Visions of Flowers

We've had a few nice days that have me dreaming about a trip to the local greenhouse. I love greenhouses, so many flowers, so many ideas! Now if only I could make my plants look as good as theirs do, lol.

Recently I put in a number of orders from my favourite stores and I've been busy oohing and ahhing! So many stamps, where to start. But today I grabbed this Gerbera Daises set from Flourishes and coloured it in with copics. I've been struggling with a good purple combination but I think this one was a success. Once the flowers were coloured I cut out the whole bunch, yes, it took me a looooong time! But no pain no gain. I mounted the flowers onto the oval cutout and the rest is self explanatory.



Thanks for stopping by!

Pearl Overload

What a beautiful summer day again, right now the kids are playing outside with the sprinkler and I get to stare at my garden that finally received a little TLC again. It's been a busy week and it was crying for some attention! I knew when Stampin' Up! started carrying the pearls and rhinestones in sheets I would be in trouble, lol. Those things are so easy to go nuts with! This project took me forever to complete, I started last night and finished this morning. Not that it I was working on it the entire time, we did typical summer stuff in between. I always save the cardboard that comes with our designer paper for things just like this. I glued the soft suede cardstock to the front and back of a square piece of the cardboard and then ran it through my Bigshot with a scallop circle die. To give it some dimension I sponged the edges in Soft Suede. The Baja Breeze flower is made with 3 flowers from our new paper flowers pack, I made them just like in my last post. The Not Quite Na...

Shhhhhh! Can you Hear it?

If you listen really carefully you might just hear might husband groaning in the background! Why you might ask? Because I made a few Christmas cards, lol. Every year I go through an early Christmas mood and every year you see my DH shaking his head at me, hehe. As most of you know we were on holidays last week and of course when you get back you have so much to catch up on, and then to top it off I've lost my mojo, aaaack! All these pretty stamps and no motivation, and not to mention that I EXPEDITED my new Holiday Mini pre-order and it should be here tomorrow. And it's mostly Christmas stuff that will be in that brown box, wohoo! I think my husband might want to take up fishing or something. :D But, no fear! I have a plan of attack for my getting my mojo back. I'm going to stamp it back, yup I will be stamping today, all day and I won't feel bad about it. So if you happen to drop by today I will warn you already that there will be dishes in the sink and the kids "...

Blog awards!

This is my second post for today, scroll down for my first one. I recently received two blog awards, thank you so much! I love admiring all the blogs out there and I'm so flattered that someone likes my blog! My first award comes from Dana Newsom , be sure to check out her wonderful blog! With this award I'm given the chance to tell you three things about myself and pass this award on to 5 other bloggers. 1. I love paper crafting (obviously, hehe). I started paper crafting about 11 years ago and haven't looked back since. I became a demo a few years ago because I love to teach women how they can use their creative side! And as my Blog name suggests, it really is my therapy, I won't say it's cheaper than therapy but we'll let my husband think it is... 2. I'm a bit of a perfectionist, ok I admit, I'm just plain picky. It's probably best if most if my friends and family don't realize just how picky I can be! It drives my darling Husband crazy some d...
