Sadness yet Joy

Hey Peeps!

I know it has been a while but.....I have been spending a lot of time with my Dad.  He passed away yesterday after a 10 month battle with Cancer.  Sadness fills my heart because he was such a great man!  I have never met another man like him.  Kind, giving, and had so many friends!  Yet I have great joy that he is now in heaven with out Lord Jesus Christ.

Here is some of my favorite pictures of him:

I love you Dad!

Tall Tails!!!!

Hey Peeps!

I am back with more great Christmas Stamps from Flower Soft!  This week is "Tall Tails"!  These stamps are ADORABLE!  There are two sets - one set has Mouse and Robin and the other set (my personal favorite) is an Owl and Reindeer.  These Stamp Sets come with so many extras to fab up your card!  So as usual I couldn't do just one card - I did 3!  I made these cards 4"x4" - I think these would be great on gift bags and presents!

Oh, how I love Owls!  I used Pink Paislee papers, colored with Copic Markers, Ranger Dimensional Pearls, and Flower Soft Polar White.

I just LOVE this bird!  If you know me  - you know that I am not a fan of birds but he is just adorable!
Same supplies with exception of Authentique "Joyous" line of papers!

Last but not least my personal favorite!  The reindeer - I love Reindeer!  Again using the same supplies and Authentique "Joyous" line of papers!

Hope you enjoyed these cards!  I know I had a great time making them!  Don't forget to check out the Flower Soft Blog {here} and the Flower Soft Facebook Page {here}.

I am sure that you will want your very own Tall Tails Stamps!   You can purchase them at the Flower Soft {Katy Sue Designs} Online Store {here}.

Christmas Doors and Windows!

Hey Peeps!

Seems like forever since I did a post.....well it has been 2 weeks!   Apparently I forgot to post last week...oops!  Life has been hectic for me lately so this week there will be two posts!  So without further adieu....

New stamps!!!  Christmas Windows and Doors!!  These stamps are gorgeous!  Here is what I did:

The door is absolutely beautiful!  The stamp set comes with a lot of extras:  the wreath, trees, and sentiments.  You can do so much with them.  I colored with Copic Markers and used Authentique "Joyous" line of papers, and added the finishing touch with Flower Soft Sprinkles Christmas Green and Polar White.

Here is a close up:

Then I used the "Window" stamp set.  Again so many accessories that come in the stamp set to create BEAUTIFUL Christmas Windows.

Beautiful, huh?!  I colored the window with Copic Markers, used Authentique "Joyous" line of papers, and final touches with Flower Soft Christmas Green Sprinkles - berries are Ranger dimensional pearls.

So LOVE this card!   Here is a close up:
