You Make My Life Sweet!

Theme: Eats or Drinks
ENDS - Sunday, July 1, 2018
All good things come to an end, sadly, 
BUT
At the end of this, SOMEONE WINS $50 BUCKS to spend!

(Oooh, let it be me, let it be me!)


You know what would make life sweet?
Winning the $50 on Simon Says Stamp so I could buy something cool to do a giveaway in my Facebook group!

(See how I'm always thinking of you loverlies!?)


Oh yeah, about the card, I almost forgot.

I stamped these adorable and tasty little morsels and then I watercolored them and stamped on a SWEET
sentiment! 

Easy peasy and all the squeezy,
my little pumpkin!

Thanks for checking out my sweets today!

See you next post!

My Favorite Things Sketch

ENDS JULY 2, 2018

Sketch Challenge sweet little cupcakes of mine!
THIS ONE took me a Loooong time!

I re-made this 3 times!

Did you know that if you Oxide ink a piece of paper and put it into stickles, the color will bleed? 

Well, ya do now!
You're welcome

I remedied that issue by taking to the embossing powder.
Yeah baby!
I embossed the red paper with clear, and the white paper with iridescent ice. Then I punched them out. 
(I know! I was curious if my punches would make it through embossing powder without cracking it. )
It worked like a charm! 


Look at the shiny shiny shine!


No stickles or glass accents needed! AND, embossing powder is SO much faster! Voila! 



I did finally come to a happy place with this card. So never give up! It might take you all day long like me.... it's ok!
LOL
(It took me a couple hours to be honest!)

It's the small things!

The Birthday Project - Beary Happy Birthday


Everyone LOVES a birthday!
I decided to use the "bear" theme to use my favorite
A KOALA BEAR!
(go figure right?!)


Now, I know I should have clicked some photos of this amazing little card...
but look...
I was having a great time hanging with a friend
and just creating, for hours, laughing, talking, 
you know, 
just letting it all hang out!

And apparently, my brain hung out too and fell out. 
So there.
LOL That's why I have no pictures to show you the process!

"Cheesy Grin!"

Here's my card anyway cause I know you are one of my closest friends and will forgive me. 
*muah!*

(no washi tape was injured during the making of this project)


Happy Mistake - 
I thought I had grabbed some acetate you could emboss with for the "Happy" part, and when I added heat, it all shriveled up!!

I know! I was totally confused too!

So I double checked the package. 

IT WAS SHRINK FILM!!

So the "HAPPY" is actually a shrinky dink. Cool huh?!
(take another look!)


See you next post!
