Twisted Sketch # 97

It's time for Twisted Sketches and this one is a fun one

The twist this week is MEDIUM any how, any way

My Layout is of a picture that was taken this past New Year's eve. Hawaii just past a law making it illegal to set fireworks off on Oahu(excluding commercial use...what's up with that??? I don't know). We always had fireworks so this being the last year we had to make it BIG and the kids had a BLAST!!!...and that's why my title is "the last BANG".

As for the Twist this week I took Medium as using different types of scrapbooking mediums...example: newspaper print, paint, mod podge, ink, stamp, chipboard, ribbon...make of it what you will. Don't forget to head on over to TWISTED SKETCHES to check out the sketch. It's a fab, one as always!!!

A sunny Squiggle stamp day

It's a bright sunny day here in Hawaii. Perfect day for the beach...(where me and my tribe will be very soon :) and also a perfect day to post this little card...



This is the brand spanking new Orange Bird Studio "Happy Sun" digi stamp...find him here Digi stamp: "Squiggle stamps", Stamp: background & saying "hero arts", letters "Martha Stewart" Ink: ColorBox



Saw this little digi stamp and he instantly warmed me up...feel the warmth...For this card I cut him out and popped him up with 3d tape. His face is colored with copics (y11 & y15) and gilterfied with sakura glitter pen...because what's a sun without glitter???


Don't forget to check out all the other new digis over at the Squiggles and Giggles blog. The other awesome DT gals are really putting them to good use :)

Cricut Cardz Challenge's Easter blog hop day!

Today's the day to get your Easter crafting juices flowing.

If you haven't heard the word here's what's going on....

The Cricut Cardz Challenge is having an "Easter Blog Hop" with the design team putting up some awesome inspiration and hiding some goodies along the way...because what's Easter without some sweets??? So if your starting with me then click on the Cricut Cardz link HERE and start from there. But if you hoped on over from "Jennifer" blog then your on the right bunny trail

My project is a little basket for all those yummy goodies and a matching nameplate card

Cricut: "tags, bags, boxes & more", "Create a Critter", "Celebrations", Pattern Paper: Pebbles "happy go lucky"


Love the little birdies and of course it's from "create a critter" and so is their nest. The box is the nut cup witch is such a cool shape...love that box too!!! and I had to give these guys a little flag and that is from the oldie but goody "celebrations" cart. it's the banner cut and it already has two holes on each side so all you have to do to make it into a flag is poke a stick through it.


Now on to the goodies...

Hope not to disappoint those chocolate addicts out there (me included) but this Easter goody ain't of the sweet kind. I've got a brand new "celebrations" cart. for one luck lady out there...Love this cartridge, in fact this was the first one I ever bought...and I used it in this project. So who wants some yummies for their Crucut??? All you have to do is leave me a message telling me your favorite Easter goodies...hummm mines would have to be chocolate, chocolate, & chocolate!!!


Ok Cricut hoppers your not done yet. There's more awesome inspiration and goodies to be had. Your next stop is Eve happy hopping!!!
