Spider Corn...

A Halloween card, I'm really behind with my blogging.  I hope to catch up by the end of the year.  Anyhow, I had some leftover supplies from when I made these for my neighbors a couple years ago so I threw this together real quick to give to the gal that does my allergy shots. 

I used SU Retired Sets Just Flying By and Web Wishes.  SU Punches and Denami Design Ribbon.  

Thanks for taking a peek at my blog!

Puppy Love...

I made this for our chihuahua's groomer/pet salon.  One of our chihuahua's (Kahlua) became very ill in July and we had to make the difficult decision to put her to sleep.  When my hubs brought our other chihuahua (Corona) in for her grooming appointment the owner was brought to tears at the news.  She has always shown so much love towards our chihuahua's and has taken extra special care of Corona since.  What's crazy is after talking with Sharon shortly after we started going to her Pet Salon, we realized that she used to work at the place we took our chihuahua's to when we were stationed in Mountain Home, ID.  Such a small Air Force!  Anyhow, when my hubs went to pick up Corona that day Sharon sent home a card signed by the whole shop and flowers for me.  She is by far the sweetest groomer we have ever come across and every time we come to get Corona either she or someone else in the shop is walking around holding Corona loving on her and they're showing us pictures of the little photo shoot they've taken after they groomed her. It's not much but I made her a card and wanted her to know how much we appreciate the love and kindness she has shown our chihuahua's over the years.

I stamped My Favorite Things Pure Innocence Puppy Girl in Memento Ink on Neenah Cardstock, coloring her with Copics.  Island Indigo cardstock and some random patterned paper I had laying around.  The sentiment is from MFT PI Soldier Boy.  MFT Die-namics Heart STAX, Stampin' Up Square Punch and a Rhintestone.  I used MFTWSC300 for my layout.

Thank you so much for stopping by.  Have a great day!

Ride On...

I made this card to thank my surgeon for suggesting that I take up cycling.  I've had 3 ankle surgeries the last 3 years and am unable to do pretty much all of the gym classes I was taking due to the surgeries and Ehlers Danlos Syndrome.  My surgeon told me on my last visit with him that he felt bad that I'm not able to do the physical activities I loved and wished that I could fall in love with another activity like I have for my gym classes. He then suggested I take up cycling.  It took me about 2 weeks to find the nerve to road cycle where I live, but...I did it!!!  In the 5 weeks that I started cycling, I put 600 miles on my bike...I'm happy to say I have fallen in love with cycling!!!

I used a retired stamp from Stamping Bella.  Stamped on Neenah with Memento Ink, coloring with Copics.  Sentiment made using a retired stamp set from My Favorite Things.  SU Corner Punch, Denami Design Ribbon.  SU Cool Caribbean cardstock.

Thank you for stopping by!

Jeremy's Six Pack...

I made this card for one of my best friends, his birthday was earlier this week.

I got my inspiration for this card from a card I saw on Pinterest.  I used Upsy Daisy Design paper, black and white card stock.  I printed the sentiment off of the computer. 

Thank you for stopping by, have a great week!!!

ConGRADulations Matthew...

I made this for my best friends son who graduated in May.  Slowly catching up on posting.

Thank you for stopping by!  Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Thank You Chickie...

It's been forever since I made any cards and blogged...let's see if I remember how to do this!

I made this card a while ago, found it on my camera and to be honest, I can't remember who I made it for or why =(  Been a crazy time for me while I wasn't creating.  I hope to get back into the swing of things again.

I stamped Denami Design Patriotic Chickie in Memento Ink on Neenah cardstock, coloring it with Copics.  Cherry Cobbler and Night of Navy Cardstock, SU Square Punch, SU Scalloped Circle Punch, Cuttlebug Folder, a button and twine to finish off the card.

Thank you for stopping by!  Have a great weekend!!!
