Birthday Wishes

Hello!  I posted this card over at Yumi & Fumi Handmade Crafts blog in honor of Sandie's birthday.  I'm finally sharing it here.

This is Yumi with Fan.  She was fun to color up!  I didn't really know what colors I was going for but somehow it came together.  Sometimes I have no plans or ideas about the card but then everything falls into place.  Even used my leftover doily from another card that was still on my crafty table.  And I dug up some pins that I had in my stash from a while back.  The sentiment is from Wild Rose Studio.

I exercised again today!  But exercise makes me sleepy.  Does it make you sleepy?  I still keep waiting for that feeling that everyone says exercise gives them.  You know, about feeling rejuvenated and energetic, and how if they go a day without exercising then they feel off.  How long does it take to get to that point?  I think I will never reach that point.  Cause after I exercise I wanna take a nap.  Not go run around some more outside.  So I think after this post, I'm gonna go lie down and nap.  

Thanks for reading!

Fab job Eva. I wish these images were available in digi as that is what I can afford. Love seeing the beautiful way you color them up, and I love the Bingo sheets in the background.

Another pretty card! Pretty skin tones and kimono coloring too! I think it's just too humid to feel so peppy in Hawaii! That sticky sweaty feeling would just make me want to veg in front of the A/C.

TGF 3rd Annual Customer Blog Hop

By
Hi!  After finishing up these 2 projects for TGF's Blog Hop , I've come to realize that I am kind of addicted to stamps, especially TGF stamps.  Hehe.  Okay, I will not babble on too much since there are lots of other blogs to check out as well.  I made something for both categories, Holiday and General. First up is my Holiday card. I recently acquired Hippie Anya!  She inspired me to make a "peace" card for the holidays. But then I had to add Fleur Anya for "love" ... and 80s Anya for "joy."  So great that these stamps could be turned into something Christmas-y. My General project has been swimming in my mind ever since I made that counting book a while back with TGF stamps as well.  I thought I could make an ABC book too.  But I didn't make this into a book.  More like flashcards, I suppose.  My youngest has a hard time recognizing lower case letters so I thought this would be fun for him.  All stamps are TGF.  I ...

upcycling Pokemon wrappers

By
Hello everyone!  I am back with my latest sewing creations.  I have been playing around with plastic wrappers!  I've seen those upcycled plastic wrap bags and purses (usually made from Capri Sun package juice) but never really paid attention to them or how they were made until I saw this tutorial using the wrappers from Pokemon cards.  My boys love Pokemon cards and were just throwing the wrappers away but I started saving them and collected enough from their recent birthdays to make a couple of items.  Here is a little coin pouch (didn't want to call it a purse since it's for my youngest boy and he'd probably not like that).  This little pouch was made with 4 wrappers, 2 in front and 2 in back.  It is a bit tough to turn right side out because the wrappers and contact paper get stiff.  But it's possible and looks really neat!  I made it so he could hang it from the inside of his backpack and also carry around a little bit of emergency...
