I'm so cool I sweat Glitter

Happy day all!

I am so excited that Crafty Card Gallery's Design Team is back and I am here to share my take on this month's challenge. I have to say that it is good to be back. This month the challenge was if you have nail polish on your fingers or toes - do a card with that color in it... If you don't have any on now - use Blue, Pink (my current color) or something with sparkles in it..... on your card... Well, since I don't have nail polish on I went with option B but used Blue, Pink and Sparkles! I recently attended the Scrapbook Expo in Somerset, NJ and purchased my supplies just for this project. Here is my card:

Let me tell you that this was so easy! Krazy Kreations was at the Expo showing how to make your own glitter paper and how to color on it. Well I was a chicken and bought the glitter paper and the Outline Stickers (these are by Elizabeth Designs). I mounted the outline stickers on the white glitter paper, got out my markers and went to down. I like my little blue bird of happiness. As soon as I took this picture, I filled out the card for the parents of my son's girlfriend. They are so kind to our son, I wanted them to know we appreciate it. 

Thanks to Jenn at Crafty Card Gallery, Krazy Kreations and Elizabeth Designs for the inspiration and tools to make this card. Until next time.....

Scrapbook Expo 2014: Somerset, NJ ~ Sparkle and Sprinkle

Happy day all!

I recently was able to attend the Scrapbook Expo in Somerset, NJ last week and registered for classes/lectures as a birthday present to myself. I even stayed overnight!!!!  I took a Class with Sparkle and Sprinkle and had an AMAZING time. Here is the page I got done in the class:

Now I have to say that I did make one faux pas. I decided to use a Versamark reinker on the tag to make a pattern. EPIC FAIL! I still love it anyway. Learning how easy it is to emboss your own chipboard is a great thing. Here are some closeups of the embossed elements and the quote I love:

I can see that I will be ordering more of their embossing powders and glitters for sure (and you all know how much I hate glitter). I will be sharing pics of another class and Make and Take I made in the same weekend. Until next time....

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas....

Greetings all!

Now that I have my markers and Exclusive Ink Stamp pads organized, I could start creating. I decided to make a Christmas card to start out with. Here it is....

The supplies I used are:

Ruby 12" x 12" cardstock (X5927)

White Daisy 12" x 12" cardstock (1385)

3D Foam tape (Z1151)

Art Philosophy Cricut Collection (Z1686)

Exclusive Inks Stamp Pads: Hollyhock (Z2128), Ruby (Z2170) and New England Ivy (Z2135)

The ornaments and tag are all cut from the Art Philosophy Cricut Collection. I like how this is pretty clean and simple. I can see mass producing this pretty easily. Thank you for stopping by. I hope you come back this week for another card I made.

Want to Get Organized?

Greetings all!

I sure did. I decided that my stamp pads and markers needed a new home. So I ordered the Exclusive Inks Organizer (Z4131) with my Hostess Rewards credit (I got it for 50% off. Let me tell you how). I just love how it made it everything organized and can hold 60 stamp pads.  Here is what it looks like.

I know I will be adding to this for sure.... I feel accomplished now that I can find my items more easily and can get busy creating. There will be more to come.

Where I've been Hiding :)

Since my birthday is in 2 days, I decided to do a giveaway this month. On my website (suenj.ctmh.com), I have an Online Party going.
