E.A.D Designs Blog Hop!

If you are just getting started, go back to the E.A.D Designs blog so you don't miss anything but hopefully you made your way here from Joanna's fabulous blog! 

I hope you had a wonderful Christmas with family and friends but we all know it can be stressful at the same time.  I made this card to show you how we deal with stress in my family.  Nothing is better than zoning out in front of a good video game (like pacman) to calm the nerves! hehe :D  I hope you are starting your holiday de-stressing process too.


The E.A.D Designs products I used are the *NEW* Mad Skills and Got Game Stickerz!

Other Supplies:
Washi Tape!
Unity Stamp Co Stars Stamp

I love the E.A.D Designs Owl peeking out from  behind my Scrabble tiles.

HAPPY CHRISTMAS EVE!

Cosmo Cricket Jolly by Golly


I love last years Cosmo Cricket Winter line! Don't get me wrong, I love this year's too, but last year's was just too stinking cute!  I made so many holidays cards with it this year.  Here is one that I added some E.A.D Designs Deck the Halls Stickerz on.  I also have a She's Crafty video using the same line today! It's over on my YOUTUBE page and the E.A.D Designs Blog!


Don't forget I have lots of stamps listed on EBAY right now! Some of them end today and the rest end tomorrow! Don't miss out on some super crafty steals!

E.A.D Designs Blog Hop!

Thanks for hopping along with E.A.D Designs!  I am first on the hop today so you are in the right place. 

Time sure does fly in the month of December!  Can you believe that Christmas is this week?!? I can't! While I don't have anything festive to share with you today, you could use a couple of these items as holiday gifts. 


Here is a Scrabble tile necklace featuring Pink Paislee Old School Paper and E.A.D Design Party Doodles Stickerz. This necklace is great for any coffee lovers you know.  This tile has already found a wonderful coffee loving home. :) 

Next up is more magnets! The magnets inside match the "invaders" on the front but the "Space Cadet" sentiment I used is from the new chillin stickerz.  Check them out, they are so fun! The great thing about giving magnet sets as a gift is that you can personalize them for the receiver. 

Lastly, I have a random birthday card.  I suppose you could make up a bunch of cards and place them into a gift basket and use them as a gift as well! This card feature MLS layovers and E.A.D Designs Sentiments Rub-ons.

Now continue on your way to see what our fabulous December Guest Designer, Andrea,  has in store for you.

Hi All! Things are starting to get crazy around here with the holidays QUICKLY approaching!  I wanted to share a fun card I made using washi tape and E.A.D Designs Stickerz.  The disco ball is from the "Party Doodles" and the celebrate sentiment is from the "Your B-Day" Stickerz.


I also listed a bunch of new and used stamps on EBAY!  I haven't sold anything on ebay before but you may want to take a peek!  There is Stampin' Up!, Unity, Hero Arts, Ippity, and CTMH goodness on there!

E.A.D Designs GO TO GAL Blog hop! - Betsy Veldman



 If you are just getting started, go back to the E.A.D Designs blog so you don't miss anything but hopefully you made your way here from Amy T's fabulous blog! Since I am last on the hop today you should know what's going on by now ;)  We were lucky enough to get to work with talented Betsy Veldaman today and have her join us in the E.A.D Designs fun! 

Here is Betsy's beautiful card that I drew my inspiration from:

I decided to use the same basic layout as Betsy by placing all of the images on the right side of the card.  I also wanted a PP that had a bold reoccurring pattern in the background...the paper on my card is by My Little Shoebox and goes perfectly with the E.A.D Designs Asian Flair Stickerz I used! The sentiment come from the Torendi Kawaii Rub-ons.

Have a wonderful week everyone!

E.A.D Designs December Color Challenge!

LOVE this months color theme! 


Here are the cute matching stickerz!

I decided to play along without using the color challenge stickerz (Did you know you can play along without using E.A.D Designs products if you don't have any yet?) and here is my card! 
Doodle Stickerz! :D They make me happy! I know I have said this before! LOL That giraffe is so adorable! The large white bracket is also an E.A.D Designs product. You can find them in the Rub-ons section!
Here is a close up view that shows the colors a little more accurately as well.

Pink Paislee Magnets


Isn't this Pink Paislee Sweetness pack so yummy?!  I keep finding so many good uses for it! 

This time I used it as the backings for some of my magnet sets. SO CUTE!
*stamps are by nikoart*

 and also to decorate the tin I placed them in! 

I really need more altoid tins!! ;) ;) 

You can find this yummy paper and many more Pink Paislee products are Torendi

Happy Hump Day!

E.A.D Designs Blog Hop Time!


 If you are just getting started, go back to the E.A.D Designs blog so you don't miss anything but hopefully you made your way here from talented Stephanie's blog! Also, a big warm welcome to December's guest designer Andrea

Ok, so I am kind of pushing the envelope with this month's theme of calendar/storage ideas but work with me. ;) LOL

So I'm sure you remember this cute little memo board I made on She's Crafty a couple weeks back using the Alice and Wonderland Stickerz and WallArt.  Well, like I said in the video, I got addicted to making magnets! I made up a few sets and will try to share them all later on during the month.

