Pet Swap = #1 of 3

I joined a pet swap for 3 spots since we have 3 differnt types of pets here at the house. We have the kitty, mentioned previously, the dog "addy" she is a jack russell terrier and she is just so A.D.D. hence her name and we have parrots. So my first card is for our parrots. I went to a stamp show and found this awesome feather paper, it has gold running through it, although you probably can't see it, it's there. I really like how this card came out and am hoping the kitty and the dog cards come out as well. By the way, the bird is a High Hopes Stamp and the words "be merry" are from Stampin' UP! set "Warm Words" (of course available to order.. just click above). Thanks for stopping by!!

Split Negative Swap

Another swap I belong to is the split negative technique swap. I do really like the color combination. Unfortunately me and the embossing ink, powder and gun don't get along to well. I recently purchased a Stampin' UP! embossing buddy, I am told they work miracles, that and some good embossing ink like versa mark (both by the way can be purchased in the above link) should do the trick next time I am heat embossing. I think the major problem here is the static.. major static, we even call the cat, "static kitty" cause she shocks you all the time. I hope you like it.

Red and ? Swap

My sister is hosting a red swap so I am participating. I used some cute paper I found at the "local" scrapbooking store. "Local" about 45 min away with limited product. Anyways, while there a while ago I found the cute dragonfly eyelets and knew I wanted them for this swap. I used the cute skunk from the Stampin' UP! set Pun Fun (which of course you could use the link above and order if you like). I do think it turned out fabulous if I say so myself.

Thank You Card!

As some of you may know, my dad spent about 2 weeks in hospital. One of the things he wanted to do was thank all the nurses and aide's for being so kind to him and he asked me to make him a card. Here it is. Its actual a 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 card in order to get all the names in there. I thought it was cute.

It's 5 O'clock Somewhere Swap

Here is the card for the 5 O'clock Somewhere swap. I love peach or mango martini's and I just love this little stamp... get swanky. Although my martini's usually come with a cherry not an olive, but the olive made for a good color combo. I cased the card from one I got in a swap I hostess, Alex was the gal's name, I did a bit more but the layout is similar.

Princess Emma

Ok, just had to share. My dad has been hounding me to put a bed in my craft room as a guest bed. I finally did, however, in the process, Emma, our beloved tortie, decided to make the bed her own, first by riding on the top of it as it was taken into the room, then doing the febreeze commercial on the mattress and last but not least taking over the bed. Today I found her snuggled between the pillows all nice and toasty. Crazy Puddin'
