have you HERD?

Good Morning!

I hope everyone had a wonderful holidays, and is looking forward to the New Year. I know I sure am. :)

TOday I have a sweet card that I think could be used for many situations.


All of these adorable animals are from the TAWS set With Wondering Awe. Except the little pig, which is from the Oinkers one of two free sets that come with a $90 purchase this month.

I also need to say that this will be my last post as a TAWS design team member. It has been such a blast working with Alison and all of the other AMAZING ladies on the design team. 
After some soul searching and much debate, I have decided that I definitely need to spend some more quality time with my family, something needed to go for now.

My blog posts will be quite sporadic for a while but be sure to check back in February for some exciting stuff!!

I have also decided to focus a bit more on some other forms of crafting that are near and dear to my heart, one of which being sewing.

Please check out my Facebook page for more info on what I have been doing in that regard!


Thank you so very much for following me!
Take Care and have a wonderful rest of the Year!!

Shhhhh!

Hello there!!

I can't believe Christmas is almost here!! 
I'm not even remotely close to being ready, are you?

Ugh, every year I plan on starting early and it just doesn't happen. LOL!

As usual, I just couldn't resist an idea I had for a baby card, and this one just makes me giggle.


Both of these adorable little creatures are from With Wondering Awe, as is the "Shh".
I created the rest of the sentiment I created using Tag Alongs and Baby Talk.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Have a wonderful Holiday Season.

Merry Christmas

Good Morning!

I just can't seem to get enough of this ADORABLE little
sheep, from the With Wondering Awe set.


The sentiment is from the Christmas Magic set.

I somehow just love the simplicity of this.
The sheep and his little mouse friends!

Thanks so much for stopping by today.

a tag for you

Good Morning!

It's been quite the week around these parts.
Super busy and kind of an emotional roller coaster!

I have a quick tag to share with you today.




I used the bird from the Free-With-Purchase set, Oinkers, and reverse stamped it.

The "mistletoe" is from With Wondering Awe and the sentiment is from Tag-Alongs.

Thanks so much for stopping by today.

TAWS new release blog hop!

Good Morning!!

There are so many exciting things to tell you about.

First of all it's that fabulous time of month when we get to showcase one of the 3 releasing sets (which will be available tonight at 10pm TAWS time).

Also, this month instead of just one mini available free with a $40 purchase (Starburst) there is a second available (Oinkers) free when you spend $90 total, meaning you would get BOTH!!!

How awesome is that????


Second, as always there is a chance for you to win ALL 3 SETS from this month's release.
All you need to do is hop on over to the TAWS blog for all of the details.
***MAKE SURE YOU DO THIS***

Third, TAWS is offering a super fun promotion from Dec 1 - 12th.


Now that I have shared all of that fun stuff with you, 
on to my card!


I used With Wondering Awe, as well as the oldie-but-goodie Framed.

Now, it's time to hop!!



Please enjoy and thanks so much for stopping by!

Peace on Earth and a goodbye

Good morning!

Today is officially my last post as a Design Team member for the AMAZING Avery Elle.

It was a very hard decision for me to make, but necessary.
Life has gotten quite busy and I just don't have the time to devote to crafting as much as I'd like. 
And to spend more time with my family.

Jamie has been so wonderful to "work" for. She is a FABULOUS woman and artist. Thank You so much Jamie for taking me on!!


I created this using the large Finished Frames die and the super adorable Joy to The World stamp set. 

I cut out some metallic gold paper with the die, then stamped the Peace on Earth stamp in Versamark, heat embossed white and then "coloured in" the inside with the Delicata Gold ink pad.
To get the smudges around the outside I wiped off the excess gold ink in circles, with a baby wipe, to spread it out past the edges.

I really like the effect!

Thanks so much for stopping by today.
Please head on over to the Avery Elle blog for some gorgeous inspiration from more members of the design team.

sending well wishes

Hello there!

I have a super quick share for you this morning, 
a simple neutral get well card.

Nothing sends warm and healing vibes like a pot of tea.


I stamped, masked and heat embossed this gorgeous tea pot from the TAWS set Tea Par-tea.

Hop on over to the TAWS blog for more daily inspiration from the amazing design team.

Thanks so much for stopping by today. :)

merry tags

Hello there!

I have another quick Christmas tag to share with you today.

I used the Avery Elle set, 



I used Gift Tags Dies to cut out the tags, and stamped the Christmas image.
I thought it needed a little something more along the bottom, so I used the vine from Happy Spring.
The "to" and "from" are from the Alice and Friends set.

happy holidiays

Good Morning!

Christmas is just one of my favourite times of year.
It was my Mom's as well, so things were always so well decorated and traditions upheld.

Lately it just seems to come up so darn quickly!

Today I have one of my Christmas cards to share, using the TAWS free-with-$40-purchase set Winter's Butterfly, as the background.


This little elf, from Toy Land, is one of my most favourite Christmas images.
The sentiment is from the Christmas Magic sentiment set.


Thanks so much for stopping by,
have a wonderful day!

we r family

Good Morning again!

For this post, I thought I would change things up a bit.

My usual MO is to make cards or gift tags, but every so often I decide to tackle something that is, for me, a bit more difficult.......



......A layout!!!





The new sets We R Family, and  We R Family additions, are just so darn perfect for this!

I also used some of the adorable little die cuts from the Finished Frames dies.


           

I'm pretty sure we are going to frame and hang this one. 

Please be sure to head on over to the Avery Elle blog to check out more inspiration by the fabulous Chunyuan.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!
