Happy Birthday Mr. Rossdanson

Quick post gotta a lot to do before Legoland Trip. Still haven't packed and hubby is home... YEY! whatta a great way to kick off our memorial weekend.

Here's the card I made for my daughters teacher....I actually took the picture yesterday after I had applied the glossy accent liquid. It wasn't dry when I took the picture so it kinda looks weird. heheheh

here's the inside, again I took the picture yesterday so this one doesn't have the beige flower I added to cover the flourish ends hahahaha. 

Hope it's not too feminine... hehehehe....

Have a great Memorial weekend all....

TSRD RIce is nice but you're the best....

I love this stamp set from TSRD. I was once a designer for them but lots of changes and I thank them for letting me be a part of it all. I love love this card I made a while back, when I first got it.. here's the old card.

 I like the layout of the card so I decided to kinda make a better one and here is what I came up with...

here's the inside...

I've been using my 7Gypsies Hudson Valley Scrapbook pack. I love the color combo they have and you can go wrong when you use a set pack for any projects hahahaha. I will post another one tomorrow with the same stamp set. It's my daughters teachers bday tomorrow so I'm in the process of making him a card and I used this TSRD set. 

Have  a blessed Thursday....

Treat Box....

I made this treat box for my daughters school friend, Tyler. He's so cute and adorable and just a super sweetheart. I got the image from Issa who was my RAK partner last May. And immediately when I saw this image I knew I had to make Tyler something. heheheh It really looks like him. He has the same curly kinky black hair. Lovely eyes and just too cute. I had wrap the box as if I was wrapping a book and made a cover inside. Anywhoots I will post the measurements as soon as I get it all together. hahahah I was writing it on a whole bunch of scrap paper around me when I made it. Okie dokie. Here' it is...

I put jelly sticks inside the box. I love them jelly sticks... It's one of those Lychee jellys... hehehe. Okie dokie Hope you all have a blessed day.

Happy Birthday Card.

Hello everyone... How's everyone doin? I'm just posting my previous drafts. I still haven't blurf as much as I really want to. Here's what I came up with one of the image I got from Ilissa... 

I love it. Its so cute. Since it was a stamped image already I couldn't do any embossing on the outline so I just used some gloss accent for the wings to give it shine.... hehehe. Here's the inside part of it. 

So today I had to take my little girl to have her tb test checked... Negative of course. It was so horrible when we took her last saturday... She had to get the TB test and blood draw that day... The med assistant poked her 3 times before she got any blood from her.... SUCKS big time... I mean I as a nurse gives shots with WAY bigger needles but I'm not a phlebotomist so I'm not certified to do it but DARN this girl poked my daughter 2x before she got any blood and while the needle wasn't pickin' up any blood she was goin' around the area where she poked trying to find a vein. Ayaya I tell you.... I nearly cried looking at my daughter and how painful it was for her... She said, " But mommy it really hurts!" with her tears fallin' down like a faucet... whew thank god I got that out... hahahaha
To make up for it, I guess, we all had a wonderful and blessed Saturday @ the beach... and it was as if she never went through that painful process. hahahaha

Okie dokie... that's it for now. I shall try to post as daily as possible since I have been crafting a bit more every night now... whooo hooo I just gotta get back to blurfing...


God bless and Happy MONDAY!!!!!!!!!!!

April RAK from Ilissa

Aloha from Ilissa.... She was my RAK partner last month and here's what she had for me...

On one of the images she shared with me was this cutie image up on the card. I'm in the process of finishing a card with the same image. So I shall post asap... eheheh. 

Have a good day.

Little C's Challenge 2+ layering.....

Came to join the Little C's Challenge this week. I really love all the stamps I got from Little C's and thought I'd enter this one on this weeks challenge. I had so much fun making this card, the image was too cute but I sure wish I could color WAY better than I can actually color. I would really love to learn shadowing and better techniques on how to color without making any patterns and what sorts. hahahaha.

Hope you all had a great and blessed weekend.

mini card box....

