Let's Here It For The Boys!

Good Morning! I hope your week has been going well!  Over at 4 Crafty Chicks it is my turn to be the hostess!  Many times, I am short on these types of cards.  At times I find them really hard to make.  We are on Challenge # 151 - Let's Here It For The Boys!

Last Thursday I was lucky enough to have an amazing fun filled day crafting with my good friend Lori! It was a chance to get ahead on some of our DT commitments for the summer and have a blast doing it.  Thanks girlie it was a wonderful treat and thanks for sharing your goodies with me.  While there she let me dig into some of her stamps and have an absolute ball.  Both my boys love to box so when I saw this set of her Alley Way stamps, I knew that these stamps were calling out for a masculine card.  Both of my boys just love to do some boxing moves and have been asking for years for a bag and gloves.  At school they are able to workout with them which has saved me a little moola... :).  Products used are Stampin Up paper & embossing folder, Alley Way stamps, copics, and Martha Stewart punch.

Here is my creation and it will be entered into Make It Mondays:

We would love it if you came on out and shared your inspiration with us at 4 Crafty Chicks. I just love being inspired by your work.



 

Thank you so much for sharing inn this card! Have an amazing week and remember what ever you do don't forget to smile!!

Wine Improves with Age

Hello, how have you been? I have been working hard and hoping in the next month in a half to paint and move my craft room upstairs to my daughters old room.  Then I have to move our son Robin to my old craft/storage room area in the basement and my daughter to her brothers room all of which needs to be painted.  The nice part is that as I go a major gutting out is going on.  It just all takes time.

This week, over at 4 Crafty Chicks our hostess is Melissa.  For Challenge #150 she is challenging us to make a 3D project...no cards...so I went looking and found this cute box over at Dawns Stampin Thoughts.  A super quick and cute idea that you can do so much with.  My box below is made with Rich Razzleberry paper and whisper white. The stamp is from my Totally Stampalicous stash.

 My husbands Rotary club put on a fundraiser and it was a wine tasting.  This stamp reminded me of that....there was so much laughter and great tasting wine.

I put a fat free treat in the box....a stamp pad *giggle*.  You could put chocolates in there, pearls, buttons, really anything and you could dress up the outside anyway you like.  I will be making this little box again, next time doing something up and down.

Quick and easy...hope you like it.

I would love to enter this into Make it Monday - Anything Goes

Please come on out and join us at 4 Crafty Chicks this week, we would love to see what you 3D project comes to mind for you.  My fellow DT's have awesome creations to share with you too.

Wishing you joy in your journey this week and what ever you do remember to smile! Thanks for sharing my creation with me.

You Are Pretty Amazing!

Good Morning to my fellow crafter's! It is the first week of holidays and it has been a blast! The weather started off rainy but man oh man when the heat came out.....it was a sudden heat wave.  On Tuesday we hit a balmy 34 degrees Celsius with our humidity at 44.  We are not used to so much humidity...oh my hair was completely crazy!  My kids were laughing and my dad actually said...didn't you have time to brush your hair....LOL.  I actually had 3 times before he saw it....hee hee.  I was lucky to have had my nephew for 5 days, craft with a friend, see my aunt from High River, my brother, nephew and his girlfriend surprised us it was fast but an awesome visit, and so much more excitement in our household! I do believe it is going to be one busy summer bring it on baby :)

Over at 4 Crafty Chicks we have a brand new challenge and Leanne is throwing the challenge out to everyone! When Leanne gave us the challenge it made me super giddy. Well I must say that this is one of my favorite techniques, (really LOVE, LOVE, LOVE IT).  I kind of use it a lot *wink*! 

CHALLENGE #149 - DRY EMBOSSING!!

Well I got to break out my new embossing folder from Stampin Up and the second embossing folder is from Cuttlebug. My paper is also from Stampin Up, the new in colors :)  Love them. It was a great day as I got to craft with Lori and have a good old visit and some much needed craft time to get me ahead and preview what I should get crafty with next.  The stamp on this card is one from Lori's stash, it was a perfect touch to this card thanks girlie!

