Sassenech Anya




Here is another Greeting Farm Anya card that I finished tonight. Like I said, I love this little girl and wished that I had all of them, but alas it is not to be right now.




This is the Sassenech Anya digi from The Greeting Farm, paper is Basic Grey Ambrosia. She was colored with prismacolor Markers.


As you can tell, I am trying to learn how to shade the hair a bit differently and didn't have a lot of success on this one, but I am learning.


Hope you enjoy my little lady.

Another Country Anya



Thought I'd share another version of Country Anya that I also finished last night.
This little lady is also done with The Greeting Farm Country Anya digi stamp. The paper is from the Basic Grey Eva line.
The flower is a prima flower and i used a fiskar border punch. She was colored with Prismamarkers and tri-art markers.

I've been MIA



Well, I guess I have been MIA for a long time, about 16 months to be exact. I am going to try and get back into the swing of things and start sharing again, I really miss it.

School is out until August now, we have finished putting most of the house together, well the house it put together, it is just having that big yard sale to get rid of a bunch of stuff.

I have started working on cards again. It took quite a while after getting into this house, but I think I finally have it together again.

Though they been out for some time, I have discovered the world of Magnolia Stamps and The Greeting Farm Anya and Ian. Love these little people.

I needed to get an Anya and Ian fix, and get it quick so I bought some digi stamps to keep me going for a while.

Here is the first card I did with one of the images.


The stamp is The Greeting Farm Country Anya Digi, paper is Basic Grey Marrakech, word is from SU, cardstock and brads are ones that have been in my stash for a while.

Christmas In February


I did not get to make Christmas cards this year. :( So, I have decided to start on my Christmas cards early. This card was very easy to color and put together. I found the sketch here .
Stamp is PSX
Paper is Basic Grey Wassail
and SU Cranberry Crisp
Miscellaneous buttons from
my stash.

Finished Room

The stamp room is finished. I can once again find what I am looking for in there. No more hunting for stamps. I have been hearing, can you keep it that way and I believe I can. I know how much work it took to put this room in order, don't think I want to have to have to do it all over again. To keep from doing that, I will put my stamps away when I take them back into the stamp room. Now my work table is a different story. I may have stamps piled on it, but once they go back to the stamp room, they will be put away. Hope you enjoy the pictures.

Where Has The Time Gone?

I can't believe how long it has been since I last posted here. But for those who don't know, hubby and I have finally gotten our own home. We were 10 months from the first time we looked until we finally closed on a house. And boy has it been a long 10 months. I can't believe we have already been here a month.

I am not back to stamping yet as I am still setting up my rooms. Yes rooms. I will have a stamp room, where I will keep all my stamps and then I will have my work room that I will share with hubby as I did before.
Here a a couple of pictures of my stamp cases that I have since filled, but since the room isn't finished yet I haven't taken the after pictures.












These shelves are now full. Did not realize how many stamps I really had until putting them away. But all my loose stamps are on the shelves and organized. My stamps have never been organized before this.

I still have a ton of Stampin' Up to sort and put away now. I hope to get to work on this sometime this weekend, but if it doesn't get done, I will get to it when I get to it.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope to once again be sharing some creations in the near future, especially since I keep buying stamps though I really don't know where I will put them. LOL

Tri Shutter Card


I have seen several of these cards made and just had to give it a try. Had been putting it off thinking it was going to be very complicated, it's not. A bit time consuming for the first one, but I expect the next one will go quicker.
Netta orginally shared this card with us, check out Netta's Blog.
I had fun with this card and plan to make another one real soon.
Here are the
instructions.

Mustard Seed


I just acquired this stamp, along with several others like it this weekend. The stamp is made by 'Stampourri' and dated 1995. I absolutely love this image and the bible verse with it. Which is so true, If we just have faith, we can do anything.

The paper used is some paper that I have had for quite a while and decided it needed to be used, the cardstock is from Stampin' Up.


Sorry I Haven't Been Around Much


I couldn't believe that it has been over a month since I last posted here. I've been bad. Anyway, what has gone on. School is back in session and so I am back at work. Can't wait until things settle down at school. Just found out that I have a large shipment of books waiting to be checked in and sent to classrooms in the morning. Hopefully I'll be able to make some teachers extremely happy, which will make me happy, no more teachers getting upset because I have no books for new students.

I have still been making cards, I have quite a few to share, but one at a time.
This first one is from a set that I just acquired from SU. It is called 'Faeries'. It is retired and was difficult to get, but finally was able to get my hands on it.
Paper is from Bo-Bunny and brads were some that I have had for some time.
