Crafting Vicky

Hello everyone!  For this newest challenge over at Meljen's design we have a special anniversary challenge!  And we also have a great freebie!!! So here's my card with the awesome freebie image that's called all our friends!  I thought it was just the perfect b-day card!

TGIF!!!! What a long week this week... Wow it was Tuesday and to me it should already have been Friday... but that's ok now it is and it's my turn to post for Meljen's DT post .  And Friday's with Meljen's images in them are even better!!! I really love the great divas!!!  And the fabulous  Windswept Diva  is no exception to this. I mean... look at that face!!!  You can't stop smiling when you see a great image like that.  And this is the entire point of this card!  I really hope it brings a smile to the person getting it!  And with Mother's day coming it's totally perfect for a special lady in your life!

Hello!!!  I'm back with my last post for today!  This time it's for Meljen's design DT  and I'm using the great  Little Pocket Puppy . Our challenge for you is Let's hear it for the boys and I thought that was just the perfect image for that challenge!

Hello everyone!  So did you enjoy the celebration challenge?!?  Wasn't it fun?!?  And now it's time for a new challenge at  Meljen's Design  and this time it's Lucky you!  So use some green on your project! So... don't know about you but there's only so many St-Patrick celebration type cards that I can do and send out... so I used this time to make a great bookmark for my hubby!  I'm so happy he's been using them!!!! For this one I used a great digi called  Irish Brew   and I thought it was just perfect because we really like our beer... :)

We're doing the happy dance as we celebrate our 200th Challenge!

TGIF!!!! And it's my turn to post for Meljen's DT post ,  I really really love Fridays and especially with some Meljen's images in them! I decided for this post to use a fairly new image from Melissa that I just adore.  I have to say that I really really love those little mice!!!  And the fabulous  Camera Mouse  is no exception to this. I mean... look at that face!!!  You can't stop smiling when you see a great image like that.  And this is the entire point of this card!  I really hope it brings a smile to the person getting it!

It's time for a new challenge over at  Meljen's Design  and this time our challenge for you is bling it on ( lots and lots of bling!!!) For this card I decided to use the great Firefly Fairy .  I thought she was just perfect for this bling it on!!!

It's time for a new challenge over at  Meljen's Design  and this time our challenge for you is particularly easy with the time of year!  It's "I heart you" so use some hearts in your project! For my little project I decided to use the very sweet  Little Baby dragon .  I made another tag with it!!!  This time to give to my daughter who just adores dragons!

Woop woop it's Friday and it's my 1st DT Day over at Meljens Designs . For this very 1st post I decided to make something a bit different!  I'm making a TAG!!!!  Yup  :)  But to simplify my lift I made it using my Cameo.   For this tag I used the fabulous  Nermin the fox my Candy .   This little guy is probably for Halloween... but I thought he would be awesome on a little St-Valentine's day tag.  He reminds me of one of my boys who keeps all his candy just for him... so I figured I would give it to him :) It's going to go with his candy!

Hello everyone!!!  It's time for a new challenge over at  Meljen's Design  and this time the challenge is for Not just black and white, add a color. For my card I decided to use  Cozy winter wolf pup .  And as you can see my extra color is red lol I also decided to make a little Christmas card! Yup trying to stay ahead of the game.

Hello everyone!  Well I was supposed to be a GDT... but now I have the honor of being a DT at  Meljen's designs !!!  I'm totally over the moon for this news.  I've loved Melissa's fabulous digis for a long time so it's a real honor to be able to create with them now. For my 1st challenge the theme is Bullseye!  So everything centred.  I have to say that really threw me for a loop... So I left my card really really CAS... best way to make sure that it's centred right?!? I used the very cute image  Cozy Winter Raccoon .  He seemed really fitting for the weather that we've been having!!!!

Ok so it's the new year 2014!!!  You would think it's time for some good stuff right?!?  WRONG!!!!  I get back from my FIL to find a credit card bill for a credit card that I never owned... for 14700$$$  in my NAME... so I'm freaking out...  called the credit card company and now I have to go to the bank and show some pieces of id and hopefully get this cleared up!  But until it is I'm freaking out!!!!  And yes I have now sent request for the 2 credit checks in Canada to sent me my records so that I may make sure that there's nothing else outstanding... So that was the bad part of the new year... but the GREAT news is that there was an opening at So instead of being a GDT I'm now a full fledge DT member!!!  My dream as come true!!!  I totally adore those images so I'm over the moon to be a DT member ;o) I guess bad things also bring good things?!?  But I truly hope that 2014 will bring more good than bad... And for you guys don't know if yo

So how was your Monday?!?  I'm glad that mine is over... it was pretty bad traffic wise... that's what happens when it snows, now the streets are all congested until they pick up the snow... and ran out of windshield washer fluid.... yup over all just happy the day is over. The good news is that my employees really liked their little homemade gifts ;o)  And as promised I'm here to share another one with you!  This time with a really sweet Meljen's  image this time I'm using the great  Cozy winter mailbox .  It was really appropriate with all the snow outside lol  I went with some green and red to be able to play again in the challenge of this week .  And of course I will reiterate how much I want one of those 2 GDT!!!!!  Ok... yup... I know... I'm grovelling... So here's my little Christmas jar.

