My Hubby!!

Just want to share this picture with you!
This is a Picture of my Husband in Afghanistan, where he is currently deployed to for nine months now. I am so PROUD of him!!! He should be home in about 8 days.. I am so EXCITED!!! Can't wait to have him home. My girls miss him a lot ... We are so excited to have him home before Christmas!! I just love the BG view of this picture. Look at the mountain, how cool!!

A light has Shined!

I am in love with these Ornare! Can you tell? My card today is made with one of the newly released set from Our Daily Bread Designs. I love this verse, so I decided to use it today for my card. I Layer my verse several times with the Nestabilities circle, sewn around the circle, then layer it on my square with some pop up glue dots. I also use some ribbons and a stick pin from my pretties kit, and my Ornare to put the finishing touch to my card. My Layout is from Jen del Maro Sketch for you to try.

Mojo Madness.....

Julee's Mojo Madness Contest #63Ok, So here is the deal with this card! My internet was down this morning and I had to find something to do, beside cleaning my house! (Who wants to clean when they can be making card..LOL!!). I decided to make a card for Julee Mojo Monday Sketch 63. I remember a little what the sketch look like and I also remember her saying " Embraces the white space!"... Well that is all that I remember and I started to make my card after I finish all the piercing and had all the layers finish and was ready to put the card together, my internet was up. I went to Julee's blog and look at the sketch and what she said, and realized that my card is a little different from the sketch, because I EMBRACES the WHITE a little too much. LOL!!! The piercing took me forever to do and I was not going to redo the whole card so I leave it just the way it is. Hope this will work for Julee's Mojo Monday Madness....

SC195 I wait for the Lord

My card layout is for today Sketch Challenge over on Splitcoast and my colors are for Kwerner Color inspiration #33. These are some more colors I was skeptical to work with, but once again I was wrong, they look great. I use my new stamp from Our Daily Bread Designs called I wait for the Lord. I could not find any Designer Paper that I think will stand out with this Sketch, so I decided to use my Ornare,(which you can also find at ODBD) to complete my card. I think it give my card the finishing touch without using any DP. I also add some rhinestone and pearls to give it a little more detail.

CC195 My First Award!!












I got my First Award Yeah!!!
My wonderful friend Jane gave me these awesome Award!! I cant believe that I got my first Award, I am so excited!!!! Thank you Jane. I am new to this so I hope that I am doing it right.
The award originally came from Tasha at Millie's Magical Moments http://milliesmagicalmoments.blogspot.com/ and she translated the meaning from Portuguese to English: "This award invests and believes in proximity-(creating friendships)! -meaning that blogging makes us close ! also- These blogs are exceedingly charming. These bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in prizes or self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbon of these awards are cut, even more friendships are propagated.


You Shouldn't Have...

Today's Color Combination on Splitcoast is Basic Vanilla Sand. I never use these colors together before,and was kinda a skeptical to try them. I gotta tell you I kinda like they way they look. My Penny Black stamps are dying to get inked, so I decided to use this cute little pig for my card. My layout is for Taylors Expression Cupcake Challenge #44.
