You Know Me card...

This is a birthday card I made for my brother. I am embarrassed to say that his birthday was on the 16th and I'm just getting it done, but seeing that I'm late, I think it's fitting.

First I pulled out my striped paper and the card that was to be covered.



Covered it and cut it down to fit.



Working on the snail and the balloons.



The completed card.



I hope he like it. Now if I can just get it in the mail tomorrow.

So I've been seeing cupcakes everywhere. Especially cupcake cards. Not wanting to 'borrow' anyone else design, I worked up my own. I took a premade card and cut the corners off.


I next took a rectangle piece of paper, larger than the card and folded it accordian style. I used the popsicle stick to help crease the edges.


I cut the 'icing' free style. The icing was glued down first then the cupcake liner. Lastly, I added some flower sprinkles to the chocolate ones and used a cotton ball to ink the pink icing.

What Kind of Fruit Are You?




You Are a Pear



You are independent, intelligent, and a free thinker.

You can accomplish great things, especially when you do them on your own.



You are direct, honest, and sometimes even a bit brutal.

There's not much that gets in the way of you and your ambition.



While you are hard nosed, you do have a much sweeter side to you.

It takes times for you to soften toward someone, but once you do, you'll be their friend for life.

Card

I have so busy lately. But because of my dad's upcoming birthday...I put together this neat card. I love the paper that has sayings such as: 'Old guys rule; blast from the past; the older I get the better I was; king of the remote. I know he can take the joke.

Disney layouts

I've have been working for what seems forever on my Disney scrapbook. It's hard to believe that it's been 10 months since I was there. I thought I'd be farther along than now but I guess not. Ah well... here we go.

What Disney book wouldn't be complete with a picture of the castle?

Here is a close-up of Jaques. One of Cinderella's mice. This is a paper piecing I created. He's 14 pieces if I remember correctly. But isn't he cute?Meeting the bear.
Look closely (if you can) at the image in the circle and you'll see my bro puckering up to smooch Tigger.
