Gracias!


I made this Thank you Card for Alison from Expressions using the embossed scraps of paper she let me take home last night. The power went off just as I got home from class, so I had to make this entire card by candle light. With my bad eyesight it's amazing the colors matched.


I soooooo want the Cuttlebug!


Look how cute the Thank you embossing die cut is....all together now..."AAWWWW!"

That was the last stamped image I had from the stash Kristine send me...I love stamped images, but I just totally suck at stamping them myself. Maybe Im using the wrong ink or paper???
Oh well, at least I FINALLY posted a new card :)

Cheers !

Im in love!


with the "cuttle bug"!


Last night Expressions had a class on all their die cut machines. I took the time out and
attended because I sooo sooo soo want a die cut machine, but I wasn't sure which one I wanted.
Well, after last night I have definitely made up my mind. I want...I NEED a Cuttle bug!

I must have embossed every scrap of paper in sight! I'm hooked!

Once I get my bills paid up, and pay my GINORMOUS power bill, your mine baby!!

FINALLY

I finally found some time to set aside to do some card making. I joined this card exchange and the task was to create 8 shaped cards. All the cards had to be the same shape. I had a hard
time deciding on what shape to use...I almost went with a fish bowl, but then decided on an owl at the last minute because the phrase "HOO loves ya, baby!" was stuck in my head for some reason : ) Anyway, so I did all 8 owls last night and my hand hurt from all the cutting!!! The pictures aren't the greatest because I totally forgot to take pictures at home, so I rushed to take a few before I turn them in this evening....

Thanks for giving a HOOT and checking out my blog!
