You are a Treat

How about this digital stamp from

QKR Stampede, 

isn't it adorable?

Digi Autumn Friends

Here is my creation using the digital stamp colored in Photoshop,

 Digi Autumn Friends 

You are a TREAT was a computer generated sentiment.

I even busted out my Cricut for this one using Simply Charmed

for the pumpkin.

Cooper

and Penguin friends

I made it this way so they have lots of options when playing the game with him.

All the pieces fit nicely into a salvaged Mayo container.

I used wooden spoons to hopefully make it easier to turn the pieces remember he is 2.

And the book I printed off and created for him.  It is so darn cute, I continue to amaze myself at times.

This gift took me literally days to create.  A little here and there and lots of love and prayers.  Lots of prayers for patience.   I need to count how many google eyes I used they were about to drive me CRAZY.

That is another reason I love creating my own gifts instead of going out into the crazy world of retail and pick out a meaningless toy that in two days will probably be lost or broken and not remembered.

It is giving from the heart that makes this season beautifully special for me.

From my Pinterest Board Signs and Sayings

Here is the link were I found the idea on the book

I made it my own and personalized it for Cooper.

Hope you are inspired to go get creative on some of your gifts this year.

25 days of CHRISTmas day one you can find on my FACEBOOK post for today

Happy Stamp Day.  God Bless.

Birthday Fun with Napkins

For my creation today I used napkins in place of Decorative Paper.  For the dotted I crumpled it up and ran it through the Xyron then mounted it on my black base.  

For the stripe napkin, I applied the cracked glass technique.

The cute little cake image came off of Cricut Simply Charmed. 

 I punched out the sprinkles from the extra stripe napkin.

Rainbows Baby!

Oh, how wonderful were the Glam Bands!  Poison was one of my faves. Now the resurgence and comeback of Bret Michaels after Celebrity Apprentice you probably know the Lead vocalist. He is one of the best lyric writers around not to mention he is HOT!

Yes, I am a fan of all types of  music I love all different Genres and really can't pick a favorite one.  Depends on my mood what playlist I have going in the background.

Why the heck am I talking about this you ask.  Well Poison's song lyrics inspired today's creation...

I think it is a wonderful card of encouragement don't you?

Bret Michaels now, still as hot as EVER and I so want his Hat!

HERE IS THE CRY TOUGH VIDEO THE INSPIRATION FOR TODAYS CARD, ENJOY!
