SOMETHING YUMMY FOR YOUR TUMMY

 HELLO FRIENDS

send me a virtual hug so the emptiness from not having my son around does not affect me too much.

we lost power during Irene and encountered closed roads, closed bridges and by the time we got to Boston it was almost time for him to go to a meeting. Our good byes were too short. He started his community services (FYSOP) on Tuesday and he is working with disabled children. he moved a week earlier to participate in this program. we stayed one more day around the city in case we had time to have dinner with him but it was not possible.

in our way home it all hit me, but by the time we got home i was doing better. i had 6 hours to moan, lol.

Something Yummy for your Tummy

5.5" x 4.25"

hehe---i am not pregnant---hehe

it is just a card, lol. i used the Wrap it Up cart for this one.

 the stork can be find on page #63 on the handbook and is image #43 on the overlay. it was cut at 4 inches.

the sun was hand-drew and the stork has 4 layers plus the patterned paper one.

the sentiment is from My Pink Stamper. It is in the Yummy-licious stamp set. the two asterisks are from Love-a-licious, also from My Pink Stamper (MPS). the foot border is also from My Pink Stamper--LOL--and is from the Sweet Baby clear stamp set. 

i am telling you, you can mix and match her stamps and even make your own sentiments with them--wink! they are so versatile!!!!!

the background paper was purposely made to look wrinkle, :)

and i do not know if you can see the thickness of the stork and clouds on this pic. I am loving the thickness you can acquire with a few more cuts adhered together---awesome look!

this is the inside of the card and the sentiment is also from the Sweet Baby clear stamp set from My Pink Stamper.

Hope you like it and and got to see the versatility of these stamps. this set of YUMMY-LICIOUS is meant to be used mostly with food items, baking the most but you can use them for a totally different occasion as i did here with my card

"Something Yummy for your Tummy"

indeed.

we had to get more bungee cords to pile up more totes on top :-) since the trunk was already full.

love you all!

soon i will be able to visit you too

 i love to browse your blogs and see what you are up to.

wohoo!

TRI-FOLD CARD CHALLENGE AT THE CUTTLEBUG SPOT

i am alive, lol. i was cleaning my scraproom and re-organizing again and lost track of days plus the weather is making me lazy..it always does. but...i am here with another challenge for  

The Cuttlebug Spot. 

this week are tri-fold cards and here is mine.

Hey Babe

5.5 x 11.50

score to make three panels of equal size.

the base for the card was cut diagonally and then used a paper punch for the hearts border.

 the sweethearts cricut cartridge was used for the image and cut at 3 inch high.

you can see where i embossed with two different cuttlebug embossing folders: the swiss dots on the birds and the distressed stripes for the hat. i also used a sizzix one called collage for the hat.

 the sentiment is from my pink stamper's, love-a-licious, is a  new stamp set, and the cute banner is from the cricut cartridge twinkle toes. i love this banner and i know is in another cart --or a very similar one--but can't remember right now.

below is the set i used from my pink stamper and if you want to see what other stamps she has, you can click HERE, and it will take you to her site.

LOVE-A-LICIOUS
