Pics and a Tag

Hell All! Today is a JFF post with a few pics from Saturday's Intermediate Copic class.

Here is a pic of Me on the left and Maria on the right. It was the first time meeting Maria in person. She is one of those people that you meet through blogland and are happy to stay friends forever. It was nice meeting you Maria:0) You can visit her blog HERE and see her gorgeous creations.

 We were lucky enough to have both Sherri and Marianne as our instructors. WAY COOL Huh!

 And now on to my creation to share today. I am getting a head start on my Christmas tags for this year and here is this fun and colorful one.

Here is a closer view of Humphrey's 1st Christmas. from Crafter's Companion; seriously I think I have found a new addiction; I am in LOVE and not only with these cute images but with the way of storing them. These stamps are mounted on EZ-Mount, pre-cut perfectly and come on a sturdy card that you can just slip into a CD case and it is perfect storage. Aint he just so darn CUTE! I think so; I just love him and he is so easy and fast to color. He was colored with my trusty Copics and was given some sparkle fluff on his hat. 

I would like to enter this tag in the following challenges:

Love is in the AIR

Time for a new challenge over at Top Tip Tuesday and this week our challenge is......Sketches. Lisa has given us 2... being that I have such a hard time with CAS I opted for the layers sketch.

Here is my creation:

Here is a closeup of Herbert's In Love; aint it just so super adorable? It is colored with Copics and if you look closely you can see my scribling that I have done in the background to look like clouds. I just went crazy and freestyled it:0)

I am quiet enjoying making these cupcakes; I think it will be some time until I make another as my glue gun went up in smoke! The card holder is a giant paper clip bought at Target.

Here are the sketches; hope you play along with us:0)

 I am here to share a creation that I have made specifically for the Saturated Canary Guest Design Team Call. Oh it is a dream to be on this team and if I don't try then I will never have the chance. So hope you like it. Oh I just love this color!

My New Years motto is "Use it UP!" Instead of hoarding supplies and keeping them because they look so pretty I am now determined to use up my supplies, all of them even the really pretty and more expensive ones! I figure that if I don't use it up then I cannot justify buying more:0) Hehehe! Here I have used a veritety of ribbon and pretty flowers. I am also using my PTI cardstock and pretty papers:0) See I told you I am determined!
This little card box houses these two matching corner bookmarks. They are so super easy to make and makes a great mini gift. This project already had a person's name written all over it!

Here is a closer look at the super adorable Thank You she was included in an order I placed some time ago. I just love Krista's work and being the great person she is just makes me want them even more! Such a talented young Mom/Woman/Wife/Artist!

5-10 Pounds!

Hello Ladies;

I am back! I took a mini trip to Chicago and have been back since Monday night. Just now getting caught up with work and now can have some play time. I will tell you the reason for my post title is due to my excessive eating during this trip; I am not kidding you, I gained anywhere from 5-10 pounds in 4 days! I KNOW!  We just spent our days chatting away and eating it is not such a big surprise coming from a Mexican family it is just what we do!

Here are my two sisters and I. The prego one is due at the end of this month; oh I wish her luck. Oh I miss these ladies already! They are so fun to be around! This picture was taken in my sisters front yard; yup she lives out in the boonies!

Here is my lovely Grandma. look at her so beautiful; do you see the resemblance?? Hehehe:0) She is the sweetest lady around! This is the Grandma that has done some crochet flowers for me that I hang on so tight and hardly want to use! I snatched this pix at McD before heading out to the airport.

Well off to do some crafty stuff:0)

Hugs!
