SPring is in the air, or NOT!

 Good Friday morning to you all...So this week has been an unbelievable week. We hit the 50's and 60's something which never happens until June sometime. And I am not kidding at all about that. Our snow is gone, the birds are singing, the grass is still brown, but one step at a time right. And believe it or not we have a snow storm due to hit us tonight and all day tomorrow. What crazy weather we are having. But with that taste of spring came the butterfly and bird craze....These beautiful Butterflies were given to me in pattern form, .svg to be exact, so if you have a digital cutter,(wishblade, silhouette, craft robo, or the ecut) you can also be cutting these beautiful butterflies. You can also cut them if you have the cricut and SCAL program. SO if any of you want these files just leave a message in this post and I will be happy to send you to the site I got them from. They really are pretty, and they cut effortlessly on any of the machines listed above.  They are beautiful when layered, and would be perfect on cards and scrapping layouts. Have a great day ladies.....

Altered CLipboard

 Good Monday Morning Ladies.....Hope you have had a great weekend! I did not do to much.  Everyone was gone for the weekend, so it was just me and my boys, (dogs) so we 3 just hung out and had I took me time. I guess I needed that with all thats gone on lately. Although I did manage to make a Cowgirl altered clipboard, for a door prize for our next meeting. I like to reward my girls in the club by giving everyone a chance to win something when they attend the meetings. And this is going to be next weeks prize for someone...They are kinda cuts, just add a photo and either hang them on the wall, or get a plate stand and display it that way. Its actually a lot brighter and prettier in person. Well off to be crafty...lol, well at least try to be....

Silhouette America....

So, I have tried card making, scrapbooking, altered arts, mixed media collage projects, rubber stamping, and just about every other paper craft known to (wo)man. And 1 things for certain, there are just some tolls a gal can not live without. Sadly for me there's more than just an item or 2  I can not live without.  The silhouette, started out spending more time in the box than it did cutting. Then I dedicated days to figuring out all the little perks  and possibilities it gave me.  Love at first cut..Know it spends so much time cutting, I do believe I am wearing my poor little girl out. She is slowing down and making odd noises. SO i have to be a bit more selective in what I ask her to cut and how much I ask her to cut. About 95% of everything I make I use my girl for. And shes feeling it...My latest project is a card, designed in inkscape, transported to my Silhouette, a quick conversion, and poof! a couple  cards....All they need now is some embellishments, and sparkly stuff.

So tell me ladies, what are your can not live without products.....

I am Home at last

 Hello all my crafty friends. I am home at last and let me tell you I am so happy to be back. I have missed my friends here in blog land. I can see I have lots to catch up on, and will enjoy every moment of it!!
First I wish to thank you ladies for the beautiful cards and wonderful words of support and encouragement. It was so nice to see and come home to. Thank you all very much...I returned on Saturday evening, and since I left in such a rush and left quite a mess, as you may recall, the new computers and I was in the middle of setting them up the way I wanted them when I got the word. SO the first thing I did after reading mail, a long hot bubble bath, and some rubbing and loving on my fur babies was to finish setting up the computers. SO this is my first post with my new toys, and I do love it. Have almost everything like I want it, but could wait no longer to get to my blog and all of your blogs. SO give me a day or 2 to get settled and caught up with all of your blogs. It truly great to be home! I have missed you all very much, and am suffering not only from blog hopping, but crafting in general. I have missed the ink stained fingers, and the glue stuck fingers. ANd the feel of paper. Ladies again thank you for all your support and wonderful kind words and prayers. You all rock!

A new day...

Ok, so I have  had a bit of time to let it all sink in...And even though I think it's way way over the top.  And they seem so so very happy and proud of themselves, I am going to say thank you, and accept the fact I can not change their minds, and take the responsibility that they are generous to a fault because they are great kids, and how can I be mad about that. How can I hurt there feelings. So I in turn would like to do something for them, I just don't know what, yet. Have a craft happy day everyone.....

