Excell Birthdays...

I made birthday cards and bows (to go on cycling helmets) for all my Excell Tri Coaching Teammates this year.  Here's pictures of a few that I remembered to take-

Katherine's 

Holly's

Coach Robin's 

I also made Coach thank you cards... 

 and thinking of you cards for her birthday.

Jen's 

Izzie's 

Jennifer's 

Andrea's.

I forgot to take pictures of the rest of my teammates cards but they were all the same, done in either their favorite colors or the color of their bike.  I CASE's the birthday cards from Amusing Michelle.    

Thank you for stopping by!

Musical Butterfly...

I've been MIA for a while...trying to balance my cycling training, crafting, and taking on a little side job this year has definitely been difficult.  I was able to get in a little crafting but blogging...sigh...

I CASE'd this card I saw on Pinterest from scrappinandstampingj.  I made one for a friend and one for my Mother-in-law for her birthday.

Have a wonderful Christmas Eve!

Greenbow Alabama!...

I made these for my allergy doctor, allergy technician and allergy shot partner last year.  Getting caught up with blogging (computer crashed and training for a 106 mile cycling race took over my life last year, sigh)...

I started out by stamping Denami Design Shamrock Chickie in Memento Ink on Neenah, coloring with Copics.  I used the Stamping up Circle punches and Stampin' Up Scallop Punch.  I stamped the clovers from Denami Design Lucky Irish Stamp Set in Stampin' Up (retired) Gable Green and Garden Green on address labels.  Denami Design Botique Boxes, Stampin' Up Cardstock (retired) Gable Green and Garden Green, Stampin' Up Ribbon, Baker's Twine, and a Button...oh and can't forget the chocolate💚

My inspiration from Wendy E on Denami's FB Page

Look WHOO's Having a Baby...

Oh my goodness...I didn't get much crafting done last year, sigh.  I started training for El Tour de Tucson in May (a 106 mile cycling race held every November) and it literally took over my life.  Not to mention my computer crashed too.  Ugh.  Anyhow...I get allergy shots twice a week and was making cards and such for my allergy technician, doctor, and my shot partner.  My allergy technician liked the stuff I was making and asked if I would make some baby shower invitations for her friends shower she was putting together.  This is what I came up with...

I stamped My Favorite Things I'm Owl Yours in Memento Ink on Neenah paper and colored it with Copics.  I used the My Favorite Things Die-Namics I'm Owl Yours, Stampin' Up Circle Punch in white, the Stampin' Up Scallop punch in Pink Pirouette, then mounted the owl on it.  I masked the sentiment from the MFT Pure Innocence Make Mine a Double set and masked "BABY" from a $1 stamp from Michael's to create my own sentiment.  I colored in the sentiment with Copics.  Neenah, Pink Pirouette, Smokey Slate, cardstock, Stampin' Up Gray Ribbon and Baker's Twine.  MFT Button.

All the cards I made.

I also made her a coordinating thank you card for her order. 

Thank you so much for stopping by.  Hope you have a great rest of your day!

Hearts on Hold...

Once again I'm behind on blogging...ha!  I made this for my husband for Valentine's Day.

I stamped PI Love You With All My Heart from My Favorite Things in Memento Ink on Neenah, coloring with Copics and paper piecing with Echo Park Papers Love Story.  The sentiment is from MFT.  The puffy hearts are from Michael's.  I used MFTWSC318 for my layout.

Thank-you for stopping by!

X's and O's Take 2...

I made these for a few really great people I see at the allergy clinic I go to twice a week =)

I used the same design as I did for the other Valentine's Day Cards I made except I eliminated the stamping as the stamp I was using wasn't stamping really well and took a lot of time.  Anyhow, I used MFTWSC317 for my layout.  Melon Mambo, Very Vanilla, Real Red and Echo Park Love Story.  MFT Die-namics Hearts a Plenty, MFT Die-namics Fishtail Flags STAX and MFT Die-namics Lots of Love

I hope you had a wonderful Valentine's Day!

Wish I May, Wish I Might...

A quick card I made for my oldest grandson for his birthday, which was Friday.  All he wanted for his birthday was a drink cup that has a snack cup built into it (one of his friends has one and he thinks it's the coolest thing ever) that was it!  After I sent his box and was facetiming with him on his birthday he said he'd like a green power ranger for his birthday for his brother so they can have battles.  I said "Wylie, so...you want a toy for your brother for YOUR birthday, is that what you're telling me?"  He says, "yes please, just put his name, Connor on the package, ok?"  I thought it was the sweetest thing ever!

 Anyhow, for my sketch I used this weeks My Favorite Things Sketch Challenge MFTWSC319.  I stamped the boy from MFT Dog Gone-Cute in Memento Ink on Neenah, coloring him with Copics then fussy cutting him out and mounting him on foam dots.  The sentiment is from MFT Little Loveosaurus.  Night of Navy, Pumpkin Pie and Bo Bunny Blast Off paper and a corner punch to make the tag.

Thank you so much for stopping by.  Have a wonderful Valentine's Day!
