Meet Jasper & Java

Jasper & Java have just arrived at our house on the weekend... they are 12 weeks old males & full of fun... we adopted them from our local animal rescue league after the family (one of my best scrapping friends) that adopted their mother was unable to care for them when their son was diagnosed with cancer. as you may notice they are mixed breed, their mother was pure black.. their marking are absolutely beautiful & pretty much symetrical, siamese blue point & tiger striped too... Java is the darker of the 2... we love them.. R ;)

Saturday Sketch Challenge 124

My First SU Promo ~ November Tutorial Giveaway ~ Serene Snowflakes Class to Go!!

November FREE tutorial giveaway ~~ SERENE SNOWFLAKES class to go!

Receive this "class to go" from me by email FREE with your $50+ order placed with me during the month of November, or you can also receive it if you order BOTH the SERENE SNOWFLAKES & FOUR THE SEASONS stamp sets directly from me or thru my SU web site.

If you haven't seen it before, a "One Sheet Wonder" is a technique using a single stamped sheet of cardstock cut into multiple pieces to create a quick -to-make set of cards, 3-D projects or scrapbook pages. This set features the FROSTY winter colors (kraft, not quite navy, very vanilla & forst white shimmer) that bring sparkle to the Christmas season, making a perfect set to use your holiday cards.

In this tutorial, you will learn how to make:

* Six Christmas Cards

* One Co-ordinating Matchbook Card Holder for the card set.

These projects feature the Serene Snowflakes & Four the Seasons stamp sets and the "One Sheet Wonder" Technique.

It's all the inspiration you need to make thoughtful cards to have on hand or to give as a gift and when you finish, make the projects again using a different color theme, technique or stamp set! R ;)

Glittering Forest

SU whisper white & mellow moss CS, petals-a-plenty texture folder, Top Note Sizzix diecut, Scenic Season stamp set, SU Mellow Moss ink, sponge dauber, versamark ink, heat & stick powder, heat gun, dazzling diamonds glitter, frost white shimmer paint & alcohol spritz.

Not sure if you can see the difference between the 2 photos, but the trees have dazzling diamonds glitter & the snowy field is 'shimmer paint & alcohol spritz'; in person, there is a more definate 'line' & shading between the whites.... kinda have to get the right angle... ;)

Finally!! I'm Back to Post

Computer down is just no fun, thankfully it wasn't too long & boy did I ever have alot of email to sift thru once the computer came home... R ;)
