LITTLE C'S STAMP N' SCRAP HAWAII CHALLENGE...

Hi Everyone ... sorry for being MIA for so long! I decided to participate in Little C's Stamp n' Scrap Hawaii Himawari Babies challenge. I had fun making this card and wanted to keep it in the spirit of Halloween. I used this cute HB image, Paper Shaper tree and spider punches, MS fence and bat punches, and dew drops. I used pop dots on the bats to give them more dimension. I hope you like it...

Thank you everyone for always leaving me encouraging comments, and until we talk again ... LOOK TO THE FUTURE WITH BRIGHT EYES!!!

NEW LOCAL SISTER IN BLOGLAND...

Happy Hump Day! I want to welcome a new local blogging sister Sherri who has finally created her own blog! Sherri has been participating in Teri's OCS for a while now, but didn't have a blog to post her wonderful cards. Her blog is new, but wait and see what she will be creating in the very near future. WELCOME TO THE MADNESS SHERRI ... you will make so many new friends!

Thanks for stopping by, and until we talk again ... MAKE NEW FRIENDS!

SEPTEMBER OCS...

Happy Monday Everyone! Hope your week started off great! This month for Teri's OCS, I was honored to be paired with Joy D. of Tamiko's. Joy has some of the most creative projects and I just LOVE visiting her blog and store! I got to meet Joy IRL at Teri's social, and she is sooo super sweet! I also got to shop ... we all love that! Okay, so I decided to use one of my new Stamping Bella images called "Ruby and Rose" from the Lulu Collection. I used my DCWV Dress it Up paper for my matting, nesties, ribbon from PTI, and flowers that bought in Las Vegas. I'm pretty happy with the outcome. I hope Joy liked it too...

I have more posts later this week, but until we talk again ... DON'T GET ADDICTED TO FACEBOOK!!!

ANOTHER SPECIAL RAK TO SHARE...

Happy Hump Day! I wanted to share this RAK with you from Jenny (Crazy for Paper Crafting). She sent me this absolutely gorgeous magic slider card and a whole bunch of Elzy images. Lookie, lookie...

Okay, there's a story behind this ... One day, I was on her blog and saw a really cut Elzy card that she made, and commented that I really liked the image and to bring it the next time we get together to craft. Yes, I'm dingy ... I got her confused with Jenny V.! HAHAHAHAHAHA ... she emailed me later and asked me if I was confusing her with another Jenny because she lives in HILO! Anyway, being the sweet person she is, she offered to send me some images, so I SCORED with my "lolo" moment.

I also wanted to send her some images so I stamped the GG images that I have and put them in this holder. I "jacked" this idea for a holder that I got from Chalsie. Hey Joy, I actually did some MATH and made it bigger in order to fit the stamped images. Here's how it came out...

Thanks Jenny for your generosity and I hope you like the images I sent! Thanks for taking the time to stop by my blog, and until we talk again ... SET REASONABLE GOALS FOR YOURSELF!!!
