MIA, BUT WITH A PROJECT

Hi there,
I know I have wanted to post something, but we got a surprise visit this week. My SIL came to visit us for the week from Mexico, so of course I could not spend my time on here. My SIL enjoys crafting just as much as myself, so we did work on some projects for her which I do want to show you.

We are both quite happy with the result. Would love to craft with her more often!!

Have a blessed weekend!!

ROLODEX SCRIPTURE SWAP - PART 1

So I have not been able to work on something everyday. But as I said, every day is a new day to start fresh.
This project is for a Rolodex Scripture swap I am in on SCS.
The image is a Thomas Kinkade image from CHF, which I received from a stamping friend through a swap. I absolutely LOVE his painting. It is the first time I used this image as I am a bit intimidated. I colored it using chalks, blender pen and aquapainter. The verse I printed off the computer.
I have another 3 different ones to make. I am looking forward to receive 24 different ones!!

Thank you for coming by!!

You can click on the image to see it better!

WISHING YOU A HAPPY AND BLESSED 2009

I want to wish you all a great year. Filled with joy, peace, hope, love and lots of creative mojo!! I know, I know it is Jan. 2nd already. I should have done this yesterday, but I didn't get to it. But I did do this:

I do not really like to make New Year's resolutions as I find that I get discouraged if I don't keep them, but I am actually making some everyday resolutions. In my opinion everyday is a good day to start something or keep something going. So something I am trying to do is to create and work on a project everyday Mon-Fri. So this is my first project. My dd Melanie wanted to make a card for an aunt who is in the hospital, and she picked THE WILD ROSE SU set, which needs the stampamagig. Since I have not used it very much either, we both practiced with it. I have also not used stickles and liquid pearls, so I incorporated these too. I probably will not do it the same way again, but I am satisfied with my first try. The colors I used are: Old Olive as base card; stamped the image with Rose Red on Apricot Appeal. I wanted to use Apricot Appeal with Regal Rose, but my Regal Rose is MISSING. This is not a good thing as it is my favorite pink color. I have looked high and low for it. I must say that my craft space has been moved around several times during the year, so it probably went missing because of this. I must say that now I have my OWN CRAFT ROOM upstairs and I am happy with it. I believe my mojo has come back. I am looking forward to creating again.

Now I have to see what I am going to work on today! Hope to hear from you. Love to read your comments.
