Magical...Sweet pea image

I worked on this card all weekend. I used gold detail embossing powder to outline the image. I then used 4 different colours to create the magical jewel toned hummingbird. I used the liquid pearls for the flowers around the bird. I am pleased with the results and I hope you are too... I used some moss for edging on the card to give it an organic feel . Thank you for stopping and know your comments are appreciated.

Christmas wreath and my Halloween arrangements...

a couple of non scrap related creativity ideas....I made these bootiful bouquets for my coworker, son's teacher and myself this year. These were just a blast to make. The Christmas wreath I did just the other morning..I think it still needs some tweaking but this is it thus far. I put some glittered spiders in it for fun. Here is a German tale about the spider at Christmas and how that is where the tinsel came from....enjoy.

Christmas Sweet pea style...

Well it is that time when we start to make those beautiful holiday cards. This is the first of the season for me. I enjoyed creating this card using my new snow writer around the edges for some texture and creating a cute Christmas ball. I have decided I will try and use up my Christmas stash this year and not buy anything new...hmm I wonder how long I can hold out....

Thanks for stopping by,

Thank you so much..Sweet pea image

Yes it has a been a long time since I have been here. Those of you still following I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I apologise for the absence. Life just got in the way. I believe we all have times when we need understanding and time to regroup. This was it for me. I am on the mend and creating cards and scrapbooking is part of that process for me. I hope you come back and see my site and I can not wait get out there in blog land and view all the wonderful creations you ladies have been making. I have much catching up to do.

Rainy day button bouquet..

A little cute something to cheer you all up... it has been raining cats and dogs here so I made this bouquet for a friend to cheer her up. I love the rain but having spoken to many people lately it seems they don't share this same love... I used buttons an beads and garden wire to create these cuties.

Hope you like them and feel some inspiration to make a bouquet for yourself or a friend. Remember these are allergic free and hospital friendly!

Sweet pea ..sweet as ever..

a sweet card for a sweet student worker. Using you guessed it a sweet pea stamp...just can't get enough of them :)

I had a lot of fun making this one as I have only known the girl for two weeks. She is kind, sweet, smart and beautiful. I have taken a cue from the simple yet pretty clothes she wore as to what colours to use for the card. I am sure she will go far.

fairly odd parents birthday swag..

My son chose Fairly Odd Parents as his theme for his Birthday this year. Here in Canada we had not birthday items with this cartoon so I had to pull out my crafty ideas and came up with this.

I did a candy wrapper for smarties, cake toppers or in this case worms and dirt toppers, invitations, thank you notes, and tshirts.

They were a hit and my son was so pleased. We were at a Chuck E Cheese so having all the kids in the same colour shirt helped allot.

Dragonfly...dragonfly...

I have been going through some reno's at my house leaving me without access to my scrap studio..but having said that I have managed to create a few cards. This one was for my coworker. I used a sweet pea image for this one..hope you like it. I used an assortment of pastels..not my usual colour palette.

Patchwork Baby Shower card...

A coworker asked for a baby shower card for her sister. This is my creation. I used flocking on the cute little fellas and googly eyes of course. Copics to colour and buttons and ribbons to give it that patchwork quilt feel...hope you find some inspirations :) hugs, T

Under the sea a happy 6th Birthday...

a cute card for a cute girls 6th Birthday. My son and this little girl have been friends since they first met in daycare. They have since moved to another daycare together and now go to the same kindergarten. They will also start Grade one together too...any how I do hope you like it.

Hello Spring...almost...

This is my tribute to spring.... We really don't look like we have spring here in Alberta Canada but it will come... I used utee on the image and then placed in the freezer and cracked it for texture...then I added some clear glass beads and pearls and bling galore...I do hope you like my latest creation. Perhaps for some you it is already spring and you are seeing green :) I am entering this card at In a sweet pea dream...just click on the link on the left... hugs, T

Under sea beauty...Sweet pea image ching chou kuik's radiant Butterfly

I recently acquired this stamp from Sweet Pea and I couldn't wait to make a card. I spent some time swirling fiber on top of flocked paper. Then I wanted to create a sort of bottom of the sea treasure in the corner. Notice the pearl.... I love how this came together and I do hope you enjoy this card too.

Thank you for stopping by and take care...maybe go over to sweet pea and enter the contest just click on the badge on the right of my blog and maybe do some shopping too... :)

seeing double...

Yep you are double the fun... I had a few copies of this image I printed from Kenny K designs and while I was sitting on the couch nursing my cold I coloured them. Then when I felt like I needed to get up so I didn't actually start turning into the couch I made these cards. Still sick but I needed to do something ....I thought these bright and cheery Birthday cards might help me feel better. I hope you like them and may they bring a smile to the special ladies I made them for... ;)
