Amuse Christmas Card

I made this card as a sample during A*MUSE *A* PALOOZA! I also had plans to put it on my blog as soon as I could, but as you can see that didnt happen until now, when I first saw this tree stamp, I wasnt a huge fan, looking through the baskets of new stamps I came across this one that says "Christmas waves a magic wand over the world, and behold, everything is softer and more beautiful" and it hit me...thats exactly what this little poor tree needs, so I made a slider card, slide the bare tree up,and there its transformed into a beautiful Christmas tree, who knows this may have to by my Christmas Card this year.

Fab Five Day 5

Well here it is, the end of a fabulous week of Fab Five projects!! Todays product was the Spellbinders Tree, I made a small forest on the front of my card, distressed the trees a little bit, and stamped over with this Unity Stamp, "Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where thiser is no path and leave a trail" I thought it was catchy with the trail in the middle of my card :) he he. Have a good weekend everyone thanks or checking out my blog!

Fab Five Day 4



Todays product was a sheet MME diecuts from the "ooh la la" collection. I matched them up with coordinating paper, "Shabby CHic" MME, and added some gemstones, colored green to match with copic markers. Very simple and very cute, I love how girly this paper is!!

The pictures are my senior photo session with my bestfriend in 2007. enjoy!

Fab 5 Day 3

Todays product are these rub-ons from October Afternoon, I only used two, but trust me all in the package are super cute as well. I used Graphic 45 patterned paper for the background from the "baby 2 bride" collection and rubbed the rub-on "frame" over this picture of my great grandmother to make a cute keychain.

Fab Five Day Two

Todays product was this "Time flies Stamp Set." I used Bo Bunny paper, chipboard girl (inked yellow to match), and jewels over the stamp to make it girly. I thought it would be a cute suprise party invitation for a girl. Hope you like it!!

Fab 5 Day 1

Hello!! Back to another fun week of "Fab 5" enteries!! I hope everyone is having a fun summer, I know a lot of people leave there scrapbooking/card making for the winter months but I hope many of you are still checking out our blogs for inspiration and ideas. Today we were using GCD Paper with flowers all over it, I cut out the flowers (this was the longest part of making the card, but still not that strenuous, especially since I only cut out 5), "thanks" was cut out using cuttlebug, (I dont know if you can tell in the picture but I layered a green thanks on top of a pink thanks), green grass cut out using the "icicle" punch by Martha Stewart, and the fence was simply cut strips of white paper. There you have it! a cute thanks card!! thanks for stopping by at my blog, dont forget! If you leave a comment at anytime this week on any of our blogs you get entered in for a drawing of free goodies!!

Island Girl

I found this paper at work and thought it had instant/easy potential, 12x12 sheet of summer related squares such as this "Hula Championship" and others like "Jacks Crab Shack" & "Deep Blue Swim Club" so I distressed the edge a little, added some gems (colored green with my one and only copic marker)I colored the chipboard using ink pads and stamped the inside!

Little Boy Grandpa :)

This is a page I just made tonight, the picture is my grandfather when he was young, and since he is old, and so is this picture, Graphic 45 paper fit the theme perfectly!! (Playtimes Past Collection)

Im getting excited for Fab Five Week for July!!! I went to my grandmothers house yesterday for some family time and ended up leaving with some great old pictures and beautiful pictures of my great grandparents wedding day. Getting excited for some inspiration from them!!

Fab Five Day Five

Our product for today was this ribbon, I started by finding cardstock that matched, I used cordinations paper for the yellow to give it some texture. I used the Daisy Bucket clear stamp "Mum Small" and stamped it on the blue with versa mark. The stamp on top is Unity Stamp Company, it comes in a Bundle Pack of neat quotes and of course I just had to have it!! And last but not least I put stickles on the flowers. Dont forget to leave a comment on any of our blogs to get entered for a prize drawing.

Fab Five Day Four!

This was my favorite project this week, funny this paper was my least favorite to start out with and quickly grew on me with all its possibilities once I sat down with it.
This paper looked vintage to me with the writing on it so I leaned towards Graphic 45 papers and found this one that matched quite well. I also spritzed a little Tattered Angels on the flowers for a little sparkle but its not shown in the picture and colored the butterfly with copic marker.

