag with sentiment by Hero arts collection and Marvy Uchida scallop punch and lace.

My next card that I created was  from Stampendous(Cling Ling Ling Courage Set), sponge the edges, added cherry blossom flowers and the leaves from Spellbinders (Foliage, also clear embossed the courage symbol .

Now for my two RAKS that I received, I want to thank Karen for creating this beautiful Arigato card and she also sent me a paper pad ( Garden Party) which I'm sorry forgot to take a photo of...  this sits on my computer stand, love the pink/green of this card.  My second RAK that I also received is from  Shirley this is a very unique card which she explains in the card that she used toilet paper and the technique is called Faux Handmade paper.   They are both very beautiful!  I am so happy since I've been in blog world that I made some very amazing friends along the way.   Big hugs to you all!

Well it's time to head back into my craft room to straighten out the mess and I need to sort out all my scraps from printed to solids so it's easier for me to work with.. Right now they are all sitting in a box all mixed up!
I will be back later with more posting... Until then thank you for stopping in and visiting me...
Toodles for now and many hugs to you....

Greeting card Holder

Here's a new project that I found on you-tube video and I decided to give it a try. It's called a greeting card holder and it was a zap to put together...I was amazed that the inside holder can hold a total of eight cards four on each side... I did my cards 4 x 4 but you can alter it to make it a bit larger like the size of your holder.

I inked this digi stamp with MS markers, used spellbinders (Fleur De Lis Rectangles), red brads, clear stamps on the apples and flowers, ribbons, and various DP.

My second card is with the same digi images one is Thank You and Happy Thoughts..
This Thank You card was made for my DH doctor's office on Oahu, they've got one of the best bunch of  employees their and we appreciated all the help they gave us while we were day several days ago.  The flowers were inked up using copic sketch markers and the the thank you sentiment was clear embossed, added stickes on the flower tips.

My last card is the same digi image as above just changed the sentiment to say Happy Thoughts.  Inked also with copic sketch markers, added pearls and stickles on the flower tips and cleared embossed the sentiment.

I'm working on more projects and be back later to post them.
Until then, thanks for stopping by and leaving me such sweet comments.

Toodles - and many hugs to ya all...

I'm Back!

Hello everyone~
I surely missed you all- got back early this morning.. I'm glad to be back home and so is my DH.. I want to thank each and everyone for all their sweet comments on his recovery... He is doing great and his surgery was very successful.   He will be home for another three weeks for recovery and be back to work, which he can't wait to go back too. 
Being away for several days was really hard to get back with my mojo in my craft room... My mind was still uncleared with being enclosed in the hospital for 4 1/2 days.  So today I will share with you what I created for my C.A.T.S.(card and tag swap) for my July's partner Michelle.  The theme for this month is using anything with the RED,WHITE AND BLUE, how neeto is that....This is the first set I made for her, hope she likes it, and the second set that I made today is a little something for her too.  My first card is an accordion card stamped with Kiyomi  click here if you want to find out where you can purchase them.  She is inked up with mementos markers, added pearls, sentiment is from G designs and pop up dots.
The  tag was also inked up using memento markers, laminated it and added a ribbon.

Here is my next card that I also made for Michele, this one is for you my friend..
This card is a double fold card , added washi paper did it in the same color theme, added gems, stamped and cleared embossed it, stickles , clear stamp inside of card is by hero arts, did my tag with spellbinders (classic scalloped ovals small) flower stamp also by hero arts and ribbon..

I'm working on some digi stamps that I'm inking up and hope to get them posted later.... Trying to get back with the groove...
Until then have a great day/evening..
Thanks for stopping by..
Toodles for now, and big hugs to you all!
