Hi everyone!!!
It's been quite a while since my last post. Well my summer flew by! I had a fun summer filled with taking my teenager to a few anime conventions, family visits, and a MotoGP race in Indianapolis. I didn't do any crafting though. I did make this card back in June but I never posted it to my blog until now.
I am happy to say that I did do a scrapbook page tonight! It felt really good to do it too! However, I enjoy crafting so much more when my friends are here with me. Casey, Val, and MJ...I miss crafting with you (my Jedi crew.) I hope we will be able to get together and scrap soon! =D
First, I am going to share my scrapbook page. My son just brought home his school photos and I absolutely love them! The hoodie that he is wearing in the pic...he painted the hood part. The hoodie is based on a vocaloid character that he likes...called Matryoshka. Here is a Matryoshka video if any of you are interested.
I tend to like "simple" looking pages...that verge on (what I call) an alternative style. I used a bunch of different brands of papers to make this...so I won't even list them. If you are curious about a certain paper...leave me a comment and I will answer it for you. =D
This is the card that I made back in June. The image is from Tickled Pink Stamps.
Copics used: G12, G40, V20, V25, RV55, RV66, RV10, RV11, RV13, RV14
Flower border is by Paper Studio (sold at Hobby Lobby)
Well, I am so happy to finally post something on my blog...I've missed everyone! =D
I hope everyone had an amazing summer!

Haha...I've been going nuts wanting to make a Halloween or Fall card but I've stopped myself because I keep telling myself it is too early. But I couldn't wait any longer. I had this super adorable Tiddly Inks image already printed out and she was begging me to color her.
Well, it is late (as I worked on this all evening) and I am too tired to talk and provide links. I have a link to the Tiddly Inks shop in my previous post...if you need a link.
Here she is and thanks for looking!!!
Copics used: BV00, 01, 04, 13; YR04, 07, 09, 12; G0000, 00, 02, 05; E000, 00, 01, 11
Spica pens: clear, melon, mint, orange, black

Here is a card I just made today for the newest Tiddly Inks Challenge #56 called "Get an attitude - We are bad to the bone." You can find the challenge HERE. For some reason I've had Halloween on my mind a lot lately and I almost made this in to a Halloween card...but I talked myself out of it. So here is what I came up with:
p.s. the card has the white border around it...the black/red background is not part of the card.
Image is Heartbroke Happy by Tiddly Inks
Copics used: R20, 22, 24, 27 - C1, 3, 4, 5 - N2 - E00, 01, 11
Cricut October 31st cartridge (skull with bones)
Papers used DCWV and Creative Imaginations (chipboard ["Dressed to Kill"] and cherry rub-on are also Creative Imaginations)
Ribbon is from Michael's
Here is my motivational song for this card:
Thanks for checking out my card! ~Hugs~

I am so excited! My hubby finished box 1 of 2 of my new paper holders! I asked him to make a very basic (almost crate-like) box that would be set up like a file cabinet drawer. Although my hubby is a very talented wood-worker...wood is not cheap! Plus I kind of wanted it done quickly (and if hubby gets too detailed...that means I wait...sometimes months for it to be finished.) The total for the materials for the two paper holders came out to be about $45 and as you will see...it is very basic. I will probably eventually paint it...but right now I am just too excited to wait for the paint to dry. lol
I have the paper holder sitting on an old chest of drawers that I hide my scrappin' supplies in. Once both paper holders are complete they will hang over the ends of the chest of drawers...but that is ok because I have a little side table to the left that is the exact height of the chest of drawers. I originally wanted one super long paper holder but hubby suggested two so that they would be easier to move. He knows how often I re-arranged down in the Scrapcave.
Well, enough blabbering...here are some pics!
Thanks for checking out my new paper holder and reading about my paper addiction...lol!
Hope you all have a great day! ~Hugs~

