Lovely Butterflies

1_butterfly_card Here is a card I did in tonights class.  I'll take pictures of the rest of the class stuff and put in my next post.  The paper used is Bazzill and the Butterfly stamps are by Savvy Stamps.  This is a whole stamp set.  It comes with 6 coordinating stamps.  The dotted background is by Outlines Rubber stamps.  The little butterfly in the center is stamped and the wings are cut out so that it adds dimension to the card.  The ribbon is a metallic sheer blue.  I used Versafine's Majestic Blue and a lighter cats eye blue for the background.



The class went well tonight.  We had fun.  The dotted background was a hit.  We are sold out at the store and I got preorders for more.  YIPPEE!! 



I am having problems with our website tonight.  Hopefully hubby can figure it out.  Not sure what is going on with it.  Verry Frustrating.  Especially since I wasn't blessed with patience.

Here is a picture of Gato.  I was getting ready to go into the store last Friday and he jumped in my bag.  I guess he wanted to be the "shop" kitty.  I think he would go nuts he was at the store.  He is kinda shy around people he don't know.  He does love to aggravate his mommy.  I have to pretend to put food in his bowl so he will eat whats in there.  Silly Kitty..



Have a wonderful "bloggin" Day! 



Three Little Piggies

Annas_3_little_piggies I just love Inky Antics rubber stamps.  They are so cute!  This is one little pig stamp that I stamped on one piece of CS twice with a little space in the middle and then masked out the piggies and stamped in the center.  On a separate piece I stamped him once and cut him out.  I colored them in with Prisma colored pencils and gamsol.  The cut out I used pop dots to have him stand out.  Used ribbon to tie around the tail.  (actually I just tied a knot in the ribbon and then cut it and attached with mini glue dot)  I then stamped in versamark on the rust paper and the khaki paper.  The rust paper I used the feed bag from Inky Antics.  And on the Khaki I used the cute little piggie again.  I attached all the pieces and then I put glossy accents on the nose to add dimension. 



I know I have been MIA lately.  It seems like this month is filled with birthdays!  Last week was my husbands and yesterday way my nephew who turned 21.  We went to dinner with the family last night at a Mexican restaurant.  I chose the steak with rice other little sides and Sangria and I drank mostly water.  I had to be responsible!  he he...  the name of the restaurant is:  El Norte off route 46.



All tax paperwork is turned in.  (yes nothing like the last minute).  House is somewhat clean.  Clothes are washed and almost all folded..    DH has drill this week end so it will be me and the babies.  (dogs and cat...lol)  (yes they are my babies...)



I working at the store today.  So I hope to get some stuff done.  And I hope I can stamp some things too.  We will see.  I did bring my bag of tricks..lol  Stamping and scrapping tricks.  :) 



Have a wonderful blogging day!  Talk to you soon!

Just Buggy....

Bug_hammock_1 Yesterday I didn't work at the store.  (Stampingly Yours)  My hubby filled in while I was away for the day.  He was a a great help.  I had to work at my day/part time job until 1pm and then my business Partner and dear friend Jeanne and I went to a stamp show in Pennsaukken.  (however you spell it..lol)  Mainly to see Inky Antics and friends.  We me the owner Tom.  Who we also met last year when we went to the same show just a different location.  He was kind enough last year to give us catalogs even though we didn't have any paperwork to show that we are a business..  And this year he let us pick right off the shelf.  What a nice company.  They are filled with so many samples that just makes you want to go home and create it just like they have it.  We had a great time. 



The card above was CASED by one of their samples they had.  Today I just wanted to stamp and I didn't want to have to think up a design.  I am sure you all had those kind of days where you just wanted to create but not think think think..lol  Plus I had and still have a headache brewing in my head.  But I really wanted to stamp. 



I bought some other stamps yesterday as well.  Wait until you see what I have in mind for them.
