Congratulations Erika & Matthew!!!

One of my best friends just got engaged on Monday.... FINALLY!!!!!! My husband Chris introduced them & we are both very excited that they made it official!! 

This is the card I made for Erika from all of us at work.  I chose purple since it's her favourite colour & used my Cricut to cut out the phrase with my Storybook cartridge, the middle say A Wish Came True... (Erika has been dreaming about this for a while and to quote Disney a dream is just a wish your heart makes)  The little heart background is a cricut cut from the Artiste cartridge.  I used my Wink of Stella sparkle pen to add a little glimmer to the heart, I love that pen it's adds just the right amount where you want it.

Anyway... She LOVED it!!!! 

Hope to post again soon!

Star Wars Card

I made this card for one of my best friends who found a new job. Both her & I have an obsession with Star Wars, so I had to make her a Star Wars card. Truth be told finding Star Wars stamps is not easy although I found these stickers in Michael's and they could not be more perfect cause not only are they Star Wars but they are also LEGO!!!! WOOHOO!!!!

I found the paper at a local scrapbooking store in Minneapolis on one of our many adventures to Scrapfest and of course I had to have it.

I'm super happy with the result and am totally in love with the Lego Star Wars stickers.

Thanks for stopping by & May the Force be with you!!!

Happy Birthday Caroline!!

Here's the birthday tag I created for my sister & bestest friend Caroline!!

As you can tell I'm continuing with my Tim Holtz craze!! :)

For Caroline's tag I only used my Picked Raspberry Distress Ink pad, I have the stain somewhere (time to reorganize my scrapbooking room) but the ink pad was just as good. The effect on the tag is created by rubbing the ink pad all over the tag & then spray water on it while drying it with my heat tool, I'm obsessed with the look & effect :) The cupcake is from Tim's blueprint collection, the sparkle was created with glamour dust... also from my Tim Holtz collection is the metal plate & glass fragment.

The effect on the glass fragment is from stamping with versa mark & then using holograph embossing powder and a wee bit if heat to make the little present pop... I LOVE the effect!!

Then I used some twine & crinkle ribbon dyed picked raspberry of course to finish it up.

I'm really happy with the result & Caroline was too!!

Thanks for visiting & take care :)
