My Mother's birthday


Hi,
I was away on holidays recently and missed my Mother's birthday, so I gave this to her when we returned. It took me awhile to punch all the holes in the butterfly images and then to stencil it, but I like how it turned out. I found the stencil in Edmonton along time ago and had never used it before. The die-cuts from Sizzix were cut on glitter paper, although it is hard to see on this picture. The papers I used were freebies from papercrafts inspiration (I think). I haven't been working in my craft room too much, but I hope I will have something to show you soon. Thanks for stopping by. Tanya R.

Another High Hopes Blog Hop

Hi everyone,

Sorry I have been away, but August is always a busy month for me. I do have some images I would like to share with you soon, but for right now I want to share the new release from High Hopes Rubber Stamps. I love their images and look forward to the blog hop on September 1st. Hope you can all join in for the fun. Cheers, Tanya R.

Good morning,
I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend. I can't wait to go to the zoo tomorrow with my niece. I just hope the weather is good. I duplicated this card from a magazine. It caught my eye and I just had to try it. Mine is not as embellished as the one in the mag, but I did use the same paper. I also had to make my own candle with paper because I did not have a birthday candle in the house. I may have made it a little tall. I used flowersoft for the icing, and all the paper used is from DCWV. The sentiment is a sticker from Papercraft Inspirations magazine. I hope you like it, it was alot of fun to make and give. Thanks for stopping by. Tanya R.
