Crafting Vicky

Hello Everyone!!!  I had such a super fun day!  Lots of crafting for future DT work.  And of course some play time just for ME!!! This is one of them... Now this is a dark creation... well I totally blame Heather Valentine for making such awesome images.  And you can get this one for just 1$$$$ over at Lacy Sunshine shop . So yes of course it's her fault lol There was a few darker challenges that I wanted to enter.  What can I say I need to get this part of me satisfied... I do lots of cute cards... but I also need the darker side satisfied...  I totally love all the fantasy and vampire/gothic style... so NEED to do something with it as well. For this card I used some paper that I had left overs from a previous card ;)))  I used my scallop and classic circle large dies from Spellbinder.  I added some feathers.  In the bottom are some buttons as well as 2 little Robin's nest dew drops.  I used my CM border punches to make the 2 rows across. Here's a closer look

Ok I'm addicted lol.  Just love doing ATCs ;)  And just love working with the fabulous digis from Heather Valentine!!!!  And you can get some here for only 1$$$$.  She keeps adding new ones lol. This time I decided to use one from her called Zobbie Zombie to make some ATC (well 2) and that was enough... Heather's digis are really detailed... so doing them that small is not easy lol I didn't play at Wicked Wednesday ATC last week... and just HAD to play this week!!! So here's my little ATC.  I figured my daughter would love getting one for valentine's day as she's really into anything goth, vampire or zombie related ;-)  I wonder who she takes this from... lol To make these I used my classic oval large and my large deckled rectangle from Spellbinder (used the smallest of the large dies lol).  I also used my Daisy patch from spellbinder to make the flower with some scraps.  I used a pearl brad for the center purchased at Eyelet outlet the heart is also

Hello All!!!  Today is the exciting start of the new challenge over at  Lacy sunshine challenge .  And it's Anything goes!!!!  So easy no reason not to participate with us!  Especially when you can win fabulous new digis!!! For my card I had the pleasure of working with the fabulous digi Abby Fortune Teller.  For this card I decided to go with a masculine feel because I have a card required soon and I thought this would be really awesome. For this card I used paper from Walnut Grove - Pebbles.  I used my EK punch to make the border punch.  I used some buttons and some twine.  I distressed the paper with my Tim Holtz distress tool.  I used my classic rectangles and my long rectangle from Spellbinder. Here's a closer look at my digi colored with my copics and I added some Vintage photo distress ink to the edge. Isn't she just fabulous?!?  I have added a wonderful sentiment from  Create with tlc .  I thought it was just perfect with this digi ;)  Especially for t

Good evening everyone!  Hope you had a really nice Tuesday.  Tonight I really wanted to craft.  We finished eating fairly soon so I was able to go down to my craft room for some play time!!! I was good... I made some DT cards 1st (actually managed to make 2) and I still had time for another and this time it was just for fun and for me!!!  I had been planning to participate in a few challenges and this was the opportunity.  To top it of I had just received my order for some more wonderful retiring digis from  Lacy Sunshine !!!!!  All at 1$$$$$  so yes... I splurged... but it was really good for my moral. Here's the card that I made using the fabulous Zolly zombie car hop For this card I used paper from Authentique Glowing (one of my favorite pack from past Halloween) and I used the sheet music because the sentiment is the last words of Mozart... So I thought it was fitting to put sheet music ;)  I used my classic rectangles small and large to cut the digi and paper underneat

It's me again ;)  This time I have super exciting news to share with you!   Lacy Sunshine  was having a DT call.  I figured that I would probably not be chosen because I knew that some very talented people were trying out... but I also knew that if I didn't try I would never know and would regret not even giving it a chance. So I e-mailed Heather and crossed all my appendages lol  Well I made the TEAM!!!!!  WOOOOHOOOO so very very excited to be part of this amazing team and to get to create with those amazing digis. Well while I was waiting for the news... Heather has discounted soon to be retired digis... 2 pages full of wonderful digis for only 1$$$ each!  How cool right.  Well I went shopping big time (now don't tell my hubby lol) Tonight I created a card with the wonderful little Cute as a lil bug.  And of course this gave me the opportunity to use another one of the wonderful sentiment from  Create with TLC  that's part of the Love love amore set that you can

Hello Everyone!  Hope you had a wonderful Sunday!  I used mine to craft ;)  I did 6 cards for a Valentine card swap and then I did some DT cards and a card that was ask for a colleague... And well I  kept one just for fun because it was my reward for being good ;)  This week I purchased a bunch of digis from Lacy Sunshine  at only 1$$$$  yes you read right.  And when I purchased the little Wila B. Mine Lil gothie line art, I had the perfect sentiment from  Create with tlc  in mind it's part of Valentine mix  set . I was a bit fed up of Valentine's day card after making so many... so I went darker ;) I used some left over paper for this card!!!  YAY!!!  I used a EK border punch as well as some ribbon and pearls from my stash. Here's a closer look at the fab digi And here's a closer look at the great sentiment To make this card I followed this sketch: It felt really good to do a darker Valentine card ;))) I'm entering this card in the f

Right now she's retiring some digis and they are only at 1$$$.... so of course I went shopping and bought all of them... and today she added more... NOOOOO... so just had to purchase them as well ;) This being said I got the ones that I purchased yesterday today and of course just HAD to start playing with them... so instead of doing the sensible thing and doing my DT work... I played with my new digis ;) Now I have to share a secret with you guys... I really looooove anything to do with goth, vampire, witchs, etc.... I don't do a lot of cards with that because well lets be honest I don't  have a lot of friends that I could send this to... but tonight I did one just for me!  And I used a wonderful sentiment from  Create with TLC  that was part of