My creation will be enter into Make it Monday - #147 -Anything Goes

Here is to some more sun and enjoying the journey of our summer together with family and friends! On Canada Day we were so lucky to enjoy the fireworks and I must say our little town out did themselves.

Cupcake Anyone?

Helloooooo! Today, is the last day of school in my house hold and the kids have been counting down.  It has been a busy week with field trips, exams, finishing off some extra curricular activities, before starting summer activities.  We have also had quite a few meetings to help keep life more interesting.  Our weather in Alberta hasn't been stellar the rain just keeps coming and my families thoughts and prayers go out to everyone who is dealing with trying to recover from all of the flooding in Alberta.

Onto our 4 Crafty Chicks challenge which is brought to us by non other than "Miss Lori".  I was thankful for this little challenge of  "CUPCAKES" because it gave me the chance to break out my old Verve cupcake set that was feeling sorely neglected...LOL. 

So for this little number I broke out my dazzling diamonds, pearls, ribbon, punch, embossing folders, Verve cupcake and Stampin Up sentiment.  My paper is whisper white, pool party and chocolate chip. There you have it, it doesn't take long to whip up something when you have sweetness added to it :) .

I would love to enter my card into Make It Monday - Challenge #146 - Anything Goes

We would love to see what Lori's challenge inspires in you and I would love to come and share your creation. So please hop on over to 4 Crafty Chicks and come play!

Whatever you are doing this week don't forget to smile and whatever you are doing make sure you enjoy the journey and do it with passion!

Thank you so much for poppin in!

Sentiment Only!

Hello and good morning! Well the count down is on for all of my kids, school is almost out.  My oldest Tristan finished his high school classes yesterday, now for finals.  Robin and Kaitlyn's last day of classes is on Friday, then Robin has finals and Kaitlyn mostly has fun days next week.  Not sure where this school year went but it is awesome that there will be a little break of constant driving.

We are on Challenge #147 over at 4 Crafty Chicks...our challenges are flying by just like the months, guess good things go by fast when you are having fun.  I love to see what my friends come up with for each challenge.

One of my favorite things when checking out others work is looking at the sentiments.  The fonts, size and what it says always intrigues me.  So hence it is the challenge I am excited to give everyone over at 4 Crafty Chicks.
 
My card is a really plain and simple one but one that I loved with this embossing folder! I went with blue, white paper and black ink.  A sponge was also used with bashful blue ink to highlight a little of this beautiful embossing folder.  Thanks mom for letting me borrow it! I used this folder because it really makes a sentiment pop.  The stamp is from Verve and this sentiment can mean anything from fighting cancer to weight loss or school. It is an inspiring one!

 I would love to enter my card into Make It Monday -  #145Anything Goes

Please come and join us this week for 4 Crafty Chicks.  We would love to see what you have for us!  Have an amazing week!

Thank you for stopping by and sharing my card with me this week.

Paper Pleating at 4 Crafty Chicks

Good Morning! Yesterday was a crazy day weather wise.  We had sun, rain, hail, wind,rainbows and I saw three funnel clouds forming outside of Edmonton yesterday! Driving threw the heavy rain was not fun at all.  My cousin took a picture of a water spout at Pigeon Lake, we don't normally see these.

Let's hope the weather is a little nicer today.  The best part of my day will be sharing my post with everyone and hopefully working out, as I am in for another stressful day....I am going to try to smile through it but some days it just seems so impossible.

At 4 Crafty Chicks we have another fun challenge this week.  It is brought to us by our talented Melissa.

CHALLENGE #146 - PAPER PLEATING

I have only ever done this type of paper pleating as a child.  I found a video on uTube that showed me two ways of doing it.  One way wetting the paper, crumpling  it up, letting it dry and then folding it or folding it and highlighting it with your ink.  I chose to do the second one.  My card stock is bashful blue, night of navy and crumb cake.  I made this card while cyber crafting with Leanne and chatting with Lori.

