<br />
Hi again, after making up some cards for my Wednesday card group I had some pieces left over so I decided to make a card with the pieces. Nothing fancy and I am sure you have seen enough of Fresh Vintage samples but it really is the greatest Sale-a-bration stamp in my books anyway.<br />
<br />

<br />
I colored the image with the SU markers, stamped onto Whisper White and then used the Designer Frame to emboss the image. I have a silver of Riding Hood Red under that and finally layered with Whisper White that I cut out with one of my Scalloped border dies.<br />
<br />
The larger piece of Riding Hood Red was embossed with the Elegant Bouquet folder then I sponged some Riding Hood Red on it giving kind of a suede look to the piece. Then I cut the Dotted Ribbon Border piece in half and adhered it to each end of the DSP. Thanks for stopping by.<br />

Hi Stampers,<br />
<br />
I sure do not like how my Blogger is working these days, things seem so messed up some how, maybe its me. LOL<br />
<br />
I need to come up with two Valentine/Something Else cards for my ladies on Wednesday, one wants Valentines and one wants the same card as the others but not Valentines. Hummmm<br />
<br />
So this is what I have come up with so far. I don't think it screams Valentines but it could be or could just be for someones special day.<br />

Hi Stampers:<br />
<br />
My Blogger has been not working properly so hence the delay in my posts.<br />
<br />
My card today uses one of the stamps from Friends Never Fade. I used SU markers to color the stamp. The colors I used were Marina Mist, Cherry Cobbler, Bravo Burgundy, Always Artichoke. I wanted to try to come as close as I could to the DSP in Paisley Petals.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I used a Cuttlebug embossing folder for the design on the first layer. I embossed the flower image using one of the Designer Frames. Then I decided I liked this so much I did another one using a different layout.<br />
<br />

When I stamped the image part of it was missing where the DSP and the card base met, but I was able to color it in with the markers. Thanks goodness!<br />

Hi Everyone:<br />
<br />
Finally got all my stuff put away from my weekend away. I took too much next time I will have to try to plan better. How do you guys figure out what to take?<br />
<br />
My card today is a pretty simple card. It only uses two inks and one was just for sponging purposes.<br />
<br />
I used a Martha Stewart punch for the branches and made the curly sprigs by wrapping a thin piece of card stock around a small screw driver. I added some small pearls on the branches but you may not be able to see them.<br />
<br />

<br />
I had a great time at my scrapbook retreat. I always do cards but most do scrapbooking or some of both. I always enjoy this time as there are no phones ringing and when we look outside we look out at natures beauty and sometimes a few deer.<br />
<br />
I used all new materials from the new Occasions Mini except for the first layer which was Riding Hood Red. I love the new Saleabration Designer Series Paper. It is very vintagey if that is a word. LOL I love the new Dollie die although you do have to have some patience poking out all the little pieces I used a pencil and rolled it around and many feel out very easily.<br />

<br />
I spent Christmas with my son in Medicine Hat it was a great time, great weather. I truly am so very proud of what he has accomplish in the last few years. I used to worry so much about him but he has grown into a fine adult man. While I was there I told him that I was going to turn things around back home this year. I called it something that I will not repeat on here but basically it means that I am going to stop being what everyone thinks I should be and start being who I really am and who God created me to be.<br />
<br />
All of my life I have being trying to live up to everyones expectations, not wanting to speak up because I may hurt someones feelings or offend them. It was ok for them to offend and hurt me but I had myself on such a high expectation level that I often felt depressed etc. To the point I would not leave my home cause I knew that I was so depressed and pissed off at the whole world.<br />
<br />
I have since come to the conclusion that I don't have to be what others think I should be ( I know I am a good person etc.) I was so scared to say anything that I would say nothing ... no wonder some thought I was abrupt. I was never rude, just got to the point and said no more, nicely.<br />
<br />
After reading Gina K.'s blog today I thought I would also share how I have been feeling although the folks that should read this won't at least I will be confessing to how I have been feeling. I don't usually make resolutions for the new year and I am not about to now, but I am going to stop letting my feelings/emotions rule me I am taking control and ruling them from here on in. No more letting things upset me to the point my whole day, month, year is ruined. <br />
<br />
This is Gina's mantra for 2012 and I am jumping on board with her. <br />
<br />
My mantra for 2012 is:<br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue; font-size: large;"><strong>"How others treat me is their path. How I respond is mine."</strong></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: black;">I am going to a scrapbook retreat this weekend and I will start posting cards again next week. Thank you for letting me share the above I hope all of you have a great 2012.</span><br />

