Crop 4 the Cure

I recently participated in the Crop 4 the Cure 2012. I had a great time with Kelly and the Cosmic Girl's cure team. They sure know how to party! I participated last year and had an equally amazing time. I made 10 plus scrapbook layout at that event.
This year I focused on making cards. I'm fortunate to have some loyal customers that purchase cards for there hallmark moments. I am well stocked with over 40 new cards for them to enjoy!
I am so pleased with how they turned and and so are the customer. I have already sold 7 cards. I'll give you some close ups of my favorites.

Happy Krafting, Shaz

Well I took a few days off from the nook to do a few mommy type things. I mostly was a nurse to the kids that got the flue over the week-end and them having a turn after. When I had the flu I rested and finished a book. My husband was able to take the kids out for the day, since it was on the week-end. That gave me lots quiet witch is rare whn you have 4 healthy children!
I did have an order for a 10 thank you card to do as well.

Happy Krafting!

{12}thank you's in 1 hour

These great little card only took one hour for me to make.
The cards measure 4 X 4 inches square.
I used CTMH 12 inch stickers to decorate and using dark blue ink I stamped"Thanks so much".
The "Thanks so much" stamp was free with Verve stamps order.
How great is that... Everyone can use a thanks stamp!

See you soon,
Shaz

LOST {season 4}

I finished watching Season 4 a couple of weeks ago and just had to make a Thank-you card again. But I wanted to make a little gift too! Every LOST fan has noticed that abundant DARMA INITIATIVE supplies that magically fall from the sky, right? So I thought a DARMA INITIATIVE item ... like a darma covered a Ranch Dressing bottle, would be cool.{lol} Then, I thought, the gift should last longer than a few lunches.

Notebooks are always handy. So, I covered a composition books and created a card that looks like a plane ticket. The notebook had to have a hint of drama. So it has the title DARMA INITIATIVE and a darma-like symbol decorating the front. I cut these great letters with my MM SLICE cutter. I sponged green, yellow and beige ink on the edges to make the book, look like it's been dragged through the jungle for three months.

The plane ticket has the bright paper pieced Oceanic Airline Symbol on the front of the folder. The inside holds a simple blank ticket on which I wrote my thank you note. I did not sponge the ticket or the folder. I thought the contrast of the two pieces looks sharp when I tied the leather sting around them.

Well, I am waiting for season 5 to come out on DVD. Then Season 6 of LOST will start in Jan 2010.

Only one Days left on my Giveaway!

Shaz.

Thank you {LOST,season3}

Hey all, I am turning into a wee bit of a LOST groupie. In the evening I can be found watching LOST while I craft.

I just started watching by DVD thanks to a friend in my husband's office.

I like to make a LOST theme thanks you card every time I finish a season. I did not get a chance to photograph the card I made after season 2 but you may remember my first LOST card.

{You can click on the images to see the card up close.}

To make this car I used the Stair Step Fold Tutorial from

the Splitcoast stampers site. The details are great and I love that a video is available for the little details.

{material}

Balmy Breezes SU! stamps, Cream Green, and Brown CTMH card-stock, jewelry wire, brads, twine brown and green ink.

Have a great day.