Box contents.....AMAZING

 Hey Sisters, box update, before I opened the box i called the boys to let them know it arrived, they already knew that and must have been tracking it. The first thing I was told was, don't be mad, it's a gift from us to you, because they seem to think I deserve it. I promised not to be mad for very long, depending on what it was...
SO here we go, you ladies are NOT going to believe what is in these boxes!!! I started with the smallest box, it's a Netbook...have no idea what it is, what to do with it, or anything, so ok...I can learn I figure, I am smart that way.. The next box has a brand new hugs Laptop in it. I am excited, and my anxiety is grwoing A LOT! These are not cheap, and theres still 2 more boxes to go..SO the next box has a HUGE 22" flat screen monitor and brand new desktop computer system! ANd the final box has a new professional digital camera complete with case, 4 lenses, and more gadgets than I can count. My heart is pounding, my mind is spinning, and my anxiety is through the roof... This had to of been thousands of dollars! I can not keep all these items. They have to go back.  I   am having huge chest pains right now, and don't even know what to say.. I have called the boys and told them of my unhappiness, and that I want to return the items, and they said, "to bad" deal with it, they are yours, craft your heart out, and welcome to next century... I was instructed to leave the desktop in the box, and just play with the laptop and the Netbook, and if that made me smile, move onto the next box... I have to yet to do any of this. I am trying to justify all of this, and accept the fact that this is all sitting my living room. What would you ladies do in this situation? I mean it's not like they spent there pocket change. I do not want to hurt there feelings, but I feel so guilty, and so darn bad about this. I sincerely do not know what to do with this situation. I appreciate everything they have ever done for me, why can't they just be happy making a macaroni picture, or clay hand print?  Or better yet, just come for a visit. I wish I could contact Dell, and just have it returned. And pretend this never happened. I love my sons, and would never want to hurt them in anyway, but this is above and beyond what any child should be doing. I am truly very upset over this, and do not know what to do. Please anyone, advice is needed....

The Box...IT's HERE

Hey bloggering sisters....The box, is here...When the Fed Ex truck pulled up I was totally excited. He is a friend of ours, so all the markings on the box were covered with duct tape, a trick the boys and Jason our Fed Ex friend plotted and enlisted his help. SO I have no idea whats in the box just yet. It is very heavy, and there are 4 seperate boxes, not 1 big one. There is no invoice, only a shipping address, mine. So I am off to call the boys, open the box and get back to all of you....

Box update..and a family pic

 

Apparently I am not getting a clue today, they say I am too sneaky, what they really mean is I am too smart for them. They are very proud of themselves thinking they are one up on me. It's ok I want them to think that. So with that I thought I would just share a pic of my family, and show off my wonderful boys..Hope you do not mind...Back row left is Trevor, he is very handsome under that goofy hat...he is 21, in college, and working for his brother when he has time. He has a heart of gold. Middle is Arik, he is the oldest at 33. He was a marine, now is in college to get his degree, and is in Florida close to Joanne, so I may be visiting Joanne this summer when I go to Florida. He is a great guy, and would do anything at all for me or anyone else. Then there's Keith he is 30, use to be air force, now a cop, an accident reconstruction specialist, and has his own home building business, and pretty much the instigator of the bunch, if there's a practical joke, hes in the mix or the head dog...But  huge heart, and would again do anything for me. The boys are the greatest, and all are single, and I think all very handsome, and am not sure why they are all single, they have such big hearts and wonderful personalities any girl should be happy to get one of them.. And I would really like a couple daughter in laws, and grand babies, but they say whats the rush Mom, were still young, your still young, enjoy life a bit. They are my pride and joy. The rest in the photo is hubby on left, son in law, holding GD, dear sweet Adrianna  and my  daughter Tricia, and of course me.  SO possibly tomorrow I will get another clue...Although Trev is home, maybe I can pump him for info..hehe..Have a wonderful day ladies...Off to do some B hopping, and make something...

Box update and a card...

Hello crafty ones...Well my day was not a happy day, My best friends father had passed away, and the funeral was this morning...I stayed with her the day just for moral support in case she needed it. Her siblings never bothered to show, as they are all very selfish, so how could I just leave her..One can never have too many hugs in this situation.Anyway when I returned home I found another clue from the boys in an email...It says," Dear Mom, we know this making you crazy, and thats part of the fun we get to have...Were sure by now you weighed your saddle, and tack. And we seen the post, It's NOT the saddle, sorry maybe next time, as that is a great idea. Clue number 2....Inside the large box are at least 3 smaller boxes, and 1 of the items is black and a deep deep blue color...It makes NO noise at all.....and before you ask, the items do go together, somewhat. So there it is, clue number 2...

On a crafty note....Here is another card I attempted.... I promise the next one will be a lot better, and all stamping and coloring....I am putting my dies and cutters away....It's the only way I think this is going to happen....Have a wonderful everyone....

Good Monday Morning......

