Got Me A Cricut Expressions

HERE ALL ABOUT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Today my wonderful and I do mean wonderful, you guys my husband is just so good to me. Not just today but everyday, he is always telling me how special I am and always tells me he loves me, not just everyonce in a while all the time. I do believe that I am the luckiest woman in love. honey if you do read this I love you, you are my everything..mushmush OK here is the new news, I got me a CRICUT EXPRESSIONS TODAY, can you believe it!? Got 2 cartridges with it and bought 2, I know, what a lucky crafter, now I just got to figgure this thing out..kinda feels like I'll be cheating in papercrafting,but I know from what I've seen it just has so many possibilities to add to my papercrafting and hopefully will help me out, now my next big expense will be for me some really good markers, a few other much needed things. Hey, I work hard to..Ok so Im off to blog hop a while, off my peeps for the night, later my friends.God Bless

Happiness and buttons







Seems like buttons just make this card more cheerful, what do you think? on this card and its hard to see I used my scorepal at the bottom,I have played with it constantly since I got it, I'm working on the kids something for school, they have to have a personalized valentine box and the coolest one wins a small prize, so I'm experimenting, maybe I will have it done later this week for ya. But on to the card,its pretty simple, I layered my main image which is inkadinkado,using sage green and not sure about the orangeypink color, but its pretty, on the sentiment I used my glitter pen, and around the sentiment, I used twine to go through each hole which I made with my martha stewart hole punch and my scallop scissors, the buttons are from Micheals and were in my stash, I could not imagine any paper crafter without a button stash, anywho, the paper is from basic occasssions and colorbox, and the ribbon is from walmart as well..i hope you like the card and oh I can't believe I forgot it won't be long and I'll be gettin me some really good markers and a cricut expressions I just can't hardly wait..Thanks for stoppin by and God Bless

Well I finally got one to show ya sorry it took me so long, I so wanted to enter a couple of challenges and chickened out. But anyways, I did colors of pink,red,chocolate chip for one and the other was for some kind of stitching so I did faux stitching around the card base. This cardI used my alphabets small and large mixed it up and this is what I came up with I so hope you like it..God Bless and thanks for stopping by

love u dearly
















Im truley not certain what I think about this card, all I can think about is getting my scorpal..Gosh, I wish it would come on, impatient,yes, and excited..I have looked all around and have lots of plans for when I get the scorpal. Anyway I was messing with this card and the colors and the card just didn't turn out as I had planned. The flowers on the card are from Hampton Art, and I used baby oil to watercolor them and then I added some crystal glitter to add some bling to them. The cutout flower is just from pattern paper from colorbox and layerd and sponged also has alittle bling of glitter and a pink brad for the center, the sentiment is Anna Griffin and it is punched out with word window punch and also layered and poppedup on dimensions. I used my martha stewart border punch and layered it with bright white added some silver cording and tied a pink ribbon to try and tie the colors together. I hope you like it, as i will be working on another card today, and hopefully my mojo will kick in. I hope you all had a wonderful weekend and as always, God Bless..

I loved when you knew your neighbors, and you could trust and you could leave your windows and your doors unlocked, oh me how did I get into this conversation, I think the the shock of someone who doesn't know me gave me hope, maybe our future has hope, you touched me and opened a place in my heart that I missed very much, thank you for your kindness. Go show some love offer to open that door and open your window and breathe..On another note, my daughter is home from school this week, if you didn't know my daughter 10 was born with spina bifida, she uses a power chair at all times, well, her chair ramp that carries her power chair caught fire totally destroyed, not did the basement flood-no insurance,wheelchair ramp burn up-no money, man these things are expensive $1,599+tax, and thats suppose to be a bargain,hum-, Hannah has 4 other siblings, and my husband is our only breadwinner, having a child with disabilities(and abilities) , can really reach outside the wallet, so what Im gettin at is Say a Little Prayer for us,Im certain things will work out..Thank you fellow stampin friends for visiting my blog,show you some pics later..God Bless

The birthday card I made for my daughter who is 10 today, So Happy Birthday my angel I love you so much and Im very proud of you, you are such an achiever and sassy(hehe). I hope you got everything you wanted and some, I think shes got more money than her mom, (hey I want a scorpal) ha. The card which has no stamping is k and company rubons and stickers the paper is Best occassions the ribbon I picked up at walmart, I just really liked how it turned out. Now the thankyou card is paper left over from xmas, how nice that valentines comes after xmas, so you can get rid of some of that paper, now I used a stencil that I have had forever for the thank you layer andcut it out paper is martha stewart, and the stamp thank you and the butterfly is from art impressions I used my glitter pen to highlight the butterfly. I hope you like these, I feel pleased with the cards, although the pics are not so good, I just couldn't get it right. Well and as for the flood in our basement, we don't have flood insurance, but we do know that the drain which is supposed to keep that from happening was clogged so just maybe they will, you know it just makes you wonder what in the crap you pay all that money for and then they tell you this.. Work work work..
