Frappi Anya...

Hello My Crafty Friends!!!

I know a looooong time no post! Eeek!!! 

Honestly I have been making cards. I just 

have not been blogging about them. I do 

post them to my Instagam page  under the name

ladyb266

Well I have some birthday's coming up 

and have been in Birthday card making mode

lately.  I colored up some Frappi Anya's  and I thought

I would check to see what the latest Greeting Farm challenge

is to enter some of them into.  Well September's challenge

is a Sketch challenge.

and here is my interpretation of it:

I added wink of stella to her hair bow and the heart on

her frappi cup so in real life they are really sparkly.

Thanks for stopping by my blog. Please check out my Instagram

page to see more card inspiration and more about my daily life.

Hugs, Heidi

Birthday Wishes......

Hello my Crafty Friends!!!!

So I was very excited to receive The Greeting Farm's 

new mermaid stamps in the mail just recently. The 1st

set I played with was the Little Mermaids stamp set and dies.

My Mom's birthday is at the end of this month so this is who I 

made this cute card for.  I had fun playing with all my new dies 

and stamps.  I water colored the background using my Zig

Clean Color markers on Tim Holtz water color paper. I sprayed

it with water mixed with perfect pearls to give it a 

shimmery look too.  I created a really cute inside to this too

but I forgot to take a picture of it darn it!!!

Leela Merbean......

 Hello my Crafty Friends!!!

I finished up making this mermaid card for my

friend's up coming birthday this week. This is a 

digital stamp by The Greeting Farm called

Leela Merbean.  She is my Favorite merbean

of the bunch!! I colored her up with my Copics and 

I used lots of clear Wink of Stella glitter pen all

over her fins and crown but the picture does it no 

justice on showing all that sparkly shine!!!

I started out with the intentions of making

this into a shaker card but I took a different route

instead.  I Love the way it turned out and I hope my 

friend does too!!  I have seen other people make

pull out tags on their cards and tried my hand at 

that.  I saw this random saying online and wrote

it down and computer generated it and cut it

out with my Tags A Lot die by Mama Elephant.

I am entering this card into 7 challenges:

Hello my Crafty Friends!!!!!

So I got to sit and color up some

images already colored up laying around.

newsletter from The Greeting Farm. I 

don't know exactly what her name is so

I guess I will call her Mermaid Anya 2.

Isn't she Beautiful?!?!? I am in need

of Birthday cards in my stash and this

is what I came up with. I used the sketch

from Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge for 

my layout.

Happy Anniversary

Hello Crafty Friends!!

Hope everyone had a 

fun and crafty weekend!!!

I played around a little.

This card took me forever!!

I could not find my foam mount

tape so I used white adhesive fun foam

to make this shaker card.

I used the cute Valentine Anya digi

for my card!  We are still in the 

process of remodeling and my craft

room is jammed packed with stuff

that should not be there!  I feel

like am working out of a closet.

After I was all done with this I

found my back up roll of foam tape. 

Ugh....figures!!