I made up a set of 3 magnets using the Wizard of OZ Stickerz. I wanted them to be all the friends Dorothy meets on her adventure in OZ. 

But then I got the bright idea to make a STORAGE (see..I'm tying into this months theme!!) container for the magnets.  So I decorated an Altoids tin with some PP, washi tape, MLS carboard letters, and more of the OZ stickerz.  I think it turned out so cute and makes the perfect little gift for a friend! 


Thanks for stopping by!

Now hop along and see what the fabulous Amy T is up to!


P.S. If you would love some more Altoids tins if you have any you are willing to spare! :) TIA!

Did I share this yet?

I don't think I did but Paige posted it along with so many other creative Thank You cards on the "CREATE" blog and I was so excited to see it there! 


I used some Pink Paislee paper and Thickers that I got from Torendi, a tiny bit of bling, and done! I just think that the pattern of the paper really sets off the card.  This card was mailed to my dear friend Gina!

E.A.D Blog Hop!

 If you are just getting started, go back to the E.A.D Designs blog so you don't miss anything but hopefully you made your way here from Amy's fun blog!

Today I have a couple random but bold and easy cards to share. 

On this first card I used a sticker from the Your B-Day Stickerz and placed it under a clear frame. Then I added a bunch of bling, tied a bow, and called it good!  

This card uses the Thank You sentiment from the Sentiments Vinyl Rub-ons sheet.  Then I inked the edges and applied all the glittery flowers and butterfly.  So quick and simple! 

Keep on hoping to see what the talented Amy T is up to! :)

Scrabble Tile FRAMES!

As most of you know I went a little crazy creating with Scrabble Tiles but then one day I got this fun idea in my head and went with it.  I LOVE the way it turned out!  I also love that I will be able to swap out the photo after every trip we take to Disneyland! (Can you tell my girls were a little tired and hot that day?? We aren't used to California weather anymore.)


I even hand cut and stitched the little felt hearts too.

I am currently working on making more frames for a holiday trunk show I will be attending in Portland but I thought I would let my blog readers have first dibs.  If anyone out there is an avid Disney lover like us or knows someone who is, these frames will make the perfect holiday gift.  Please leave me a comment or send an email and I will get you more details on price and colors.  Please note that every frame will be unique because no two tiles are the same! 

Thanks for stopping by!

JOY!


Look at this fun color challenge! I love all these photos..I spy Washi Tape! ;) 

I was flipping thru my stack of E.A.D Designs Stickerz  and noticed that the Celebrate the Season Stickerz matched the colors for this challenge! I made a card similar to this one HERE but these ornaments are so easy to make adorable cards with! 
Here is a little tip too.  Only one ornament comes with a chain, so I just cut it into two pieces and hid the ends under the yarn! :) 

I hope you find time to play along for a fabulous E.A.D Designs Prize! 

On a completely random note: I forgot to share my halloween photo!  I have seen so many other adorable little mario brothers around blog land, I wanted to share our photo too! :D


:D

E.A.D Designs Blog Hop!!


Hey! I'm first on the Blog Hop Today!  Be sure to check out with E.A.D Designs blog to see what's going on in the world of vinyl (did you ever notice they have a monthly coupon code on the right side bar?!) and now on with the hop!

The other day I had like 6 cards to mail out! EEK!  I always turn to my trusty Stickerz and Torendi products to bust out some fun cards! 

This card was for my brother in laws birthday! I don't make cards for boys often but this card turned out pretty hip! The paper is from the Pink Paislee Old School Collection and I used 3 different E.A.D Designs products. The "cool" dude is from the Punk Doodles, the "scribble" are from the Music Doodles and Happy Birthday is on the Sentiments Rub-ons sheet. I know I have said this before but I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Doodles! oh yeah, and the glitter letters are by Sassafras!

This card I was just experimenting with some plum and cranberry washi tape! I added on the E.A.D Designs Thank You sentiment and it was done! This card would be perfect to mass produce and you customize it with the color of tapes you choose! 

Ok, before I send you off, I just wanted to give you a quick reminder that Torendi has a challenge ending tomorrow and nobody has entered!!  The holiday planning is upon us and everyone is busy busy busy, but if you can find the time to play, you have really good odds of winning! :) 

Ok, off you go to the oh so wonderful Amy T's blog! ENJOY!

E.A.D Designs COLOR CHALLENGE - Retro Christmas!



I LOVE THESE COLORS!! Especially for Christmas...I want that little pink tree! It reminds me of when I was little, my parents would get me my own little pink flocked tree for my room! :)

I hope you play along with the E.A.D Designs Color Challenge this month!  You could win a $20 gift certificate to the store!!!

Here is what I came up with.  I was trying to make it look like a window display...with the stickerz under the plastic frame and the lights on top. 

Here is a full look at the Retro Christmas Stickerz! Aren't they fun??



And this would be all I am seeing lately!  I think I may start dreaming about scrabble!  Check back soon to see what I am up to!
