Robert Envelope

2010-02-23T10:49:00.002-05:00

While I was stationed far, far away in Korea from 1991-92..my brother Robert sent me a letter and this is what the outside of the envelope looks like. Amazing detail!

Climbing the Walls

2010-02-18T12:02:00.006-05:00

So what happens when 5 year olds are stuck inside the house for too long? They start climbing the walls, of course. I've always heard the term, but never took it literally until I seen this! And I've always called her my monkey....now I see I wasn't wrong.

When I asked why, why, why she does that, she just simply says it's for exercise, and it works, too cause she's got some pretty strong, muscular arms for a petite little girl.

Soooo, why do we buy the kids toys??????

The living room, kitchen, bathroom, all bedrooms, outside & the truck are littered with toys that she doesn't want to give away, but doesn't really play with. She'd rather climb walls and do push ups. I say it's time to downsize with the toy collection.

Love, Love, Love

2010-02-18T11:42:00.002-05:00

I love customer feedback: "Love, love the card, pumpkin faces, and bat topers. Especially the card. Also thank you for the little notebook. I needed a little gift for a sick friend and she adores it. I will be back. Good luck with your business. Anna"

Custom ordered a regular seat belt cover for me from Jalsiku on Etsy. This cover is so amazing! I had a problem with the seat belt coming in contact with my skin and it was so uncomfortable....not any more. It's also reversible.

Originally made for kids' car seat restraints which looks like it comes in a different size. Many other baby products are also on sale in her shop.

Highly recommended!

I gave this design to my brother Robert and this is his take on it.

Pretty neat, huh?

MIL Frame

2009-08-13T09:51:00.007-04:00

This is a frame with pictures of my MIL taken throughout her life.

This is a poster frame with the acrylic front instead of glass. The acrylic keeps it more lightweight and allows it to stay dimensional where the glass makes it so heavy and crushes all the pics & makes it less dimensional.

Flowers were stuck on the outside of the acrylic with glue dots.

This card was made for Gavin, a little boy who's about to turn 2!

It was a custom made card made for Ashley at BlueNostalgia. I literally drool over her jewelry.

Colors & flame inspired by the Hot Wheels pkg. I even drew out the flame myself. Don't know if that's good or bad cause my drawing skills are 0%! The car had a design on it that I was trying to cover up, which determined the size of the flame.

non traditional grad card

2008-07-21T09:51:00.000-04:00

graduation card. the school colors are purple & gold. the flying bird reminded me of graduation (leaving the nest....;)

this card would work for either a boy or girl.

the saying on the lower right hand side says "dreams come a size too big so we can grow into them".

the inside with the tab pulls out for a sentiment similar to "celery sticks" which is also a pocket card.

trees of thanks

2008-07-21T09:46:00.000-04:00

this can be either masculine or feminine. trees stamped on naturals white cardstock.
it has a subtle texture to it. not quite as smooth & bright as regular white.
it's one of my favorites to use.

part of the brown is embossed with dots, the upper half is stamped w/leaves.

jasmin birthday

2008-07-20T20:14:00.000-04:00

card was made for a little girl's birthday. the close up shows the detail in the name. letters were embossed and watercolored on the inside and around the outside which gives it an antiqued look.

the front panel has a 1" fold to the inside for insertion of $$$.

this card would work for either a boy or girl.

any part of this could be changed to fit your needs, like the color combination, sentiment, or stamped image inside scalloped circle.

this would be a $4 card.

a little birdie told me...

2008-07-20T20:09:00.000-04:00

this sentiment can also read (instead of you're the best):

it's time to celebrate!
it's your birthday!
you're getting married!
you're under the weather
you got a promotion!
about your good news!
