Tilda With Broom

I made this Tilda with the broom yesterday and she is super cute....I love these colors....I started to use a sketch from Katharina's sketch #4 but I added the sentiment circles and it came out really cute.....I really love her sketches and have found lately that they make it so much easier to put together a card....I also used the sentiment stamp from Hanna Stamps domestic goddess set which is another favorite of mine....So what do you think....I love to hear your thoughts and comments.....Thanks so much for stopping by and have a great weekend....

Hula Sophie

Well I came across this stamped and colored image and figured I had better finish whatever it was I had planned on making....So it was to be a card......I think I get new stamps and then I have to ink and color them right away but then I can't find the right paper or need for the image and then it just sits there forever......Does this make any sense at all.....So I needed some thank you cards and this became one of them......Interesting right......I used the green paper (served w/ sushi) which is not recycled I bought it at the Japanese market in a package for like a dollar....I just said hula skirt to me....Why is that......I also used some old Heidi Swapp tape....Does anyone else have to much of this....If so how did that happen....I put some rub-ons on the plastic slide mount and used a few prima flowers and there you go......I have not stamped any Riley or Sophie cards lately so I enjoyed putting this together.......Enjoy and happy stamping...Kristina

Hanna Challenge

Challenge for our Hanna Yahoo Group......




On my Hanna Yahoo Group we had a challenge to do and the inspiration
that Kristi at Hanna Stamps provided u with was so perfect and so me....
I love these colors......One of my favorite color combinations.....So I was
to mail to Susan so I made a 6X6 card that was already a day or two late
(shocking I know) so when I mailed it I didn't put the correct postage so I
got it back in my mail box.......Not good.....So it was going to be really late
now.....So I decided that I needed to make a small gift to make up for my being
late......So I made this little card set with some chocolates since it matched the
the paper I was using so well......We all love chocolate....I hope she likes it........




I covered some nugget chocolates with Pattern Paper and
added some rub-ons.....I used a tin from some Maya Roads
rub-ons or stamps that I got a long time ago......




These ar 4X4 cards and really are very simple
I used some American Crafts paper......SU Cardstock
and of course my copic markers........Oh and Riley from
Hanna Stamps.......The words are also from Hanna



Same thing here except that I added a few flowers



How cute is he.......I think this one is one of my favorites......
So this is what I sent to Susan I sure hope she likes it.....

You know when you make a card or gift that just comes together so well and you just love it....
Like it turned out even better than you had envisioned........Then you try to convince yourself
that you should just keep it for yourself.......Well that was me but I just kept pictures and it always feels good to give your handmade gifts to people and especially another crafter that appreciates the time and effort that you put into it.......Well I have more to post so better get going......Happy Stamping........

Hanna Challenge

O.K. so I have made two of these cards in different variations.....Which one do you like better.....I have been working on several Riley cards so I will try to get them uploaded today.......

Hanna Challenge

I have been working on a few patriotic cards with my Hanna Mini Set........I also realized that I have no 4Th of July paper........Imagine that.....Well this came out alright but something seems off just not sure what it is yet........Well Happy June and may the creative juices keep flowing......Back to cutting paper.......

Here Is Riley

I have been busy making cards as always but I am really loving these.....I used SU paper from Creative License Kit...I really love these colors.....I also used my copic clear glitter pen and cuttlebug embossing folder......Thanks for looking...

I don't know why but I just love googly eyes......And they look so so cute on Riley....I used the same SU paper and SU stamps.....I also put some crystal effects on the cup and cupcake.....

Why Do I Just Love Riley?

This is Riley again right........I just love Riley.......So cute and can make such cute little cards......Oh and coloring of course is always fun.......I make these cards with some scraps which is a favorite thing that I do........And get very excited about........I stamped a lot of the images but just got around to coloring them and putting together the cards........We did 5 cards in my card class but no Riley cards maybe the next class.........Hope you enjoy and I will post more later........I have been making a lot of cards........

Hanna But I needed it Thank You Card

I pulled out some very old SU paper and made this card along with a few others and they came out so cute......I love using old supplies......I really do....It makes me feel so happy to use up stuff I have been hanging on to for so long that I have forgot I even had it......Thanks for looking.......Have a great day....Love Love

Easter Stuff

So Riley (Hanna Stamps) is just so so cute and I can't seem to stop coloring him.......He was just perfect for these little Easter cards for the boys.....I just love these little jars so I added jelly beans and put a little tag......I was super happy and so were the boys......Thanks for looking......Have a great evening.......

Happy Tuesday!

First I just love these colors.......I used Doodlebug paper, SU stamps and Bella stamps oh Copic Markers........
This is a Bella Card and I used some Basic Grey paper.......So cute....Just love these stamps....

This is a card I made with my Hanna Stamps.......I used some twinkling H2O's to color her in and so with the picture it kind of looks shinny huh.......

We have been so busy........We had a great time at the pro-bowl and got some great pictures of our son.......Now it seems like Valentine's day is already here and I'm trying to get everything done with that.......But I finally got around to getting some pictures taken of some cards I've been making.......So here are a few........I'm still waiting on an order of Bella Stamps.......Wow shipping with them takes forever........Have a great day.........Love Love

Hanna Stamps

This Hanna shopping for Shoes maybe.....Love these colors and she is just so cute.....Oh how I love to color.....I used my copic markers......I also used some teal embossing powder.....Love it...
Here is another Hanna set and she is way to cute......You cant really tell but I used glitter on the shoes and the bag.......As an added touch I added the Heidi Swapp flower gem to her hair...Cute
This is Hanna Shopping again......But I think the colors were a little to light......She is still cute though........Hope you like........

And Jared Stamps!

When Jared was little he would come into my room and play with my little hammer and carefully place all my eyelets and brads in their little containers.......He even had his own stamps and ink pads and that would keep him entertained while I was busy trying to create......Long since then has he wanted to do anything like that......He is older now and much to busy with, friends, playing outside, playing X-Box 360 or wii to want to spend time like that with mommy.....And I know my baby isn't so much baby anymore and that part of him just has grown up.........I knew it would come just like it did with Dominick........So when he came into my craft room the other night and asked where his stamps and markers and pencils were not only was I shocked I was so happy.......That is the little boy I remember that always wanted to be doing what mommy was doing.......So he stamped and colored for awhile and then he was done and on to watching SpongeBob as if that was better than stamping.........But anyway I enjoyed that little bit of time and had to snap a few pictures........Where has my baby gone........I keep repeating this to myself but still have no answer........

Hanna Stamps!

So I got my Hanna Stamps in the mail the other day and have been having so much fun stamping her.........She is so great......I have a few more but I'm not completely done yet.......I just love to color what kind of nerd am I........Enjoy
