Ok enough jabber how about we take a look at my final 3-D project...
This sentiment was just the perfect way to wrap this all up! I know everyone that entered probably had moments when this statement would have encouraged them to keep going. It is a lot of work making the 10 projects to enter & I want to applaud EVERYONE that sent in a submission! If you didn't make the team this time, keep trying! This is my 3rd time entering!! Anyway Thank You again for following our hop & I hope you come back often to see what other fun things the team has to share! Ok time to hop on over to visit Alanna !!!

Artisan Blog Hop Day 9

 
Well I am glad you decided to hop on over!
I have my favorite card to share with you today!
It all started with a sheet of DSP from the Epic Day pack. It just screamed nautical to me! Blue water, fish bubbles, shipwreck, am I reaching? How about a dirty fish tank? Eh, either way it worked! See.....
 
Uber Cute, right?! I added a few of the sticker embellies & omgosh adorable whale, tiny fish, & anchor die cut! Squeel!!!!! Hope you got it before it retired. Also used the stamp a majig to change the sentiment to say "fish" instead of wish! ;)
Ok now on to the inside...

Eeeek! You gotta love it! Well I hope you love it, cuz I love it!
Oh yeah used vellum behind the punched circles on the front & inside for some added interest.
Well that was fun...lets keep this party goin & head over to Alanna's! 
 
FYI: Tomorrow there will be CANDY!!! Also have another giveaway going on {here}.

Artisan Blog Hop Day 8

Welcome Back! Day 8 means we are very close to wrapping up our little parade...hope you have enjoyed it! We appreciate your taking the time to stop by & hopefully leave some nice comments on those projects that you love!
Well down to the final 3...I saved one of each type of project for the 3 day count down so here is my last scrapbook page!
 
This was #4 on Easter! I saw that adorable pineapple dress on line & couldn't resist! Anyway this page was made in MDS using the Epic Day downloads. I am an amateur MDS user but this page proves ANYONE can make cute stuff with MDS! The actual project I sent in was a tiny bit different as I printed it twice & popped up some of the elements. I love being able to create one & then print it as many times as I want!!!! Alright enough of my excitement...lets see what Alanna's up to!

Artisan Blog Hop Day 7

Did you see Jen's project?! She's so talented!!! Only 3 more projects to share after today, then the other 10 finalist will start their hop! Really excited about that too! Convention was so short and extra short for me since I had to leave early to make it back for my daughters dance recital....anyway my point was I didn't have a chance to see all of the projects well & I am glad they are being showcased on the hops! Ok on to my card for today...


I think this was the first card I created for the contest. The girls helped me with this one! I died each of the flowers individually with reinkers then #2 said "You should make them sparkly!". Oh how #2 loves her sparkles! So after thinking about it for a minute I thought, "Yes, Yes I Should!". We decided on using Dazzling Details & ended up painting it on most of the card! We all agreed it looked purdy!  Speaking of purdy...lets see what beautifulness Alanna has for us today!

Artisan Blog Hop Day 6

Day 6! I have been debating on what to share, then I realized I haven't shown you any of my 3-Ds! So with out further ado...
 

I made a little blanket & changing pad! My sewing skills are not great and compared to the magnificent hexagon quilt Jane shared this looks way simple, but I thought it was cute! I was kinda lovin that tag too! Used the pinwheel die from the last mini catalog! Q.T.?! Hope you have been having fun hopping along with us! Lets head over to visit Alanna!

Artisan Blog Hop Day 5


Welcome to day 5 of our Artisan Blog Hop! Hope you have been enjoying our little journey! Today I am sharing another card.

Now I love the grungy style & had went with that for most of my entries but the vintage look is really my favorite so I had to make at least one card that had that pretty shabby chic feel! I LOVE the doiles & mixing them with pearls & vanilla seam binding....swoon! Its funny because if you know me I am SO not a girly girl but I guess I get my fix when making these kind of cards. LOL!
Alright on to see what fun eye candy Alanna has for you...

Artisan Blog Hop Day 4

 Welcome back! Wasn't Jen scrapbook page pretty?!
Today I have a scrapbook page to share too!

My kids have never seen snow but on the way to the Salt Lake City Regionals there were some little patches on the side of the road & I didn't think it was enough for them to get excited about but I was so wrong! You would have thought they had just walked in to a winter wonderland! I loved creating this page! Its an 8x8 which is my favorite size! Cuz 12x12 just intimidates me...Lol!
Ok on to see Alannas awesome scrapbook page!

Artisan Blog Hop Day 3

Thanks for coming back today to take a peek at another one of my creations. Hope you were inspired by Jen's post! Isn't she FAB! Ok on to my card...  
I really tried to stretch myself with my entries & be a little more creative...yeah doesn't look like much right? But if you look at the balloons you might notice they look like the bomb from the Birthday Bombs Away set! I stamped them on the back of my DSP & cut them out to make the balloons! I cut the 30 from the Soho Subway DSP & I love that snarky sentiment too! Hard to read but it says "An occasion like this calls for a mediocre sheet cake from the grocery store". LOL!
Ok now go visit Alanna...hope to see you back tomorrow!
