Vintage Anya

Vintage Anya

I am so giddy I cannot contain myself. I know, I know, I'm not dead, haven't crafted a while, had couple of major dance events and just really didn't have time to even slow down and breath.

But why I'm so giddy is because I got this stamp from The Greeting Farm. I have to say, they're cute and vintage-y looking. I'm very much into vintage stuff, so this is a perfect marriage for me. Plus, she's just adorable.

What else is neat, is that I made this card last night and already have someone to send it to. Lolly at Lolly Chops is doing a card drive for a friend of hers who's going thru cancer treatment. What a nice friend. If anything happens to me, I wish I have a friend like that that keeps my spirits up.

Anyway, I just adore this card because of that little Anya... Just too cute, so cute that you just wanted to squeeze.

Supplies:
Card by SU
Patterned Paper by Basic Grey's

Flower by Joann's

I'm not dead... I promise!

I know I'm a big o' slacker, but if you are here in my shoes, you felt like you're on a carosel that is constantly spinning and things are always changing and moving.

Since I have no work to show, I'll post some cool stuff I've seen:

I love Hero Arts and A Muse, so it's super awesome that they have a Designers Swap: http://heroarts.com/blogs/club/2010/03/24/watch-it-wednesday-new-feature/

I was introduced to the Kwernerdesign Blog: http://www.kwernerdesign.com/blog/?p=3096 She even posts YouTube vids.

I *heart* Shrinky Dinks, esp the ones doesn't need an oven to do, now you can make jewlery too. I use it to make wine charms: http://becreative.cornishheritagefarms.com/?p=2102

Hope to show something next week. Stay tune!

I know I've been incommunicado lately. But with good reasons, I've been helping a national dance event. You can see some dance videos here, no, I'm not in them, but they're still awesome nonetheless.

The other thing I want to share is some awesome projects from blogs that I've been keeping up with:

Here's one by TCP: Their Project of the month. Did you know that their site also have it converted to PDF in case you want to save it to do later?

The other is a Stubby Carrot by Julia Aston. It's super cute, just in time for Easter and your jelly beans. I *heart* Starburst Jellybeans.

So, go check them out. Hope to be back w/ projects soon!

Taking a break...

Hi everyone. I didn't abandon this blog. Life got hectic and it's easier to take care of them than do stuff for me. Plus, I have 2 dance events coming up that will definitely eat up all my free time to create. So, I got nada... But I'll pop in w/ links and stuff...

So, stay tune. Think of it as me taking an extra long Spring Break. Except, in real life, I am wishing that I am taking a real Spring Break. Hmm...
