So I had to fess up why the Angry Birds were taking over the living room.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">And he immediately requested the Mighty Eagle because, after all, "he's the best one, mom!" LOL </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I wasn't sure I was going to be successful with him, but I have to say, I think he's my favorite one so far. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-SPaNquGm5aY/TwOb2wMv6GI/AAAAAAAAAxo/gybHE5-Cfbs/s1600/164311086374525718_66zpuH3s_c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-SPaNquGm5aY/TwOb2wMv6GI/AAAAAAAAAxo/gybHE5-Cfbs/s320/164311086374525718_66zpuH3s_c.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">And can I just say again, how much fun it is working with felt! I love the clean lines. I've been cutting out each felt piece by hand (since I don't want to break my Cricut trying to do it that way) and then sewing them, again by hand, with a simple blanket stitch. This is going much faster than I first anticipated. </span><br />

As he's grown, so has his phases. He has had a Thomas the Tank one, Bob the Builder and Wall-E. His newest love is Angry Birds. But who doesn't, right?</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">So this year, instead of buying him one, I'm going to make it. Here are the first two birds so far. The birds are made out of felt. I am then going to sew them on fleece squares. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

After getting started I regretted not doing this as a sew-along. But I'm not so far along that you wouldn't be able to catch up pretty quick. I made both of these appliques over the last two days. That includes searching down the pictures to use as a guide.<br />
<br />
Anyone interested? Just let me know.<br />

When I saw this challenge on<a href="http://www.pagemaps.blogspot.com/"> PageMaps</a> I knew immediately what I wanted to do.<br />
<br />
Have you seen the Smurf movie yet? It's very cute. Be forewarned though. If you're sensitive about magic or spells, there is a LOT of it in this movie. I don't remember magic being a part of the original cartoon.<br />
<br />
But here's my card for Becky's contest. Hope you like it.<br />

It's only August. But the Boy and I have started the school year and it has me in the mood for fall. I can smell the gingerbread pumpkin cookies coming from the kitchen already................sigh.<br />
<br />
And let's face it, I live in Florida. The weather is going to be like this - well - probably until next January. So I say let's start fall early this year!<br />

Aren't these pumpkins cute? I just love them! And they were so easy to make. They can be made either with a lid, like I did, or as a decoration. LOVE IT!<br />

So I thought I'd share what I made for a couple of online spring contests.<br />

After opening the card there is a cute little surprise on the inside.... bunny finger puppets!<br />
<br />
To make the card base I used my Sure Cuts a Lot program to measure out a rectangle 7" x 10" . I then aligned 3 holes at the 5 1/2" line. The holes are about 3/4" round. After the base is cut, score it along the 5" line. This will give you a 5x7 card base with the 3 holes for the bunnies.<br />
<br />
I then cut out felt in this shape and sewed them together to make the finger puppets.<br />
<br />

It was my daughter's idea to glue on the wiggle eyes. It was a nice touch. <br />

As always, thanks for stopping by and leave some love so I know you were here.<br />

But I'm very biased where they're concerned.<br />
<br />
But Wings Workshop On The Go from this month's <a href="http://www.crafters10.blogspot.com/">Crafters 10!</a> is beautiful too! As soon as I opened this kit and saw the incredibly rich and bold colors, I knew exactly what picture I was going to use. I was also excited for all of the little surprises in the kit. Check out the little button brads I used in the middle of the flowers. Aren't they awesome?!! There were so many "extras" in this kit and I can't wait to play with them all.<br />
<br />
Another wonderful surprise was using the spray pen. The picture of the layout just couldn't capture the awesome affect of this spray pen. It has a pearl shimmery shine to it that's just so wonderful. I love it. Wondering how it's done? Make sure to check out the video on the <a href="http://www.crafters10.blogspot.com/">Crafters 10!</a> blog page!<br />
<br />
The birdcage, swirls and flowers were made using the Cricut cartridge Serenade and the butterflies are from the cartridge Bloom. I added extra dimension by inking the edges with coordinating CTMH inks.<br />

I loved how the accents turned out so much that I just had to make another one for a card.<br />

The roses. little blue flowers and leaves were made using a pattern cut out with the Cricut and SCAL. Again, I inked the edges with coordinating CTMH inks.<br />

I'm seeing them everywhere! Which is okay because they are so cute. I recently came across a blog where a fabulously crafty mom had made some owl pillows for her daughter's party. I just had to give them a try!<br />
<br />
Fortunately I have an incredible husband with some mad computer skills. He helped me design a pattern, we printed it and got started. So here's what we came up with -<br />

