Carol's corner

I'm still here. It's 12:30 am and I sit here on my sofa waiting for C to get out...... LOL !!! I've done the super HUGE dinner, didn't work, did the spicy food, didn't work, walk till I want to fall on my face, nope again... She's so active that she keeps me awake. I keep telling her that if she gets out, she'll have a TON more room to move around in...well maybe not a ton since I can't get G and E out of my bed, but she'll have more anyway. Other stuff...I was at my LSS on Sunday for our monthly Stampapalooza . This month our "theme" was fall. I half cheated and did a card that I've had floating in my head forever now. As usual I sat there and whipped out my cards as everyone else was chatting and having coffee. Sigh......like it's gonna get any better with a third tossed into the mix? I'll snap some shots of the card I did as well as some of the other ladies and credit those who made them of course. It's the least

I am a crafter !!! LOL !!! This is one of two designs for Christmas. The cardstock is Whisper White, Purely Pomegranate, Wild Wasabi and Pretty in Pink. Stamp set is from the Holiday Mini and the inks are Wild Wasabi and Purely Pomegranate again. I love the look of the envelope to match so I stamped on the one side and I used the tiny little green flower on the back of the envelope too just for a more uniform look. I used the ticket corner punch that I finally got after lusting after it FOREVER!!!!! I'm happy I have it now cause I just love the way it finishes the corners in a way that sticks out more to me than rounding with the corner rounder. The next one is also fun for me, used two different colours of Blue ink, both from the new In Colours, Soft Sky and Bayou Blue. The cardstock is Whisper White and Soft Sky. Again I used the same stamps on the envelope. This set is Snowflake Spot from the regular catty. I'm waiting on an order of glitter so once it arrives, I'l

New cards to share with you...BUT it has been rainy and gloomy all day and I can't get a good shot of any of them...... ARGH !!!!! There's always a catch huh? One is a thanksgiving card that I made for my mil, but then decided to keep instead (BAD DIL !) and two different Christmas designs.... OMG I'm having a blast! I was at my bestests house yesterday delivering some stuff for her that she ordered and I got to play with her Simply Sent - Simple Delights kit, OMG I LOVE LOVE LOVE these kits! So nice to sit down and whip out a card in five minutes with no cutting involved. Read instructions, gather pre-cut materials, stamp then assemble! Goodness knows I will be getting more of these as gifts and maybe even door prizes. I'll also pimp them for the starter cardmaker . Can't go wrong when it's all already assembled for ya. K, tomorrow for sure come rain or shine, I'll get the pics taken and the cards uploaded with deets on the sets and colours. I P

Craft that is....... LOL !!! I make cards when I've got time, but then I give them out before I can snap shots of them........BAD ME!!! My problem is that I've only got like 20 minutes to make that thank you card for the teacher then I run down and hand it over and on my way back I smack myself in shame that yet again I've forgotten to take a pic and post it up. Maybe today, when I'm done baking my pumpkin pie from scratch, I'll make some stuff up and actually take some pictures of them, if not, I'll fall back on some older stuff, like from the Regional's and stuff that I've made for the swaps at Cherished. On a side note, from what I've seen online, WCMD #2 was a success. Most people who joined in the fun had a ton of it. Maybe next year when I'm not so hugely pregnant and my Stampin ' Up! business is up off the ground floor. K, Ta for now, gotta start getting the peel off the cooling pumpkin in my oven.
