Now for a review of this amazing product -- Magnetic Storage Folders. Lora has two types; one by Marianne Designs and the other by Joy Crafts which is pictured below and unfortunately, it is currently out of stock at the moment.

Hopefully, Lora will get some more in stock as we are all anxiously awaiting the anticipated arrival the new Spellbinders Pre-orders. These items are awesome as you can store between 9 - 10 Spellbinder die sets in each one. Whats more, you can see at a glance your different die sets and decide which one to use without opening many many packages.

Do join us in for our February Challenge at OCS which is “Love is in the Air”. Love to see what you create and gives us a way to drop in on your blog to visit. While you are at it do check out Lora's store One Crazy Stamper for some amazing and new craft items.

Hi All!

It feels like forever since I have posted!  I am keeping this a little short because there wasn't much to this project!  I ended up giving away the first January Page I did and I made another one for myself.  Although I don't have very many pictures for January so I need to get better at taking photos!

I used the adorable Kraftin Kimmie Stamp Eva.  She is sooooo much fun to color and was a had to have once I saw her on the One Crazy Stamper Store site!  She is just so SASSY!

Hope you all have a wonderful week!

Happy Stamping,

Tilda with Candy Cone

Hi all for another wonderful Wednesday – looks like a Frosty Friday outside here in the Okanagan Valley. We’ve this spectacular thick frost coating all the tree branches and when the sun hits it it is absolutely amazing.

Today I’ve chosen another Magnolia stamp called Tilda with Candy Cone – available at OCS.  I’ve had this image colored for a while – but hadn’t gotten an idea of what I wanted to do with her.  I was poking through some DSP’s and found a piece of SU, that seemed to fit in perfectly.  I have one of the most wonderful SU demo’s and we had just done a couple of unique folded cards – this is not one of them, but the other cards gave me an idea of something that could be done differently.  It is a card within a card.

Materials used:  Magnolia Stamp – Tilda with Candy Cone;  Xpress It blend c/s; Copic Markers; Memento Tuxedo black ink; Doohicky border dies; Shrinky Dink (hearts); Marianne Creatable die;  White pearl hearts (died red with Copic marker).  Misc. C/S from stash.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hope you will join us in the Feb. Challenge at OCS which is “Love is in the Air”.  Love to see what you create and gives us a way to drop in on your blog to visit.

A Pencil and a Dream

I REALLY love this sentiment on my card.  It kind of gives me chills if I really sit and think about it.  It applies to so many things..drawing, inventing, math, a speech. But the first thing I thought of was writing, as in a book. I love to read and often sit and wonder how the author came up with the ideas for their book.  It’s inspiring

The word I chose for myself for 2012 is WRITE.  I believe the idea for the word of the year originated from Ali Edwards blog? Did you choose a word for 2012?  I have so many things I want to write. Funny stories about my kids, childhood memories, and stories I’ve made up.

And I love this image from MFT. I made this card for my daughter’s teacher for Valentine’s Day.  The papers are from October Afternoon.

Thanks for stopping by and taking a look!

I’m gonna be honest, I’m not really a cat person. But who wouldn’t love this sweet Belles N Whistles image. I know a little girl who loves kitty’s and this image is just perfect for her. So this is her Valentine’s Day card from me :) I had fun coloring her up with my copics and adding this fun border with my Viva Decor Pens.  My papers are from My Mind’s Eye.

So, what I want to know is… are you more of a cat person or a dog person?
