Espressly for you

My friend Nicola and I got together Sunday and did some stamping.  This is a coffee-themed card that I made.  Stamps are from Impression Obsession and an unknown manufacturer.  We had a great stamping day!

Summer Fun

This card was made for a Swap on ORSA (a yahoo group I belong too.  The theme was Fun in the Summer Sun (rain).  I have had a great summer even though it has rained quite a bit.  I have enjoyed all the beautiful storms we have had.  I hope you too have had a great summer.  This stamping set is from My Favorite Things called "Rain and Shine".  Thanks for looking.

Index cards

I wanted to keep the cards I made for people's special occasions organized and ready to mail out.  I made index cards.  The front of the index card is removable and has the person's special  occasion and date for that month.  Hope you like it.

Cake!

I saw this card demo'd at Angela's on Saturday.  It is shaped like a piece of cake.  Very neat idea Angela!  This store located in Dundas, Ontario Canada has free demos every Saturday.

Elephant Trio

This card is inspired by Michelle Zindorf's work.  Check out her blog-I have it on my sidebar.

Fairy in her cage

Next we constructed a cage for our little fairy.  She isn't too happy about being placed in the cage though....

Little Fairy for the Fairy Catcher Doll.

The little fairy is sculpted out of clay.  I used Premo.  I then painted her with a turquoise paint, added clothing, beads and wings.  How cute is that?!

New doll

I'm in the process of making a new doll.  It is an online class given by Cindee Moyer through www.joggles.com.  You can see the doll we are making here.  This is such a fabulous class.  The instructions are well written and you get a password to the forums to ask your teacher and fellow doll makers questions.  I'm so excited.

Make a Wish

This card was made using the "You Take the Cake" clear stamp set from My Favorite Things.  I paper pieced her dress.  The cake is coloured with alcohol based markers (Prisma).  I am loving this type of marker.  I used Perfect Pearls for the icing on the cake.
