I made this for a quilt along I discovered a few months ago. I had a chance to sew this weekend and I'm nearly caught up! (It began in February.) You can find the patterns on <a href="https://sewincrediblycrazy.blogspot.com/">Sew Incredibly Crazy</a>. So far, the blocks are super cute! They have an outdoorsy theme and plenty of cute woodland animals so far. I have never appliqued like this before and I'm really enjoying it. Thanks, mom, for the light pad....it helps a ton!</div>

Happy Friday!! This was inspired by the <a href="http://papercraftcrew.com/pcc246-sketch-challenge/">Paper Craft Crew Challenge Sketch #246</a>. My daughter is really into cactuses right now. (BTW, we looked up the correct plural - just so we would know....and found either "cactuses" or "cacti" is correct...couldn't help ourselves!) I was happy to use these great Close To My Heart Stamps along with the Thin Cuts (coordinating) and copics to color the flower. The sketch was great because I feel like I get into a rut with card designs after awhile. :)<br />

A Pop-up Card to Thank a FriendHi! I've neglected my blog for a long time because even though I've been busily creating all this time, my iphone app I was using with Blogspot stopped working for me and I got frustrated and gave it up (if anyone has an app to recommend, I'd love to know about it).<br />
<br />
Anyway....wanted to share this happy friendship card in the challenge over at <a href="http://heather-bittenbythebug2.blogspot.com/2017/05/friends-forever.html">Bitten by the Bug 2</a>. Their theme is "Friends Forever". Love it :) I used the Artfully Sent cartridge from Close to My Heart. The pop-up cards are so much fun and my friends and family always love them. I used purple because it is a dear friend's favorite color.<br />

Hi Everyone,<br />
My crafty daughter, Joy, has been making and
selling these fun bracelets and I wanted to post a few pics for people
to see as samples of what she does. They are so much fun to mix and
match with different outfits. She will also be happy to do custom
orders: team or school colors, etc. Prices are $12 each or 3 for $30
for all the ones on the three-tiered stand (except the Orange Florida
bracelets--they're $15). The single-tier stand (last three photos)
bracelets are $15 each, but feel free to add them in to a 3 pack and
just tack on the $3. (For example, two $12 bracelets plus one $15 would
be $33 total.). Please let me know if you have any questions or custom
requests. If some people are interested, we may start a separate
Facebook for them. Thanks!<br />

I inked an embossing folder and ran it through for the background. Then stamped the sentiment and frame with the Close To My Heart stamp of the month set for August. I love how the frames and sentiments are interchangeable and you get multiple colors involved. The flower is from the stamp set, "A Budding Friendship".

Made this for a dear friend and it is soooo "her"! Can't wait to give it to her. I wanted to share since I love the way the embossed backdrop (Shield 7 from Embroidery Library) really lets the text be read so easily even on this crazy plush fabric. Takes about an extra 30 minutes of embroidery time, but so worth it, I think. :)Glenda Joyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13244023513326332658noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6619038430752834470.post-65937594928357809722015-09-11T12:35:00.000-07:002015-09-11T12:35:00.708-07:00"Love" Card<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

A simple card. Masculine yet romantic, I think. The hexagons are very trendy. This "Love" stamp comes with the new Artistry cartridge from Close to My Heart. I popped up the sentiment with a little bit of foam.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This sweet mason jar with flowers was just too cute. I cut the white shape from one of the layers from the Artistry cartridge as well as the image. Stickles and Glossy Accents give it a finishing touch.

This great cut is from Artistry. I added some glossy accents on the hearts.

This layer function is so much fun on the Artistry cartridge. I love the borders, too. Purple and green is a favorite color combo of mine and I added some stickles to the word "Love" to make it pop!

Made this crab card with Artistry. The sequins are also from CTMH. The sentiment is from Scrappy Moms Stamps. I think this little crab is on the beach at night with some sparkling starfish.

I've made several cards with the new "Artistry" cartridge from CTMH. Here is the first. Love this yummy donut and the sentiment, "Life is Sweet".

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I made these for my mom for Mother's Day. It was actually pretty difficult to find some nice blank placemats that weren't too thick to embroider.