Supplies:
Background paper ( Dream Street Papers: "{Miss}fit-Feisty" )
Stamp (all natural beauty clear stamp)
Flowers (Prima flower embellishments)
Diecut: Graphic 45 Le Romantique Collection,

Fab Five Day 3

Welcome to day three!! Today I made a bubble card, like a shaker card but without the shake :)I colored the seahorse with copic markers and glued to the inside of the plastic bubble, cut out the circle in the cardstock and patterned paper using nestibiliites the "lets hang out" was stamped on white cardstock and stuck behind the plastic to poke through between the seahorses and glossy accented the bubbles to give them a true "bubble look"

Fab Five Day 2

This card is pretty simple to make, I used black and yellow cardstock for the circles, Just Rite Stamps, Black Ribbon and of course our Fab Five Day Two paper, American Crafts Amplified "Boom Box"

Hope your having fun checking out our creations this week! dont forget, leave a comment and get entered into a drawing for a prize! :)

Save The World For Me

Hello and welcome to another week of Fab Five designs!! This wasnt my original idea for this paper, but its been a pretty busy/stressful week at the Deetz/Grambort residence. We've had some puppy trauma, our littlest one Bentley hit his head and had some brain trauma, he was at the vet all week but is safe at home now and making a good recovery! Im hoping once he doesnt need to be "babied" as much Ill have a little more time and will still be able to create my original plan :) which I was very excited about for the past two months, but this week always seems to come too quickly!

I found this picture of me holding my little brother the day he was born (lately Ive been reminiscing a lot about how things were so much simpler back then, and how nice it would be to only have to worry about what time Rugrats was on) lol but anyways I thought it fit well with the paper and saying "save the world for me" as his big sister I feel its my duty to make sure the world is just as beautiful now as it is when he grows up and has children of his own (wow thats a scary thought) if you know him you know he can be a little/big turd at times! My mother certainly has her hands full at times.

I cut out the trees for the bottom border and cut the strips saying "save the world for me" assembled with matching "Woodland Whimsy" critter stickers.

Just a little something

One of my bestfriends who is a little "less creative" as she states, came into the store and loved the Graphic 45 paper, so I put together a little easy-to-do project for us, we bought notebooks from walmart and covered them in Graphic 45 papers and die cuts, they both turned out really cute, here is mine:

Fab Five>>> Day 5

I LOVE STICKLES!!! So of course I had to use some for atleast one project. I was chatting with lisa at work and decided this paper looked like it could be "frosting" So I had her make me up a cupcake on our Pazzle Machine. The Jewl brad on top of the cupcake was used for the paper to swivel for a secret message underneath, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

supplies: My Minds Eye Paper, purple, blue, and yellow stickles, jewl brad, Happy Birthday Stamp.

Fab Five Day 4

Fab 5 Day 3

Here it is, my Fab 5 Project Day 3:





When i first looked at this paper, I was at a loss, I had no idea what I could make of this paper, I actually got thursday and friday done before this project thats how at loss I was, but when I walked down the My Minds Eye aisle at Picture This, I pulled out this cute tag, grabbed a piece of matching paper, and just like that it came to me, it was so easy once I found these two other products, and that is my favorite thing about My Minds Eye Product, everything coordinates so perfectly, even when they aren't from the same collection. I added some twine and pearls and she was complete, enjoy!

Fab Five Day 2 :)

First of all Id like to let everyone know that my inspiration for this project was my good friend Brittney K. She is my little sunshine and the only person I know who can put a smile on her face when life throws her an unimaginable hardball, I love her dearly.

I used My Minds Eye Paper, and transperancy, "Christmas Red" Stickles over the word "shine" and glossy accents on the bird to make him pop out a little. Cuttlebug "Swiss Dots" on the sun and eylets. Hope you enjoy!

Fab 5 Day One

Here it is! My first Fab 5 project!



This flocked My Minds Eye Lush, "Pink Damask Paper" Screamed wedding to me, so I pulled out my Just Rite Wedding Stamp Set and got creative! If you havent noticed, Im kind of addicted to pearls and use them on practically everything, so of course I added a few pearls to this card to jazz it up, it is still pretty simple but with this beautiful paper, I didnt want to cover much of it up.
Thanks for checking out my blog, stay posted the rest of this week for more ideas, and dont forget leave a comment and get entered in for a drawing!!!
