Happy New Years almost...

I made two Valentines cards for a card swap I am in yesterday.  Usually Mom does a set ( of 7) and I do one, but she can't do them this month, so I did two of them. Finished the second one today and got them in the mail. 
I was thinking of doing them for my class this month especially since they use the new promotional from SU, but I might have to figure out an easier way to do the scunci ribbon.  It looked easy but it was a pain in the pin feathers.
I won't bother with details since I don't think anyone cares, but if you do just ask, I'll be happy to oblige.
If I don't get back on here before have a Happy New Year and be safe.

Whoops forgot pics...

Sorry the snowman is sideways. I'll re post later (probably tomorrow) and fix it.

HS,
me

I can't believe it....

Has it really been since May since I have blogged.  All my faithful reader ( the two of you) can now resume reading this wonderful blog!!!!
Lots of thing have happened in the months gone by as I read and read how sleepy I was, thankfully that has somewhat cleared up with the discovery of my sleep apnea. My cpap plus oxygen has really helped.  Maybe that's why I quit posting, couldn't stay awake long enough to do it.

Well here's a couple of Christmas projects for you, none I might add, did I invent, but you have to admit, I am a great copier. The snowman gift card holder is from Lisa Young and I don't know who made the reindeer, they are adorable, but I can't find the web site again. (good thing I have somewhat of a good memory).

Got to run now. Have to go to my grandson's Christmas program at school tonight.  He's in kindergarten and he only sings with the rest of the kids, but it's a Grandma's duty.  Maybe now that I have broken the ice I will start blogging again, but don't hold your breath.  I do have lots I can show you now.

Ta, ta, for now. Stay warm and happy stampin'

I am soooo sleepy...........zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I don't know what's wrong with me, I can't stay awake.  I fall asleep stamping, on the computer, reading, just about anything anywhere.  I finally got my swap card made and mailed 2 days late...
I have also been very busy with life stuff too.  We are fixing to go get a new washer.  My died about 2 weeks ago.  It was 13yrs old and served us very well. But you didn't come here to hear my sad stories but to see a card. 

This is called a magic color appearing card or something like that.  First you see the picture in black and white then.........

Then wahlah, the color appears when you pull up on it. Like magic.

There it is a little closer up...

Well I have to go now.  Hubby is home and we are going out to get a new washer....

Have a lovely weekend.

i remembered!!!

I remember as I was eating a late breakfast (i am so not a morning person) the name of the 'Bone' punch, it is the Modern Label punch.  It does look like a bone kinda, don't you think?

Later,
Wanda

Happy Monday

Today starts another fresh week....and I am already racing through it.  Today I will work on church cards, go to the bank, post office and pharmacy.  Tonight I have a friend coming over with her son to work on a science fair project and then it is Virtual/Reality Christmas card stamp night.   And no, I still haven't started my Christmas Cards yet:0)

Although Easter has passed, here is a card we did using the Chocolate bunny stamp.  I love that stamp, it's so cute.  It also reminds me of a Veggie Tale song about The bunny, the bunny, woo I ate the ears off the bunny...something like that, my kids and grandkids tell me I sing it wrong all the time....Well anyway I use some of the Speciality Designer Paper called Sending Love,  on every sheet one side had GLITTER..ooohhh it is so pretty. (you can only get it through the end of April so order soon if you need it!)  The other thing we did that was fun was the faux ribbon braiding very easy.   We used Pretty in Pink, Very Vanilla and Chocolate Chip  card stock.  Lots of punches the new Corner Trim Scallop, Scallop Trim,  Ticket Corner, (i can't remember it's real name and my book is in the kitchen, i only remember it as the bone punch??)the "Bone", and the Word Window.  (we do have knick name for some stuff, i can't believe, i can't remember, i guess it's a senior monent.)

Well before I forget my name, I'll sign off.  Hope you week goes well for you.

A card from our March class

Here's a card using the big shot and the bird punch.  We did this card in March.  It is using Kraft paper and Brocade Blue a long with the Bella Blue designer paper.  The Brocade Blue will be one of the retiring colors this June.  The Kraft will be name changed to Crumb Cake.
I use the lg oval punch and the oval scallop punch.  The leaves are made with the wing from the bird punch.

If you have any questions, just ask.

HS (happy stamping),