Here's my last post of the night and no I'm not sharing some other of my jars ;o)  you will have to wait to see the other 5 that I made!!! ;o) This time I'm here to share with you a little card that I made to participate in the latest challenge over at  Meljens designs .  I really really want to be one of the chosen 2 GDT!  Yup only 2 :(  So I'm trying to share with the team how much I want in!!!! lol For this card I used the great image  Pretty poinsettia  and I printed it out 4 times.  I colored it with my copics and then decoupaged it!  It's a long process but I really love the dimension that I got out of it.

Hello everyone!  This is a pretty sentimental post for me!  This is my last post as a DT for  Tuesday throwdown  after 1 year and almost 1/2 I thought it was time to resign for a fabulous team.    Right now they are having a DT call and you will want to try out!  They are such an awesome group of ladies super supportive... sniff sniff sniff always hard to leave but I know that I will be seeing them in blog land!!! So for this challenge you will love it, it's  What Christmas Means to You !!!  How fabulously easy right??! Our awesome sponsor is   Just loooove those images! And for my creation I got to play with the very fun Marshmallow snowman.  Yup another snowman on my blog.  But I have to admit I really love snowmen and this one was super fun to play with.  I made a little pillow box that's been used to put a gift card. The little box was made with my Cameo.  I used some leftover piece of DP from Little yellow bicycle.  I added some little snowflakes done with my c

I'm back as promised!  And this time I'm here to share with you a little tag that I made to participate in the  Meljen's challenge  which is tag this time. I had sprayed a bunch of tags a while back with some different inks.  So this was the perfect opportunity to use one! The little image that I used is the fabulous  Penguin little letter .  He's soooo cute!  Well all of Meljen's images are....

Ok so I finally got home in time for supper tonight with my family!!!  wooohooo after getting home every night at around 7pm or 8pm...  Soooooo looking forward to the weekend... Anyway I figured I deserved some crafting time!!!  So after seeing  Meljens designs dt  challenge about giving thanks, I wanted to play along!!! I sooooo want to get one of those 2 special GDT spots... but after seeing last weeks contestant for it... I seriously doubt I have a chance.  But if you don't try you have no chance right?!?  So I'm playing again this week to tell them how much I WANT IN!!!!!!!!!!!! So I used the soooo cute  Ornament mouse  for this creation.  Right now there's a great sale and the digis are 50% off... let's just say that I took this opportunity to shop a bit... shhhh don't tell my hubby! Their challenge is about thanks.  I decided to make something a bit different.  With Christmas coming, I usually bring a bottle of wine over to thank the hosts of having us o

OHHHHH MYYYYY... there's an opportunity to be a guest designer over at Meljen's Design  and I soooo love their image.  I play as often as I can... and I was waiting anxiously for an opportunity to apply as a DT... that never happened :(  So couldn't take the chance to miss this... Now the bad part is that they will only take 2 people... and of course there are so many talented folks out there that I'm really not thinking that I will get in...   But I still have to try my luck right?!?! So I'm playing this time with the very cute Buddy the fox - Snowbuddy knows .  I just think he's adorable and right now he's 50% off... so only 1.5$... can I tell you that I will be going for a shopping spree?!?

Good morning!  It's Tuesday!  And no DT post for today... so figured this was the perfect time to share with you a little card I did this past weekend to play in the latest Meljen's challenge. For this challenge we are to use the 1st letter of our 1st name. Now my name is Vicky... and I was running out of ideas for the "v"... so I decided to go with the French version!  Hope that's ok!!!  So my V is "vert" which means green and "ver" which means earthworm. I thought this was the perfect time to make a little boy card! ;o)

Hello!!!  So how was your Monday?!?  Are you surprised to see me again so soon?!?  I told you I created a lot this past weekend... well it was to participate in some challenges so better get blogging before I miss entering lol So this time it's for the Meljen's challenge.  They have a fancy font challenge.  For this card I used the Cat in the bag.  Just love that image so close to what my cats do lol
