WOYWW-113 / The Versatile Blogger Award

WOYWW;
 (What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday)
Every Wednesday Julie Dunnit hosts a gathering of crafters of all kinds from everywhere to share what they are working on, by taking a pic of your play area. It's really fun to see all the different things people from all over the world are working on and I must say I've meet some very interesting people from Julie's sit.
Thanks Julie!!!!

This past week I received a surprise comment on my WOYWW from a blog friend of mine Shaz or better know as Silverwolfcards.

Celebrate!

Hi Everyone!!!

Today I finished up a card I made and did NO stamping at all.....!

Can you believe it?  Me either...

Will I challenged myself to do two things...

1. No stamping (very hard to do)
2. Use Creative Memories only (almost)

and I think I succeeded...you be the judge.

I know, I know it's not my usually colors but it is really pretty in person, hope that shows thou for you to see too.

Here's the front. 

I used a piece of scrap CM paper I had from the old paper series called Gazabo (2006-7 I think).  Then I used Delight Paper Ribbon at the top and bottom.  For the flower I used both the Delight Paper Flowers and a die cut flower from Fun & Fab.  All these were layered on a background of CM-Espresso brown.  The Celebrate! tag at the bottom came from the Fun & Fab die-cut set and I cut a border sticker with the word Celebrate and put that on the tag.  I did use 2 Non-CM brads on the tag too. 

Both the Tag and the Flower were poped up to give it a little demition.  I also used CM-Brown Chalking ink on all the edges of everything.

 Here's a close up of the front.......

and here's the inside.  I used more of the Delight Paper Ribbon down the side and 2 corners from the Fun & Fab die-cut pack.  I also used the yellow center frome the Fun & Fab set then placed a vellum quote from Expressions of Her.

Even thow this was out of my comfort zone not to do any stamping I did enjoy the chalange and happy with the results too. 

What do you think, Honestly???

Thanks for stopping by again!

Hope you Enjoyed!!

Hi Everyone!!!

This week I'm getting ready to do something New.... !!!

A dear friend of mine is a Creative Memories Consultant and she holds weekly and bi-weekly crops that I sometimes attend. 

Several times she has talked about having me teach a Card class for her..... willllll this weekend we're going to do it and Saturday will be my FIRST Card Class...

I hope I don't disappoint her and her ladies. 

I've already posed one card I'm going to do and here's another one...

Not sure where I got this card from but Thank You who ever it was that had it on there blog!!!!

This card was one of the first cards I made when I started making cards, so though it would be good for a beginner class.

Here's a close up of the medalion and I used a brad in the middle.

and here's the inside.......

Thru the years I've used this card several times, everyone loves it! 
I've used it to send Recipes to friends and family too...
