Hey all~
Thank you for visiting me on another Tamiko's Thursday Challenge. Our creative team was asked to use a combination of Brads, Buttons & Bling. All 3 types must be used on a card. Here is what I came up with. Can you find where I put the brads?
I chose these colors for summer because I tried to incorporate 2 projects into one! lol. I also decided prior to this that I was running out of time for my September OCS so off it went to my partner. Hope she will like it! Thank you for visiting and I hope to have some creations in a couple days.
Hugs,
Last week, I came home to happy mail. I had won a blogaversary over at Fay's My Stamping Creations. I've never won anything before so I was so surprised when I saw my name. I enjoy checking out Fay's site because of all of wonderful creations. I believe that we actually met sometime last year at several m&t at various local stores. She's the sweetest person!!! Thanks again Fay!!!
Thanks for visiting everyone! Have a great week!

Hi all~
Welcome to another of Tamiko's Thursday Teaser (TTT)!!! Our CT was asked to incorporate some Nestabilities into our card & freestyle the rest. I chose to use Travel Anya on my card. Fall is here and we can say farewell to our summer travels. She is so sweet. I colored her several times. My desk is a mess from all of my trial & errors. Putting the card together was a lot of fun. I wanted to use the last of the summer colors. What do you think?
Thanks for visiting! Come back soon & I'll be posting up some pictures of some blog candy that I won!
Hugs,
Hope that everyone is enjoying their weekend. It's been a fun weekend for me...3 days since I had a furlough day. It gives me an extra day to create. I tried my hand at the Karber girl challenge. Trying my hand at Copic Cool Grey's now. This was not my first image that I colored. My first attempt looked like a granny. heh-heh. Hope that this one is better.
Hope that everyone has a great week! Thanks for stopping by!

Hi all~
It's time for Tamiko's Thursday Teaser again! We have a fun challenge for everyone. Our creative team was asked to create an altered TGF image on a 3D project. This was my first time working on an altered image but it turned out really fun!! I used Hula Anya's top portion with WS Megan's outfit.
My 3D project was a simple box that I created out of a 7" by 7" CS scored at 2 1/2" and 5" then I scored diagonally at the 4 corners. Then, I used my Nestabilities labels (there was a whole bunch just released again) for the 2 sides. Tamiko's has a wide selection of pretty ribbon that I got to choose from.
top view:
So, Tamiko's challenge will be to use a altered Greeting Farm image and it can be either a 3D or card. The winner will receive a Sweet Anya image. The challenge will close on September 30 at midnight (HST). You can choose to use either 2 TGF image or alter the eyes/hair. For specific details, please check Tamiko's blog. You'll also get to see the other CT members creations. Remember, if you spend $25 or more (in the US), you'll get free shipping & handling.
Thanks for visiting and have a beautiful weekend!!!
Hugs,
Aloha all~
It's Thursday and time for another Tamiko's Thursday Teaser. Today, we have a sketch challenge for you. For the specific details, go to Tamiko's blog. I had a fun time with Stella of TGF. I have been experimenting with blending and blending....and blending. First it was the hair, now it's the clothes. lol. And, since it's still summer (well, it's still HOT!) I'm loving these butterflies.
Thank you for visiting again. Hope to have some more creations later this weekend.
Take care,
**THIS POST TO REMAIN ON TOP UNTIL BLOG HOP IS OVER. PLEASE SEE CURRENT POSTS BELOW THIS ONE.**
Hi all-
If you just came from Teri's, welcome. If not, you can start from the original blogger, here.
Tamiko's is having a surprise blog hop to celebrate the new TGF releases. Just a few details:
- this will run until Sept. 7, 2010 11:59pm HST.
- one winner will be chosen the following day (Sept. 8th).
- blog hop candy: $10 gift certificate to Tamiko's and one choice of the new release rubber stamp from TGF, either Sweet Anya or Oh Boy Ian.
- You must comment on everyone's (CT) blog for a chance to win the prize/blog hop candy.
The CT had an opportunity to choose between the cute stamps (available for purchase at Tamiko's. Spend $25 and get FREE s/h).
I chose to use Sweet Anya. Once I saw how sweet she was, I knew I had to try.
and here is a little surprise on the inside....Happy Birthday Cami!
Thank you for visiting and the next blog hop is Linda of Simple & Sassy Creations. Wait till you see her beautiful creation! It's just out of this world!! Till next time...
Hugs,

Hope that everyone is enjoying of what is left of this beautiful Labor Day weekend. It's hot, hot, hot over here. Anyways, I had the fastest partner, in Kyoko's Christmas tag swap. If you want to join in on the fun, please sign up. Charlotte actually had dropped it off to my house the next day.
So, I'm thinking, whoa! I'd better get cracking. I had actually managed to finish everything in the squeak of time but she had also needed some of those cute SU! Holiday mini catalogs, which didn't ship until Sept. 1st. I just got them on Saturday. (
for those wanting a free one that had e-mailed me). So, I had some time on my hands, here is my tags:
That was a shot of one of my tags up close. I used Imaginsce Snag 'Em stamp. Since I had to make them as tags, I used the Artist Trading Card (ATC) format I found over at splitcoaststampers. Since I had some time, I decided to make a tag holder for it. So, I went over to Maria Bell's Christmas Stamping all year long site for some ideas. Here is an inside shot, with my tags.
Here is the outside, I used Martha Stewart Christmas punch.
I got the Cottage Christmas collection Imaginsce dsp over at J's Knicknacks. Hope my tag swap partner will enjoy it.
Thanks for visiting and hope you had a great weekend.
Hugs,
P.S.
Don't forget that the Tamiko's blog hop is still on until September 7 @ 11:59PM HST.
Aloha all~
Today is Thursday so that means we have another Teaser Thursday for Tamiko's. This time we were asked to create using Tamiko's colors: pink, brown & green. So, I thought what a fun challenge. I used Cupcake Anya and labels nestie to see what I could create. Here is what I came up with:
It was just my luck that Doodlebug had dsp made with those colors so I could enhance my card. hee-hee. Since it's still summer, I thought why not add some flowers & my new found butterflies.
Thank you for joining me again. Hope to see you again soon as I have a couple more creations to post in the upcoming days. Till then,
Hugs,
Aloha all~
Thank you for visiting me and hanging in there as I get back into crafting. It's been so hard to remember what to do...maybe it's called getting older, but I digress. I had so much fun trying to choose my stamp for this month's Asian theme that Linda chose. Here was my card to this month's partner, Janice which I had just sent out over the weekend.
I used the Kimono Kids stamp from SU! along with some Asian themed paper which I found over at Cute Stuff, along with that bright red cardstock. Please come back and watch me try to finish this month's projects.
Hugs,
Just a quick post to inform you of some exciting news from SU! The Holiday Mini Catalog officially launched today. Unfortunately, I did not receive my shipment. For those who indicated they wanted a FREE copy sent to them, I will let you know when I get them in...any day now.
Also, I wanted to show you what you can earn from SU! if you decide to become a demo under me between September 1 thru October 18, 2010 you will receive this beautiful Greenhouse Gale Craft Tote bag, which is normally reserved for purchase for demonstrators only. Feel free to contact me for further details.
Hugs,
Janis
