Happy Wednesday to you all!!<br />
I would like to share a Christmas Card that I will be adding to my stash for this year.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dUQJ87t1ZGI/TNGA4FTLseI/AAAAAAAAAYw/AN27jzz9Fy8/s1600/DSCF2422_edited-1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" px="true" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dUQJ87t1ZGI/TNGA4FTLseI/AAAAAAAAAYw/AN27jzz9Fy8/s400/DSCF2422_edited-1.jpg" width="308" /></a></div>First it's a wonderful snowman from Sassy Cherly's collection of snowmen.....I just love her snowmen they have so much character and are always having fun. <br />
I've color the snowman with Triart markers and as usual with some prisma pencils. <br />
The papers I've had for awhile so I'm not sure who they are from.<br />
The snowflakes are from Martha Stewarts line of punches and the small swirl is from sizzix. <br />
The sentiment is from the Dollar bin at Michaels......I just <strong>love</strong> those dollar bins there....There's always something fun.<br />
Well enjoy the day and I hope you like the card.<br />

They are called Kusadama Balls...there are alot of tutorials on youtube that you can follow.<br />
<br />

This is a close up of one of the petals in the ball.<br />

I had to get ready for our school opening....School started so early this year august 18th.That just didnt seem fair....Summer was just to short!!!!!<br />
Then My Uncle who was the most dearest of Uncle's passed , and my family and I traveled to Montana from California( that was the longest drive...18 hours non stop), but his Services were beautiful and it was a wonderful celebration of his life.<br />
Then a friend of mine passed the same week.... of colon cancer, and that was especially hard for me because we shared the same illness. <br />
I will miss both of them so much<br />
Thennnn...... to top all of this off I had strep throat I had to deal with.<br />
Well now I am finally able to get back into the swing of things and I will start to post on a semi regular basis.<br />
I have quite a few things to share and I'm excited to share the projects that I have been working on. I will have a post for you tomorrow<br />

I hope that you all are enjoying your Summer wherever you are.<br />
Here in Newark, California it has been a great summer and the weather has been fantastic....just wish I had more time to play.<br />
Well we have a great color challenge for our last challenge and don't forget to included butterflies somewhere on your card...... I've decide to use this image which you can get <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/49842350/digital-stamp-bloom-grow-live"><span style="color: red;">Here</span></a>.....She is called <br />
Bloom Grow and Live.<br />
The stamp is colored with Copic makers and Triat ...The DP is from my stash of Japanese papers ....The punch is from Martha Stewart's line of punches<br />
Thank you for all the friendships and for all the fun ........ <br />
Thank you for all the wonderful comments you have left for me....each and every one will be cherished.<br />
Looking forward to the new and exciting inspirations from the new DT.<br />

This is what I wanted to try.....An Explosion box!!! Its a card and gift in one, I haven't put an sentiment on it yet ....haven't decide what I want to use. There are many tutorials on <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IYCUdE_Rtcc">YouTube</a> on how to make these boxes.<br />

<div>I had such a wonderful Easter Break ......I got to play ..play..and more play. So I made quite a few cards .... I will share them with you all in the coming days.</div><div>The first one I would like to share is an image from Sassy Cherly's she has so many cute and funny digital stamps.... you can get them at her Online store <a href="http://www.sassycheryls.com/store/"><span style="color: yellow;">Here</span></a> .Be sure to go and visit her. The paper I used was a combination of Cosmo Crickett...DCVW... and paper I have had for quite sometime...flowers and button were things I have in my stash and I don't recall from where.</div><div>I have been coloring with a mixture of Copics and Triart markers and I have to say that I am loving both brands. I like the Triart because it has a bullet point that I can get into small spaces and the colors blend really well ... they also blend with copics.Triart only has a limited number of colors but I really like them alot.</div></div>Jeanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07132364832220640005noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1831811826684736443.post-26514904275068473832010-04-06T00:01:00.000-07:002010-04-06T00:01:00.070-07:00<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dUQJ87t1ZGI/S7qym__DSUI/AAAAAAAAANw/K2ZWhdxWf-s/s1600/DSCF2142.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 320px; FLOAT: right; HEIGHT: 306px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5456870281593440578" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dUQJ87t1ZGI/S7qym__DSUI/AAAAAAAAANw/K2ZWhdxWf-s/s320/DSCF2142.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dUQJ87t1ZGI/S7qymRrlVHI/AAAAAAAAANo/bAC4QCzKeI4/s1600/DSCF2129.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 294px; FLOAT: right; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5456870269163754610" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dUQJ87t1ZGI/S7qymRrlVHI/AAAAAAAAANo/bAC4QCzKeI4/s320/DSCF2129.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:130%;color:#6633ff;">Michelle Perkett </span></div><div align="center"><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:130%;color:#6633ff;">Challenge #24</span></div><br /><br /><div align="left"></div><br /><br /><div align="left">This was the next challenge for the DT it was to use Pearls ...Lace and your go to colors. </div><br /><br /><div align="left">Well I came up with two different cards one with Paper Lace and the other with Real Lace ......

I did get a new Martha Stewart punch this past weekend...Its so cute with those little rabbits in the grass<br />and I also used one of her punches to make the flower This was lots of fun to do.You really have to be careful of the placement when you put it together ...The rabbits ears are a little off...Oh well it still looks cute ..And <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">I'm</span> sure the <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">recipient</span> will love it.<br />Have a wonderful day !!<br />Hugs JeanJeanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07132364832220640005noreply@blogger.com1
