no picture today, although I was crafty... I made each of my girls a fun little dress. They love them and put them on as soon as I finished them. I LOVE having little girls! Speaking of love, Lizzie Anne is giving away some LOVE....stamp-related love that is. Check out the LAD blog for the details.

a little valentine's day decoration

I saw something similar to this in a magazine, but I don't remember which magazine! They had a happy birthday banner with ice cream cones (I can see one with cupcakes in my future), a valentine's banner and one other one and I combined all the ideas into this one. I've made similar thing sin the past, but on a smaller scale. I used "So Much Love" from LAD for the majority of the images. I used a couple from Jolie Fleurs and L'Amour to round it out. I think my favotie letter is the O withthe vase of flowers. They were a little on the tough side to cut out and keep them attached to the vase. I also love those little love birds, I don't particularly like birds, but I love these two little ones. I have another one that I'm working on today... stay tuned!

Tea Time

So this card started out following a sketch, but well the only thing that resembles that sketch is the ribbons, so I guess you could say I was inspired by the other card! This image is from LAD Tea Time, a new release. I added the black puffy flower to the tea cup for some dimension. I really lke the contrast of the black and white with just one color. I inked all the edges for a shabby chic feel....

a little vantine....or not

A possible card for the hubby for valentine's day, maybe too girly... a possible just because card for your BFF from high school who recently reminded you (and every other person who reads her blog) of several fun things from high school. My BFF and I were once accused of stealing the inflatable ice cream cone from atop the local gas station....umm, we were out of the country when it was stolen (literally on a plane acroos the Atlantic Ocean!) Fun Memories!

This is from LAD's Tutti Fruity and I love the pear! I love the reverse flower. It also uses a sketch challenge, #56 - so it was a while ago but - better late then never! I also used some yummy new paper from My Mind's Eye... I'm getting so good at not hoarding my paper anymore! Those dots in the right upper corner, are Coffee Shimmerz, i used my paper piercing template and filled in the largest holes with shimmerz...it does run so don't drag it!

This is the first card I made with LAD Tutti Ftruiy set and I love it. The cherries all have red shimmerz on them. Have I told you what a great set this is.... the possibilities are endless with it and that makes me like it even more. Great sentiments and great images. I still am not crafting too much, trying to rest my hand. I'm have a rather large pile and long list of things to make, so I'm hoping by resting it lots, it will heal quick and i'll be back to crafting soon!

Those are clouds in lower right corner and above the plane on the image panel. I love the sentiment with this plane....so perfect for Valentine's day that is just around the corner. This is another great image from LAD Things That Go. Have you checked out the Lizzie Anne Design blog? they post all sorts of fun stuff on there!