Hope everyone had a great Mother's day weekend. I had one of the surprise filled day last weekend. My husband rarely comes home lately since the military pretty much wants to keep him away from his family hahahahaaha. j/k he just has to. So I was not really expecting to see him for mothers day. BUT... Yes first surprise.... got a text from him asking me to give him a hug at that second he texted me but here goes my cell requiring deletion of old messages hahahaha so it kinda took awhile for me to read my text and before I had finished I heard the door knob turning behind me and there he was.... My HuneeBoo was home... 2nd surprise.... usually he comes home for several hours ONLY..... so his second surprise was he was spending the night with us... aaaahahhhhhh could you imagine how happier I got after that news... hahahahahaha... Then our 3rd surprise was kinda ruined cause I had to attend my aunts bday party and mothers day bash so I was not home to receive my beautiful Bouquet of PINKS.... BUT I was super happy to see them waiting for me on our front door....  

moving on to the artsie part..

Here's what I came up with during one of my free times and crafty...

Princess B Meshon G....

Hello everyone. ahahaha I don't even know if anyone reads this blog anymore. hahaha. Anyway it's an artsie escape so here I go... I made this altered notepad for one of my bcrew sister... Meshon... I used my Blossoms from CTMH and they are so lovely... always love the flowers... Anywhoots. I shall create again sometime soon. Oh ya I also one of my heidi swapp chippy letters. inked it up and embossed then voila pretty letter M... hhehehehe. I kinda fall off the wagon on bloggin and blurfin sometimes cause I don't have any space in the house for my artsie haven. So I tend to fall off whenever I see I can't even craft the way I really used to cause I can't make a darn mess in the living room hahahaha. Anyway. till next post...

Hard Candy....

Hey everyone. Hope everyone's having a great week so far. Today my kids got a hold of my moms hard candies in her purse. And what I most fear with hard candies of course is choking. And YES my daughter pretty much almost choked on the damn hardened NIPS. Gosh darn it I was crafting on the computer table and behind me is where she sits to watch Hannah Montana and she stood up and said. "Mom it's  stuck!" So I told her stop talking and patted her back and there she gagged and nearly threw up along with the candy. Whew Thank god she didn't really really choke. So that's that with the damn hard candy. hehehe what a scare huh.
       So I have been struggling with this super sickness I've acquired last month. A terrible cough and cold but almost over thank god. I have been trying to craft in my little space by the computer table but it gets really hard with the kids around. So I have been just procrastinating and crafting when I can. Here's what I've been up to.
I've made a page for the close friends I've made at my old job... CV.. and there we were labeled as Biatches cause they were jealous of course hehehehe. And of course little did they know, we were the nicest ones.. lol.. And when they see us all girls go out they say we are goin on a lesbo festival... nothing against them but it's just really funny how ignorant some people think, ya know. Anywho here's the page...

I miss creating so much even if I have to move things everytime I create I would everyday hehehehe. So hope the page is kinda nice to look at. I haven't done a page in awhile so.. hehehehe.

Have a blessed hump day.......

My first card

This was what I came up with after so long of not making a card. Obviously I didn't want it to be the welcome back card hehehehe. Anywhoots just needed to post it so it doesn't get stuck in the pc. hehehe
So earlier today was my cuzin's birthday bash at their house and he requested for Sushies and SPAM MUSUBIS whoot whoot... I had so much fun making them and made some Salmon and Tako Poke Jacksters style....hehehe Here's what I made....

Jacksters style of Hawaiian POKE... I made my own koz I don't really like the sea salt and the wasabi mix in the poke. I like it plain and simple Salmon, Tako (Octopus), Seaweed salad, and masago to replace the salt... It's salty so I thought I'd use that and plus  it's yummy with rice... =D

Now here's my Spam Musubis... I probably made 60 or even 70 pieces of these. I can't believe how much people really love these. My cuzin the birthday boy was grabbing them each time I finished one so I felt like I wasn't making any progress with making them hehehehe. I had to start using two omusubi makers hehehehe. It was fun though. SPAMerificly delish........

Okie dokie. Huneeboo is home today and back tomorrow... So I will try to craft as soon as everyone is off to bed. =D

Happy card for Michelle U.

Hello everyone. so today I had some time to craft and boy was I happy. My mother took the kids to the play place @ the mall so got some time to clean and craft at the same time hehehehe. It was my blog sisters birthday almost 2 weeks ago. I had missed it.... So here I am using my NEW CTMH acrylic sets that came with my kit.. whoo hooo Happy birthday to all the March Babies... ooohhh oh I'm one of them heheheheh. Ok so here's the card I came up with. Still kinda rusty but hope I gave it justice.. hehehehe

Yikes I forgot ... Stamp is copyright of CTMH of course.

