Heart Balloon

Hello!  Hmmm, I think I totally missed Valentine's Day.  Did I even post anything Valentine-y?  I had all these cute Valentine stamps and digis out but didn't get to place any of them onto cards.  I finally did make a card with this cute digi that I won from a new digi store called Time for Tea Designs.  She has got some cute images!  Her blog is HERE.

This is the image I picked and she is called Heart Balloon.  Isn't she pretty?  Though I think, ... no, I know I messed up her hair.  Or at least that is not what I was going for.  Sometimes when I'm trying to go for that highlighted hair I kind of mess up and end up coloring the whole thing.  But I don't wanna waste the image so I still just go with it.  I'm gonna have to try this one again.

Hope you are enjoying your weekend!

Thanks for stopping by!

She's sweet!! I think she looks terrific, including her hair. But I know what you mean about trying for highlights and ending up coloring the whole image, I still think it looks lovely.
I'm going to check out the site, TFS!

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...
