Thank You Card

Love quick & dirty thank you cards.  They always turn out great! 

Here I used tim holtz paper rosette die, peeled paint distress ink, and a large cling background stamp with a little glitter.  Love the quickie glue pens & they added a little shine to this card.  I used a wood mounted thank you stamp, but sorry, no idea the maker!  Then cut out the design and glued it on the rosette.  Sweet!  My fav thing about this card is the ribbon- forgot I had purchased a xyron sticker maker at a scrapbook yard sale.  I recently saw one being used on youtube, remembered I have one, dug it out, bought the sticker stuff, and now it sits on my desk READY FOR ACTION!

Deadlands RPG

Hey my invisible internet buddies!  I'm currently trying to roll up a character to play Deadlands:Reloaded.  My initial thoughts is OMG rolling for skills is a little confusing, but I look forward to starting the game!  I'm creating an undertaking lady of the night named Sarah Jones.  Her father was the original undertaker of the town and zombies attack so she takes a shovel and helps out.  Snicker.  More coming soon.

First Mixed Media project

Love this!  Ok, so I had a wedding with a few steampunk pieces of flare.  This pic was amazing and the whole project turned out better than I expected.  Even my hubby liked it!! 
I used walnut stain distress stain, Hawaiian blue chalk ink, glimmer mist, gold acrylic paint from ranger, pearl dust embossing on the little embellishments, a clockpiece from tim holtz, and i dont know what else!  I love it & more so because my hubby likes it too!  Cant wait to show it off!

Say I Do page

It sadly took me TWO DAYS to finish the page.  Might have helped if I wasn't trying to organize the library & entertaining my hubby half the time!  I think I get more done at a crop-sheesh.

Anyways, i used a ton of Tim Holtz products here.  Love that guy!  The background page was from one of his paper packs.  I used his grungeboard with Dusty Concard Distress Ink & Pashmina glitter spray by Tattered Angels.  Is that company still around?  I can't recall if I've seen them at the conventions recently.  The journaling tag is just black cardstock edged with a rugged looking scalloped scissors.  The fabric flowers were misted with the same pashmina color-and they were actually decorations at my wedding.  I saved a balloon from the reception too.
Well, more in a few days!

Pocari Sweat

Here is a lovely scrap page I made for my Honeymoon album.  J-baby & I spent two AWESOME weeks in Tokyo Japan & I made sure to take pictures of EVERYTHING we ate & drank.
Pocari Sweat is a gross drink J-baby heard of from a friend & we had to try it.  It's a popular sports drink which i found to be so sickingly sweet and yet convienent to find....
For the page I used my gypsy to make the words & thought a collage of my hubby drinking the nasty stuff was perfect.  :)

I'm making a comeback!

Hey people!  I'm finally making my way back to blogging, and have a few things lined up to post.  So sorry for the long absence, but home life has finally settled down & i can focus again!  Sort of...well....we will see.
To start us off, here is a picture of a "flag" I made for my departments olympic games.  I love that i could use my scrappy tools to help the team!   I used my create a critter cartridge for the flame and some glitter & sequence foil!  Wooo!  The light is coming from a miniature light set my best gal pal got me for ANOTHER project.  Can you tell my husband is frazzeled with all my hobbies?!  LOL
