So, as I mentioned at the end of my previous post, I am seriously thinking that I should change the name of my blog. It is definitely NOT a Corner of enchantment, other than the enchantment being extremely hidden who knows where. LOL!
So, I have decided that I want to reward you readers that still come by faithfully by asking you to name my blog and rewarding you for it.
So what I would like for you to do is make a comment and give me a name you think I should use and also let me know what you would like as a reward, i.e. flowers, embellishments, stamps, etc. Please don't announce this, as this is for YOU my faithful ones. And the name that I like the most will win something special.
Hope you participate Ann, Vicki, Velta, Tonje, and the other ones of you that come by but don't leave a comment!! Looking forward to seeing you suggestions!!

CAN YOU BELIEVE IT? I MADE SOMETHING!
Yes, I know I've not spent much time in my craft room at all this month. The weather has been too great!! Have to enjoy the sun and my flowers, need to put some more in yet.
Anyway, I was asked to make THANK YOU cards for the helpers at our Mom's group at church. Every Fri. morning we get together and there are a group of ladies who take care of our pre-schoolers for us. We then have different activities. Yesterday we filled some pots with flowers for our helpers, so I decided to make the flower pot card for them.

I used SU Kraft as the flower put. Sent it through the cuttlebug with one of the SU texture plates and sponged SU craft choc. chip over it and the scalloped edge. The flowers are SU TIME WELL SPENT colored with SU markers. I just have a few colors in makers, but since I was making 8 cards I wanted to color with markers to make it faster. I also wanted the card to be able to stand up, so I doubled the size of the interior piece and scored it in half to help it stand. So there you have my creation for the month.
Thank you so much for coming by.
I'm actually thinking of changing the name of my blog to something more suitable.
Will talk about that later!
Have a great weekend!

FRAMED TILDA
I LOVE making frames. This one is a gift to a special friend who has been a great inspiration to me lately and has helped me get out of my lack of stamping and crafting mojo.
The details are:
For the frame I used the SU TEA PARTY DP. The edges of the frame are sponged with SU Craft Choc. Chip ink. The flourish is also sponged with the same ink.
The image which is a Magnolia image of Tilda with garland, was stamped with VersaFine Smokey Gray and colored with Prisma color pencils and baby oil.
The background fence is a stamp which I found at a local discount store and think it suite perfectly with Tilda. Tilda's dress is paper pieced with the same DP. The flower centers are liquid pearl gold.
Thank you for dropping by! Hope you have a great Sunday!

ROLODEX SCRIPTURE SWAP CARD NO. 3

Thank you so much for your encouraging comments on my previous rolodex cards. I really appreciate them. So, here is my third card (I'm making 4 different ones). It is very simple. I thought the papers and patterns did not need too much help.
Now I have to come up with No. 4. I have absolutely nothing going for this one yet!
Enjoy your day!!

POST NO. 2 CAN YOU BELIEVE IT??
Can you believe me posting twice in one day? I've got you used to posting once a week or so, but today is the exception. Can't promise that I will be able to do this often!! I AM THE SLOWEST CARDMAKER EVER IMO!!! I know Ann thinks she holds this title, but I disagree with her, as she posts more often then I do. LOL!
I'm not exactly sure what to think of this rolodex card. I borrowed this set from a friend, but after I stamped it, I just was not sure what to do with it. So here it is, and I would love to hear your opinion.

ROLODEX SCRIPTURE SWAP 2

I joined another Rolodex Scripture swap and this is one of my cards. I love all the different varieties that the ladies come up with and the different verses. So many great verses.
The details:
Verse stamp CHF
DP is SU Delicate dots, textured with one of the SU texture plates
Square Nestabilities in Brocade Blue
The crochet flower is hand made by myself with a little ribbon.
Thank you for your great comments. Love reading them. They totally make my day!!!