It is called Happy Forever.... It's the cutest.

I am organizing the CTMH Idea books to go out to my sisters to share and hopefully some business hehehehe. *wink wink* Nah if not it's alright too. I love these books as a artsie fartsie girl so I'm sure everyone loves it too. It's like my Cosmo mag. whenever I sit on thrown... hahahahaha
I'm just so excited. I opened the online store today so you can so directly go to the site when you click on the button on the left. And then place your order through MOI...  =-D  I really want this to go well cause it's what I've been wanting to do for awhile now. I was thinking of starting a store like my big sis Jen Y. but I would rather help her out with buying from her and sportin' her store here @ the pink artsie world hehehehe I love everything in her store. So glad she's the owner again. Little C's baybee..... hehehehe So I think I get my order tomorrow... I ordered Nurse Nora stamp and I think Imma make a card when I get some free time, whenever that is... hehehehe. My Huneeboo is coming home tonight so Yipee.... I love seeing him after his long week of training. Oh and I get to go out with my Super fun friends tonight to watch CLash of the Titans... hopefully it's good. Anywhoots it's way too much I shall blog again tomorrow... hehehehehe

Have a blessed weekend all .... and a Happy GOOD Friday ....

New Close to my heart Consultant.....

I am now officially an Independent consultant for CTMH. whooo hoooo... I'm so excited. I still have to go through the classes and how tos online. I can't wait though. I've loved CTMH for so long and actually wanted to become a Stampin Up Demonstrator but I wanna start small then of course maybe do Stampin up later. Both are one of the best in the artsie world. Here's what they sent me in the Consultant kit....

I can't wait to use them. I have so many things in mind it's like an artsie market in my head.. hehehehe. I'm still in the process of fixing my own space in the little apartment. But I will surely keep blogging everyday and crafting everyday. aaaaahhhhh I'm so excited...... I will post some great creations later on. I had done a few while I wasn't bloggin last year. So anywhoots. just wanted to share the great exciting news.

12X12 HK Scrapbook Paper....

As much as I would love to keep it, I think it's going to go into the RAK pile. I was so excited when I bought this book. Although it only came with 2 design papers. We all love Hello Kitty so I didn't hesitate with buying. hehehehe. But unfortunately I would rather give it as a RAK and share my findings hehehehe. I got it from AAAHHHs, ya the we sell almost everything but it's all expensive store.. lol. I've been going to that store since I was 14 and it just gets bigger and bigger every year that passes... or every year I age... hahahaha. Anywhoots I will post a blog candy sometime this week... Hopefully I get a bunch of people to start browsin' around my pink artsie blog so we can play with LOTS of creative souls.....

The story of US....

So Yey... I'm back to blurfin and stampin and scrappin, sending raks, leaving comments, everything artsie... I can't believe it. I have been the busiest mother bee of them all. I HAD been working full time as a nurse and a full time mommy as well. In the middle of being the busy bee.... My husband is now an all american MARINE... so proud of him. I am so happy to be his wife and his best friend and vise versa. I actually expected myself to do better in the artsie world while he was in training but I was more in the low key than high. Through the road I became closer to my super co-workers, as they branded us, The B CREW... Being that they think we're such Biatches of them all. Little did they know we are the only nice people in the building hehehehehehe. My life without srapping was not great. Though I have gained and found great friends, I was missing and had MISSED WAY MUCH...So I quit my full time job to be home more with the kiddies. Some of you are probably thinking WTH quit so you can scrap more? are you nuts? YES I AM....But for my defense I actually have plentyful of reasons for quitting... lmao. I miss leaving comments, blogging daily, creating, sharing, raking, everything that an artsie girl would do. Life without scrapping is not the life I would live.  So.... Anywhoots I am back now, in my safe artsie haven.... Just need to make space so I can have a place I can call MY tiny craft room... hehehehe.

The story of US.... I had gotten a mini album kit from a dear friend Marie from Aloha and Mabuhay.... I can't believe how beautiful and cheap she was selling her kits. But anywhoots... I HAD TO make this one my come back creation. I mean Marie gave this to me months ago, when my husband started training. And also thanks so much Marie for giving me heads up with the military lifestyle... hehehehehe. Okie dokie... on with the Mini....
