Tags




Here are a couple of the tags I managed to get made! I decided to created these for my "blogging" friends, I'm not offically "tagging" anyone, but did want to participate, and thought I'd still create special tags for some of you. I managed to get 3 done, before I messed up a setting on my Elements, and now I can't get it to work, and seeing as I have absolutely NO experience with elements at all, I can not correct what ever it is that I've done! LOL!!!


Enjoy your tags girls, and when I'm all fixed up I'll get some more done!


The Wedding.....

was a huge success! We ended up having beautiful weather for a sunset ceremony on the beach! Here are a few pictures for you! Enjoy! I hope to get a chance to do some scrappin' soon!

Here is the beautiful bride and our Dad walking down the tiki-torch lined "aisle". This is part of the ceremony. They had a sand ceremony, kind of like with the candles in the church, but here each person has their own vase of colored sand that they layered in a clear vase. Each layer has a special meaning and then the last layer is Becky and Darrell's different colored sands poured together to represent their union. It makes such a lovely keepsake!
This is the entire Bridal party with the parents. They each had only one witness, myself and Darrel's best friend. simple and fairly casual!

TFL!
Oh Alicia and Elaine.....I saw your tags and promise I will get to them. I'm very inspired, as I've never tried anything like this before so I'm looking forward to trying something new! I've got to spend some time re-arranging and updating my Blog! I still have yet to get to Sarah's bumper tag, so hopefully I'll get them all done this week!

A couple of more!





Seem to have found some play time, here and there!

The one on the top is made from my scraps from the card below. It is definately Bety inspired, in the use of the flowers, buttons, and twine.


The black card is just some playing around with some more scraps. I inked that chipboard flower but my red ink just doesn't "match" the other reds in the cards! Oh well you win some and lose some, right?


Alicia, to answer your question from my last post my corner rounder is from EK Success, Don't know if that's a brand name or not? I bought it at Walmart, and it doesn't cut through folded cardstock...... easily!




Couldn't take it any more....


I had to sit down and make a card yesterday. I've been seeing this style for a while now and have been wanting to try one, especially after seeing Carla and Alicia's great work with them! Hope you like!
Have a good one!

WooooooHoooooo!

I won some blog candy...... I won the celebration candy, from Kimberly's Angel Blog, for getting her angel wings! I'm so excited as it includes an altered tin, by Kimberly - who's work is so adorable, and some stamped images! Can't wait to play with them!

Thanks Kimberly!

Well, I've had absolutely NO time to play! We did put the house on the market, the sign went up yesterday, so since last Thursday we have pretty much done nothing but redo the two rooms that still had not been redone since we moved in, 5 yrs ago! Thankfully my MIL Debbie has been with us every step of the way helping out, if not, I'm not sure things woud have ever been finished, so.......... BIG "Thank You" to Debbie!

and.... my sister's wedding is this coming Sat. I've been busy finishing up the party favors that will be given away, and I still have a speach to write.....??????? Hopefully I'll find some time to create , as there are a couple of cards that I've seen and wanted to try!

Missing my craft table!

Another Sketch!


Here is another card for Carla's latest Sketch challenge, as soon as I saw it I new I wanted to try it. Again, I did change the sketch a tiny bit!

The other card is the one I made at Debbie's and thought I had taken a picture of, with the others, but hadn't. I was flipping through Debbie's newest CARDS issue, LOVE that Magazine, and I thought I saw a button hanging on some ribbon and thought well isn't that neat, but when I looked again I realized it was just the way the end of the bow was hanging down over the button. Well I thought I'd try hanging some buttons just to see what it would look like, and I kinda like it!

I've been saving my cards to put sentiments on for when I need them, so this is why they look so blank!

I must run, we've decided to try and sell our house, the agent is coming tonight to look at it, and with 2 kiddies it's so difficult to keep claen and uncluttered! Need to tidy up a bit!

Have a great evening all! TFL!
