Some DT projects to share . . .

Happy Saturday my friends!!! Just thought I would upload a few projects that I have done over the last few months for Design Team over at IfItsGroovy.blogspot.com.


"Mi Mejor Amiga" is a pic of one of my best friends, Clara! She lives in Texas and I took this pic of her when I was there visiting this past National Scrapbook Day. The challenge for IIG was translation - to scrap in a language other then our normal language. Since Clara is from Puerto Rico and speaks spanish (as well as her family speaking fluently - beautiful to listen to!), I decided to put my title in Spanish! I made this lo using NO patterned papers!!! Everything was done using masks and glimmer mist! The top gingham pattern was actually done using drywall tape! I sprayed it and then removed the tape from my background paper. I misted the flowers as well and of course, then had to add some prima bling!!!

This lo for DT was for the challenge of using birds on a lo. I used a Timmy stamp for the big bird. The other birds are from some October Afternoon rubons that I had left over. Paper is BG Recess and then I used a variety of flowers and and bling! The mask is a Tattered Angels mask, also using glimmer mist to create the BG paper. My 4 year old Jackson shot this picture of me while we were at the pool at the campgrounds this summer! My budding photographer! He loves to grab the camera and snap away! Many times I will turn on my camera to find that he has taken several pics - and they aren't half bad! Might have to scrap some soon - "From Jackson's View".

I love how this lo of Payton turned out!!!! These pics were taken out at the campground last summer while Payton was fishing!!! The papers are from The Paper Loft "Dude" collection! (Thanks Sis!) I cut the gears using my Timmy Sixxiz Dies on my cuttlebug! I then put some glimmer misted papers behidn the gears! Who says you can't put bling on a boy page? I added some of Timmy's metal gears! Love them! The "YOU" in the title were some scrap thickers that I distress inked and then used a black marker to doodle around the edges!
Off to hopefully get some scrapping done today!! Hope you have a wonderful Saturday!

Another card!

I hurried last night and got this card made for a couple from our church! I LOVE how it turned out! So sweet! And so simple! Hope you enjoy it too! I also took a ceramic tile and cut out their last name on some vinyl using my cricut and then put it on the tile. Has their name with a flourish under it and then Est. 2010. They loved it when I gave it to them at church last night.

Will update more later but in the middle of a training session right now via my lappy!

Have a great day! ~ Heather

Again? Seriously?

I know what you are thinking!! Really! She is seriously posting again in 1 week? It's true! Wanted to share with you a card I made for our Youth Pastor for Pastor Appreciation Month!


This card was made using Dead Doll Jack - a digital stamp from Dustin Pike! I am entering him into the Doodle Dragon Studio challenge this week! Challenge was to do anything your heart desires as long as you use a Doodle Dragon Studio image! Used my copics to color Jack! All the papers were scraps and then grabbed some BG buttons to finish off at the bottom of the sentiment!

More to come later! I actually did get a lo done this week! I have also been busy making some picture frames to donate to the Christmas in November craft fair. Those have to be delivered this morning! So, I must go get myself ready to do that. Normally I work there and take the pictures of kids with Santa! Because of my surgery last week, I have resigned the duties over to my sister this year! Hopefully I can still get MY kids over there to get their pictures taken with Santa - if they aren't too scared of him! HAHAHAHAHA

Have a great fall day ya'll! ~ Heather

Feel Better?

Been making a few things while I am home following my surgery. I need to get busy uploading some things but this is a quick card that I did today for a lady at our church that recently had a hip replacement! Sending it over to her today!
This card is a lift of my friend Debbie's card! You can check out her blog at smalltowngurrl.blogspot.com! The digi stamp is from Greeting Farms!

Hoping to get this weeks challenge over at Doodle Dragon Studio done, as well as the challenge over at Kenny K's! Also working on some crafty picture frames to donate to a craft fair this weekend. Need to try and have those done by tomorrow!

Hope you enjoy and I will get more updated later! ~ Heather

Doodle Dragon Studios Challenge

Made this card this morning for my nephew for Halloween! Going to submit it for the challenge over at Doodle Dragon Studios Challenge to do something Halloween! Of course the best part of the challenge is getting to use Dustin Pike digi stamps! He is sooooo talented! You can check out his blog at www.dustinpike.blogspot.com!
So, I used this Beware digi stamp and colored with copics! Then I used a bunch of scrap paper to make the card! I used the MS Drippy Goo punch for the border and of course lots of distress ink!! The "Happy Halloween" stamp was from Stampendous!

Still need to get a few other things uploaded but hope you are enjoying this stuff as much as I am enjoying coloring with my copics! Finally have mojo to do some layouts . . . now if I could just get the kids to take a nap! HAHAHA

Have a great Trick or Treat Day! ~ Heather

Shock?

I know, you are in shock, right? Me, posting 2 days in a row! What's up with that? Had time this morning to make a few cards. This is a digi stamp, his name is Roger, that my friend Debikini sent me! I used him to make a birthday card for my grandma! Used my copics to color him and then used some scrap paper & ribbon to make the card!!! WOOHOO for using scraps!!!

Been a while . . .

My dear wonderful friends . . .

Sorry I haven't been in contact much lately! I had the 2nd of my 2 carpel tunnel surgeries yesterday! Hurting pretty good this morning! About to head back to bed but really just wanted to update everyone on what's going on!

3 1/2 weeks ago I had my first CT release surgery on my right hand!! Being right handed, I haven't been able to do much the past few weeks! But here is a card I did this past weekend for a cousins "Rock Star" birthday as she became a teen!! Happy Birthday Gwynn!!


I used the Dead Doll Madison digi stamp from Dustin Pike and colored her with my copics! Also colored the old white button I found with the copics to match her shirt! Must admit that this card is a lift - Jennifer Dove- of one of Dustin's DT members! I am in love with Dustin's images! You can check him out over at http://www.dustinpike.blogspot.com/! Warning! His site can become very addictive and you just might become a stalker! I know from experience! HEHE HAHA!

I did another card yesterday using Dustin's Dead Doll Jack! I will try to get it uploaded later today!

Also, don't forget to head over to http://www.ifitsgroovy.blogspot.com/! That is where I am a DT member, if anyone has forgotten! Groovy Deb is currently posting Halloween projects daily that have been created by the herself and the DT! Lots of great Halloween projects and ideas! Hope to see you there!!

BTW: We are looking for some new DT members, so if you are interested, email Groovy Deb!

Love you all! Thanks for your hugs and prayers through these surgeries and I hope to be back in scrappin' form soon! - Heather