Be sure to check out 4 Crafty Chicks as our new GDT has another fabulous piece of work for you and for even more inspiration my fellow chicks have out done themselves.  We would love to see what this challenge inspires in you.

Have an amazing week, enjoy the journey and whatever you do don't forget to smile.

Thanks for stopping in and supporting my creations.

4 Crafty Chicks and Make It Monday

Good Morning to everyone! We had another thunderstorm last night with some very high winds and quite a bit of rain again. Not sure what the weather holds for us today but I am sure there will be sun some where in the forecast right?  So this week has been busy but it sure did have a special highlight for me.  My mom Bonnie, my daughter Kaitlyn and my middle son Robin went to see Diana a Celebration at West Edmonton mall. My kids had to write essays as they were missing school and they both did an amazing job.  I loved Princess Diana as a little girl and admired her work as an adult, so it was so much fun to learn about her childhood, see her wedding dress and countless others memorabilia and oh so much more.  It was a day of memories.  Okay enough about what I did this week and onto the good stuff 4 Crafty Chicks.

 We would like to welcome our Guest Designer Nick from Nick's Scrap Shack. We will get to see 4 creations for the month of June.

Our beautiful hostess again this week is our one and only Leanne.  Now on this particular challenge I truly believe she is the Queen.  We are on Challenge #145...are you ready to here what the Challenge is?

Challenge  #145 - Flowers

Leanne just has a magical touch with working with flowers.  My fellow DT's are amazing too but I have to give this one over to Leanne she is totally the queen, there aren't to many creations without Flowers...she gets totally giddy over them...LOL.  Thank you Leanne, I truly did try to make some of my own, with several that didn't work out, a couple that looked like owl eyes, it was pretty funny.  So I incorporated an embossing folder with flowers on and an attempt at using punches to make a flowers.  All products are from SU! Rich razzleberry; basic black and vanilla with a splash of bling! It is another crisp, clean lined kind of card.

 I would like to enter my card into Make It Monday - #143 - Anything Goes

We hope you will join us at 4 Crafty Chicks where you can make cards; scrapbook layouts, 3D items...  I would truly love to hope on over and see what our Flower challenge inspires in you.

Thanks For Making Me Smile and 4 Crafty Chicks

Good, Good Morning! Can you believe that we are on the last Thursday of May?  Not sure where May has went but poof it is almost gone.  How was your week?  My week was another eventful one. It included a trip to the hospital for my oldest, an allergy/asthma attack for my daughter, running around, going to an art/music festival and watching the rain poor down and flood the streets in Wetaskiwin.  It was crazy to drive in!  The nice part about this last week was that I did find a little bit of time to cyber craft with Leanne and spending sometime with my brother, my parents and aunt and uncle.

We are having another fun challenge this week over at 4 Crafty Chicks.  We are on the 5th Thursday of May so that means it is our Crazy Egg challenge! Our fantastic hostess is Leanne! She has an outstanding challenge for us, do you want to hear what it is?

Critters over at 4 Crafty Chicks.

Good morning! We have had gorgeous weather all week and even though it is windy out it is helping to keep those pesky mosquito's away. Last week was an good week, my oldest got to go back to school on Wednesday from his eye injury (we were blessed with no permanent damage, he was happy to be back at school after 11 days of bed rest), our daughter no longer has to go to physio or to the specialist for her knees and she didn't break her finger, my stitches came out, not as expected but they are out and my hubby and my middle son are feeling better.  Yep, things are lookin up I must say.  What else can I update you with....I am on my 3rd week of boot camp and loving it, it is an on-line boot camp and the coaches are awesome.  Enough of my happy blabbing and onto what is really important...4 Crafty Chicks.

Our hostess with the mostess this week is non other than our chick Lori and does she have one fun challenge for us! It is a challenge we have never had before and well Lori you got me really thinking about what stamps to use.  Thank you!

