Knowing What You Like....

 If you're like me you probably surf the web a lot looking for new ideas and seeing what everyone else is doing out there....A few weeks ago I came across this card made by one of my friends, and fellow CTMH consultant who I met at Convention last year.  Did you know she lives just a few miles down the road....how lucky for me.  Now, Tamytha and I have kept in touch a bit since convention, especially since we've both only been consultants for a little over 2 years, lots in common, too.  Here's Tamytha Jenkins' card   

and here's her link, check out all of her work....she's amazingly talented.    Above and below is my spin of her fantastic creation.  Thanks again Tamytha for giving me the privilege to lift your idea   :)

 All products are Close To My Heart, the bird stamp is paper pieced using the up coming June 2012 Stamp of the Month, also used was the My Acrylix D-size stamp set that is included in the Circut Art Philosophy Collection Z1686.

Stella Paper Packet X7147B, Neutral assortments Baker's Twine Z1701; red assortment buttons Z1369, Cocoa embossing powder Z1246.

Altered project for Card's Plus Club this weekend.  Super quick post tonight.....really tired from work today.

 CTMH stamp set used C1498 "Country Life".  Great gift idea, even better filled with chocolate....

CTMH Inks used Cocoa and Brown Bag......and CTMH Chocolate striped ribbon, and miscellaneous ribbon.  Container is from the Dollar Tree, you guessed it for a BUCK..... Have a great evening.

Card Plus Club Preview One

It's that time again, the February Card's Plus Club is this weekend.  Here is a preview of one of the cards we will be making.

 

I really love how this patchwork card came out.  Inside is a packet of flower seeds for that special friend.  A great way to show appreciation and how they can remember your expression with wonderful blooms of flowers.  Check back to see more in the upcoming days.

 What I love about the weekends.  Spending time in my garden....

 

Planting a herb garden for the porch....

 

 Admiring Kimber and how she views this great big world......

  

Laughing while Kimber hunts lizards.....

Watching Reese think about how she's going to catch that squirrel on the fence....

Listening to the buzz of the bees as they fly through the Carolina Jasmine.....

 

Astounded by the determination of my girls to play with the birds

 

 

    

The peaceful sounds of birds singing.....I hope you had a great weekend, too.
