Inking It Up Crazy - "Fun Fold Card"

Hi There My Friends,
I'm still hanging in here, with this coughing, sniffling, sneezing, sinus aching, chest congested illness of mine, but I'm determined to keep it moving. I don't have that much energy so I end of stopping and starting a lot of things before it gets completed.
Today at Inking It Up Crazy, us girls had tons of fun with this challenge of creating a "Fun Fold" type of card. I've been wanting to try so many that I've seen out there. I was inspired by Creations with Christina when she showed how to do the "Diamond Fold" card. You can check her video out Here. I'm soo into the Holidays each year (both Thanksgiving & Christmas). No matter how I'm feeling, these holidays especially make me SMILE and just Warms My Heart. Here is my Fun Fold - Diamond Fold Card. It was so fun to make that I know I'll be doing a few more.

Head on over to Inking It Up Crazy to see what the rest of the Design Team has come up with. I'm sure you'll be inspired to create and venture into creating you own Fun Fold Card. For my first time I think this came out very pretty. At least I think so anyway. Of course I'm biased, but I love to hear your comments too. I will also be entering this project into Dilo En Espanol Challenge #4 - "Must use Twine" Smooches...

Gratitude/Thankful

Hi My Friends,
I'm getting back on track now with my crafting after that brutal of a test I took last week. Things are starting to level out. (**sn: don't know how long that will last, but I'll enjoy it while I can **). Anyhew, if you're knew here, let me say "Welcome New Friend". Feel free to come around more often. It's Design Team day over at Inking It Up Crazy and we are posting projects that represent the theme of  "Gratitude/Thankful". Here is a layout that I did to put my daughter's pictures in from last year's Thanksgiving. I really need to get on the ball with my scrapbooking (**sn: who doesn't? **) because after doing this one, I feel like I've lost my mojo a little. I was stuck just looking at the blank page for way too long before I finally starting doing something with it. Even during creating I was still stumped with what to do. Ugghh, anyhew it's my own fault. I used the Thanksgiving & Fancy Frames carts. I hope you like what I came up with. I'm a first time Mom and I'm Sooo Thankful for My Little Sunshine. I treat everyday as a precious moment with her.

I did a lot of distressing with T. Holtz inks to the layout page all around the sides. (forgive me for not remembering which ones). Head on over to Inking It Up Crazy and see what the rest of the ladies have come up with. There is definitely some creations there to inspire you. Smooches...

Inking It Up Crazy DT Day

Hello There My Friends, for
It's Design Team day with Inking It Up Crazy. We each had to create something for Halloween Treats. I did a little recycling and figured there is no reason to leave the little ones (babies) out of all the treats and eats fun. I decorated one of my daughter's old baby bottles. Why do I still have it, well... it's a sentimental value from her Uncle & god-daddy. Anyhew, here is a new treat bottle for those little pumpkins out there. Head on over to Inking It Up Crazy and see what the rest of the Team has created for inspiration for you.

Inking It Up Crazy DT - "Cricutless Challenge"

Hello My Friends,
It seems like forever since I've posted. I miss yall. Things have been a lot hectic around here lately, but that's called "LIFE", I guess. My Birthday month is over :-| , so now it's onto Me & DH Anniversary this Sunday. Whew, just one celebration after another. That's how I like it! Keeps me in good spirits.
Anyhew enough of my rambling... It's Design Team Day with Inking It Up Crazy. We were asked to do a "Cricutless" project. I can crank those out in a jiffy. After all it's what I used to do long before I knew anything about a cricut. Nice to know I'm not sooo handicapped by the Cricut and that I haven't forgotten from whence my original crafting came from...(lol). Here's my card that I sort of created to be a masculine card. DH says that it could certainly go for a male card. See.., that's just one of the reasons why I Love Him.

We hope you will join us on this challenge. Head on over to "Inking It Up Crazy" and get some inspiration from the rest of this Fabulous Team and get in on the fun. We'd love to see your "work of heart". Smooches...
p.s. I'm also entering this into the Birthday Sundaes challenge. "Birthday Card" (must use Ribbon)

Wild and Fabulous Blog Hop w/Inking It Up Crazy

Hello My Friends,
Happy Saturday. Welcome to "Scrapper in the Making" and the WILD AND FABULOUS Blog Hop!!! Today we are sharing some Super Fun and Super Girly projects with you!
If you've come from visiting Ana Maria @ Shorty Creations, you're on the right track. Thanks for hopping along!! If you're just visiting and would like to start from the beginning you want to go to http://www.inkingitupcrazy.blogspot.com [Inking It Up Crazy]. Make sure you check out each blog for some Great Ideas and some sweet blog candy.
For my Wild and Fabulous project I have created this Altered Composition book for my step-daughter. Previously in another post I showed another altered composition book I did for her and now her list of requests has gotton longer. She reads a lot and one day made a statement when she could find anything interesting to read, that she would write her own book. I figured I'd give her a start in writing down her thoughts in this Wild & Fabulous Journal.

My First Design Team Project - "Inking It Up Crazy" - Font/Phrase Project

Hello Friends,
Wow, looks like I'm on a roll with these multiple postings. Today is our First Design Team post over at Inking It Up Crazy. We were asked to create a Font Project or Font Phrase Project from any of the font cartridges. I chose to use an "oldie font cart" (try saying that super fast 3-4x's...lol) BASE CAMP. Here's is my project. I really like the how the colors came out with this.

As I create more DT projects on this team, I'll be experimenting with various inking techniques as much as I can, that I'm learning for myself from various crafters out there who are all sooo inspiring. At least that's the vibe I get when I'm "Inking It Up Crazy"...lol. Anyhew, there are some super cool other talented ladies also known as the I.U.C. DT Mates. Head on over to Inking It Up Crazy and see what other fabulous projects the Design Team came up with. Enjoy! Smooches...
Recipe:
Cart: Base Camp
Embellies: Bling, Michael's (Sheer Ribbon)
Paper: DCWV (Green Stack), Recollections
Tools: Perfect Pearls, SU Inks (Green Galor, Taken w/Teal, Old Olive), MS Ink (Metallics) SU Stamps (Valentine Defined), Versamark, White Embossing Powder
