MOJO227 & Shabby Tea Room ~ Just for you ~






Here is my MOJO Monday challenge, I went in to my stash and and found some pretty patterns. I used a nice bright White card stock, for the card it self then added a pink to layer over the white, then added my two printed pieces. I used my MS butter fly punches, I used my spellbinder small scalloped oval, and used my stamp "just for you" I then used my stampin'up! ink.
I added a pink satin ribbon and then added the bow. I used my hot glue gun and my glue stick to adhere the papers. I enjoyed doing this challenge for MOJO MONDAY once again. I hope you all enjoy this card I created and would love to have your comments and even have you as one of my followers.
Thank you for visiting and do visit again soon .

Pretty Pallette # 46 ♥ Love fills our Home ♥








I wanted to enter a card that would be all together different then any of the others, so I drew my sketch of what I wanted I then made myself a template, Using my scalloped Scissors I cut the trim for the tops of the card and the inside over the words.I stamped a window and then cut it out colored it in added some MS tiny butterfly's and added a cloud to the center of the inside of the window.I used my marvy punch to make my fence then put red ribbed ribbon through it.I added a bunch of roses behind the fence and put Red glitter glue over some of them.I added more butterfly's using my MS punch.put some Liquid pearl on them.added a label at the top of the house I printed "Love fills our Home " put a plaid Bow at the very top of the house and added a red chimney then I put the words staggered " Home Sweet Home" on the inside of the card I wrote these words and then printed it out.

"Love Fills our Home "

Home is the place your heart resides
Home is full of sisters and brothers
Home is where you feel your best
Home is where the family meets
Home is the place where your heart will stay

Home Sweet Home !

Thank you for visiting I hope you enjoyed my card as much as I enjoyed designing and creating it.

♥ little Pink hair tie box for Tay.♥










Just a quick little post for me to share with my friends and visitors, I altered this little box for my Granddaughter Tay, She asked me to do one for her a few months ago. But our local Michaels didn't have them, until yesterday. So I picked it up for her and altered it to make it special just for her she loves PINK so it is all Pink as you can see. She is a Special young Lady, She has a horse and just loves him so much his name is Levi. She is Daddy's little girl "Now 16 and driving"
where did the time go. She is just Beautiful and we are so proud of her as we are of all "9" of the grand-kids. I posted a picture of our sweet Tay and her horse so you all can see.
I hope you like this little box.
Thanks for visiting and I hope you visit again real soon.
