CHA Relay Day 3!

If you're here for the Bombshell HOP...scroll down for the next post...thanks!


Well hello you guys! Second post for today and that's about it...for today! LOL! Yesterday I posted 3 or 4 so I wont flood you with more. Just wanted to show you my card made for the continued CHA Relay. I've made it this far but I'm afraid I may be ending my run soon. My printer is running out of ink and I'm about to cry! :( That's why I'm selling some of my stuff in hopes I can make enough to at least buy some black ink. Speaking of...if you wanna check out my stuff for sale...go HERE!

Now onto my card! I made this baby with a head cold! I'm not 100% happy with it...but I do like it. FIRST...I was in a rush to print him that I miscalculated the size and made him a bit too big for what I had in mind. THEN I resized him...and mind you to the size I needed him...and it printed out faded. :( UGH gimme a break! So in the end...after about 4 hours...I came up with this! Next time I'll try taking some DayQuil BEFORE I attempt to work on anything with a cold. Dang California rain! BUT enough of my whining...I hope it's OK! After all...I love this little guy already and I'm happy I've gotten THIS far in the relay. Now I'm crossing my fingers to have enough ink to print out the next image as soon as I get it. *crossing fingers*

Alright...back to crocheting some stuff to sale. I'm making a bunny that's seriously kicking my butt because my fingers tend to cramp up when I'm working with tight stitches like the ones needed for Amigurumi. *OUCH* Hasta manana!

Farm Fresh Friday...on Thursday!

Hey all and Happy Christmas Eve! Just dropping in again really super quick to post my card for FFF on Thursday. Since tomorrow is Friday...I doubt too many will be around to play and what not...so this FFF has been pushed back. I hope you've been playing with Jessica's 12 days of sketches...awesome sketches so far! I wish I had more time to play...but I FINALLY had some breather time and now I'm just gonna rest my right hand after sooooo much crocheting in such short time. That's what I get from procrastinating! To those who've emailed me about custom crochet...I will get back to you VERY soon! Ok...so here is my card! I used Marlene Monkey by Marina Neira and made her up for Christmas. Once again I free-handed a little Christmas hat! :)

Now I want to take this time to wish you all a great Christmas and may it be a happy one surrounded by your loved ones. Stay safe and a huge hug from me to you! Merry Christmas!

TGIF...or in TGF land...

TGIFFF! Here I am again in another installment of Farm Fresh Friday! Today we have a sketch by the very awesomely talented Cindy! Once again...I will not keep you long. I'm actually typing this in to auto-pilot it because as you read this on Friday...I will be out...


Before I go...I have a question. Do you think my craft is good enough to sell...and if you didn't craft...would you buy it? I'm asking because I want to load up my Etsy store with the stuff I've made but don't want to add it if they wont sell...KWIM? I know...I'm probably as clear as mud...but you get the jist right?

Ok...I am off! Hope to see you play along with the farm! Upload your creations to the Galleria>Contests/Challenges>Farm Fresh Fridays>12 Days Sketch 1

Have a great day and come back on Saturday as I have an exciting (to me) announcement! :D I felt I was about to burst...well...I'm still waiting on one OK from another exciting piece of news! ;)

A K.I.S.S. from me on Farm Fresh Friday!

Hey all and welcome to another week at the Farm with a FRESH challenge! Today's challenge was to make a card and 'keep it simply shaped'...hence the K.I.S.S. No nesties or shapes were to be used to cut...just what you can make with your regular straight line trimmer! I had no problem with this one as I swing both ways...lol...shaped or straight! :P

I wont keep you long...so here's my card for the challenge! Hope to see you play! Remember to upload your challenge cards to the Galleria>Contests/Challenges>Farm Fresh Fridays>K.I.S.S.

Farm Fresh Friday at the Farm!

Hey all and TGIF! Or shall I say TGIFFF! Thank Goodness it's Farm Fresh Friday! ;) Today's FFF challenge at The Greeting Farm is to use the following colors! Take into mind though...if you don't have the exact same colors...please feel free to use whatever you have that's close to it. I mean duh...I didn't even have the colors... Can't wait to see your creations! Remember to upload to the Galleria>Contest/Challenges>Farm Fresh Friday's>CC1...




Here is the card I made for this challenge! I used this adorable guy from the set Sweet Message by Marina Neira for The Greeting Farm. I didn't have Kiwi Kiss or Baja Breeze so I opted for Cool Caribbean & Wild Wasabi. He is colored in with Copics and again I went a bit 'sew crazy' on this card. Back panels are embossed with Cuttlebug folders Swiss Dots & Distressed Stripes. Card is embellished with 6 gold brads.

Make sure you stop by to see what the other girls have done! Cheryl, Jessica, Kadie, Kim, Lisa, Lynda, Sandra, Cindy and Mercy. They have some fabulous cards to show you!!

Now on to some EXCITING news! Club Anya is having...

Thanks for stopping by and I apologize for not having too much blah blah. This cold is kicking my butt big time. Thank God there's no fever...but the body aches are SO there! Not to mention the AWFUL nasal constipation! I am feeling somewhat better...but not 100% yet. Still...I can NOT let this cold get in my way!

HUGS