CHALLENGE #143 - CRITTERS

 (any animal)

This card was made for my anniversary that was on Saturday!  The reason why I loved this challenge so much was it got me thinking back to the many animals that I have seen over the years with my husband.  The first time we were in Victoria, BC visiting my sister, Rob and I were lucky enough to have an evening to ourselves.  As we were sitting on a bench by the water, we saw our first raccoon, it was super interesting to watch.  It truly was a great memory.  So for my critter it had to be a raccoons and low and behold it was in my stamp set from Stampin Up . 

All products from Stampin Up: paper: Early Epresso, Whisper White and So Saffron, punches, stamps, wine, embossing folder, paper piercer, daubers and ink.

I would love to enter my card into Make It Mondays Challenge - #141 - Anything Goes.

Be sure to join us at 4 Crafty Chicks, we would love to come hopping over to your blog and also we would love to see what this Critter challenge inspires in you. Hope you like it as much as I did.

Thank you so much for sharing in my life and my creations with me.  A huge smile is being sent your way!!

Our thoughts and prayers go out to everyone affected by the wild fires and also the tornadoes that have been causing so much damage.

Happy Birthday!

Good Morning fellow crafters! It is hard to believe we are back at Thursday again but here we are and I get to be your hostess over at 4 Crafty Chicks. We would love it if you hopped on over and played with us this week.

Birthday cards are always in need, so I thought why not challenge everyone to a birthday card.  It can be girlie, boyish, masculine, bright, elegant, textured and oh so much more.  On Sunday my dad turned 83 and last Thursday was my grandma turned 92.  We have a few more birthdays this month too and quite a few anniversaries.

Challenge #142

Birthday

My Grandma loves to garden and truly she has a green thumb.  She grows the best veggies and has some of the best fruit.  Her flowers are just stunning. Every spring she looks so forward to getting out into her garden.  My dad also loves to garden but this particular card is going to my grandma, for I always loved eating strawberries out of the berry patch.  Unfortunately, I don't have a green thumb but I do soooooooo appreciate the beautiful flowers and great fresh food.

Here is card #1, it is made with all Stampin Up products.

 Here is a second card with some pearls, I am partial to the top one but I hope you like both.

 I would love to enter my card into Make It Monday - Anything Goes

It is another crazy week here for me as always watching the clock and running to appointments during the day, with a little bit of time here at home to get stuff accomplished and then off to activities in the evening. Today is no exception but it will be a good day. Can you believe that we are half way done May?  The time is going by so fast, only a month in a half until school is done.  So whatever you are doing, may it be filled with sunshine, smiles and joy!

We would love it if you hopped on over to 4 Crafty Chicks and played with Leanne, Lori, Melissa and I.  It is always so much fun coming to see your blogs.

Have an amazing day and thank you for stopping in.

Life is a Journey....

Good morning! It has been a beautiful week filled with tons of sunshine and surprising temperatures.  It is amazing how the sun can make one smile and even though life is throwing you a bunch of curve balls how it can be the bright spot in your day!  Life has been throwing our family quite a few curves lately and somehow this sentiment on my card just seems fitting.

Over at 4 Crafty Chicks this week Melissa is our hostess with the mostess and she is supplying us with an amazing color combo.  Nice bright and fun colors for spring time.  It allowed me to break out some of my pattern paper that hasn't been used in quite some time. 

 

Here is my card below, not to much fancy about it but I did break out 3 pattern papers, two layers of textures created with embossing folders, markers for the sentiment and pearls to add to the pop.  The card is crisp clean lines but is full of layers.  Hope you like it.

Paper: Whisper White, Early Espresso, Tangerine Tango, Rich Razzleberry and So Saffron (all stampin up)  Ink: Tangerine Tango and Rich Razzleberry; Accessories: Pop ups, pearls, two cuttlebug embossing folders.

I would love to enter my card into Make It Monday - #139 - Anything Goes

I hope you would hop on over to 4 Crafty Chicks and see what my fellow DT's have created, you won't be disappointed.  We would love to see what these colors bring out in you.

