Feeling Lucky

Today is Friends with Flair over at

Make sure to stop on by.

Today I am showing off a cut little 
from
Kelleigh Ratzlaff Designs.
I also used digital papers and elements to decorate the box 
before cutting it out on my Silhouette!

The papers are called 
and are on SALE today!


Do you see the little bee hanging around the flowers? It is from a past
Unity Kit of the Month...


The pink on came out pink on accident, but turned out too cute not to use!


My printer (Which I hate most of the time), doesn't tell me when the ink is low.
In fact, when the ink is "low", it stops printing in the color completely...
So when I went to print the blue papers from the kit, this is what printed:  


BUT, I wasn't about to let the ink I did use on this print go to waste...
So I cut it anyway and ended up with a very unique box!

Thanks for stopping by,


Happy Valentines Day!

I needed to make a quick card for my son to take to school this morning. 

I had already printed out these great digital papers from
Kelleigh Ratzlaff Designs 
called
so decided to make this simple card layout that I have used a lot lately.


I love the multi colored chevron don't you?!

The sentiment is from Unity Stamps: Everything Love

I wanted to share a cute little gift box I made using one of Kelleigh's Templates.

It's called CLOVER BOX.


I used the Emboss resist technique on this box. I first stamped the snowflakes in VersaMark and heat embossed clear powder on white cardstock.
I then used some Ranger inks (broken china & faded jeans) to add color.
Last, I stamped the Hullabalo stamp in broken china to give more texture to the background.


Stamps: Snowflake Kisses (Unity Stamp Co.)
Hullabablo (retired? Unity Stamp Co.)
Inks: VersaMark, Ranger Distress Ink
Other: Clear Embossing Powder


Here is the box all opened up. 
So cute and simple. 

Thanks for looking!

Friends with Flair Friday...

Yes, I have been a busy girl!

We have started harvest here on the farm. 
I end up making two meals a day for 6 men, myself, and the kids EVERY DAY...
and that isn't what makes me busy.
I then HAUL the meals out to the farm for everyone to eat at the field.

Here is a picture of a corn field we cut into:




It is time consuming.

I get to plan the meals,
shop for the meals, 
make the meals, 
haul the meals,
go home and clean up the meals...
AND, I do that twice a day!

Besides being busy with those duties, I also have normal duties with the house and kids!
I hate homework!

Anyway, here is a card I made recently:


I love the colors. 

I used stamps from Unity Stamp Co.:

The background was made with putting ink on my block, spritzing it with water, and stamping to the white card stock. I love how the colors mixed. I then took one of the ink colors and stamped the Unity stamp for a little more layering...

My Last Christmas card to share:

 Isn't Mr. Frosty cute? Mine is the one that is mounted on wood.  I made some with red buttons, and when I ran out of red, used blue! I inked around the snowman with a watercolor brush and distress ink to make him stand out a little.


I had some silver metallic paper left from a few years ago when I bought a big pack of metallics, and decided it was the perfect time to break it out of my stash!

Scalloped square was cut with Silhouette on watercolor paper.

Because this card has a snowman on it, it qualifies for the Unity Challenge this month (found here).

TIME for you to go check out all the other fabulous ladies participating this week with the Unity Fan Hop on the Unity Blog.

Friday With Unity

Well, it is finally November... 

So I guess it is late enough in the year to show some Christmas stuff!

Here is ONE of my Christmas cards for this year. 

I ended up running out of red ribbon so used this gold wired ribbon for one of these cards... Turns out, this made it so I ran out of the golden ribbon on the next set of Christmas cards!


I have 3 different ones for this year. Ten of each look. They are all the same sketch, but different colors and stamps... Today's has an Itty Bitty.  tinsel in a tangle {Jillibean Itty Bitty} which is on sale this weekend... Just sayin!

Made this card to send to my Grandmother who just had a birthday.  

Have a great day!

Clear It Out Tuesday and Unity Friday

I wanted to share this with all my Unity Peeps since almost all the stamps on it were Unity. Only the Father Sentiment, the kraft colored tickets and Coupons are not Unity...


And today is Unity's Friends with Flair, so make sure to go check out all who are participating HERE.


There is a new challenge over at the Clear It Out's Challenge Blog to use some trims on your projects.

I decided to make my husband a coupon book for his upcoming birthday. I used mailing envelopes for the pages and actually put my Bind It All to use to bind the book together! Bout time huh! Only had it for year!

Anyway, I used my spellbinder label 4 die to cut each end of the envelopes to make it easier to get the coupons out.

The coupons I made with a digital stamp. The stamping inside the book are from Unity Stamps as well as a clear stamp set for the little tickets.

Are you ready for A LOT of pictures???

Pattern Paper from a Wal-Mart pack, Cardstock is Paper Company(?) & Georgia Pacific.

Frame and Sentiment from Echo Park set I Adore You. Flourish is a MM rubon. 

Monsters and sentiment from Itty Bitty: Nicest Place To Be (Paper pieced and then colored with Copics). Die shape was cut with Silhouette and was Designed by Me!

A close up of the trims. Stamp Image is from Sweet & Sour Soup and the label die is Samantha Walker's label frame tag, cut on the Silhouette. Border is a Martha Stewart Punch.

Sentiment from Past Kit of the Month: Delightful Moments {KOM Dec 2009}.

This sentiment was also from Sweet & Sour Soup which I was kind of sad about. When purchasing this Fast Facebook Offer, I really thought these stamps were MUCH bigger than they turned out to be... BUT the sentiments are still great sentiments!

More of MARTHA'S TRIMS. Sentiment from another Past Kit of the Month: Take Time To Laugh {KOM Oct 2010}. Die cut was cut with Silhouette and was designed by me!

Large ticket is from Here's the Ticket, sentiment from Past Kit of the Month: A Pocket Full Of...{KOM July 2009}, and small tickets are a clear stamp I picked up at Joann's I think! 
 Punched border is from Stampin' Up!

Isn't that a great picture of the boys!?  Image from Little Me while the sentiment (Dear Father) is Stampin' Up!
 Die shape is Inverted Circle from Spellbinders.

I made about 12 of these tickets with the computer. I printed the ticket on colored paper and then the centers on white and paper pieced them together. 

Some were signed by Hunter and say things like "Ice Cream for Two" and "Any activity of your choice!" 

Colton even has a ticket that says "Playing Ball."