I thought the sentiment was so appropriate for todays world. We are all so busy doing Christmas shopping, cooking, etc. But how many of us really stop to think about what Christmas is really all about. It is about the birth of Jesus our Saviour and yet how many of us take the time to even say, "Happy Birthday Jesus" at Christmas. We really need to stop and make room for him in our lives for all of our blessings.<br />

If things had not changed today I figured I would have to seek medical help but I am happy to say I feel better, not great but better. <br />
<br />
I thought to take my mind off my sickness I would putter around my stamp room. I did not feel like stamping. Then I came across a image that I had already colored up with my markers and decided to finish it off. <br />

I usually go through my stash of items I have previous cut, punched etc that did not get used to see if I can use any of them on a card. Today's card is made up of all those unused elements. Well I am tired now so I think I will go for a nap and feel better.<br />

I was hoping to avoid it but no such luck. So a short post today with my card. <br />
<br />
I made this card with my weekly class in mind, they really like masculine cards and I always find it a challenge to come up with them, to make them clean and simple. <br />
<br />
Here is my card.<br />

I saw this on Sandi McIvors blog or maybe her newsletter. I thought that it was a great idea, as it would give me my sizes for my layers especially if you are using a layout over and over. Takes away the need to guess as to what you used. I also mark the stamp sets name and everything I used then hopefully when I blog I will have all the info right there for what I used. Sandi used the grid paper from Stampin Up but I decided to use a notebook so I could take it with me when I go to my annual crop in the new year. <br />
<br />
I actually stamp the images right on my sketch to audition them in that layout. It is a bit time consuming but what else do I have to do. LOL<br />
<br />
Anyway, enough jabbering here is my card. <br />
<br />

I ran my Whisper White pad over top of the Embossing panel to give it a bit of a distressed look. Thanks for stopping by. <br />

<br />
In my endeavours to try to stamp more often I am allowing myself to do what ever I feel like on my cards. I am a Stampin Up demo, but my customer base is low and I think I am turning into a hobby demo. So I am just going to enjoy the journey as they say. <br />
<br />
I said all of that because I used Copic Markers to color my stamped image. Everything else is Stampin Up. I tried to copy the colors used in the DSP Paisley Petals with the colors I have in the markers. I do not own hundreds like some. But I do enjoy coloring tight spots with them like the stamped image on this card. I tried to moddle the inside of the big leaves like the paper but it did not quite come out like I had hoped but it still looks pretty good in my opinion.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3v4NaYk8aboMlacsvtxlyeg1M1Iht4vrQiFJH8Rdf4Xv8YhMinfmh2XpwHur11zsyt31sKPmq8fLQwQzo46KZk2buG8ob5z7FaHmo08CdkaOXZ9fESbBoesp7Y80J5M137iDTyN74v2xt/s1600/IMG_8253.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" hda="true" height="240px" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3v4NaYk8aboMlacsvtxlyeg1M1Iht4vrQiFJH8Rdf4Xv8YhMinfmh2XpwHur11zsyt31sKPmq8fLQwQzo46KZk2buG8ob5z7FaHmo08CdkaOXZ9fESbBoesp7Y80J5M137iDTyN74v2xt/s320/IMG_8253.jpg" width="320px" /></a></div><br />
The only other thing I did was to add the DSP on the bottom and punch it with the Scallop Border punch and I added some stitching with my white Signo Pen after I got it to work another neglected item that was found. Oh and I rounded the top of the card, again, something I seldom do but looks good here.<br />

I have been finding that if I can't see it, or at least be able to get at it I won't use it. <br />
<br />
I have always had a place/organizer for my punches, pads etc. but there are so many other items that we have that I forget I have them or don't bother to use them because to get at them means moving something etc. Well, I think I managed to get a good start on being able to find what I want, when I want and I did not purchase anything new to accomplish this. That is the best part.<br />
<br />
Anyway here is the card I created after I cleaned up. I found my background stamps and used the polka dots on the chocolate chip layer. See one found item used already. LOL<br />
<br />

I drove into town this afternoon for some groceries and over the lake it looked so glumey and dark. I guess that is because of the moisture coming out of the lake before it freezes. <br />
<br />
I love watching the boats in summer on the lake, it is so relaxing. Then one of those sea doos comes roaring by and spoils the tranquil moment. LOL<br />
<br />
Anyway, my card today is a masculine birthday. Very easy to copy and please do. I decided to heat emboss the images as I could not get a real crisp image on the Crumb Cake like I wanted. <br />

