Convention Display Boards | Little Hearts


I wanted to created a water color effect when I first created this card.  I did this by using my Stampin' Up! markers over the stamp. Then I misted the stamp with water and stamped.  Although I got that effect, it was missing something.  I then colored in the little hearts.  Yip.  That's what it was missing.  Simple but cool. You gotta love simple! (and cool)

Convention Display Boards | Scattered Love

 This stamp set is growing on me.

It's not one I would ever have picked out.
But when you emboss it with gold.
Wow.

Convention Display Boards | One cool fox


Seriously??!?!?!

That fox is ADORABLE.

For this card, I used Stampin' Up!'s blendabilities - and how I love thee (let me count the ways).

My Paper Pumpkin Challenge | Give it Pretty Project #4

Simple is my happy.
Why do I need anything more when its already so cute?
But one trick was that I did turn the pie box inside out!

This project was created for the My Pumpkin Challenge design team!
There's still time to play along - you have until the end of the month!


I also played with the yellow wool that the kit came with inspired by the wired names that my friends are making lately.
I can't wait to show you December's kit!
It's so awesome!

Convention Display Boards | Thankful for doilies and stencils


ahhhhhh...

I love the stencils that Stampin' Up! has incorporated in their product line... Paired with the small tea lace doilies, it creates a lovely elegant feel.

Convention Display Boards | Project Life canvas


Hi again!

This is actually a piece of canvas from the Build a Banner Simply Created kit by Stampin' Up! I lightly spritzed some pink background and then sewed a PL card onto the canvas.  It's perfect. And it's easy.

Convention Display Boards | Amazing You!

Hi!
Use baker's twine to make a border.
It's a good idea!
Especially if its in the color of strawberry slush.

Pretty Little Packages | Fancy Friday Blog Hop

It's here's whether you like it or not.
Christmas.
And I got my jingle bells on... Elf on the Shelf pinterest boards ready to Gee 2 the Oh. (That's 'go' in human speak) I got my solar christmas lights ordered and I dream of Starbucks red cups... although something tells me those Tim Hortons cups may be outstanding this year... they better be red or this will be the year I complain.


Sometimes my kid doesn't like to listen.
That's right.
I said it OUT loud.
But my "model" did squeak out these three photos for me to give you a sneak peek of why Mingle Everything is the best stamp ever.
Hmmm.  
You ain't gotta do a th-ang, chicken wh-ang.
This stamp does all the work.
Its simply lovely.



Ta-Da!
Right.
I might "hire" her again.
I mean, one gummy worm per photo is worth it, right?
Even if it is 8am?
(She also had to promise me that she wouldn't tell daycare that she had gummy worms for 'post breakfast'**... even though Alice in Wonderland says its "perfectly normal")

 This is the shizzle I was dealing with this morning...
(but I loved every moment... only now... not then..)
Wait. 
I am a perfectly good mother.  I loved every minute.
Mothers never lie.

WINNER OF NOVEMBER HOP:
MARTHA
My apologies for the delay - I travelled to space and lost of concept of time. Right? 
Martha - email me at inthecatcave@hotmail.com to get your prize! 
You have until November 27th!

Hop along to see what's next!
Here's Cindy!

Cheers!
Cathy

** Post breakfast.. my family tends to have pre-breakfast then breakfast and then post breakfast. Then snack, pre-lunch, lunch and post lunch... you get the picture.
