Crafting Vicky

Hello Everyone!  It's been awhile since I last posted... It's because I did some cards for my DT work... and not supposed to show them yet ;0  Plus last night I had a gala for the volunteer work my daughter did.  And she won!  She was soooo excited. So today I did 2 cards that were requested from a colleague.  The 1st one is for her sister's b-day.  And she wanted a big card 8"1/2 x 11".... never made a card so big!  So I was really scared of messing it up.  I'm really happy with the result.  I hope she will be as well: The lady in question travels from Montréal to Toronto, Vancouver and Paris and works at Clarins.  What do you think?  Did it turn out good? The second request was for her real estate agent who bought her house.   It doesn't show in the picture but it's much smaller than the previous card lol. So I really hope that my colleague likes them.... I'm sending her the link to this blog soon. For now I'm about to g

Hello everyone!!!!  I missed my blog.  Yesterday and today I was in meetings all day and last night I had a school board meeting.... those are very long day!  Especially after being able to craft for 4 days.  So I really missed it. Tonight I created a card that was requested by my SIL.  She wanted a birthday card for her mom.  And asked if it could be Victorian type.  I figured that I should use a beautiful silhouette image by Floppy Latte Design.  You can find it at Stichy bear stamps.  It has two wonderful little angels. For those of you that follow my blog you will know that my SIL just had 2 months ago beautiful twins.  A boy and a girl.  This image reminded me of them.  I figured that this would be perfect for the grandma ;) To create this I used some of my new nestabilities shape.  I also added some Robin's nest dew drops. I followed this great sketch: I would like to enter this card in the following challenges: Stampin for the weekend  - Sketch On

Wooooo hoooo!  This is my 1st post as a DT at  Jacksons digital expressions !!!!!  Can you tell I'm super excited ;)))) I made this card a week 1/2 ago and I've soooo wanted to show it to the world.  This week it's anything goes but the twist is a wonderful sketch!  You will loooooove it. This is my 1st DT card for them: Isn't that image just fantastic!!!!  It's called Moma's + Suga.  It's so precious.  Robert Jackson is one talented artist.  You really should check him out at :  Fine arts by Robert Jackson .  It's absolutely wonderful to color it!  I paired this with some paper that I had from My mind's eye. I'm entering this card in the following challenges: Simply create too  - For a special lady (here I was picturing my mother-in-law with her grandchild) Moving along with the times  - Keep it real (this is my 3rd entry showing that I know that I can do some other things not just fairies ;) ) Make it monday  - Anything goes

So this is my last order from a colleague :(  I hope I get more... just love doing cards soooo much and can't use them all... plus it helps me get some more supplies! This time the little birthday girl is turning 2!!!!!  Woooo hoooo!  I had a blast making this little sweetie's card.  Just went with a bunch of bright colors and bling!   This is my 1st time to use a La la land craft stamp!  So much fun to color.  I added some stickles to her bows, and the gift.  I used K&Cie paper a nestabilitie gromet tag. I followed this great sketch: I'm entering this card in the following challenges: Theres magic in the air  - sketch Send a smile 4 kids  - Anything goes Crafty card makers  - Balloons Creative inspirations paint  - Balloons The paper shelter  - Birthday card with sentiment I hope that my colleague likes the card.  What do you guys think?  Enough bling?!? I'm not sure that I will be back tonight with another post.  But tomorrow morni

We really are blessed for our Victoria day weekend.  It's another BEAUTIFUL day!!!!  And while my hubby is taking care of setting up the pool... I decided to do a card that was requested from a colleague. It's funny because her daughter is named Megan and she's turning 13th just like my own daughter... so when my Megan saw the card she thought it was for her lol but no... it wasn't.  The little teenager that it is for loves fashion and shopping.  I had just the perfect image.  It's Susanna Shopper from Digi Darlas.  She was a digi made to raise money for a good cause.  So I couldn't resist.  This is the 2nd time that I used her in one of my posts.  The mom is quite a funny lady and keeps saying weird things... So it was fitting to put a bilingual birthday wish. To be even more perfect Digi Darlas are doing a sketch this week! So this was a fabulous way of using my image.  And to top of the wonderful, paper pretties had a challenge to use your school colors.