One of the reasons I use it so often is because I love the 3-dimensional look I can get with the paper piecing. But after a fantastic sale of Cricut cartridges for just $9.99, I couldn't pass a sale like that up. It made me take a second look at the Cricut cartridges I had. And instantly I started seeing all kinds of possibilities. <br />
<br />
I made the fuschia for this card using the Accent Essentials cartridge.<br />
<br />

<br />
I have always had a love of fuschia. My first full-time job was at a B&B in California while I was in college. It had fuschia hanging from all the balconies and it was just so beautiful.<br />
<br />
Okay, so how did I make the flowers? The patterns from Accent Essentials I used are listed as<br />
<br />
* Accnt6S/Blackout @ 1" in green<br />
* Accnt31S @ 2" in purple<br />
* Accnt33S @ 3" in red<br />
* Accnt35S @ 3" in red<br />

<br />
The next step is to ink the edges. You'll then want to cut out the center of the scallop shape and the sun-looking shape.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4a9aY7d4vHdgl6K9w325mj_qJNQ-YUUev8rU1mHzkHcw_CYVNdKSxKh1LksWTQ0yPsOWUbXY4CiMSzmFICgbs4fHXeYZU93b0HdKeClr8ZgL8Yg4wsdElol6X64Wxij-QZ3eq0bJTjXj2/s1600/fuschia+3.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="212" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4a9aY7d4vHdgl6K9w325mj_qJNQ-YUUev8rU1mHzkHcw_CYVNdKSxKh1LksWTQ0yPsOWUbXY4CiMSzmFICgbs4fHXeYZU93b0HdKeClr8ZgL8Yg4wsdElol6X64Wxij-QZ3eq0bJTjXj2/s320/fuschia+3.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br />
<br />
Now you'll want to roll the "sun" and the scallop. It's easiest to do using tweezers.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2P1istTJsOsPNkfLjqk1cI4b4wIzBjEicm1v9dhjF7EsGuLXTtx8-KbVrLOTfuku3g-0uG_ffielaUTjSiaUjW7Xp_GVAwCHPlr8n0mcEbu10CDE2rHsect7BFiKzL6P3TYzpssLnna75/s1600/fuschia+5.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="212" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2P1istTJsOsPNkfLjqk1cI4b4wIzBjEicm1v9dhjF7EsGuLXTtx8-KbVrLOTfuku3g-0uG_ffielaUTjSiaUjW7Xp_GVAwCHPlr8n0mcEbu10CDE2rHsect7BFiKzL6P3TYzpssLnna75/s320/fuschia+5.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br />

Glue the end of the "sun" piece. Then you will glue this into the middle of the curled scallop piece.<br />

My husband and I just celebrated our 18th wedding anniversary! Wow, has it really been that long?<br />
<br />
Most people use this time of year to reflect on the past year. Boy, do I have a lot of things to reflect on. To say this year hasn't been easy is an understatement. It hasn't been all bad, but I am glad 2010 is coming to a close!<br />
<br />
So let's start with that - 2010. <b>2010 guys</b>!! Wasn't this the year of civilian space travel, flying cars, pop a pill in the microwave and, waalaa! a full turkey dinner done in just minutes! Where's my jet-pack or my robotic dog? We don't have any of that. Things have sort of stayed the same. We DO have cell phones taking over the entire planet, just add arms and legs to the Iphone and you've basically got IRobot - Can you tell I'm an Iwidow? I'm one step a way from becoming an Angry Bird myself. I wouldn't mind Will Smith jumping in and saving me from the dangers of Doodle Jump. <br />
<br />
(Oh, sorry honey, this started as an anniversary blog didn't it? Focus...focus)<br />
<br />
So Happy Anniversary to my wonderful husband of 18 years! It's been a wonderful, crazy ride!<br />
<br />
Congratulations to my beautiful daughter who graduated from high school a full 6 months early and was full time pioneering while doing it! I'm very proud of you!<br />
<br />
Congratulations to my wonderful son who overcame his incredible shyness, got up in front of our whole congregation and did his first bible reading like a pro! Way to go!<br />
<br />
Good bye 2010! I'm glad you're over. And if you see Will Smith, tell him my husband wants an Ipad. I may require his services soon!Tiffanyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15874753785759497937noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1505639255891947803.post-21649868026983441762010-12-15T05:32:00.000-08:002010-12-15T05:50:03.607-08:00TLS Designs is now on Facebook!<span style="font-weight:bold;">Isn't the internet just awesome!</span> <br /><br />My husband and I have owned several different businesses during our years of marriage. The first thing you learn about any business is "advertise, advertise, advertise"! In the good 'ol days we spent a LOT of money getting our name out there through radio ads, television ads and trade shows. It was all about networking.<br /><br />The same thing holds true today - It's not what you know, it's who you know.<br /><br />Fortunately today, we don't have to spend all that money to get our name out there. It just takes a little elbow grease (or in this case - decent typing skills) and due diligence. <br /><br />Which brings me back to my original thought for today. The internet is awesome! <br /><br />I have created a Facebook fan page for my internet store TLS Designs. I would love to have some followers. You don't even have to leave my blog! Just click on the "Like" button on the left. <br /><br />I am now following all the blogs that are following me. See? Networking!! And I would love to have some more Networked blogs as well. It doesn't take very long at all to set up so if you haven't already, set one up! <br /><br />Thanks again for visiting and please leave a message after the beep..................Tiffanyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15874753785759497937noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1505639255891947803.post-72590443452073636942010-12-08T10:32:00.000-08:002010-12-08T11:08:26.607-08:00I love a good challenge.........<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjnx6vJ3a9D-uDka4TpCLl0eZQltFpjeqoc5SSHSEBvXK26R8bSpdVoZPQHb5n8pqQc6Z3YlxRhQh1w2Ay4cfLhwiNduzoT7YQl8mQQvtN2k_bXHSdXm7-fGL7Vito61W47dLWqbX_kyRh/s1600/MLScardsketch.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 230px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjnx6vJ3a9D-uDka4TpCLl0eZQltFpjeqoc5SSHSEBvXK26R8bSpdVoZPQHb5n8pqQc6Z3YlxRhQh1w2Ay4cfLhwiNduzoT7YQl8mQQvtN2k_bXHSdXm7-fGL7Vito61W47dLWqbX_kyRh/s320/MLScardsketch.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5548383454981286610" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOzxCfG8Bw4qoseZjCjqFavy9ydMgMJv4zzbalwhxv0IbXOedn4GHUPB2TpY5b7RvYgJlc5D5BT1am1NaHCVfMTuUis8k5XjV_v_fgt3cbYbc2srLOj25a7j9ZGTY660t70d6XoZofsNEP/s1600/DSCF8531.JPG"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOzxCfG8Bw4qoseZjCjqFavy9ydMgMJv4zzbalwhxv0IbXOedn4GHUPB2TpY5b7RvYgJlc5D5BT1am1NaHCVfMTuUis8k5XjV_v_fgt3cbYbc2srLOj25a7j9ZGTY660t70d6XoZofsNEP/s320/DSCF8531.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5548383450544788482" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJLT7s1_V2NsmaFi8zJlwuaJPlWAx8y_KLZ565Y4wKNDjZlOEK1MTpfNTH2NLaG72yrG-wkMWwirOC6DoU1ikkPqHFfaQ7ZLZFaZe2RxpNjisD8qyBO8tew5icuc2TSJqKu9037EQnxPCa/s1600/DSCF8534.JPG"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJLT7s1_V2NsmaFi8zJlwuaJPlWAx8y_KLZ565Y4wKNDjZlOEK1MTpfNTH2NLaG72yrG-wkMWwirOC6DoU1ikkPqHFfaQ7ZLZFaZe2RxpNjisD8qyBO8tew5icuc2TSJqKu9037EQnxPCa/s320/DSCF8534.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5548383443569106178" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuMLdRW4QwlrcB-SnL7l7FDxTSq662xncbO__1792mrN0SQgwHfH4EK5OGBU6YM_bspNdtL68xdkhANit7FUajEBEIHWkONoJC0zPqX1n_LFow28Di23rMfsvfQVnpgi_MuqfXPvDPOenp/s1600/DSCF8535.JPG"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuMLdRW4QwlrcB-SnL7l7FDxTSq662xncbO__1792mrN0SQgwHfH4EK5OGBU6YM_bspNdtL68xdkhANit7FUajEBEIHWkONoJC0zPqX1n_LFow28Di23rMfsvfQVnpgi_MuqfXPvDPOenp/s320/DSCF8535.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5548383434125745938" /></a><br /><br /><br />......... especially when they include really cool prizes.