 Hello crafty ones.....I hope you are all having a great day. It's Monday the start of a new week. The start of a new to do list, and a bit of hoping to do things. I was just informed by my 2 sons that a big box is arriving for me. And in that box is a gift for me. It's not my Birthday as that was Christmas Eve, it's not Mothers day, and there reply was, can't we do things just because we love you? If I guess will you guys tell me..With 2 big grins and a couple sheepish smiles came a bog NO. SO I am left here wondering and full of anticipation. What could it be...They bought me the Gypsy and a bunch of other items for Christmas and mt Birthday. I have a computer, I have everything I need.SO I am a bit confused as to what it could be...These boys of mine are something, it's the same as a few years ago, on Christmas day a pkg arrived fed-ex for me. It was from my Son in Louisiana, in the envelope it simply said, for all the sacrifices you made, and for being the greatest Mom of all times...And in that envelope were 2 all expenses paid tickets on a 10 day cruise. I was floored. How can one top this. I wish they would not spend there money on me. As I am sure we all feel that way about our kids, It's like a code or something of Mom's. I feel so guilty when they buy me things or send me flowers for no reason. Anyway, back to stamp talk....After looking at that card and wondering what I was thinking, well, I tried something else hoping to do better...And well it's not any better, but with a lot of persistence I will get hang of this stamping....lol I hope! So I went back to my old way and pulled out the Sizzix, SIlhouette, Cricut, and a punch. And this is what I came up with.....

 

I did emboss the saying with Versa mark and gold embossing powder. SO there is a bit of stamping on this card.....SO there ya have it. Not completely stamped, but not completely scrapped either...It's the cowards way out....Ladies have a wonderful day, and a great week...

BOX UPDATE.....they were kind enough to give me a clue....the box weighs 72pounds...They know I have had my eye on that new Barrel Racing saddle, weighs about that much with the packing I suppose. That saddle is da bomb...Its ostrich seat, with silver and bling.......heres a pic...I hope this is it(keeping in mind mine would be a hunter green color, with the cowboy cross instead of the hearts).That would be fun to kick some can in!!!!.. If not, it will be fun playing the game....

My First Stamped card

Ok so here we go, you can laugh..I know it's not good....But none the less, it's my first stamped card, and a starting point. Which we all need...right... After it was all put together, I looked at it and thought, DUH!, it's almost like a scrap page, I should have pop dotted the image, or sentiment, more layering, and good grief wheres the ribbon and embellies??? So i am going to take this card and have a do-over! So this is the before pic...and will post an after pic when it's done. Boy you stampers, are amazing! This is tougher than an scrap page...

I have Spring fever

I am so so ready for Spring to come, and here in the Mid-west, WIsconsin actually, we do not see spring at least until May/June. Well thats how it has been the last few years anyway. Almost all of our snow is gone, and everything is dirty, muddy and icky looking. And over the weekend had 2" of rain. SO please Mother Nature, either snow, or put us in a early Spring. Due to my Spring Fever and longing to go some place tropical I created this altered lunch pail to keep my cold days warm, and me feeling oh so tropical.

I hope you all like it..It's still not a card of any sorts, but I could fill it with cards. I promise by weeksend I will have 1 stamped card, will conquer my fear, and just do it...I love cards, I love making cards, but do not have a clue how to do it, if it does not include cutting them either on my Cricut, or my SIlhouette. It's a fear of mine I have had for quite some time.SO new year, new goal...Fingers crossed...My dear sweet blogging sister re-assured me it was ok. But I can not stay in kiddie pool all my life. Right???Have a wonderful day to all my sisters, and friends.....

Easter Paper Piecings

Hello crafty ones.....Here is another paper piecing... This ones a bit different, It's a combination, of patterns from Myscrapchick, and Sizzix... The nice thing about doing paper piecing's, is they can made from anything. coloring book pages are a great sourcs to get patterns, and die, from sizzix, OK, spellbinders, or any other brands out there. And it is ok to mix and match them like I did here. The train, wagon, grass and eggs are Sizzix dies. The eggs were cut from glitter patterned card stock, and the rest cut from DCWV card stock. Then just layer them how want, and embellish. So if you have dies, there's no need to buy paper piece patterns. And again coloring books are a great place for patterns. So give them a try. And it will be no time at all before you are hooked on them...

A little chalk, ink, stickles, makers, or gel pens and you have the perfect combo for embellishing just about anything....Have a great day one and all...

The Great Outdoors Shape book

Here is a shape book I created for a swap over on cricut.com message boards...I love the word and shape books, cause there never seems to be an end to the possibilities. With this book I thought do something male themed, as I have 5 outdoorsmen in my life and ribbons and lace just does not do there photos justice....So here is what I came up with...

Not a very good photo, but I was trying to show all the layers of trees and tons of pop dots used to give the forest dimension.

Anyway, the cartridges used on this book are base camp for the pages and Camp out for everything else. I cut the mountains and trees into each page and then cut tons more of trees and mountains to give it a layered look, so eack page shape is either mountains or trees. And of course you don't have to do it this way, I did just because it was a challenge for me as I have never done one like it.

You can ahead and add a ton more of embellishments or even switch it up to make it your own, this one covers, hunting and camping. The most time was coloring and shading the trees and popping them out. ladies I hope you like the book I created just for you...