Have an amazing week!

Who's A Little Star!

Good morning, it is indeed a glorious day here! The temperature is going to be well above zero which is going to be fantastic.  Who doesn't love warm weather? Bring it on baby....LOL.

We are on Challenge #140 this week over at 4 Crafty Chicks and along with that special number we are looking for anyone who would like to be a guess designer for us in June, July and August. We will be picking a GDT one for each month. Our wonderful hostess this week is Leanne and she has an awesome challenge.  Can you guess it?

CHALLENGE #140 - STARS

 

My card below is full of stars.  The pattern paper is from a paper pack but honestly the front/back isn't on it so I am not sure what name brand it is. I love it so much and thought it would go perfectly with this little giraffe. Isn't he cute?  The star punches are from stampin up and so are the brads, other papers (not pattern paper).  Thanks mom for letting me borrow your star punches.  All in all this card is full of stars and it perfect for any little ones birthday.

 

I would like to enter my card into Make It Monday - #138 - Anything Goes

Happy Wedding

Good Morning! It has been a crazy busy week here and next week is going to get busier with even more appointments and new sporting advents happening, business meetings and more. Congratulations to our oldest as he started his new job on Tuesday and to our youngest as she won a contest on the radio. It has been so nice to cherish the little things that make me smile in the face of adversity.

Today is Thrusday and that means a brand new challenge over at 4 Crafty Chicks  and our hostess this week is our talented Lori.  She has Challenge # 139 for us.  Are you ready to hear what it is?  It is a gooder, Lori would like us to use Felt on our projects. You can create a card, scrapbook page,

On the weekend I went shopping with Lori and Leanne, we found a few brand new craft stores that we gave plenty of attention to...LOL.  In the one store there was so many different kinds of felt products and well the wedding pack just had to come home with me to use.  I used only 3 pieces from the collection but it does make for a wonderful wedding card layout.  Couldn't help but break out some more embossing folders to add some texture behind the cake and the next layer. The paper is creamy caramel, vanilla and white all from Stampin Up.

 I would like to enter my card into Make It Monday - #137 - Anything Goes

Another 40th birthday card from my very good friend Lori.  It has all of the colors, I like and the stamp is one that we bought together while shopping over a month in a half ago and she colored here one night.  It was a fantastic surprise to see this is the card, I received for my birthday.  SIMPLY ADORED!! Thank you very much for the wonderful card and for adding to my birthday. If you would like to see more of her creations hop on over to Inkingly Yours.

Thank you to everyone who has stopped by to share my card with me this week. Have an amazing week.

Lovely as a Tree

Hellooooooo! Can you believe we are already back to Thursday? The weeks are just flying by and boy the schedules with the kids are picking up.  Not so much what they are doing but extra appointments and stuff.  So last week when I was away at a convention for my husbands work, we went from sunny and a little chilly to a blizzard, nice on Friday and then another blizzard.  The weather is changing constantly but spring is calling my name.  I was incredibly proud of the Wetaskiwin Credit Union as they won an award, which is tough for the smaller guys to do at the Alberta AGM.  We were also proud of our oldest son as he tried out for Team Alberta (basketball) and made it to the final cut of 10 kids, he did awesome for being injured. Our daughter Kaitlyn turned 11 (growing up way to fast) and our middle son had a great time with his Tae Kwon Do.  My mom narrowly survived with her life, for some reason the dish washer had it out for her, jumped out and attacked her good. (Sorry mom and thank you for all you do).

Seeing the sunny skies and starting to see the green grass, has me looking for some buds on the trees anything besides the geese to show me that the s*** will leave and stay gone for a while.  As hostess this week over at 4 Crafty Chicks, my idea was to celebrate Trees for our challenge #138.

My card below is stamped with Lovely as a Tree, paper is Chocolate Chip, Vanilla and Crumb Cake.  I had fun putting texture to this.  Mom thank you so much for the new embossing folder from stamping up.

