cute card!

Hello my friends!

**

We received about 7″ of snow overnight here in Maryland. Our hot water pipe in the kitchen froze and Mike decided to drill a hole and heat the pipe. Worked like a charm. Good thing I own a heat tool!

This is my first attempt at an easel card. One of the local ladies, Traci had some of the local ladies over for Chinese New Year celebration. It was so much fun. We made two coasters and an easel card. I was really trying to make this project more difficult than it was. I am sending this card to her as a thank you for a wonderful evening and the birthday gifts she gave to me.

Even though I haven’t accomplished as many things as I would have liked to with my day, I have enjoyed it very much. I was able to clean off my stamp area, clean off my “company” stamp area and clean up our family room. Maybe one day soon we will be replacing our living room furniture. It is suffering from “dog” abuse. Snickers actually has eaten a hole in the back. It is only four years old and I am truly disappointed with how poorly it has worn. It should still look fairly new.

Have a great night! Stamp Happy!

Today’s project was inspired by the other tag book I recently made. This time I used some of the $1.00 chipboard from Michael’s and cut out my super scallop dies from Sizzix

Each page is covered in DCSW patterned paper, sanded and sponged. Each peace is over stamped with images from a clear stamp set inkadinkado makes. I received the set as a gift.

Fine details include the scrabble type tiles, stamped images of friendship and love, ribbon and other fun embellishments. I really love the way the project looks girlie. With a house full of men, I need all the help I can get ;-).

Blog candy will begin again soon, so please continue to enjoy my blog and the projects I have to offer.

Stamp Happy stay warm and dry. Its cold and snowing here in Maryland!

Hello my crafty friends!

I hope you are enjoying a day of crafting! I have been doing the laundry and working on the project you see above. I cased it from my friend Amanda, she made a similar tag book as gifts for the party you see above.

Don’t forget that blog candy has now been extended until January 30. I am enjoying reading the comments. Please note, I have turned off the word verification and turned on the comments moderation. I have been receiving a few spams and am hoping to remedy the situation.

I know that I have mentioned in the past that my husband is retired Army. I am so super spoiled, more often than not I am treated when he does the grocery shopping, are you jealous yet? He even bought me some fresh flowers last time he went out! He knows how much I enjoy arranging them in the vase myself!

For the tag book, I used a retired super size scallop tag for the book, I used an empty soda box from my recycling bin to cut the tags and the paper is from DCSW it is double sided. To accent the tags even more, I used a Brilliant ink pad and stamped swirls. It is also embellished with dew drops and small crystals. I really like how the project turned out. I am sending it to my senior friend Ms. Vivian. She celebrated her birthday this month, and I want to get it postal tomorrow.

Have a great night, Stamp Happy!