I've been playing around with ribbon again and just love the look of these roses. <br /><br />If you like challenges, go check out their cool <a href="http://heart2heartchallenges.blogspot.com/">website</a>! This week's prize is CTMH's Triple Play Kit. I was not able to get one for myself when they were available, so it would be so cool to win one! <br /><br />Thanks for stopping by and hope you have a great weekend :)Tiffanyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15874753785759497937noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1505639255891947803.post-46541105620228430442010-11-23T11:24:00.001-08:002010-11-23T11:51:41.593-08:00SVG Templates for CardsOkay, so let me just start out with this disclaimer as I know there will be some who will get their panties in a bunch. THESE ARE NOT COPYRIGHTED! Phew, okay...got that out of my system.<br /><br />The designs (which are original artwork) in the books are copyrighted and therefore protected. However, nobody can copyright, or patent, an existing shape such as a circle, triangle, even folder shapes. Therefore, I'm not breaking any laws here.<br /><br />There is a button to the left that says SVG Templates. That will link you to where the files are and you can download them from there<br /><br />Because I want these to be Cricut/SVG ready, I have removed all writing, including instructions. Therefore if you want the instructions - BUY THE BOOK :)<br /><br />I have also removed the score lines on the envelopes.<br /><br />And lastly, if you open a file that's titled with 3x3, you should know that it isn't necessarily going to automatically open as 3x3 in size. You will need to adjust the size in the program itself. I've kept these in the title so you know what template it is. Simply adjust the width and height of the shape within the SCAL program.<br /><br />For those shapes that DO NOT have the sizes in the title, but you want to cut it the right size for the pattern, the recipes in the books have the sizes listed. <br /><br />Well, I think that's everything! Please be patient with me as I work on these templates and get them listed. <br /><br />Thanks for visiting and have a great day!Tiffanyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15874753785759497937noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1505639255891947803.post-88567230139957059022010-11-13T09:24:00.000-08:002010-11-13T09:41:51.965-08:00Another H2H Challenge!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgRTExOIY_JEDAvoARxX_5z_pMTdSRJhjgU2QtInAnkbIJfZ1u9a1yQyamyhqRk3Rtvi8wqaicNiBiry4e02gbTqk7gDg0pAdjnnXRGM9YoSfB0rpSjzuqr-spyV2Psp9xSaOq11Lz2eqpR/s1600/BootCard.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgRTExOIY_JEDAvoARxX_5z_pMTdSRJhjgU2QtInAnkbIJfZ1u9a1yQyamyhqRk3Rtvi8wqaicNiBiry4e02gbTqk7gDg0pAdjnnXRGM9YoSfB0rpSjzuqr-spyV2Psp9xSaOq11Lz2eqpR/s320/BootCard.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539087581459601170" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgig3xQ4VmIG6Qa3X-JPppjQajpWHMPa7Ay9NJ2L_bBOWLW_a0WeZwLbDQ3neNqzVxswN3u149hGQDZHtJJ-JQVG-dikntMps5Xn6LKMSLwdYizhhTUJy9H02KDyeUm2AjskuCQoZWlq46m/s1600/BootCard+%25282%2529.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgig3xQ4VmIG6Qa3X-JPppjQajpWHMPa7Ay9NJ2L_bBOWLW_a0WeZwLbDQ3neNqzVxswN3u149hGQDZHtJJ-JQVG-dikntMps5Xn6LKMSLwdYizhhTUJy9H02KDyeUm2AjskuCQoZWlq46m/s320/BootCard+%25282%2529.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539087573867924498" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9ukHkjfoOvf3rSs9V16AcETVYvsp1JzezVYoOCLsEYnXRIN5OfaDFzDkKt_H8E6Q-MCMo7Cxye7LotzO4YmSkHglXFgp2UTPNBYG3f8SlGG2auiZIpYBiy-S8bXjC61hwzTji5jnFz7Rg/s1600/BootCard+%25281%2529.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9ukHkjfoOvf3rSs9V16AcETVYvsp1JzezVYoOCLsEYnXRIN5OfaDFzDkKt_H8E6Q-MCMo7Cxye7LotzO4YmSkHglXFgp2UTPNBYG3f8SlGG2auiZIpYBiy-S8bXjC61hwzTji5jnFz7Rg/s320/BootCard+%25281%2529.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539087564510730994" /></a><br />The <a href="http://heart2heartchallenges.blogspot.com/">Heart2Heart</a> challenge this week was an "out of shape" card.

The challenge was to use CTMH products and make a card any shape except a rectangle. Lots of fun!!<br /><br />Hope you like it, and please leave a comment.

