Dad's bday card & dumb excuses

Hello non-existing readers!  I'M BAAAACK.  Again.  I don't want to know how long I've been absent...I just want to blog & scrap!

To restart: here is a birthday card I put together for my dad's 55th.  The totally awesome rays in the background was created by using one of Tim Holtz embossing folders and Fired Brick Distress Ink.  I recently got these amazing stamps from Close to My Heart.  LOVE EM!  I was so excited when I found out my gal pal Sharon was selling Close to My Heart stuff!  EIIIII!  Click her name and you'll go to her blog, which makes me drool over the scrapiness!  I wanted to make the card look like a comic book panel, and I'm pretty happy with the results.  The distress ink helped me shadow the layered cityscape.  I also used black StazOn Ink!  Can't forget that!  Must use these stamps again!  :)

Wedding Scrapbook

I love my Bridesmaids layout.  I was able to use ribbon from the wedding & I love these pictures.

Japanese Micro Mini Room

Lordy-I can't believe I finished it without breaking it!  My gal pal got me this micro mini kit from the N.A.M.E. convention & I was so excited!  I will look up who designed the kit & will DEFINITELY get more of her kits!!  This room makes me want to cry- I mean, DUH Japan means alot to me, and this mini will remind me forever of my honeymoon!  LOVE IT!

J-Baby even liked it!  He drove me nuts while finishing this up becaz he kept INTERRUPTING ME while gluing!  LOL but I love him.  Hubbies just don't get it-LOL.

Ok...I'm over my head...

Next week is the Creating Keepsakes Convention in Charlotte, NC!  I'm so excited to be going with a good female friend becaz you have NO IDEA how much testosterone i've been drowning in!!  But that sunday is also a meet day for my miniature enthusiasts club!  And i've wanted to show those awesome ladies a miniature!  Well, I have this little potted plant container, a tiny fairy, and macgyver furniture!!!  I need help.  It needs help....  HELP!  What other furniture can I make for this mini?

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!