Over at 4 Crafty Chicks Leanne, Lori, Melissa and Sue have out done themselves and have some amazing inspiration for you.  Come on out and play, it is going to be fun to see what you create.

I would love to enter this card into Make it Monday - Anything Goes.

Thank you for sharing my creation with me.

P.S.  I am grateful for all of you!

Happily Ever After!

Hello from the Camp house hold! We are in the middle of our Easter holidays here and well I must say it has been a busy one.  Spring clean inside and outside of the house, getting out of the house and exercising, celebrating birthdays and having amazing company :)  When we looked outside last night we noticed that we were getting our first heavy spring rain.  It has taken quite a bit of the snow off of our yard....yahooooo! The birds are starting to twitter pate and the geese having been going over our house like crazy.  Enough of my yapping and onto my new card and a new challenge over at 4 Crafty Chicks this week.

So this week over at 4 Crafty Chicks we have a challenge that well, I must say, I don't use near enough of these.  Our incredibly talented hostess with the mostess this week is Leanne from Banking On Crafts.  She has asked us for Challenge #136 to use CHARMS!  We are also welcoming our new Guest Designer for the month of April and her name is Sue

Low and behold when I was going thru my stash of stuff looking for charms, I find this nice little package that Miss. Leanne gave me for Christmas.  It was too perfect, thanks for giving me these charms Lan and saving my butt for this challenge. The charms she gave me are all different styles of hearts and they are super wonderful.  My card is made with paper, ink and embossing folder are from Stampin Up (Night of Navy, Basic Grey and Whisper white), ink is Night of Navy, embossing.  Now if anyone could help me my Night of Navy always looks purple when I take of picture of it...any idea's?  Accessories are the Twine and charm :).  The Stamps used are from Inkadinkado -Wedding.

On a special note I have a few very, very special people I would love to thank for my homemade 40th Birthday cards.  These cards will always be treasured by me. There have been cards over the years that I have been saving to frame and I do believe these two will be in that frame.  Now to find suitable frame.  Turning 40 this past weekend was a hard one for me.  When I turned 30 it wasn't bad but turning 40 was really hard, had me in tears often and down. For quite a few of my friends it was turning 30 that was the problem and not 40 (they embraced it and well hmmm...I didn't). There has also been so much going on in our lives that I think everything just got to be too much and the expectations of me. The goals I set for when I turned 40 were not met but I am trying to tell those Negative thoughts to go take a Hike.  All in all my birthday was good spent with my family, we went shopping, bowling and out for supper.

My mom in the last few months has pumped out over 200 cards..she is amazing! She makes cards for all of my grandma, my aunts and uncles, my brothers, sisters, nieces, nephews and great for both.  My mom makes, anniversary, Christmas, Easter, Valentines Days, birthdays and truly makes everyone feel special because she took the time to make them.  Thank you so much for everything you have created for my kids, husband and myself.  Each item being unique and very special.

Bonnie Stewart - My Mom...who needs to get a blog of her own *wink*

Leanne when I went to the mail yesterday, granted a few days after my birthday.  There was a huge surprise for me parcel pick up slip.  Boy was I thinking man I've been good and didn't order anything...low and behold it was a card from my dear friend Leanne.  Well giddy with excitement as always to get something fun in the mail, it was quickly opened.  To quote Robin and his friend Dylan..."that is sick"...which means it is totally cool. Then came the questions of if I could create cards like this.  Well I said no mine are different but Leanne really knows how to put details onto a card that make them picture perfect.  Lori I totally know what you meanT when you said to me over a week ago that this card I would want to frame and I DO!

Leanne took my desire for reading (LOVE, LOVE, LOVE IT) and crafted it into this amazing book on this card. The paper is perfect, the book, distressing, ribbon, flowers, pearls, charm, sentiment are super phenomenal.  I have treasured the cards you have made me over the years Leanne but this one is truly my favorite.  Thank you so much to adding to my special day!  Too check out her amazing creations please click on her name and it will take you to her blog.
