Father's Day from Belle

Today I made a card for Belle to give her Daddy!!! Yes she's our Dog, but she's our little 4 legged daughter and she knows it too....

This card went together really fast for me, guess because it's just Fun to do..... I found this 6x6 pad of pet paper last year and just love all the color it has to it, the one I used here with the doggie prints on the hearts has glitter on the hearts but I don't think you can see it... all the words I did on the computer and just printed them out.... The little dog I made into a beagle like Belle, it's from a MFT pet set I found about a year ago too... just love that little pooch!

Here's the inside... hope I hit all the important things here......

Think I'll stamp a few dog prints on here yet... and maybe color the little pooch too....

I know Don will just love this, maybe I get a jar of nuts to go with this... they both LOVE nuts!

December Birthdays!

I know it's been a while since I've posted but time has just gotten away from me....

Can't believe I have time today to do this but here I am....

This was our sons Birthday card from earlier this month...

He loves to fish so this was right up his alley.

Had this CTMH stamp set that I got a few years back and had never used... will this was just the ticket for this card.  I used some wire I had from something and wound it around from the pole to the fish...

Here's a better look at how I did the wire.....

And this is the inside... can you tell he already had received this.....?

I left the border open across the top so we could put a gift card in there for him...

He loved it... will he loved the gift card anyway...!

Thanks for stopping by again!

Hope you Enjoyed!!

 

Tea Boxssssss!

Will I've been working on Tea Boxs and though I would share with you all the different ideas I used.

Now don't laugh to hard on this one....

It's my Out House Tea Box

I know there just to CUTE aren't they??? Will when my hubby saw the girly ones I made he said that would make a good Out House so I had to give it a try... I took some crackly paper and some woody paper and scored it like wood planks and then sponged over that so the scoring would show some.... then I took a circle and double cut a moon.  The I just took some black floss like string and made a little handle....

Now the roof was made from some Creative Memories Shimmer paper, it had just enough shine to it to make it look like metel then I scored it every inch and on each side of that I scored again 1/8 inch and did my foldes...then just sponged around it to make it look old...... I was supprised how cute they turned out. 

 Now here's my Girly Tea boxs... So sweet looking I think.  I put a Tea pot on the front and the Tea cups on the back.  On these I even put a little top knot on them...

Here's a better shot of the little top knots... The tops just needed something and I didn't want to put a bow on them since there going to be in a kitchen... so I though of make these little things. 

 Now here's the ones I made using my old tea bags.... they are just so colorful I hated to just throw them away so I though I would try this out....

and this is the top and inside top too with more tea bags.....

And here's my last ones.... my John Deer tea boxs....

This is the front and back view.

I just have 2 more to make so I better get going and start my last two... !

Thanks for stopping by again!

Hope you Enjoyed!!

 

Flippin' Fishing!

Yep, I'm starting to make the cards from all the coloring I've been working on....

Here's my second Flippin' card... Catch of the Day!

Isn't he just the cutest???

 here's a close up of the sign I popped it up and the grass too. 

And yes I used brads... can you believe it?

and here's the inside top portion.  I just love the back view of this guy as much as the front!

this is the inside verse...

That's it for now... I've only got aaaaaa... I think 6 more of these to make....

Thanks for stopping by again!

Hope you Enjoyed!!

I'm Flippin' Cheers!

Flippin' What?

Working on these flippin' stamp sets again.   I doing a few of the men because I need some Manley cards....don't we all?

Here's the first one so far.....

Here he is in all his glory..... the beer is yellow and then I put some Crystal effects so it would look wet...can't see it here but it looks good in person.

don't know if you can really see it but I used Stickles Rock Candy on the beer foam, and Liquid Pearls on his buttons. I put some Liquid Pearls around the barrel too. 

And here's his back view... if you enlarge the pic you'll see the crack in his butt... OH my...

I didn't color him in the inside just stamped him with black ink. 

The saying came with this sit too.. .

He was really fun to do because he's just so funny looking and you really can't do to much wrong with him...

Thanks for stopping by again!

Hope you Enjoyed!!

 

Hubby's Christmas Card!

Hi Everyone!!

Can you believe it... I forgot all about my hubby's Christmas card... I did everyone but his and one for my Mom and Dad.... I'll work on there's tomorrow maybe! 

Will today I did hubby's and here we go........  He LOVE'S to Deer hunt so I try to do a deery card each year for him.  This is what I came up with... I used 2 different kinds of pattern paper, one with horns and the other with leaves... Did my layering, then used my OLD SU deer set called Noble Deer, love that set it can be used with so many different card types.

 Here's another view of the front, I couldn't decide which one I liked better so used them both...

 Here's a close-up, see how I did the bow, I just folded it back and forth in my hand then used needle and thread to sew it so it would hold then I glued it down. Next I tied some twine on the button and glued it on top to cover the sewing... Looks good and not frilly I hope.

This is the inside... If one of his gifts doesn't get here I'll put a gift card in here too....

Will I still got time to do a few more things today... hubby brought home some mistletoe for me from our cabin in Ga. so think I put that in little clear bags and tie ribbon on each for little gift stuffer. 

Thanks for stopping by again!

Hope you Enjoyed!!

 

Don's Birthday!!!

Hi Everyone!!

It's been a few weeks since I've posted, but I'm back.... This weekend was Don's BD so hens the Manly BD card....

I've been wanting to use this beautiful CTMH stamp set (Beautiful Things D1298) I got Oh.... maybe 3 months ago.  Where does the time go?

Anyway here we are, I used Bamboo ink for the tree, and Desert Sand ink for everything else, even the sponging on the edges and all. I saw this idea in a book over a year ago and been wanting to try it.  Just mating the words section and do a second mate over the whole thing and Ripping around the tree only.  It just makes the tree look rugged.  The buttons are from my flee market buys and the ribbon was tied around washcloths, I know I would find a use for it.

Here's a shot of the card and the gift tag.

Here's the inside, yes its a gift card.  I just made a slit big enough for the gift card.  The back ground is also from the same stamp set as the tree on the front.

and here's the Gift tag. 

Cleo is the neighbors dog, and the gift was a Craftsmen tool called a Dog Bone wrench. 

That's way I put Cleo on the tag... to cute.

Will that's it for Today!!!

I'll be selling this card for $3.00/each with matching envelope.

Hope you enjoyed.