I have been having a pity party for awhile now but I am starting to come out of it.<br />
<br />
I really liked the sketch for Mojo Monday yesterday and decided to see what some of the ladies had come up with.<br />
<br />
I fell in love with Mary Fish's color combo. Decided to give it a try and fell on love with Island Indigo.<br />
<br />
So here is my card using Mary for inspiration.<br />
<br />
I am also using my iPhone for this post do we will see how that works.<br />

<br />
I am incredibly thankful today. We finally have decided on what kind of gazebo we are going to build, and we even got our approval from the Condo Board. We still have to get the building permit stuff but the Condo board is the first hoop and we should be good to go.<br />
<br />
My Stampin Up order just arrived so I have a few new goodies to play with. Finally, the weather is gorgeous so who would not be happy. <br />
<br />
Oh and my card today is a Thank you <strong>hum, how about that!</strong><br />
<br />
<br />

Ok some details about this card, I layered my focal image on a piece of whisper white that was embossed with the Lattice Folder. I had this doilie that I had taken from a sandwich that I was served because I thought to myself I could use that someday, well it is someday today. I tucked the doilie under the peice of Night of Navy and placed this on the embossed piece.<br />
<br />
I used my nestabilities die to cut my scallop circle and then cut the stamped image with a circle nestabilitiy. I colored the image with markers and stamped the Thank You at the bottom. <br />
<br />
So there you have it. Have a great day.<br />

We sure are enjoying our weather these days although there is still alot of concern for the fall winds that may threaten our lake shores. But for now we are good, dry and happy.<br />
<br />
I had put a card very if not exactly like the one I showed on SCS and I was overwhelmed with the hits on it. So I thought I would try another out of my box combination. One thing I promised myself or made a goal to do was to use my stamp sets more and more often by trying things that are not what most of us would do so hence the color combo's.<br />
<br />
I ran my first layer of Black through the Lattice Embossing folder only 3/4 's of the way. I then added my DSP which had added a piece of Calypso Coral that had been punched with the ScallopTrim Border Punch.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZJ4I-j0YI38ceHUZJ9QOfX7FZTu1-cSWalDNwm8402FTYxRHLbcsmSyWHEp53SjsuxrtwSJyidSgMwhMi1IM2X4LQUtnGQArARRUgvd9EsBKZuSonSygQTaSH7RL3ZF_Re-z4Gwjh1JOf/s1600/Calpyso+Coral+French+Foliage.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320px" qaa="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZJ4I-j0YI38ceHUZJ9QOfX7FZTu1-cSWalDNwm8402FTYxRHLbcsmSyWHEp53SjsuxrtwSJyidSgMwhMi1IM2X4LQUtnGQArARRUgvd9EsBKZuSonSygQTaSH7RL3ZF_Re-z4Gwjh1JOf/s320/Calpyso+Coral+French+Foliage.jpg" width="240px" /></a></div><br />
The stamped images where stamped in Calypso Coral, Alway Artichoke (rock and roll) and Basic Grey. I stamped the sentiment in Black and sponged basic grey on it while it was still in my nestabilites die. Then I added this whole piece to my Whisper White card base.<br />

<br />
I embossed the Hello Doily background stamp with white embossing powder then sponged Soft Suede over it. Then I randomly stamped the doilies from Delicate Doilies with Soft Suede and sponged the edges.<br />

I add some Baja Breeze seam binding ribbon On the side. <br />
<br />
For the stamped image I colored it as i did in the previous post and then layered it on a Early Expresso circle. I placed this in the centre of the Doily.<br />
<br />
I stamped the sentiment in Soft Suede and cut it out with one of my Nestability dies. I sponged Crumb Cake on the edges.<br />

Sorry I have been MIA, I had my son and his fiance here from Alberta and well you all know how time flys when you are having fun.<br />
<br />
I have been feverlessly working on some new cards for the Farmers Market. I have been experimenting with Karen Barbers three color, coloring technique. I quite like it. <br />

The customers just thought they were a riot. I did have some trouble figuring out a layout for her, I must admit.<br />
<br />
I colored here dress different colors and then choose card stock around the color of her dress. Next time I may do it the other way around may make it easier, this color combination was great not too much can go wrong with pink and brown.<br />
