Get Well Gift and Card

One of the guys in my office has a 13 year old daughter that has been sick for over 3 months. They first thought it was mono, but now the doctor is saying it is some kind of infection due to dental work she had done. She now has to be on IV medication for the next 6 weeks and they may have to do a heart valve replacement due to damage to her heart. I feel so bad for the family. Here is the card I made her.. I hope she likes it!

Altered Gift Bag

My mom called and asked if I could do something to the gift bag that she got for a wedding shower. She couldn't find one that had a wedding theme... the bag needed to be extra large because she got them bath towels and kitchen towels. Once I saw the bag, I knew what I wanted to do.....I had purchased the wedding magnolia's for my friend's wedding and knew the stamp would be the perfect addition to the gift bag!
I can't believe how well the paper matched the bag and bow...the pink paper is from Gina K and the aqua paper
is from scrap paper I had on hand. I put crystal stickles on her dress and added a flower stamp with aqua ink to make the paper match the gift bag. You can't tell from the picture, but I used glossy accents to make her shoes look patent leather. I then added a three roses and a few little pearls for the finishing touch.

Thank you Gift.

THANKS PATTY!!

Just a small Thank You Gift for the Boy Scout merit badge counselor who is helping my son and a couple of others boys past the Swimming Merit badge. These counselors donate their time and expertise in helping boys pass the requirements for different merit badges.




I downloaded this box file from someones website....it was a free scut file, I love how it cut out, it was so easy. Of course, I forgot to write down who I got the file from, so if there is anyone out there that knows whose file this is, I would love to know and thank them personally!! THANKS JOANNE FOR THE REMINDER..I FOUND THE BOX AT http://mycricutscrapbooking.com/2010/05/19/square-box-with-fancy-window/. I love this site, Beth is amazingly talented and shares such great files!











Tulle Tilda is colored with copic markers, her dress is R83, R85, her under skirt and belt are Martha Stewart fine glitter and her booties are C5. The paper is paper that I had in my stock...the bottom of the box is glitter paper, the pictures don't do it justice! Thanks for stopping by. Hugs Teresa.

Mother's Day Cards
















Well it took me forever to get these cards done, but I had them ready around midnight Saturday night..yikes Mother's day was only a few hours away. We spent a special day at my mom's house with my grandmother who is 93 years old, both my sisters and their family and my son. It was a beautiful day.
Here is the card for my grandmother.











Here is the card my sister and I made for my mom. My sister who has never used a copic marker before colored Tilda! She did a great job. I have been watching videos and taking notes on how to do it and she just asked for a few tips and picked up the pen and did her first Tilda! Great job Danna!

The next two cards are cards I did for my sisters.



Thanks for dropping by! Please let me know what you think.

Wedding Gift


I wanted to share this special gift I made for my friend's wedding last weekend. She and I are both in the Magnolia-licious yahoo group. I was inspired by the Fairytale Edition of the Magnolia magazine. My friend's wedding was black,white and red. She was so surprised, she picked it up off the gift table and came over to me to tell me how much she loved it!! I used my cricut to cut the 3 hearts, the tag, and the top and bottom rounds. I adhered everything with Scor tape. I was one of the lucky ones to get the bride and groom stamp before Diane sold out!! So thank you Diane. I also purchased the magnolia flowers from Diane, they are amazing. I hope you enjoy.

FIRST MAGNOLIA CARD!!


Okay so I finally finished my March Mingle card. I was having a terrible time deciding just what to do. So Lillian I hope you like it. Shabby Tilda is sitting on a cupcake and is surrounded by a cute saying that I got from Regina Easter at the Cutting Cafe (I love her cut files and sayings!!). Since I only have 16 copics right now, I am limited on coloring. I will be starting my Suzanne Dean Copic Color classes this week..I am so excited!! Please let me know what you think of my first attempt at my newest love, Magnolia Stamps!!

Tuesday Girls Night Wine Club - Birthday Card

Tonight is Tuesday Girls Night Wine Club...I get together with 3 of my friends and we do dinner and wine tasting...okay so we really do wine drinking, but it sounds better to say wine tasting. We always have a good time, sometimes we play games, but mostly just hang out and talk. Tonight is Sheryl's Birthday, so we are celebrating...maybe an extra bottle of wine tonight! This is a card that I made for her. I used by cricut to cut out the scalloped oval on the front and the scalloped frame on the inside. The girl is from Charmed Cards.com.