Well, enough blabbering...here are some pics!
This is a view of how basic it is. Hubby did round all of the corners and make it nice and smooth. He also made a little shelf under it for those boxes to fit in. I believe he said the inside measured at 32 inches.
Here is a view of it almost full of papers. It is so much easier for me to find the papers I want now! And, since I am tall, it sits up high enough that I don't have to bend down to look through my papers!
Here is a full-view of the chest of drawers (and the little side shelf to the left) that it sits on. The empty clear boxes on the floor used to sit on top of the chest of drawers and there was so much wasted space in between each box. As you can see there is still room in my new paper holder (and I could have fit the rest of the two clear boxes items in there but I want to put them in the other paper holder once it is made.
On another note...for those of you who do not know me very well...I have a slight paper addiction! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE PAPER!!! This is the amount of paper that I have purchased in the past week and a half. This is not typical though...as I attended a scrapbook "yard sale" and bought of ton of awesome paper for a great deal and then I also attended a sale at a LSS that is going out of business and had everything 75% off!!! Can't beat those deals!!!
Thanks for checking out my new paper holder and reading about my paper addiction...lol!
Hope you all have a great day! ~Hugs~

Hi everyone!
I just wanted to share a card I made for the Tiddly Inks new challenge HERE. The challenge is to make a one layer card. You could use some embellies but I did my card 100% flat. lol Of course I used my Photoshop Elements 6 program and used several Designs by Sarah digital papers and elements...to view her store click HERE. The Tiddly image I am using is Carpenter Joe and you can find him in the shop HERE. I made this card for my dad for Father's Day. =D Whenever I think of my dad...I usually think of tools. lol
p.s. I colored Joe with Copics then scanned him in to my computer.
Sorry, this is such a quick post...but I have a lot to do today. I'm heading to my parent's house on Friday for a week...so I won't be posting to my blog for a while again. So now it is off to clean and pack and finish getting my things together for a scrapbook yard sale at my local scrapbook store. Busy, busy, busy... lol
Hope everyone has a great day!

Hi everyone!
Wow! It has been a long time since I have posted. It seems like as soon as the weather warmed up my life became more hectic. I haven't been making many cards lately, but I have gone back to scrapbooking! I have missed scrapping quite a bit! I am currently making a complete scrapbook for my neighbor who is graduating this week. She wanted a scrapbook to display her Senior year at her open house. So, I am off to the Scrapcave to make some more pages for her!
Well, here is the freebie that I have for you. This was drawn by hubby and the models for this image were my son and his BF. lol

| This is what I made with the image. |
I hope you all enjoy this cute digi! If you ever use this image, I would love to see what you make with it (just post a link to your image under my comments)!
Thanks for stopping by!
(If you are new to my blog check the freebies tab at the top for other freebies I have offered in the past. Also, if you like my freebies, I would love for you to become a follower.)

OK, so I posted this card quite a while ago and told you about Jason (my hubby) drawing it...well, now I have decided to give it to you as a freebie! YAY!!! Please let me know what you think about it! =D
That was my take on this digi. I would LOVE to see what you make with it! If you ever make something with it...please send me a link so I can check out your creation! This is such a fun image!
If you like the freebies I offer, I would love for you to follow my blog! =D I will try to get Jason to make us some more soon (his are WAY better than mine!) I'll have another video game digi available soon so keep on the look out!
Here is a little sentiment by me to go with it if you like...
Also, just so I don't confuse you...if it is a "Jedi freebie" I drew it or made it. If it is a "JTK ink" freebie either my hubby or my son made it or drew it.
Post from November 2010:
Here is my newest card! I absolutely love this digi stamp! For those of you who don't already know...my 15 year old son is OBSESSED with video games (and that is using the term lightly.)
I have had a hard time finding stamps, digital stamps, and Cricut images that relate to video games...so I asked my amazingly wonderful and talented husband to draw some for me. The man has some mad skills!
Here is a pic from last week of my son in action! lol
