Cute Birthday Mouse

 Hello and welcome to my blog!
Can you believe we are on the last Thursday
of January. Now, some people
think that this month has taken forever to disappear
but to me it has just flown by.
January is a month with so many birthdays
in it family and friends.
It has been so much fun celebrating
them all!
This month has also had so many people
pass away suddenly and that has been really
hard on so many people.
My thoughts are with them all.
Now let's get to why you are stopping by.

Today, we have a brand new challenge up over at
Challenge #335 - Birthday Wishes
our amazing sponsor is
https://www.etsy.com/ca/shop/HettyClare
They have kindly let me color up
Prize: 4 images
 My card is pretty clean and simple.
I used some of my favorite colors,
red, pink and brown.
The image is colored using
Copic Markers
Gina Marie Design Dies were used to highlight
the image on both the white and early espresso paper.
Rose Petal dies were used for the Happy Birthday
A Stampin' Up punch for the banners and white/early espresso paper and pearls.
The pattern paper is from Little Darlings Paper

Come on over and join us this week.
I would love to be inspired by your creations.

Have a blessed week

A Sailor Is An Artist...

Hello, Hello, Hello
and welcome to my blog!

Today, is what I consider my Project Bin Monday.
Do you know what stamp set this is?
It is called Anchors Away
It has 5 really awesome sentiment stamps!
sailing, nautical stamps, clear stamps, theprojectbin.com, stamping, paper crafts
The perfect inspiration stamp set
and it can truly be used for anyone.
My husband has always wanted to sail
and when I saw this, it just makes
me think that on the water he would be that
artist, using the wind and water to create
a masterful design.
One day, I hope that Rob is able to check
this off of his bucket list.
The is retired Stampin' Up pattern paper and I used
their oval stitched dies.

Come join us over at The Project Bin Blog
and see what my fellow team mates have created for you
each week day!

Craft with me?
Have a fabby day!
Thank you so much for your support!

Happy first Monday of 2020.
It has been a great holiday season so far this year.
Today, our daughter goes back to high school and she is
preparing for her very first set of Diploma Exams
that will happen in the next few weeks.
Tomorrow, our oldest son turns 23...the time is just flying by
my friends..23 years old...wow!!!

We are cat lovers...but we do love dogs too but cats have a slight
stronger pull for me. Our cats are named Tigger and Nation.
Today, for The Project Bin
I am highlighting two stamp sets
the first one is
It comes with two images, two dies
and 6 sentiments.
The second stamps set is from
has 9 clear stamps for stamping
on the back of your creations
letting everyone know that it is hand made by you
It was so much fun to color up this image
using my Copic Markers.
The different shapes and colors were from
my left over piles of shapes
that were not used.
It was so much fun to piece them all together to come
up with this layout for the purrfect kitty cat :)

We would love it if you would join us each week day for 
some more incredible creations and inspiration from my
fellow design teammates.
