Friendship...

Hello Saturday to you all.

It has been a long sad week and I have not been crafting much this week.  My Brother in law passed away early Tuesday due to liver cancer. He went so very quickly, from the time that he got the news that the cancer had spread to his lungs and stomach. It was one week before he past away. He was such a kind and good man, may he rest in peace.

With this news I just felt very melancholy all week. I feel so bad for my sister, she is just lost with out him and I do not know what to do for her. If anyone has any advise I would really appreciate it. 

Here is a card I made for the site Crafting by Designs where I am also the featured blog of the week!  If you have not stopped over at Crafting by Design, your should, the girls are so friendly and I just always seen to get the nicest comments on my cards. Thanks for stopping by today and I will see you later.

 

Exciting News...

Hello Everyone! 

Happy New Year hope everything is going well with you.

I have some very exciting news to share with you... I have made one of my favorite Design teams. I am proud and happy to announce that I am the  newest members of Sweet Sketch Wednesdays!! I have loved Sweet Sketch for the longest time and now I am part of the wonderful team. (((Jumping up down)))

Here is my very first card for todays challenge.

Here is Arlana's  sketch:

This sketch is perfect for longer rectangular images like the adorable images from our sponsor Saturated Canary Digis   by Krista Smith. You can find her images over at Etsy and read about Krista here on her blog. The prize this week is 2 free images from Krista's shop.

For this card I used the image Peace and Love Hipster. She is just adorable and so fun to color. My papers are from CTMH. 

Everyone on the design team has made something wonderful this week so be sure to head over  to SSW  and see there work and I hope to see your creation on the challenge blog! 

Happy New Year!!!

Wishing everyone a Happy 2012! 

Winter wonder...

Hello, 

Today this will  be my last card for 2011. I am ready and happily looking forward to 2012 and all the excited adventurers that will happen in the coming year.

This card is made with a Stamping Boutique image for the challenge over at 2 sisters Challenge blog, because The Stamping Boutique is the sponsor. The Challenge is to make a card with Winter colors.

Here is my card, I used the image called Mail Girl. The papers are all in blues, white and a touch of brown. I would of done more white but we do not have any snow to remind me of the white, LOL!

Friend to friend

     No... you are not seeing double...I wanted to play with my new printer that I got for Christmas and also  wanted to do the sketch from Sweet Sketch Wednesdays and since the sponsor this week is A Day For Daisies. I do not have many images from ADFD, so this one was one that fit the sketch( I know I don't have to use the sponsor image, I just like too). Did I mention my new printer? It is wonderful and wireless! Thank you Mom and Dad Dronchi I love it.

 

For this card: The Dp are all digi papers from Sherri K design. The image is from A Day For Daisies, and the sentiment is from SU. I used Copics for coloring and glitter on this little one's  hair. Hope you are doing well this afternoon. 

Sea Friends

Hello, 

Just popping in to remind you that the open house is still going on over at The Crafters Cafe. 

Here is I card I made for the challenge sponsored by A Day for Daisies ( challenge will start on 12-31). I used lots of glitter on this little mermaid her 3 friends are just adorable.

I made this card for a soccer friend of my daughters, she had eye surgery this month and I thought this would cheer her up. Come to find out She was up and going the very next day. So happy for her! I am going to try and get a few more posts before the new year. See you soon.
