Day 12 Circle Frenzy

Today's challenge was Circle Frenzy-include at least 20 circles and use at least 2 different sources on your card.  I knew I would include buttons.  I love buttons!  This is the card I came up with today.  Day 12-365 cards  Have a great day!

Lily the Black Bear

We have been watching Lily the Black Bear in our home since January.  Lily is a bear living in Ely Minnesota at the North American Bear Center.  There is a web cam installed just outside of Lily's den.  If you go to the site you can watch live feed of Lily and her cub, Hope, who was born January 22nd.  Sometimes you just see Lily's back sometimes you will see the cub, you often can hear the cub.  As it gets warmer and Hope gets bigger you can see and hear her more every day.  It has been fun checking in on her.  Lily and Hope have left the den, it has been fun watching her.

Day 11 -Lovely Landscape

Today's challenge was Lovely Landscape-the background of the card needs to use pattern paper and the card should be an outdoor theme.  I want to thank everyone for all the sweet comments on my cards.  Being a new blogger and card maker it has been so encouraging.  Thank-you!  Have a great day!  I used my sweetheart cartridge for the tree.  Day 11 -365 Cards

Day 10-Wacky Color Wednesday

Today's challenge was wacky color Wednesday- blue, purple and orange.  I decided to make a paintball card.  My boys love paintballing and they have a birthday party to go to this week.  I used my everyday paper dolls cartridge and I think this is supposed to be a rain splat.  I made it purple, blue, and orange and now it's a paint splat.  It passed my son's approval so I'm calling it a paintball card.

Day 9 Song Inspired

Today's Challenge is Song Inspired "What a Wonderful World" by Louis Armstrong








My latest fabric from Hobby Lobby.  I need to go make some bags. 

Day 8-Outer Space

Here is my card for day 8 on 365 cards. Today's challenge was Imagine This: Outer Space.

Day 6 of 365 Card Challenge

Today's challenge is to create a stamped image using more than one color of ink.  I've decided I need more color challenges or all my cards will be brown or/and green.  It's a little hard to tell in the picture but the top is brown and the bottom is green.

Have a great weekend!!!

Cheap and Easy Pendants

I think we might make these this year for my daughter's birthday party.
There is a tutorial here http://wheredoyoufindthetime.blogspot.com/2009/10/cheap-and-easy-pendants.html 
I found my glass stones at the dollar store
and the jump ring, spacer, and glue at Hobby Lobby.
I like using the oval shaped rocks and my fabric catalog for the paper.  You can use a picture from any magazine.   You have to make sure when you mod podge the paper on you press all the air out.
