GET WELL SOON...

Good morning everyone. I am making this a short one as I have an appointment this morning and need to get going soon.

I want to share with you this little get well soon card that I made. I ran across Amy R's card like this last week and I just had to case it. It was super fun to make and didn't take anytime at all. I hope you like it. Have a great weekend everyone. Talk at you later, Lisa G

See I really did say short....lol.

WORKING ON TECHNIQUES...

Hi guys. Hope you are all having a great week. Tomorrow is my day off, so I am getting there. lol... Tomorrow is also the midnight release of New Moon on DVD. Yes, I am team Edward! Can you believe that I am probably the only Twilighter that did not see this in the theater? So, as you can imagine I am pretty excited.

Ok, enough about that. Lets get on with the card. I am not sure if I mentioned it, but I am taking some on-line Copic classes that Suzanne Dean is offering. The reason I bring it up now it is that one of the topics is how to make things have more dimension when coloring with black. I am very proud to say that is why I colored this cutie's hat black. I am very very please with how it turned out. I don't think a week ago I would have colored it with as much depth put into it. Anyway that leads me to this adorable stamp that I used for my card. She is called the Mad Hatter and she can be purchased from Spesch stamps. These are new digi stamps and I think you are going to love them. I of course used some of my new paper pads that I have. Sooooo addicted! Well, I better start getting kiddies ready for school. Have a great day everyone. Hugs, Lisa G

THANK YOU...

Good morning guys. I am going to make this a quick one as I have to work today and I am running just a little behind this morning. Sorry I didn't get a card out yesterday, but I came home from work on Monday sick and I stayed home yesterday because of it. I just hate having stomach problems! I can handle a cold and work but not the other......

Ok, enough of that. Let me wish you all a Happy St. Patrick's Day. Hope you have your green on.

Today's card is for the Saturday Sketch Challenge over at CA&F. I of course had to use some of my new papers from makingmemories along with WS-Savannah. I have to say that I am quite please with how this turned out. Go to get going. Have a great day. Lisa G

WEEKLY WEDNESDAY CHALLENGE...

Good morning guys. I hope that your Monday is off and running well. I have to share with everyone what a great evening I had on Friday. First off my baby brother(he is now 36) and his family came into town just for the day and surprised me at work. It was the best when I looked up and there were my two nieces and nephew. By the time I got home from work my whole family was in town and we all had a great time. We went to get Maddi's hair cut like her cousins and the guy thought that we were having a family reunion. Yes, we can get pretty loud when my are together. lol... The only thing that would have made it even better would have been if my sisters' three sons would have been there. They are now 21, 18 and 15 so they are a little busy doing their own things (especially on a Friday night). I love you all and I had such a great time.

Ok guys, I will get on with why you are here. My card for today is one that I made for the Weekly Wednesday Challenge St. Patrick's Day at All That Scraps. I used the wonderful Sparkle Thistleweed made by the exceedingly talented Amy Y. I just thought that she was the cutest little fairy to spread an Irish blessing. I actually looked up on google to find one, and I have to say that I am very happy with what I found.

So, I am sending this to all of you. Have a great start to your week. Be sure to check out the ATS blog and play along. Talk at you tomorrow, Lisa G

IT'S AMORE...

Hi guys. It's Friday ! I may work tomorrow, but I am so glad that this week is coming to an end. It has just been one of those busy weeks that you really wish would just end.

As you can see from the time of this post I am so running behind this morning so like my card it is going to be a quick one. I colored this sweetheart last week and somehow I lost my list of what colors I used. I finished her sand last night, so that is the only list I have for you. I have to tell you that the wonderful Cindy H. is the one that I got the idea for the sand and grass from. Thank you Cindy for letting me play with your idea.

Ok, I said quick. So this little sweetheart is out with her best friend watching the seagulls on the ocean. They're on vacation in Hawaii! Thank you my friend Amy for giving her to me. I don't use them very much as I am afraid I will mess them up and then I won't have them. lol...I know...

I used my Prime e-line flowers and pearls to make her flower look more tropical. You can not be in Hawaii without seeing some beautiful flowers. Well I have gone on long enough, I better get some kids out of bed. Have an awesome Friday everyone. I will talk at you tomorrow. Lisa G

WHAT'S COOKIN' ?...

Hi guys. I hope that everyone is having a good week so far. Not too much longer until the weekend...Yay! I work on Saturday, but before you know it I will be home and get to play...I so can not wait. It has been super busy this week and coloring with my Copics helps me relax. :D That and blog hopping. lol.... I have to share with you another card that I made with Dazzles from Hot Off The Press. This is a set called Kitchen Stickers and they come in a pack of three so that you can use them on a scrapbook page or in this case to make a quick card for someone.

I really love how this set is in the brown, and I am sure this will not be the only card that I make with this set. Perhaps some red accents with the brown?.....hmmmm! Something to think about.
Ok everyone have a great day, and I will talk at you tomorrow. Lisa G

IAN LADDIE...

Hi guys. I am going to make this one a quick one as I work at 8 this morning. I just want to quickly thank everyone for your sweet comments on my card yesterday. I really enjoy reading them, and it is so encouraging to me. You are all so awesome. Thank you.

Ok, today's card is another one that I made with a stamp that I have had for some time now. It is none other than Ian Laddie and I think he is sooo cute. I made him walking down the sidewalk as he is on his way to the park to compete in the pole tossing contest with his friends. They are having a big celebration and love to get together and compete with each other. I actually made this card to put in for the Wild Card Wednesday over at CA&F, but I didn't read it correctly and I missed the deadline. Oooops! Oh well, I still love it and I really had a great time coloring this little darling. I am sorry, but I just noticed that I did not edit my picture of my Copics(it is a terrible picture, and I have no idea how to take just this one off) that I used nor did I write them down to list for you. Well guys, have a great Wednesday and I will talk at you tomorrow. Lisa G
