A Beary Special Birthday

Well I guess Pat has been successful in luring me into the Sassy Cheryl world, after I see her amazing cards, I aways say I have to hop on over and buy some. Well last week and this week I finally took the plunge and bought some of her adorable images. I have so many December and January birthdays coming up and literally no more birthday cards I decided to take advantage of my day off and make a card using this adorable image from Sassy Cheryl called Sassy Cheryl and her Perfect Bear Gift which you can find HERE. I am making this for my Best Friends daughter Jessica's birthday who like my niece share a birthday on December 26th. I thought I would also use this months colors over at The Ribbon Girl which is White and Pink a perfect choice for girls.

So here is my very first Sassy Cheryl Card and Pat thanks for in inspiration, I even made a pocket for the gift card I will be giving her for her birthday.

Creature comforts LOTV #120

Another quick post from me today, this was done for my little nephew James who turned 6 two weeks ago. I made him this card which of couse couldn't be frilly so I kept it clean and simple. I had to remind myself no flowers. I find CAS cards so hard to do, I always want to add something. I got to see him on Saturday and his new baby brother Alex (yes ladies I'm a Great Aunt again) he is all of two weeks old. I thought it was so sweet that Mom and Dad came to our house which was sort of a surprise. They knew hubby couldn't come to them to visit the baby, so they brought the baby to him. And yes, tears are still in my eyes because I couldn't believe how thoughtful that was, they have know idea how much that touched my heart.

Anyway here is the card I did for James



My angle shot:



And here is the blanket I made for his little brother Alex who born the 28th of October. Now talk about a birthday present especially when James' Birthday is on the 27th of October.

Candy Bar Card - Fancy Folds-DT Post #108 For Mo's

Well, it still Pat's turn to be our hostess with the mostess, and this week she decided for us to do something a little different with our cards and try our hands at a fold or two. So I had to put on my thinking cap since I did an easel card last week, I didn't want to do another one this week and Viola!!!! the light bulb went off or is it on and I remembered these Candy Bar Cards. So here is my take on this weeks theme Fancy Folds.

I love making these Candy Bar Cards, especially when it comes to eating these "King" size chocolate bars inside. I've made a few of these already and have gotten Oooh's and Aaah's each and every time and they really are so easy to make. I found the directions on the Scor-Pal web site which you can find HERE.



Here is a picture of the Candy Bar Card Open:



The original card doesn't have the band, so I decided to add it along with this adorable image Little Elf Pipa which you can find HERE I think it adds so much more to the card.

Here is a picture of the Band:

I 'm Thankful For My Sister

Well, It's now Pat's turn to be the hostess with the mostess and she wants us to give thanks, So I decided to be thankful for my big sister, and thankful that she is still here with us as a breast cancer survior.

This image called "Step Sister" reminded me of my sister who loves playing pranks and doing stupid things especially the bunny ear part, she just can't help herself, and I must admit we laugh and laugh and laugh. So when I saw this image at Mo's it immedately reminded me of her and all the things she did to me when we were small. I have pictures of my sister putting bunny ears behind your head while taking pictures... you think I'm lying, you'll see...

So of course I had to use Step Sisters which you can find HERE

So I made this for my sister, and I am sending this to her along with a package of goodies just to let her know I am thinking of her



See I am not lying.. this is my son and his girlfriend and my wonderful sister in the back making bunny ears..


and this is a picture of my sister and I at my nephews wedding.. (Her son got married) I'm the pretty one...lol I have the short hair



and of course I had to leave you with my angle shot:

It's A Treasure Hunt - LOTV #118

A quick post from me today, I followed Bev's sketch over at Lili of the Valley. Once again, I've had this adorable image since it was first released and am first getting around to using him. This is for my friends son a little belated but, the thought is just the same. So I thought I would make it a little interesting since it is pirate themed after all. So his sister is hiding his gift cards around the house with clues and he will have to go on a treasure hunt in order to find his three i-tune gift cards.

Unfortunately, I will not be there to witness the hunt, but I am sure that I will hear all about it on Thursday when the hunt begins. So Good Luck Steven.
