Happy Hopper Gate Fold Card

Finally finished another card.  I finished the image last night, but have been sitting here looking at it trying to decide how I wanted to finish it.  Remembering that I had a bunch of scor-pal tutorials to try, I picked one.  Of course I picked a very simple fold, but still one that I hadn't done before.  Very easy to fold this one.  One that I will do again, as it is easy and it has a nice look to it.

The only problem with this card is keeping it closed.  I fixed that problem by using the brad button in just the right spot to hold the image and keep the card closed.
I used the Happy Hopper stamp It's my Party, prismamarkers, SU cardstock and dsp.  Not sure the company on the brad button.

Center Step Card

I have finally made my first center step card.  The directions can be found here at SCS.  I had put off trying this card as I thought it would be difficult, but this card is so easy to make.



Once again I used one of digi stamps.  This is cupcake Anya.  All of the paper is from my stash and I don't remember who it is from.  Anya was colored with copics and prismamarkers.

Here is the side view of the card:

I want to thank everyone for stopping by.  I love the comments and they keep me going.  Thank you so much.



Country Anya with Mojo Monday Sketch

How is everyone this evening?  I have been busy with different projects today, but have finished 2 different cards.  The first one is Country Anya.  On the House Mouse group the Mojo Monday Sketch was shared with us.  I really liked the looks of this sketch and this is my take on it.  Hope you enjoy.

Here is the sketch that I used:



I used The Greeting Farm Country Anya digi stamp.  Colored her with prismamarkers.  All of the paper is items that have been in my stash for some time, so I am not sure what it is.

Thanks for visiting.

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
