Bookmarks for all!

The gang and I are all reading the Lightning thief as we wait for the movie to come out.

With 4 people reading 1 book I thought we needed some personalized bookmark to keep track of our pages. The first is inspired by the color challenge over at the Diva Coffee Break Designs.

This one is for theColour Q.-17

I an not totally in love with how it looks but is is good at keeping track of pages. {LOL}

The last one I made is inprired by Gabby and Anya

{I' m using my Edward bookmark, So I didn't make myself one.}

Happy Krafting!

This Cute little Monkey card is inspired by "DEX" from the Movie: The Night at the Museum.

I used a few Challenges to create this card.

Many thanks {cards}

Well I took a few days off from the nook to do a few mommy type things. I mostly was a nurse to the kids that got the flue over the week-end and them having a turn after. When I had the flu I rested and finished a book. My husband was able to take the kids out for the day, since it was on the week-end. That gave me lots quiet witch is rare whn you have 4 healthy children!
I did have an order for a 10 thank you card to do as well.

Happy Krafting!

Twilight Valentine

Here it is, my first Valentine of the season and it is a Twilight Valentine!

I made this card for a die hard fan of Twilight. She doesn't even know how many times she has read the Twilight saga.  We are talking a person who's read the book 50 or mabey even more times. She really know the whole story.

So, I had to used lines from the books to convince her it was really from her Edward!

Front~~~~~Back

Front says: "My Singer"

Back says: You're nor sleeping, and you're not dead. I am hear and I love you.

 I was also looked for pictures to inspire me. I personally love the Meadow scene. It's so pretty!

The colors for this week Colour Q #14 were great for re-creating the meadow's serene beauty.

The Twilight Tuesday Challenge is for Sparkle! so I placed a sparkle in the flowers.

I would love to hear a Twilighter's view of the my Twilight Valentine?

My guy Ian in the woods

My guy Ian has been one of my favorite stamps from the Greeting farm.

He is too cool for school! I have used him on card for both men and teen and it look good every-time. I have even used him to make an engagement and anniversary cards. This My guy Ian card was made with a sketch #5 from the 12 Sketches for Christmas. I use lots of natural embellishments to accent this cart: wood button, twine mesh, maple and birch bark pattered paper

I think that wooden buttons are my favorite buttons to embellish.

Since they are neutral so the match with everything.

My Guy Ian in the Woods

The Splendid Stamping with the Greeting Farm Blog is asking what our craft rooom/area looks like.

Pictures of the real Kraft Nook!

~*~Good day~*~         ***BAD  DAY***

L.O.L... I hope looking at my messy craft area is an encouragement.

I find it hard to keep me "creative energy going" when I stop to tidy.

That being said, I also find that tidying up give me lot of ideas of what I could be creating!?!

Happy Krafting!
