Crafting Vicky

I want to start out with wishing you all a wonderful Easter!!!  I hope that you will be surrounded with your loved ones. I shared with you last time my new passion :)  it really is fun to glue stuff together!!!!  You should join in the "en masse" collecting and you can see more here . One of my collections for my En masse journaling was Drinks!!!!  And there were lots of fab digis from Karleigh Sue that fit this new page spread!!!  So I figure it would be a fab make for my inspiration post for Karleigh Sue . So I thought  Poodle skirt  for the milkshakes,  Pumpkin Spice Latte  for the great COFFEE and  Just Beer  would be perfect to illustrate my favorite drinks!!!  I cropped the images, And here's the make with the image colored with copics.  The rest is images that I cut out of magazines as well as some sentiments done with my label maker.  Hope you like it!!! I'm entering this little spread in the following challenges: 2 creative chicks  - Anyt

WOW it's almost 4 years!!!!  I'm so amazed that I'm still blogging!!!  And I have gone through such changes from my beginnings. Here is the card that I posted with my 1st post on March 27th 2012: And here is my latest post that I have done prior to posting this My style and everything as totally changed I think!!! I have also been through lots and you guys have supported me the entire time!!!  And that's why I wanted to celebrate you as well. So I'm celebrating BIG TIME and I have a lot of prizes for you because the artists that I design for have been SUPER GENEROUS!!!!!  I'm putting them in the order of when I joined their teams so the oldest team 1st and so on.  I really do hope you go and visit their shop and FB group to give them some love and check them out if you haven't already.  If you click on their logos you will be brought to their store. I'm also doing a little giveaway on Youtube for my subscriber there!  So don't miss t

Ohhhh I'm here to share with you a new passion and a little make for the Karleigh Sue Blog :)  Yes I have to admit it I just LOVE glueing stuff together!!!!  And this was soooo much fun.  I'm doing a little "en masse" journal collection.  You can join the group that showcases this on FB here . The idea behind this is to collect items and glue them down.  But of course I can't just do that... I need to have a story to tell!  For this layout I was making a collection of glasses! So I thought  Miss Cherry  would be totally perfect.  I cropped the image and put her among the glasses.  The images for the glasses come from magazine as well as from pictures online and a little pair of sunglasses that I photographed that belonged to my dad. And here's the make with the image colored with copics.  The background was just done with some paint put on a gesso background.  The journal is a Reader's Digest that I glued pages together and I'm using for this.

Hello everyone!  Instead of doing a new release this time we are doing an oldies make.  And I decided to use the fabulous digi  I'm so fancy  in my "en masse journaling" which is basically a grouping of image and gluing them together.  You have to watch the video from Shannon Green to get the full idea. And so for my very 1st spread I'm doing it about shoes!!!  I just ADORE shoes!  Pens, paper shoes :)  yeah I'm weird I love the girly stuff as well as the crafty stuff.  It's actually an issue if I have to decide what to spend my money on. So that image was just PERFECT for this spread because she's lying on a shoe!!!  I colored her up with my copics.  I did the background with some brushoes.  And then lots of cutting up of shoes from magazines.  I've been cutting lots of them during my lunch hour.  And it's really addictive.  I also cut out the words that would fit with this "shoes, chaussures". My base is a Reader's digest m

Hello everyone I'm here with a beautiful digi from Karleigh sue .  I have done another little journaling out of the box (you have to see my series on Youtube to get why I call it that).  Where I'm using for the background some recycled cereal box (very cool when you consider how much cereal we go through with 4 kids in the house!!!! And this time I went retro!  I really love the awesome look of this digi for this.  She really reminded me of the dinner eras!  The super cute digi that I used is  Crop Top Cutie You can see on youtube how I made this. And here's the make that I did.  The sentiment is from  Gingers house ,  The image was colored with my copics.  I used my stamp from Paper Artsy.  I used many different layers on this and you can see them here here.  Hope you like it!!!

Hello everyone!  It's time for a new release series at Karleigh Sue !!!!  And the new release images are just PERFECT for Valentine's day!!!! I decided to make my hubby's Valentine's day card with my image Chocolate Covered Strawberry.  But I made it a funny Valentine's day card!!!  Just didn't want it to be just the typical one!!!

