Big heart



Good Morning!
The last few days I have been busy making a few gifts for my nieces graduation from Grade 12.
Her graduation is this weekend, I am sure it will be a great time for her and all her friends. My sister is having a family get together to celebrate. It seems like she was just born and now she has turned 18 at the beginning of May and now graduation. Crazy how time flies....
I'll have to take a few pictures and post them on her to share the great gifts I have put together for her.

I have had this card made for quite some time and haven't shared it. So I am today, this image is sooo adorable and could be used for so many different cards, like an anniversary, birth of a child, Valentines Day. The possibilities are endless. This great image is called Baby Bears Big Heart and can be found at Miss Daisy's Stamps or click here. This image also comes with a bonus file with sentiments on it. . I made this card as a Valentines Day card for my daughter. That's why I put the be mine ribbon on the card.




Thanks for stopping by: 
Have a fantastic rest of your week and I'll see you next week.

Owl Ways Party


Hi there glad to see you popped by again.
It's finally decide to rain here thank goodness cause there have been so many forest fires. It started raining last night and it is still raining, everything has definitely turned a more beautiful green.We have had numerous ones fairly close and it leave an uneasy felling inside you to think that a forest fire can cause so much devastation and Alberta I think has seen enough of that.

I'm happy to be up and posting every week.
 I always try to do something different with my creations. I try not to ever make the same card twice. Unless it's like a wedding invitation or Thank you cards.
This card was made to be a little ones birthday card. I love this little image, so much fun to color.
This one is called Owl-Ways Party from Miss Daisy Stamps. This image also has a bonus file with some great sentiments in it. It's great to get the bonus file with sentiments cause once you print them off you can use them for this image on a card or for any others that you may have. It's always nice to have some on hand especially if you don't have the stamps 



 I added little dots around the image with my copic markers to give the image a bit of a background. I also added some stickles to add a bit of shine to the image.....who doesn't like a bit of glitter.

Thank you for stopping by:
So glad to see you and I'm hoping that I've given you a little inspiration to get in touch with your inner self and create!

Raggedy Girl Nurse


Welcome back!

I have officially been off of crutches  a little more than a week and I couldn't be happier about it. I had never been on crutches before I broke my foot and I have a whole new appreciation for anyone that has to use them. It is a lot of work, hard on your hands ( I now have callouses on each one), hard on your back, hard on your chest muscles. I also appreciated everyone who helped me out.... for ever single person who held a door or packed something for me. I guess most of all my daughter and husband who helped me do things around the house, packed things for me, drove me around to appointments, for groceries etc, etc, etc.  The list goes on like ...13 weeks long.  I read a lot, watched t.v and colored a lot of images. It took me a bit to get into making the cards, cause to move around my scrapbook room was a challenge as well as frustrating. So for  the first quite a few weeks I just colored at my kitchen table.
 So I had this image colored long before I was able to create with it and make this card.
I made a get well card using this absolutely wonderful image called Raggedy Girl Nurse from
 Miss Daisy Stamps. ( click here to jump to the store)
 This digital image as has a bonus file with some great sentiments included. The "Get Well" is one of the sentiments.
A closer look at my colored image.
 I enjoyed making this card ,
 I hope you grab a image and create something fun.

Pretty Petals 1


Glad to you popped into my blog!
Today I have created a very special card for a very special person in my life....  My husband.
His birthday was on April 29 and I made this card for him. Everyone loves sunflowers they are so bright and cheery. So is this image I absolutely loved working with this one. This image is from Miss Daisy Stamps and is called Pretty Petals 1. My daughter and husband just planted about 5 different kinds of sunflowers, we will see what we get when the grow and how big they get. I can't wait to see them in the fall.

A closer look at pretty petals 1.
 I added little water droplets to add just a little more detail to the card.
Thank you for stopping by and I'll see you again next week.

 I just wanted to add a little note....speaking of rain. Here in Alberta, Canada we could sure use some.  Especially in Fort McMurray!
The whole city has been evacuated and the forest fire continues to grow. So many people have lost everything... so sad it breaks my heart. I'm sure if you have watched the news you have seen what has been going on. 
This disaster has been so devastating and has affected the whole country, I'm so proud of all the people who are helping by donating, getting things together to send to the evacuees. 
In my community there have been quite a few people that are here staying after their devastating loss. It's so nice to see that so many people have pulled together to help. 
There are so many bad things going on in the world, bombing, people hurt other people, but this has helped restore my faith in humanity.
