Twinkling H2O's...:0)

Oh my, why did you all not tell me sooner to go out and buy these little beauties? I mean really and you call yourselves friends....hehehehhehe I forgive myself, I mean I have read for at least a year (I think) about these...hehehehe

Well, DH and I went shopping the last week one night after work and I asked him to stop by this sweet craft and frames shop before we went to dinner.... Because, we happened to have been one town over and they have some cute things and I hate to pass up a chance to just peek... I do not make it over there to shop very often... All, I have to say is I went in bought one six pack of H2O's and now I want more...:0) The scan does not do this image justice at all.. As many of you know that whom already play with these... Bought the pack with Nutmeg (my favorite), Evening primrose, Fresh oregano, Caribbean mist, Coral berry and Razzleberry... Woo hoo, I need more, is what I said after playing with them...:0) I first stamped the image in Old paper ink from Ranger, then painted it in using H2O's and a water pen from M's the green one.... I masked off all but the water and went back over it with Versafine, O.B. so, that you cloud see the movement of the water that the stamp has to offer... The corners are wire formed into rustic photo corners... Matchbook style card made from Bazzill card stock... TFL

Stamp: Auntie Amy's Embossing Arts
Inks: Ranger Tim Holtz, Old paper; Versafine, O.B.
Wire: Fun wire 22 gauge
Wired Worker to twist the closure... That is one of those had to have it forgotten tools... I used it....:0)

Christmas is still a few months away...

Christmas is still a few months away but, I could not wait to play with one of my stamps....:0)
This is an awesome stamp to play with... I can see myself coloring it in and doing even a few more things with it...
Okay, two things to tell you all about... First I got picked up on a design team, that right I am working for rubber...heheheehe I am now a member of Auntie Amy's design team... Thank you, Auntie Amy, I am on cloud nine right now... You can find a link to her site on my side bar...
They have great stamps and other stuff go pop over and check them out...

As if that was not enough I was in chat last night with some friend's and a my pop up window came up telling me I had new E-mail messages... I thought nothing of it and spaced it for a bit... After most of the girls had left and I was just chatting with one friend I told her to go get her craft things out of her craft room that is unattached to her house and that I would stay on-line with her just to make sure she made it back into the house okay... Her family was away for the night and I knew I would sleep better knowing my friend was safe and in her home playing the night away...:0)

Well, when she stepped out to get her stuff I popped over and checked my E-mail's.... These E-mails only made my cloud nine got to over the moon... I got Two message from Gina K. from Gina K. Designs on my blog.... Now you stampers know whom I am talking about as for the rest of you SHE IS AN AWESOME TALENTED LADY IN THE STAMPING WORLD... Yep, I was yelling it...hehehehehe Please forgive me.... It just both these things have made my whole day, week, year that much better....:0) Thanks, for looking... Sorry, I am so giddy....:0)))

A card I made for a friend...

I just love the look on this little sweeties face.... She has that look that is peaceful...
I know it is hard to see but, she has glitter glue just on the top outside edge of her wings... On the corner punch I just ran the ribbon through the holes for the paper, I just like that look better than a simple hole and it just came to me to try something new...
I know I was asked what I find of my DH's toy and tools to play with... Well, I find that he has so many tools that work for what I need... Like an itty bitty hand drill (it is like pencil size) that I have used a few times, dental tools with the fine tips, feathers, sandpaper, hobby mask, painters tape, airbrushes, and so much more... The funny thing is he will show me how to work anything that I need to know out in his shop... And he always knows where to look if something is missing from the shop...LOL Oh, and yes a few times he has asked me for something from my stash for his many hobbies....TFL
Stamp: The peddler's Pack Stampworks
