OUCH!

Get Well Card for Michaela

A couple days ago, Michaela tripped and tumbled down on the floor and hit her head. As I was comforting her I said "How about I make you a Get Well card?" Of course she said yes! :)

As the day went on I got reminded SEVERAL times with the question "When you gonna make me a Get Well card?" I waited until she was sleeping and then put it on her nightstand. It was the first thing she noticed when she woke up the next morning! She came right into my room and said Thank You!! It was SO CUTE! And she also said "that was a lot of hard work wasn't it." Well, after her careful inspection of my craft work...she pointed out the boo-boos that I made! LOL Can you find them?

Supplies used for this 5" x 5" card: Stamps are from Inky Antics, Savvystamps, Close to My Heart and Stampin' UP! Inks used were Stampin' UP! Craft & VersaMark. Stampin' Write Marker from Stampin' UP!

I embossed the image on the front and colored it with Prismacolor Colored Pencils. Blended them with Gamsol Magic and blending stumps. I used Crystal Effects on the nose of both the dog and cat. The dots background was stamped with VersaMark and embossed. All the letters stamped and the bandaid were stamped with Craft Ink and then embossed. The shading done under the dogs feet was done with Sahara Sand Marker from Stampin' UP!

Happy Anniversary Nic!

WHAT SALE?

Every Saturday one of my favorite stores - Stamp Works has a $1 Make-n-Take. My 6 year old daughter Michaela and I like to go and then shop around the store for those "gotta have" goodies. So....when we headed over there this morning we had NO idea there was a big 1 Year Anniversary celebration going on! You know what that means....more goodies get to come home with us!

Oh yes...you know it....I got ALL EXCITED! 20% off everything in the store! FREE Make-n-Takes, Door Prize Drawings and Refreshments! Somebody hold me back!! Now this is the way to start off your day! To start off I grabbed the Silhouette Dress stamp I have been looking at everytime I go there.

A Dot Background stamp jumped off the shelf right into my basket. Then I spotted the "what's brewing?" saying that I had to have because it's PERFECT for the Like it a Latte stamp set from Stampin' UP! Then a fun Postage Stamp Frame stamp was looking for a new home -- so yah -- it found ME.

What about Bellas? Haven't you got a Bella yet? Well...OK...I guess I need one of those too! How could I resist the Stacyfisabella since I have been making fish stuff for Father's Day! LOL. So that was easy to pick and the 2 sayings to go with it - "Wish Big" and "Worm Wishes."
