Krafty Day!!

My GFs and I went on a road trip this past weekend to attend the first ever Krafty Day!!!Kraftin' Kimmie along with a few of her Krafty Girls (Sr and Jr), and Sheila and her gang from SGD, put on a super fun day for us!!! There were make and takes, great shopping, good food and fabulous friends!! I even had the pleasant surprise of running into a friend from Thunder Bay who I haven't seen in a few years!! (:

Here are a few pics of some of the people we got to meet!!

Grandmas

My Grandma will be turning 80 on October 13th!! So when I saw this cute little stamp by s.w.a.l.k. (while I was visiting SGD) I had to get it!! I am using this card as my entry at Design Dollies for their colour challenge (navy/lavender/tan) as well as for The Town Scrapper's Different Shape challenge.

Toes in the Sand

I made this layout as my entry for the door prize for Kraftin' Kimmie's Krafty Day. (I will post some pics from this super fabulous day later!!!) We had to use at least one of the Kraftin' Kimmie stamps and the colour lilac. I am also using it as an entry in If the Shoe Fits challenge, which is to use flowers.

I can't remember what brand of paper it was, I've had it in my stash for a long time just waiting for the perfect moment to use it (: The CS, felt, ink, glitz glitter gel, photo corners, buttons and some of the flowers are CTMH. I coloured KK's Florence with my copics. The title is done with thickers, and the beach border is EK success.

I got the idea for this layout from CTMHs new book called MAGIC!!

So I didn't end up winning the door prize but the competition was pretty stiff!! I had soooooo much fun though, that it didn't matter!!

We'll see what happens at If the Shoe Fits??!

This is only page 32 of 104 ): Boy do I have to get my butt in gear!!!

Washer Pendants

One of my fellow CTMH consultants made these awesome pendants and I had to give them a try. To see Haley's tutorial, click here.

I'd also like to thanks Deneen for posting her pendants, and tips on making them (:

I made them to give the girls in the Stamping 6 group I'm part of. (Hey GFs!!) I covered both sides with paper, which made it a little more difficult to file and leave nice edges on both sides. The paper I used is all CTMH, the washers came from the Home Hardware in Lively, ON (: , the bling is mostly CTMH, and I used CTMH liquid glass to seal it all in.

Happy Now, Happy Forever

Publish Post
I made this anniversary card for one of my dear friends and her hubby. I'm a little late but I know she will forgive me (: (Sorry Kirst!! I thought yours was in August ): )

I used CTMH's July stamp of the month called Happy Forever. The little hedgehogs are so darn cute!!! I also used an old SOTM called Cherish the Moment, the Cherry-O Creative Basics pack (paper & ribbon), coordinating CS, some flowers and bling. I coloured the hedgie with my copics and used my spellbinders to cut him out. The green piece was embossed using a cuttlebug folder, and I used a bit of stickles to shine things up (:

I messed up on the number nine and it's still bugging me but.... I'm not sure what I can do to fix it???

BIG BELLEH!!

I caught the kids sneaking out after I had put them to bed one night. They had forgot a stuffed animal on the car and decided they needed to get it before they could go to sleep. It was one of the really warm weeks in April but both of them (Kieran and Azelyn) had on toques (but no pants) (: It was quite a funny sight when I caught them on their way out the door. Kieran is always talking about his big belly (which he pronounces belleh) and I managed to get these pics this time (: while he was trying to make me laugh so I wouldn't give them heck. Gotta love him!!!

The stamp set, ink, brads, chipboard arrows, buttons, and cardstock are all CTMH, the letters are Thickers, the patterned paper, I'm not sure?? and the ribbon is $ store.

My Star

These are some pics of Aidan watching TV. I love his expressions (:

I can't remember the brand of patterned paper (sorry), the chipboard stars, CS, ink, ribbon, and staples are all CTMH. The sentiment is from CTMH's You Rock stamp set and the chipboard is stamped with Spot on Backgrounds SS.

The star border is Martha's. The layout is from CTMH's Reflections Book
