PICKLES!

Hello Blog Friends,

I'm sure you've wondered where I've been.  I haven't been blogging for quite some time.  You know how life gets in the way of fun sometimes.

Our son opened a brinery, so I made some cards for the pickle shop.  I chose pickles to stamp, even though other foods are available at the brinery.  Pickles are so much fun to stamp!  The business is going great guns and doing just awesome.  All foods he makes are fermented, so they have lots of the good probiotics that are so good for us.  :0)

Today's card is a couple of pickles I found and wanted to share.  Cute sentiment "Out of everyone in the world, I pickle you!"  Makes me smile.

Colored with Copics, and then I added some green (of course) sequins to finish images off.  I'll be posting more pickle cards later on.

Thanks for stopping by to visit!

Hugs, Geri 

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Hello Blog Friends!

Blogging business has been very slow on my end, but I did make a new Halloween card this year.  I used a House Mouse stamp.  Monica the Butterfly.  She's so darn cute.  Copic coloring, Spellbinder's frame die, scrapbook paper from my Halloween stash, and the orange ribbon is from JoAnn's.  The embellishments are Nuvo enamel glitter orange.  I used a little Diamond Stickles on the pumpkin.

I hope you all are well and ready for the little ghosts and goblins tomorrow night.

Be safe and have a fun Halloween!

ORANGE & YELLOW ON BLACK

Hello Bloggers!


I hope you're all ready for the weekend.  Summer is quickly coming to an end.  Our mornings feel a bit chilly compared to the last few months.  Feels good!  

Today's card is one I made in a SU workshop with Leilani, awhile back.  The clear acetate with gold design on the left side is by SU, as are the stamps and sentiment.  After coloring the flowers and die cutting, it was a quick card to put together.

Thanks for stopping by to visit.  I'll be back later with another card.

Hugs,

A Card made for Southwest Trading Post's - Just Brads & Eyelets Co.

Hello Bloggers,

Today's card is one I made for the owner of Southwest Trading Post's Brads & Eyelets.  They're a bit hard to see.....but if you look closely, you'll see the cute centers of the flowers.  They are embellishments from Just Brads & Eyelets.  Just Brads & Eyelets owner, Sharalynn, put out a challenge to make something with the green embellishments.  This is what I came up with.
Stamps are from Stampin Up, ribbon from my stash, and a dotted embossing folder for the background.

HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY!

Hello Blog Friends,

As you can tell, I've been really bad about blogging.  I have so much to do, blogging has not been on my mind.

I hope you are well.  I just wanted to pop in and wish everyone a Happy 4th.

No 4th of July card to post, but I'll share a dragonfly card with you today.

The white background was stamped with a tan ink pad, and the dragonflies were colored with green and blue.  I made the card so long ago, I don't remember what supplies were used.  :o(  The dragonfly die is by SU.  Three pearls were added to finish it off.

Thanks for stopping by.....and have a fun and safe celebration!

Hugs, Geri 

HAPPY EASTER!

HAPPY EASTER!

Wishing you all a blessed day with family and friends.  

This year's Easter card is one with some humor.  I've seen different versions of this, and this is mine.....
I used scrapbook paper from my stash for the background.  The grass was cut with fringe scissors, and the tiny flowers are made from a variety of punches, then I dotted the centers with yellow Liquid Pearls.   The brown bunnies are a Tim Holtz die.  I used a scallop punch to remove part of one bunny's butt, and the other one's ears.  I hope you get the humor....one friend told me she had to explain it to her hubby.  Ack!  To finish off the card, I added a few green sequins.

IT'S DRAGONFLY TIME!

Happy Weekend Friends!

It's dragonfly time.  Summer is almost here, and these little guys will be flying around before we know it.  I think we all love the beauty of the dragonfly.  I used to love seeing them when we went fly-fishing.  I used to fish from a float tube and paddle around the lake.....so much fun!  The best part was having so many different colored dragonfly's land right on my float tube!  

I made this card at the Glitter Chicks swap, and it was originally designed by Liane.  She makes beautiful cards, and dragonflies are one of her favorites.  Thanks, Liane!  Awesome card.  This is the new SU dragonfly die. Pretty die cut doily, and I'm not sure, but it may also be SU.  Love the brown and white polkadot paper, and the tan embossed background behind the dragonfly is so pretty.  Three tiny pearls added, and the sentiment on a little banner and card is done.

Thanks so much for stopping by.  I'll be back later with something new.  

Hugs, Geri
