Crafting Vicky

Hello!!!!  I've been creating a LOT today!!!  And I decided to finish off the day by doing some stuff just BECAUSE I could and I wanted too!!! I use index cards to use the left over paints and I used some yummy yummy Dylusions paints on a project today that I cannot share with you yet.... but I had some left over.  And that's how this little make got started. It's getting darker sooner.... and I wanted to use lots of colors for my make because that's happy and I wanted happy as I was with my creating!  The image that I used is from Lacy Sunshine and it's called Maddie Hobo Clown.  I don't think I have ever in my life used so many colors on one single digi lol and she was tiny.... I had printed her small....  but she was perfect for this little index card and I hope you will think so too. I used some of my melted pony beads for this make as well as some washi tape (I don't use it enough)!!!!  The sentiment is from Dylusions - Laugh 'til you leak...

I'm back for one last post.  This one will have lots of pictures however.  It's a little album that I made using some paper bags for signatures and some cardboard box for the cover.  I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. I made all kinds of sections and then had the 6 of us write on a little card what was our favorite things. So here's the cover I used a bunch of different tags and papers from my stash as well as from Simple stories.  Love those little sentiments and things. The letters are from October afternoon.  I used a little brad and ribbon as the closer. Here's the side view of all the signatures tied together.  As mentioned all the signature were done with some paper bags.  I used some metal beads as well.  Here's the backview of the album.  I used some paper that I wrinkled up and some old book pages as well.  Here's the look opened up.  The 1st section was about the favorite season.  I use...

Our challenge for you this forthnight is to share your favorite things!!!  And for us over at  Lacy Sunshine  we have used our favorite digis. Now I have to tell the whole story... when we came up with the idea of using the digi that we wanted... Heather told me that she was sure I would use this opportunity to go the dark route... As you know she has some pretty amazing darker images.  And yes... I would have probably gone that way... but this conversation sounded like a challenge to me lol.  So I told her that I would go the cute and Christmasy route... I don't think she believed me at 1st... but here's my card with the great Snowdrop image.  You can see I really did go cute and Christmasy... at least that's my version of it.

Today it was a gorgeous day but still too cold for the beach... so we enjoyed some shopping at Barnes&Nobles, some new clothes for my daughter (all the stuff that we purchase here remind them of the vacation... so I'm a total sucker for that lol and I got some pretty good sales), we also went and purchased our ornament for this year's Christmas tree and it will be a Skunk (a cute little one)... now you might wonder why... well... we have seen a skunk around the campground this year... and last night at 11pm as I was going out to the restroom... I heard my neighbor tell me "watch out mam there's a skunk" sure enough she was under our bbq... so I hurried to the washroom but I knew I would have to come back.... and while coming back... it was in between my car and the kids tent.  Let's just say that I didn't go out again!!!! So...I'm back with another little creation from  Lacy Sunshine .  I had some all prepared and not blogged this was perfect for...

Goodmorning everyone!!!  It's time for a new challenge over at  Lacy Sunshine challenge . For this challenge I got to play with an image that was just perfect to represent my vacation going on right now.  Yup that's me taking it easy lol So I'm playing with the so cute Finkle - Wake up.

Hello everyone!  I'm back with a card I had made a few months ago for Lacy Sunshine but had not yet blogged.  I really love making cards but sometimes it's hard to find the time to blog them.  So I figured that while I'm camping I'm going to blog all the cards that I have done and not blogged yet. Heather has made the most awesome Melancholy Moppets .  They remind me of little ghosts and since I'm on vacation I've been reading some stories about ghosts and witches and such.  This reminded me of those cards not yet posted lol. This little Moppet is called Lilianna.

It's time for a midway post for the fabulous challenge over at  Lacy sunshine challenge .  And yes... I'm back with another Christmas card lol.  I'm really getting ahead this year with them all!!!  I will have a great big box of cards to give to my grandma for her b-day that's coming up. So back to my card.  I used the fabulous Over stuffed Santa.  This is really fabulous little Santa ;o)
