Happy Birthday

How's about a guy birthday card. this is so simple, not a one layer but real close to it LOL,I used Heartfelt Creations 1223G Wild Life Retreat and HCPC3414 Belated Birthday Wishes. I stamped the image, colred it and matted it then attached it to the card base, stamped the sentiment below it right on the card base. Hope you like, know it's short but, since we have a new baby not much computer time. I'm really thanking God for Bill, he gets up during the night and takes him out so I can sleep. Praying it doesn't take to long to house break him, I'm using the create system. That's how I trained both Prissy and Bandit and if it's good enough for them, well it's good enough for Murphy! Yall have a great day and I'll catch up with ya later.

Murphy

Good Morning! Thought I'd post one more picture of Murphy and answer a few questions. He is what they call a Chiranian, part Chihuahua and part Pomeranian. He is also a Blue Merle, and can weight up to 10-12 lbs.

the way I understand that it is not necessary a good thing. he could be deaf or blind. right now neither. Just your normal wild puppy! LOL We all are still learning each other. I think he likes Bill more than me but thats okay too, he hangs right with him. The only thing I'm good for is taking him out and feeding him LOL. He'll play with me a few minutes then runs over to Daddy...........Being Bill will spend more time than me with him it really makes me happy. We decided on the name after trying alot of others on him. I like the name and was gonna name Bandit Murphy but Bill liked Bandit so it stuck. Nothing we tried we liked, nothing clicked, then I called him Murphy and I liked it, Bill still isn't real crazy about it but that's his name. Hopefully I'll get back to commenting tomorrow, I have got to clean house and do some laundry today for sure, and then to top the day off, my car won't start. Bill checked it out and think he knows what it s so we gotta go get that part today so lets hope he gets it running. Okay I'm gone!!! God Bless and have a wonderful day!

The Boy

Here is what Michelle found for me, he's adorable!!!! We haven't decided on a name yet....he has blue eyes........Let me know what ya think.

Belated Birthday Wishes

Morning, slept late this morning, it's almost 6AM. Felt good too, it's off to Winston again today, Bill has another appointment, so gonna make it fast. Made this card a few weeks ago, never got around to posting it until now, I used the Small Deckled Mega Retangles, Fancy Tags Two, HCPC3409 Tropical Floral Swirls and HCPC3414 Belated Birthday Wishes. I sponged a little here and there and tada............the card is ready for me to send to someone who I forgot to send a card to LOL.

When Heartfelt Creations released this set HCPC3414 Belated Birthday Wishes, I just knew it was just for me hehe. The inspriation for this card goes to a blog I ran across awhile back, (sorry, don't remember whose), I just liked the way she had used this embossing folder, "Flourished Frame". So here is what I came up with, I like the Deco Shells punch down the side. I also used HCPC3318 Daisy Patch Flowers and HCD703 Daisy Patch Die. The leaves are cut out using Foliage Die from Spellbinders. Pearls were placed in the center of the flowers to finish it off. That's it for now, gonna drink my coffee and comment on your blogs then get ready for work. Have a blessed day!!!!

Okay to answer the big question: Yes I will get another dog, only this time Bill says atleast 2, we are looking and want a small one. Big ones scare me hehe. It is worst on him being he is home alone all day so the sooner the better, we still look for Bandit at the top of the stairs, (he didn't do stairs) hehe, and when I roll over at night I feel to see where he is (then I remember), we will always miss him as we still do our first Pom Prissy. She was 8 when she died and now Bandit at 6. Okay, yall have a great day and I'll catch up with you later, God Bless!!

Trust in the Lord

Good morning.......I may make it, I took today off, so I'm gonna try and play today too, gotta get some business stuff done and then look out! I made this one the other day when I had the stamp stamp out, LOL sounds funny but you know what I mean. I made 4 cards yesterday but ya gotta wait to see those hehe. with this one I used several Heartfelt stamps, yes all I use are Heartfelt stamps, hard to believe there are others out there hehe.

HCPC3362 Angel Trumpet Flower

HCPC3323 Large Elegant Word

HCPC3405 Leaf Medley

HCPC3329 Pumpkin/Autumn Vines

HCPC3310 Trust in the Lord

I first made my background paper and stamped the word stamp onto the card stock, then stamped the Angel Trumpet stamp on top of the words. Around the edge I used #918-Old Gold Inka-Gold. I love that stuff,then I stamped the stamp image and continued stamping images inside each block. Placed it on brown card stock, cut out and attached on top of the back ground. I then stamped a leaf and used #912 Green Inka-Gold. It makes it appear shinny like Metalic or metal, wish you could see this is real life, the picture just doesn't do it justice. After everything was attached, I sprayed some of the home made shimmer mist I made on it. Now it sparkles and shines all over LOL. Okay thats it for now.............gotta run and get busy, I'll catch up with yall later, God Bless and have a wonderful day!
