Flowers and Field Cards

Make up Days 2 

12/30-12/31/2020 Wednesday and Thursday

These 2 cards use the same cardstock and some Designer Series Paper (DSP) This paper will be a choice for a SAB item with a 50.00 purchase, I used the same card stock and DSP on these 2 cards and the Stamp Set Best  Year along with the dies Tasteful Labels. Add a little ribbon and some sequins and your done. 

If you haven't figured it out I LOVE this Pattern paper... 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So cute right?! 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I think this is a fantastic Idea to do, you can get tons of cards from a pack of DSP.  Add a little wording and some embellishments and you done! 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Okay so I am all caught up with my posts.  I'm taking the rest of the night of as it's New Year's Eve but it is also my 20th Anniversary and time to spend with the hubby.

Turkey on the Tree

Make up day 12/25- Christmas 2020

Merry Christmas to you and yours I know it's a little late, but it's still 2020 and I'm hoping you are doing well. 

My wish for 2021 is for EVERYONE to be KIND!!!!! it is FREE it doesn't cost anything to be kind to people!  Remember Everyone is going through something, reminds me of a time, awhile ago,  I was in Publix (one of the Main Grocery Stores here) with one of my sisters! I was behind her, and there was an older lady behind me, and I guess she was talking to me but I did not know this as I could not hear her. I didn't even know anything was up until my sister turned her head and bent around to speak to the woman behind me. She said, she isn't ignoring you she doesn't hear you! the woman replied! Well she doesn't LOOK deaf!  Hmmmm, What the heck does DEAF LOOK LIKE??? 

I often get that look, when I speak to someone that I am hearing impaired, I do not know what you are saying, YES I read lips very well, however if a person doesn't move lips or annunciate well the words they are saying it's a drop in the bucket for me as to what the heck they are saying, but people seem to believe that I can speak, I'm not deaf.  But the truth is I was not born Deaf, but gone deaf! Yes Meiner's has taken some as well, but it is a hereditary thing in the beginning. So Please remember to be kind when it's possible! 

IT"S FREE to be nice, even when people aren't nice. (SMILE) tell them their hair looks nice! and Laugh on the inside!!!!! 

Okay so No card today, just a little hope and JOY for all of us. And a little story about this little Turkey on my tree! Several years ago my little niece, actually she is my great niece, but who uses that fraze anymore. She's just my niece and I'm Aunt Jill.

She was visiting my sister a few years ago, and I was also there to visit, I'm not sure of the time, but I think it was during scallop season, Summer time she was making a project, It was turkeys! So maybe it was before Thanksgiving. But anyways, she made me this turkey and told me that it was for my Christmas Tree. So it has a place on my tree every year since then.

This year she made ornaments with glitter I think it was, I saw a post and told her mom to tell her I needed one to go with the turkey on my tree. Maybe I will get one.. We will see, but this Christmas was a bit Crazy (her Grammy, my sister fell down the stairs Christmas Eve, and Broke her Elbow, arm and Shoulder) She just got home today from surgery a few days ago. 

Here's her Turkey! 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There is the Turkey on the Tree hope it gives you a giggle.... I will be back in a little bit to catch up on this week. HUGS!!!!!! 

BJAM

Make up Day 12/24

So these are a  little more of my gifts... I found the letters at Target Dollar spot, however I NEVER could find a Y! So sadly She did not get one from me.  

And in my true FLOWER POWER FASHION, I decorated these puppies up for year person. Using first idea of Colors they like or flowers etc., but in this case. I used colors they have in there office/stamping spaces... I used mine for office colors... 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I used the Medium Daisy Punch on these,,, and some Rhinestones to match. A couple of the ribbons are retired from last year SAB, but for my friends gifts it's okay because I needed matching colors.. 

 

Christmas Gifts for the girls!

Make up day! 12/23

Needless to say if you red make up day  12/22 you know this was not a GREAT DAY for me... So lets move on to the project... 

I decided to make several things for my BJAMY group, me being the J in the group not all things I made for myself. So they will only be 4 of these items here. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

One of the girls called these Lunch Pails but I'm not sure really what they are for. I used them a long time ago for Cards Kits, and some ladies turned them into carry all for the make and take items when they came to classes with me. They held scissors, adhesive, whatever they put in them, but a few months back i was clearing the clutter of the closet and said I should make these for the girls for Christmas so the Idea began, of who gets what color and item on there Tin. 

So the one on the left was for the A in the group and she leaves on the beach and has the vibe going on... the one on the right, she LOVES green, that was my starting point. However from there I was lost! Other than I knew,  I didn't want to make them Christmas them, I LOVE CHRISTMAS, but I wanted them to be year round, So lets add in the set HEY GIRLFRIEND, coming next month! I have had a ball with it. That's B on the RIGHT~ 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sooooooo, nope no Flamingo paper like this coming, but this CHICK is all about the Flamingos!!! So I had to add a little contraband (bad word) This is M in the group. 