Remember these? If you open it one way the gift card or money is on one side. Close it and open it again and it "magically" appears on the other side. I showed this to my kids and they were <span style="font-weight:bold;">wow'ed</span> by it. I guess they've never seen them before. Are they a thing of the past? Well, as they say - everything old is new again, right?<div><br />These were super easy and fun to make. I hope my pictorial makes sense.</div><br /><br />You'll need - <br /><br />2 pieces of cardstock 3 1/4" by 5 1/2"<br />4 pieces of patterned paper 3 1/4" by 5 1/2" <br />3 pieces of ribbon cut 4" each<br /><br />Lay down both pieces of cardstock side by side. In the picture I have them marked A and B. (You'll want to cover your pieces with patterned paper <span style="font-weight:bold;">before</span> laying down the ribbon)<br /><br />Lay down two pieces of the ribbon on side B. Tape down (I used scotch tape) right side of the ribbon to the back of B cardstock. Next, tape down left side of the ribbon to the back of side A cardstock.<br /><br />Make sense so far?<br /><br />Now you'll do the same with the other ribbon. Lay it across side A cardstock. Tape the left side of the ribbon to the back of cardstock A. Next, tape the right side of the ribbon to the back of cardstock B.<br /><br />Still with me?<br /><br />Now flip it over and cover with the other patterned paper. Decorate the front however you wish and WaaLaa! A magic wallet card!!<br /><br />As always, thanks for visiting and leave a note so I know you were here!Tiffanyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15874753785759497937noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1505639255891947803.post-27778681108451573932010-11-08T10:38:00.000-08:002010-11-08T11:10:24.019-08:00Making videos is hard!!!!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIVpSvRB8lc2468X9Q18Uz0eKdHNhpWZYmJ_txXRO-JMSOO9PTztNKzdYkoIyu0xCkB7haYdUsYHTzqsjeb3kbRLpAVhDPlw2ud2GwnxymCC4YXRLyIHQ13U9PdXmtnc_1IzbmpHvcMXL1/s1600/purple+card+004.jpg"><img style="float:right;

If I had continued in my efforts, this card would not be on here till next year sometime. So I hope my pictures and explanations will make sense.<br /><br />The small purple paper flowers and leaves were cut out with my Cricut and SCAL files. I then inked the edges of the flowers with Plum Purple and the edges of the leaves with Garden Green. I used a bone folder to create the "veins" in the leaves. LOVE how they turned out and will definitely be doing that a lot more.<br /><br />So on to the organdy flowers. These were done with the CTMH organdy ribbon. <br /><br />I've used the red thread for contrast but of course you are going to want to use the same color as your ribbon.<br /><br />I use about 18" of ribbon for these flowers.<br /><br />1) Bend over a small amount of ribbon to make a tail.<br />2) Start a simple gathering stitch <br />3) continue the gathering stitch all the way across, gathering it as you go<br />4) When you get to the end, bend over another small amount of ribbon for an end tail<br />5) Now slowly push ribbon up the thread to make your flower, pinching the two tails together<br />6) Put a couple of stitches through the two tails to hold it together and you've got a flower!<br /><br />I use hot glue to attach these to my card. <br /><br />As always thanks for coming by for a visit and please leave a comment so I know you stopped by. I will be doing a blog give away very soon for all my followers, so if you like my blog, follow along with me!<br /><br />Thanks again!!Tiffanyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15874753785759497937noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1505639255891947803.post-53443088115736541622010-08-26T12:58:00.000-07:002010-08-26T13:36:32.200-07:00Trying to use up some old stuff..........<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaNb3xbTWGPV4bkpD8dl2hD7cEgs7Jl8e4FkPybJTc2XpfoI8Z7llGAC3qiQgbpwoA-TfXZzqn5BUaaXA8IWnNPi1js2gcFmyPGlTx_phLINVi8f2dpSBiBuUjk_jngeODuIfGX4o_F8Ml/s1600/M&Mlayout+(3).jpg"><img style="float:right;

It amazes me how far one CTMH paper pack will go. <br /><br />Here are a couple more layouts I've been working on. It seems like now that it's getting closer and closer to me returning to work, my creativity came back into full gear. Where was it when I had all of this time off? Oh well, I'll enjoy it while I can.<br /><br />The details: The Chip and Dale came from an SVG file I got from Mardenz (free I might add. Got to love free stuff). The insanely cute kitties are from an SVG file I bought from MyScrapChick. The eyelashes were a challenge, but I love how they turned out. The M&M was some leftover stuff I found going through my stash. I originally planned on it being a card, but it kept evolving until it turned into a layout with a mini-album attached to it.<br /><br />As always, please leave a comment so I know you were here. I will be doing some blog candy soon, so become my follower and stayed tuned. Thanks for visiting!Tiffanyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15874753785759497937noreply@blogger.com2
