I decided to play along in the My Favorite Guest Designer challenge for December. The challenge is to use a watercoloring technique in my project.
Unfortunately I do not own any MFT stamps. Someday…maybe Santa will bring me a few sets for Christmas.
I decided to make a square card this time. I have never made one [...]

Good Morning! Well, I have had my half cup of coffee and started on the first 32oz. of the 96oz. of liquids that I am supposed to drink every day. I think I am ready to ‘wax eloquent’. Mbwah! Like that’s ever gonna happen!
But seriously, I am feeling long winded this morning so if you [...]

Well, I’m not gonna sugar coat it…this card just about did me in! I went into my craft room at 1:00pm to make this card for Cammie’s World Alzheimer’s Day Heart to Heart blog candy, Lori’s challenge using the CPS sketch and of course the CPS sketch challenge. A cool 10 hours later I finally [...]

11/07/2008 – Woohoo! Mystery almost solved! Nearly a year after all of this started we think we have solved the mystery of what is happening to me. It is not an autonomic disorder after all. My autonomic testing at the Baylor College of Medicine was scheduled for October 1st. This meant I had to be [...]
Incredible Inspiration…Mackintosh Enamels
Posted in Cards, Challenges, Inspiration, Stampin' Up! on July 5, 2008 | 2 Comments »
Today’s splitcoaststamper’s challenge was ripe with inspiration for me! This card is for the Inspiration challenge #135. We could be inspired by anything from Mackintosh Enamels’ catalog. I chose this pattern, but I wanted a platter instead of a plate. That’s why my “plate” is an oval.
I love the way they display their collections with [...]

Swanson is an Eagle Scout and I wanted the theme of the [...]

For some reason that song kept going through my head as I was making this card for my daddy. Today is his birthday! Happy birthday Daddy!!
This is the second card I have made today for the Splitcoaststampers Color Combinations Challenge #173. I was actually inspired by this card made by E3stamper. This set is one [...]
Purely Wild Celery…Sounds like something got loose in my garden

I made this card the Splitcoaststampers Color Combinations Challenge #173. This week’s challenge uses Wild Wasabi, Purely Pomegranate and Certainly Celery. Well, I don’t have Wild Wasabi or Purely Pomegranate, so I had to improvise with Old Olive and Rose Red. Not nearly as pretty together, but at least I get to [...]

I made this card for the Featured Stamper challenge on Splitcoaststampers. Michele’s gallery is a joy to look through and I had a hard time deciding. Here is the card that I chose to case. I kept the layout, tag, twine and twill tape the same. I had to change [...]
