Cards and more cards!

I'm back......sort of!

Well after I made that batch of cards life decided to get busier than it already was and I haven't had a chance to pop back on here!

I have still been busy making cards and such, just haven't had a moment to post them here, and tell you all about them.

Well, it's still pretty busy here, so I'm sorry I'm just gonna post some cards I've been working on lately, and had time to photograph! and then I'm gonna run again!

Lots of stuff on my plate these days, and little time for fun.......like card making and my paper crafting!

I promise to be back again soon...........really......honestly.......soon!!!

Take care till then, and hope you like my new ones.

PS - I haven't even had a chance to list these on my etsy shop yet, but if you are interested in anything you see here, just give me a shout. If you'd like something custom done, give me a shout! I've already been approached for a couple of custom things, and those are the ones I love doing, so please, don't hesitate........give me a shout! LOL!!

I've finally been card making again!

My SIL has asked me to make a few cards for her and I am so excited. I love making cards, but I love it more when I have a purpose for making them, or know who they are for!

I'll just share a couple of them with you, as I don't want her peeking and seeing them before she receives them! LOL!!!

Kids are back in school soon, so I'm hoping to have a little bit more time to pop in here a bit more often. Well at least I have good intentions.........LOL!!!

Let me know what you think, and I'll see you again shortly!

Take care,

Summer's been Busy!

With the kids home this summer, it's been busy around here, trying to keep them active. But I found some time to get a few cards done! Haven't had a chance to list them in my Etsy shop yet, but they should be there in the next few days.

Hope your summer is going fantastic, and I hope I'll be here a bit more frequently come September......LOL!!!

The card with the little lamb is one of my favorites!

Mini Paper bag Wedding Photo Album in Pink and Black

Hello there! Yes, I know, it's been awhile........again!

Things were a little crazy here for awhile. School finishing, teacher appreciation cards & gifts, dance recitals, exams..........you get the idea. Of course, as usual I forgot to take photos of everything, so I can't share them with you.

However, I do have this one to share! I just added a new item to my etsy shop, and I'm thrilled, because it's been ages since I was able to list a new item!

This is a handmade paper bag photo album, with a wedding theme. I came across these gorgeous pink and black patterned papers and fell in love with them. The album is approx 5x5 inches and the last page has a little pocket for you to put extra photos, name tags, anything you like.

If you pop over to my etsy shop (link on the right!) you can view a couple more photos.

Well gotta run, getting ready for company tomorrow. Guess that means no crafting for me for a few days.........again!

Take care,

Invitations Made!!!

My sister in law asked me to make the invitations for my nephews baptism, and I was so excited, until it came down to actually making them and my mind went blank!!

So I started to think of my SIL and what she likes and COLOUR came to mind. She loves colourful things. So then I decided on a cross for the religious aspect of the ceremony, then thought about layering a few crosses on top of each other. Well it's not exactly what I pictured in my mind, but it may be even better! The result looks like a stained glass cross!!! I thought it was neat.

Now the insecure part of me has to show them to my SIL!! Hope she loves them as much I loved making them!

Take care till next time,

I've been absent again!

Well things are still crazy around here, and I haven't had a chance to pop in and visit, let alone any time to craft and make cards! The dance recital is over, the company has come and gone, and now all the summer activities are starting up! Where does all the time go? Not that I'm complaining, because I know in a few years they are not gonna want me to be taking them everyone or involved in so many activities, so I'm taking it all in now while I can!

As you can see, I did have a chance to make a few new cards, and I'm making triplets these days as I now have 3 places to send my cards to!! Like I wasn't busy enough! LOL!! Ok, not complaining about that either!

Take care, smell the flowers and enjoy the kids. At least that's what I'm trying to do!

Custom order of Mini Thank You cards

Well it's been pretty busy around here this weekend! I've been running around for days, and there doesn't seem to be an end in site .... till about JUNE!! LOL!!!

Anyway, in my SPARE time (ha!) this weekend, I was working on these little mini Thank You cards for a wonderful friend - Emily. She's been working on rasing funds for Erase MS and got together with another etsy seller, bovinebubbles, to package up some wonderful handmade creams, lotions and soaps. She saw some of my little mini Thank You cards and decided to order some for the package! I was so thrilled, and honoured. I missed out on the fundraising this time around, but asked if I could participate on the next one. Emily said she was gonna try again in December, so I'm gonna try and make up a batch of cards for her to sell to raise funds. I should probably get working on them now, what with how long it takes me to get cards done around here!

Here's a couple pictures of the cards I made for her. If you are ever interested in a custom order for any occassion, please contact me. I love working on custom orders!

Take care,

A New Mother's day Card

Here's a new one I listed in my shop the other day. It's been very busy here lately with all the kids activities and such, haven't had much chance to blog! By the way, if you're interested, I'm also Twittering these days! You can go to www.twitter.com and follow me there.... harvestmoon123.

Thanks again for peeking in and saying hello!

Have a great weekend,