OMG did you check out what the fabulous Cheri did for me?!?  Did you?!?  There's a brand new digi that's called Vicky and it was made based on my request and picture :)  I just have to admit that this digi  Vicky  is much better than the original model that's me lol.  And I just had to do my 1st post for the inspiration blog with it. My inspiration was a hippie because well I was born at the end of the 60s and that was the type at the time.  I also love that type of clothing and the loose and flowery stuff.  I don't know what happened to me this year but I'm all about tuniques and loose flowing tops :)  but I don't look that sexy hee hee hee. Anyway I just HAD to play with my digi!!!  And I thought I would share with you what I made.  I used a great background that I had made in a class using some silks paints.  I did that background while at a class at Scrapbook Central.  I had not used silks before.

I'm back with another little make for you this month  for the Karleigh Sue inspiration and this time I decided to play just for the fun of it!  You can see how I did with the video that I have done here.  You can see how the background was made as well. I used the great image  Sexy cat lady  to make  a little mixed media index card.  Hope you like this little card. I colored her up with my copics and fussy cut her.  I really had fun making this.  Hope you like it!!! The text was done with some book pages that I have cut out.  I thought it was perfect for this.

Hello everyone!  It's time for the great new release over at  Karleigh Sue  and you can see the new release on the blog here . Here's the great make that I did with Just press play.  I had so much fun making this because it's part of my life because I'm a gamer :) So that was totally PERFECT for making a journaling.

I really adore using digis and for my make over at Karleigh Sue digis  I decided to use one of them in a little mixed media piece to make to my dad.  He really really loves owls so I decided to use the great  Adrianna's owl . For this make I did a little video for you of my process :)  Hope you like it!  Here it is And here is my little make :)

Wow time goes by fast!  It's already time for a new challenge over at  Karleigh Sue Challenge  and this time it's for the boys. I decided to be ahead of the game and I made my husband's b-day card.  To make this I used the image  Let's Celebrate

OK got to start this post by saying that I'm totally EXCITED and overjoyed!!!!  I got a new job :)  YUP and it's funny because it's at the company that got me started in my career of a manufacturing accountant!!!!  So wouldn't it be cool that I started my career there and that I would end it there?!? :) Anyway just had TO SHARE!!!! For my post today I used a great fall digi from Karleigh Sue called Pumpkin Spice Latte .

I really adore using digis in my journal.  I totally fell in love with this digi when it was released last month at Karleigh Sue digis and just HAD to play with her  Dance for your master  for the inspiration post that I'm hosting today. I had made some backgrounds in a crafting class and that was just the perfect one for this journaling.  I did add some gelatos to the edge just for added fun :)

It's time already for a new challenge over at  Karleigh Sue  and this time around it's about Kraft! For making this make I used the fabulous  Under construction .  I just love this image because I totally adore making stuff and working with tools so I totally can associate myself with this image. I decided to make something in my journal.... what a surprise right?!? :)   But I didn't paint the background I decided to use some papers from Market special paper.  I also used my Couture embossing folder for this.  I added some black dots for the nails.

It's my very 1st time doing an inspiration post over at Karleigh Sue  here!  I'm very excited about it!  For my 1st post here I decided to used the great image for making a little door hanger.  I wanted to make something that would be put on the door to the garage for when I'm doing a video :)  So I used the fab  Dog Days of Summer . I wanted to make sure that my kids would not get in... and this is what I came up with lol.  Hope that is something that you will like.

Hello!  There's an awesome new release over at  Karleigh Sue  and it's such a very fun one!!!! I had the pleasure of working with the great Kharma is a b****.  And I thought and thought and thought of how I could use her... And suddenly I had one of those AHHHHHH that's what I want to do type of moment! Of course it was again some journaling.  I have to say that there's something quite fun about making something just FOR YOU because YOU WANT to!  And something that no one else has to like.  It's also a way for me to have some reminder of what is important and what I'm supposed to do.... as well as what I'm afraid off.... Anyway I digress.  Here's my make with the great new image. During the summer time I purchased fabulous skulls on special at Michael's they are made out of paper but they really make awesome stencils!  Now I need to make one out of plastic so that it will last longer....

Hello everyone!  It's time for a new challenge over at  Karleigh Sue Challenge  and this time around it's time for Ribbons and/or flowers.