The designs from </span><a href="http://www.emblibrary.com/EL/default.aspx"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Embroidery Library</span></a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> were so sweet and just reminded me of my mom.</span></div>

All of the cards in today's post are made by my daughter, Joy. I love crafting with her!</div>

I was very excited when my daughter (11) decided she loves to stamp!! She used some new stamps (and some of my sister's new stamps- thanks Regina) and got creative. Pinspired by pinterest, naturally. I like her penstitching, too. She thought her grandma Joan would appreciate the above card since she is an artist. :) It was made with "Brushstrokes" and "Happy to be Friends".</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We both love this adorable birthday cake made with the Brushstrokes stamp set from CTMH. Stickles on the flames:</div>

I love this idea she had to use an old, butterfly earring as an embellishment for this card. The beautiful border is from Creative Memories Border Maker System. The sentiment was from the CTMH "You Mean the World to Me" set.</div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">My husband is incredible. He really is the hardest worker around. He works in construction and has worn these type of work boots for as long as I've known him. When I saw this cake online about a month before Father's Day, I knew it was perfect. Joy, my 11 year old daughter, was totally on board. She would not let me drop it even after it turned out to be such a crazy week. :) I'm so glad she insisted!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"> This was by far one of the most ambitious surprise projects my daughter and I have attempted. We collected ingredients throughout the week, going to many different stores (i.e. a gas station for a candy necklace). We were soooo impressed with the results!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">It was much easier than it looks (though it was definitely a few hours of enlarging patterns and decorating).

I made this cute card using the "Around the Block" stamp set from Close to My Heart. Love how you can stamp all the elements individually. I popped it up with some foam strips. My friend (and neighbor) is baking some goodies to go with it and I embroidered a couple of dishtowels with the new family's last name and monogram on them. :)Glenda Joyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13244023513326332658noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6619038430752834470.post-73950195831725975272015-04-13T04:50:00.001-07:002015-04-13T04:50:47.430-07:00Frozen Birthday BannerMy sweet granddaughter just turned 4 and had a simple party at a park at the beach....I wanted to make a pretty, colorful banner to help her celebrate.<br /><br />I used Storybook for the letters and scalloped squares. <br /><br /><center><a href='http://photo.blogpressapp.com/show_photo.php?p=15/04/13/88.jpg'><img src='http://photo.blogpressapp.com/photos/15/04/13/s_88.jpg' border='0' width='640' height='480' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br />I found a free svg of Elsa and just used the silhouette and then added snowflakes from other cartridges (mostly the lovely December 25th cartridge).<br /><br /><center><a href='http://photo.blogpressapp.com/show_photo.php?p=15/04/13/89.jpg'><img src='http://photo.blogpressapp.com/photos/15/04/13/s_89.jpg' border='0' width='640' height='480' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br />Rhinestone sticker bling, of course!<br /><br /><center><a href='http://photo.blogpressapp.com/show_photo.php?p=15/04/13/90.jpg'><img src='http://photo.blogpressapp.com/photos/15/04/13/s_90.jpg' border='0' width='640' height='480' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br />Some sheer turquoise ribbon to tie together:<br /><br /><center><a href='http://photo.blogpressapp.com/show_photo.php?p=15/04/13/91.jpg'><img src='http://photo.blogpressapp.com/photos/15/04/13/s_91.jpg' border='0' width='640' height='480' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br /><br /><center><a href='http://photo.blogpressapp.com/show_photo.php?p=15/04/13/92.jpg'><img src='http://photo.blogpressapp.com/photos/15/04/13/s_92.jpg' border='0' width='479' height='640' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br />- Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone<br />Glenda Joyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13244023513326332658noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6619038430752834470.post-8914386008753548542014-12-30T07:39:00.001-08:002014-12-30T07:39:37.700-08:00Ctmh Happy to be Friends Occasions Cards<br /><br /><center><a href='http://photo.blogpressapp.com/show_photo.php?p=14/12/30/190.jpg'><img src='http://photo.blogpressapp.com/photos/14/12/30/s_190.jpg' border='0' width='640' height='480' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br />I love the new set of stamps from Close to my Heart called "Happy to be Friends Occasions".

I saw these knitted, cabled pumpkins on Pinterest and I absolutely had to make them. Do you ever get obsessed with the idea of creating a project or am I the only crazy one? :-)<br />
<br />

<a href="http://photo.blogpressapp.com/show_photo.php?p=14/11/22/181.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://photo.blogpressapp.com/photos/14/11/22/s_181.jpg" height="480" style="margin: 5px;" width="640" /></a></center>
<br />
Well, it turns out that this is a great kit from Mary Maxim with everything you need to make this project, except for the polyfil (or stuffing). I thought the kit was very reasonably priced especially since you make two pumpkins with it! I love all of the details on this project. I have always liked this burnt orange color, and the jute and burlap ribbon for the leaves are very sweet without being too country for me. :) Happy Fall!<br />
