Card for hubby :0)

Well, my husband is still on deployment and it has been a long one so far. I have been making him cards here and there and of course they have to be somewhat "guy cards".

 I made this yesterday with one of Dustin Pike's dragon images. The card is very simple and only has a bit of sparkle on it. I love this dragon though he is so darn cute :0)

Jesse

On 10-05-2011 at the age of 12 1/2 we lost our precious little girl Jesse.

We love you an will dearly miss you sweet girl.

R.I.P

Well, it's my b-day this month and 

I thought I celebrate it by making a card using this cute giraffe by Dustin Pike .

I hope you are all doing fine.

9/11 We will always remember

We will never forget....

We are fine...

I am sorry, I should have posted on here earlier telling my followers that we made it through the Hurricane named Irene. We had no power for about 36 hours but we made it fine. Thank you Crafty Girl for caring and asking about us. Currently I have company from Germany here and enjoying them for a little while.

YUMMY!!!!!!

Due to hurricane Irene, that is approaching our coast here in Virginia, I will be posting my challenge card early.

Be advised though that the challenge will not start until Sunday 28th.

This challenge is all about food. Grab a Dustin Pike image that has something to do with food. Dustin has plenty of those right HERE or you can use a freebie. Remember, your project HAS to include a Dustin Pike image or it will not participate in the drawing for a prize.

Here is what I made ...

I made the ice cream cones and used stardust pens and glaze and hope the picture shows this.

Button it Up !!

There is a new challenge in town and it's all about BUTTONS!!

They can be big, small, medium, or really itzy bitzy tiny. So grab some buttons and a Dustin Pike image and come up with a great card or other paper craft idea. Dustin also offers some great freebies every week all on his blog right HERE.

You could be the one winning a free image if you enter your
