Absolute Humiliation...



Notice the tip of her tongue peeking out of her mouth? She would lick and lick and lick her collar, trying to groom. Poor, poor Lily - this was taken a few days before the Dreaded Collar was removed for good.


Aaaaaahhhhhhh.............sweet freedom....

Floral Friend



Using a couple of b-day gifties from Heidi.........man, I just LOVE this set and these Nestabilities. A double-winner!!


Random-stamped the background and then loads and loads of coloring, shading and glitterfying on the main bloom (really want to get the die cut for this set...I'm getting lazy about "fussy cutting"). Once again the Kraft CS comes out soooo icky on the photo but it looks lovely on the card.

Weird Weather



Hail in JUNE? Wow - weird but fun!! When it hailed last month Creepella grabbed the camera, ran outside and started snapping. Such a geek!

Orange Thanks


I've learned a few things during my blogging break. So I'll try to keep that in mind from here on out!

Here's a card submission that was REJECTED a few months ago (took a while to lick my wounds....sigh.....). Kind of forgot about it but during a fit of tidying, I found it!!

Easy card.....crank a panel of colored CS through the Cuttlebug, stamp the sentiment on a scrap piece of CS, wrap a bit o' ribbon around, foam-mount the sentiment panel on the already-adhered Cuttlebug embossed panel and Ta-Dahhhhh......you're done!
