Card no. 44 - Happy B'Day Emily

My lovely sister-in-law had her birthday on the 12th, so I made her a card with this cute Lily from the Pink Cat Studio.
I made it before the 12th but having a new baby makes simple tasks a challenge .... soooo... a little late to post.

I used the 3D Crystal Lacquer that I got back in '09 Scrapbooking Expo in SLC. I want to use it more often, but have a hard time finding the right cards. This one needed it and it works perfectly. I, of course, use stickles (Diamond) and my dear ProMakers & Shin Han Markers.
The papers are gorgeous S.E.I. papers - got them last year too - and Bazzill Basics. I embellished the card with few rhinestone flowers from Michaels' and I used my Marvy Uchida's Scalloped Circle (size 3" and 3 1/2")Punches.

Card no. 43 - Thank you (for my Baby Shower)

My lovely friend Denise surprised me with a baby shower (before Hannah was born) and I made this Thank You Card for her. It was so wonderful of her to think of me ... I enjoyed the fantastic company, great food and all the gifts were just as fantastic.

THANK YOU!!!!

I just love this paper, I got it in Salt Lake City - during the Scrapbooking Convention and didn't think it would look as pretty, but now I wish I've got few more.

I used my SCAL to cut the flowers and layered them up with a bit of sticky glue. I think the colors match perfectly. Yay!!!

I printed "Thank You" sentiment on my printer - I am not sure what font I used. Sorry...

I think, (if I remember correctly) I used Bev's Layout on this card and the previous card - the same design, if not I apologize, but I don't remember.

Card no. 42 - Happy Holidays

OK, first of all .... HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! I hope everyone will have a fantastic time and will enjoy every minute of this new decade.

I made this card weeks ago for my daughter's teacher, but didn't have a chance to upload it. I swaddled my new baby and she's peacefully resting on my chest while I type with one hand :)

I'll have to updat/reorganize the card details, in a little bit, because of the movement restriction, but I used the Whiff of Joy's Henry w/ the Heart Stamp, my Cricut Personal Cutter, Heidi Grace Papers (Jolly & Bright | Holly Stripe and Jolly & Bright | Berry Spray), Prima Flowers, Martha Stewart's Border Punch, K&Company Rhinestones, Making Memories's Love notes shaped pin & Marvy Uchida's 3" scalloped circle punch.

ENJOY!!!

Not pregnant anymore ...

Had a fantastic day on the 17th and welcomed my new daughter to the World.

Isn't she gorgeous? ;)

Still adjusting to the new person in my house ... so it can be few more days/weeks before I return to "my hobby"... sorry ladies, I just can't get enough of my little Christmas angel... and yeah, there is that lack of sleep ...

Sorry for not posting lately ...

Sorry everyone for not posting any new projects lately ... I am just too anxious to do anything (other than folding and refolding baby clothes) .... I have my scheduled C-Section this Thursday (December 17th) and I am just not sure if to be excited or terrified.

Anyhow, it might be a while before I actually will do some crafting, but I am surely thinking about it ☺

Happy Holidays!!!
