W is for Women

This was also a fun theme. I went for vintage (surprise, surprise).


Sunny. Love the perfume bottles with the highlight

Jerri. Just two friend having tea...coffee + goodies. Fun!

Gretchen. Great saying!

Deb. I think this is a new SU shoe, love the embossing

Me. I have no idea where I got the "fe-Mail" stamp as I unmounted it. The paper is graphic 45 I think with a woman's face stamp from Invoke.

Rolodex U is for universe

Here are the U rolodex cards. I don't remember if I posted my individual creations previously...have to forgive my memory! I really liked this theme as I have always been enamored with the stars...moons... really anything celestial. Great work everyone.

Happy Halloween

HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE!!!  I have been very far behind in my Halloween cards this year. I did get these done and sent to my kiddos just in time.  I have never used this SU set, I don't know why because it is cute. It also was a chance to use up some old paper I had as well.  I used my vagabond and dies for the circles. I used my watercolor pencils to color the images. I am not proficient with markers and I like the subtle look of the water color.


The googly eyes have been sitting in a drawer for a long time as well. I thought they made the flowers extra creepy!

Follow up to the homemade noodles

Well....they actually were not so yummy after sitting over night...more like bloated sacks of gluten. Oh Well!

Halloween Cupcakes

I got inspired and decided to make cupcakes for work for Halloween. I won't actually be there for the holiday as Wednesday is my day off. I can't remember ever making cupcakes from scratch...yes its true...no box!  The tombstone are vanilla and the bats are chocolate. Both have buttercreme frosting.  I dug out my old cookie press as well. These were fun to make and Jeff got the "ruined" ones and said they were good. Well...how can butter and sugar be bad! LOL

The white things are bone shaped candy which you can see better in the following picture. Sorry they are slightly blurry. It was a long evening.

Fall wreath for Mom

I haven't made a wreath in a while so I decided to make one for my Mom to brighten up her room.  Halloween would be way past by the time she got her package so I made a fall theme which would last her until Christmas!

The flowers are felt cut with Tim Holtz tattered flowers and leaves. The covering is actually more of a "tape" like yarn which made this go really fast!
