These are the tags I made for both Joni and Debi (sorry Debi, my darn cold delayed my mailing them to you, but they are surely on it's way to you). I used my Hello Kitty stamps that I got from Pineapple Cove..<br />

I guess everything caught up with me, but I am feeling better with each passing day. I need to apologize to my OCS (Leanne) and Tag (Debi) partners because my projects are done, but haven't been able to make it to the Post Office. But don't worry, they will be coming very shortly ... so sorry! Okay, enough complaining. As part of <a href="http://www.tamikos.blogspot.com/">Tamiko's Creative Team</a>, we were assigned to create a card using bling, buttons & brads. Since Halloween is approaching soon, I decided to do a card using one of my Pink Cat Studio stamps so here is my contribution... <br />

A while ago, Cyn over at <a href="http://munchkinsrubberstampshawaii.blogspot.com/">Munchkins</a> had a DT call and I talked myself into trying out.

Here are my 4 cards that I created for Munchkins...<br />

I pray that we NEVER experience something like that again!<br />
<br />
On a little happier note, today I am attending a baby shower for a friend who recently adopted a 9 month old boy from Japan! My friend is a single guy and I am so happy for him for taking that special step to become a father. He is such a giving person and shares his love and Aloha to all that are lucky enough to know him. My GF asked me to make the favors for the shower and I knew exactly what I wanted to make as soon as she asked me. I hardly make boy things so I was excited to be able to use my Quickutz tractor and cement truck dies. I couldn't find a dump truck die so I surfed the net and printed out a picture of a toy dump truck, enlarged it to the size I wanted, and made my own template! I mounted them on a scallop circle and adhered them to a package of cookies. I hope everyone will like what I created...<br />

Last Friday, Hubby and I had to attend a funeral for one of his friends who passed away suddenly at the age of 31 ... sooo young!!! I really don't like to make sympathy cards, but like all of you we are faced with having the need to make them at one time or another. I made the following card using a sentiment I bought from <a href="http://www.munchkinsrubberstamps.com/">Munchkins</a> a while ago...<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Attending the funeral was really sad for me and everyone else who attended. To see the parents, sibling and relatives having to mourn their loss really makes you think that life is just too short and we should all live every day to the fullest and have no regrets. REST IN PEACE CHRIS ... YOU WILL SURELY BE MISSED BY MANY.</div>Kyokohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01179494085286307900noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7200755866586207319.post-19386420517773082812010-09-06T16:48:00.005-10:002010-09-12T09:16:10.310-10:00CHRISTMAS TAG SWAP PLAYERS FOR SEPTEMBER...Hope you are all enjoying your Labor Day weekend!

For <a href="http://tamikos.blogspot.com/">Tamiko's Thursday Teasers</a>, we were challenged to create with the colors pink, green and brown.

<br />
Okay, you will need to start and end at <a href="http://tamikos.blogspot.com/">Tamiko's blog</a>, and you must leave a comment on every CT Member's blog in order to be eligible for the candy. This hop will end on September 7, 2010 @ 11:59 pm HST. One special winner will be selected on September 8th so stay tuned for that. The candy will be a $10 gift certificate from Tamiko's and one choice of a new release rubber stamp from TGF ... either Sweet Anya or Oh Boy Ian ,,, <strong>GOOD LUCK TO ALL</strong>!!!<br />
<br />
Okay, if you are in the right order, you should have arrived from the <a href="http://inkedinspirations.blogspot.com/2010/09/surprise-blog-hop.html">AWESOME Jodi's blog</a>. If you didn't please go back to <a href="http://tamikos.blogspot.com/">Tamiko's blog</a> to see the order for the blogs to visit. The birthday card I created for Cami is made with an image from the Sweet and Toxic set from TGF. Since Cami is such a SWEET PEA, I didn't want to have the skulls in her hair so I decided to cover it up with Doodlebug brads and I also used a butterfly because Cami LOVES butterflies. I hope Cami likes my card...<br />

I wanted to share with you the August OCS card I made for my partner Jovita of Arizona. If you want to join in the FUN, please stop by my BFF <a href="http://simpleandsassycreations.blogspot.com/">Linda's</a> blog for the sign up ... you won't be disappointed! The theme this month was to make an Asian card and I was soooo happy because I have so many Asian stamps, but never had a chance to ink them. Okay so here is my take...<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2-bGG9A4I_HD00rfFNCE7owFBQ7H6SCrTdJZ2zuwT_f9L8miza2XutkfSIWE1ApDDn8VPVtXtyRXbHIFS8R74TlhfB547VvuluGup1jsh9mhz-LCvA6W5FAoZxm563FaB0i8cjPHbRo3H/s1600/DSCN0823.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" ox="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2-bGG9A4I_HD00rfFNCE7owFBQ7H6SCrTdJZ2zuwT_f9L8miza2XutkfSIWE1ApDDn8VPVtXtyRXbHIFS8R74TlhfB547VvuluGup1jsh9mhz-LCvA6W5FAoZxm563FaB0i8cjPHbRo3H/s400/DSCN0823.JPG" width="300" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I hope you can see the embossing folder that I used from the Asian bundle! I really like all of the embossing folders in that set. I hope Jovita likes it. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Well I have a lot of projects to work on so hope you all have a very enjoyable weekend!</div>Kyokohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01179494085286307900noreply@blogger.com11tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7200755866586207319.post-54665725931592539882010-08-26T03:00:00.010-10:002010-08-26T03:00:03.244-10:00TAMIKO'S THURSDAY TEASERS...Happy Thursday ... one more day before the weekend!!! Hope you are all doing great! Today is the day for another Tamiko's Thursday Teaser. As part of the <a href="http://www.tamikos.com/">Tamiko's</a> Creative Team, we were asked to create "anything but a card". I had to rack my brain and decided to make this box to hold 3x3 cards ... I jacked the idea from SCS ... heehee... Here's my take on it - hope you all like it!<br />