I also failed to tell you that the backs are all solid one sheet of paper fronts are the half and half.. there is ribbon around each front and back edge too. No photos though.. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

At this point I was feeling badly for the one girl would feel like odd man/woman out! So I made her a selfie too so if she wants to she can change it! 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Okay, so this one is the Y in our group she also LOVES PURPLE!, but I used new DSP coming for her because, she won the ice cream set at ON STAGE, so it has 2 fold meaning for her... 

She didn't get her package till last Saturday because of all this delay crap with shipping everywhere so she didn't have my gifts the night we did BJAMY CHRISTMAS, I actually got dizzy our FACETIME, and had to take my meds and call hubs who stayed in the area because he had a feeling. 

So,  I really didn't get much time to talk to her and when she did get it I wasn't feeling up to FT. so she opened when she got and let me know how much she LOVED it.. 

They all LOVED the stuff I sent and made... Thank goodness.... Okay that is all for Wednesday make up! 

 

Never Ends!~

Make up Day 12/22 Tuesday

I just have to say, the best plans never seem to fail me when my Meiner's takes hold. Long story short I was at the hairdresser on 12/21 and got sink in middle of the hair coloring, oh JOY! NOT! needless to say the rest of the week seemed to follow me in GLOOM and PUKE! Truth! Tuesday I missed Nail appointment, rested in bed and that evening I decided I was okay not great so I had hubs drive me to the BJAMY CHRISTMAS... Well I got a horrible case of Dizzy and home I was sent! 

Wednesday more bed and not well. but Hubs decided a few weeks ago we needed to have eyeglass exams this day! I at the time told him he was CRAZY on December 23, but in good faith I got up showered and as I was coming out of bedroom I said, I don't think this is a good idea. So they tag teamed us in the office as we wear masks and I read lips its hard! so switch chairs back and forth. I began to have what I call small swirly! Needless to say I told doc, we need to hurry this along I do not feel well. 

They dilate my eyes say 5 mins leave room. I carry puke bags and dizzy pills with me. Needless to say I told them!  I say to hubs get me a puke bag now, close the door! And I was sick as can be, doctor comes in after does eye exam and I excuse myself to he restroom which is outside in waiting area. Hubs was waiting for me outside restroom to help me to the car. He informed me they all were scared I had COVID -19 OF JOY! NOT!!!!! He explained to them it is my Meiner's Disease and was dizzy which makes me sick. In the car on way home I was kind of okay but as soon as we pulled in I got seatbelt off an one foot out the door and again was sick, nothing like a show for the neighbors!!! Needless to say I have to learn to take the good days and Live with the bad, rest of week was about the same....  So needless to say when I was going to be home from hairdresser I was going to do my posting. 

But as you can see it is now. 12/29 and able to get to it today but it is a PJ's kinda day and doing my best.. I actually had to go back to bed this morning as the dizzy was coming back. 

So this post today is of a cute little set that is coming! January 5th. SNAIL MAIL... I made these little treats that my hubs ended up having to take to them as I was too sick. 

They are just little candy chocolate kisses inside of the Curvy treat die and I added a tag, some DSP and the SNAIL of course. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So cute and fun, I have designed some very cute cards, using this set. I just used marker to to the nailed it! I left off the S it actually says You Snailed it! 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So before anyone asks me.. I colored the snail bod with the regular Blush marker, there is no Blend for it. But here is my tip to you... USE A LIGHT HAND and CIRCLES TO COLOR. I then added wink of stella to give it the snail vibe of SLIME.... The other Shell is in Bermuda Bay Blends... 

Tuesdays Post!

Will be delayed till later in the day.. I'm having some difficulty. Hang in there it's coming.. Explain later when I post the real post...

Cards for Dana

12/21- Monday 

Hello! We've made it to Christmas week! 

These cards are cards I made for my groomer, I've shared things for her before.  She requested Dog birthday cards this time.. 

I used the Pampered Pets set and the matching DSP, color are from papers and most of the cards came from one sheet of DSP i got the dogs from and then went from there and designed the 4 cards using all the dogs that were whole on the page. 

Have a great day and enjoy the cards! 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here are the 4 cards together and the next will be two and two.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Okay that's all I have for today...  Enjoy!

We made it, goodness another week and it's Christmas!!

Today's card is all just for fun and really probably won't be understood by many, but the ones it's meant to, but I wanted to share as it's a cute card!  I already tested it with 2 husbands and both got it!! 

So you know I talk about my group and how close we are. if we didn't already have a name I'd say we were the Ya Ya Sisterhood...

And we all met through the LOVE OF STAMPIN' UP! Years ago.... 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So the Ladies are all dressed in our favorite colors! And I, don't wear a dress often, don't think many of do but them more than me, but it was the point of the card was the LOVE the BESTIES!!!! 

Couple more shots.. 

This set will be available in January! 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Once I stamped all the girls there was not much room for anything else, so that's the reason for the Besties that way and that is be with the sign on my knees!!!!
