Video Games Anyone???

Good mornin' peeps!

I know it's been awhile, bad me. I just haven't been in the mood for creating, I think I lost my mojo but I needed a card for my son-in-law's birthday...so off I went to my craft room. I had seen this image over at Mo Manning's Digital Stamps awhile back & it reminded me of Steve when he plays his video games sometimes, so I just had to get it for his card. It was a success, he loved it & I loved how this card turned out.

Have a great day & thanks for stopping by.



Happy stampin!

Maui Vacation Slide Show


I know some of you don't do Facebook, so I put together a slide show for you with some of the pictures I posted on Facebook of the wedding, Luau, cocktail party & some of the sites we visited on Maui. I hope you enjoy them. If you want to see more pictures & videos then become my friend on Facebook. Thanks. I still have not done any crafting so I hope to get back into it soon, I have no mojo right now.



Thanks for stopping by today & I hope you have a fabulous day!

Rejected Wedding Invitations - Part 5

Are you sick of wedding invitations yet? Well this is the last of them, I'm so glad you made it to the end...I hope you enjoyed them. Leave me a comment & let me know what you think, I'd love to hear from you.

Well today was the last day of our vacation...so sad :o( Every good thing must come to an end! I think I'll need a few days to rest & get back to our regular Eastern time zone. Thanks for stopping by & have a great day!













Does this one look familiar? I made a Christmas card first (posted it 2 weeks ago) to see how I would like this design (made that Christmas card in January I think), then went ahead & made the wedding invitation. It was a bit bulky but it came out beautiful.






Happy stamping peeps!

The Wedding Invitation


Good mornin’ Peeps!

This is a scheduled post that I wrote & set up before I left home, so the wedding was yesterday & now I can share pictures of the invitations & thank you cards I made for Kim & Jack. Then I will be sharing all the other sample invitations that got rejected. I made quite a few samples for them to pick from & told them that if they like something on one card & something from another then we could incorporate those elements into their invitations & make it work & that’s exactly what they did & they came out beautiful if I do say so myself!!! I totally enjoyed making these for them.

I got my inspiration for this card design from my good friend Corinne (thanks so much Corinne for always inspiring me) with this card & this card .

Here they are…I hope you like them.
