My Joy and my Heart's delight!

Hi everyone! another post this week!!!

I was inspired by the colors in CSI's case file this week

it looks so pretty to my eyes

and CC's sketch this week was very lovely so I combined the 2

 

 

Using CSI specifications I needed several things besides the 5 colors

for my evidence I used

snowflakes, circular objects, dry embossing

I sanded the bottom of my "snow globe"

I hope you remeber my Luna, sweetheart of mine, guess I am in a snowglobe mode, LOL

She was wearing a Pink bow on Christmas Eve and was quietly resting in one of my cushions.

next evidence:

glitter,doodling/ pen work

I then gave my snowflakes some movement by doodling with a glue pen and adhering silver glitter on top, yum!

For my testimony I chose to work with a prompt from this site

I chose prompt #7. What I want for Christmas this year

You see my DD had never made a Christmas list before, EVER...

So Santa was good to her and gave her the doll of her wishes

Thanks so much for visiting!!!

Favorite Tea Room Project

Hi everyone it's Christmas Eve and I wanted to take the time to wish all of you a beautiful Christmas with your loved ones! This week at TSTR they want us to share our favorite project from any of the challenges in 2012

Well this one is my favorite for many reasons, here's my top 5

1.I absolutely love Christmas

2.It's pink

3.I got to decorate a Christmas tree again ;)

4.It was a special present I created for my mom's birthday this year

5. It gave me a ton of inspiration to even create a template.   You see after making it into a card I wanted something more, it could be a canvas for your hall or it could be a hidden box for a present.

 

PS I also made it into my blog header 'cause I loved it soooo much!

 

the tree

the box

the full package

 

Merry Christmas everyone!!!!

youwhooo!!!!

Hi everyone it's been a while I know so much has been going one I have neglected the blog for a while.  But I am back from all the recent happenings ready to play and share.  This is so inspiring that I just had to play

I feel this should be my parlor, so pinky, shabby and girly

So I made me a little house, a tiny aqua one, shaded by a sweet pink tree dressed in snow and some more silver glitter and tinsel, hey a girl's gotta dream...

then I nested everything in a gorgeous glass dome

and heres my sweet little snow globe for the TSTR girls!

the house was built out of a set of mini houses by Maya Road

made 3 d with extra chipboard

the joy banner is a Tim Holtz Sizzix die and the alphas are MM

the base is a Maya Road wooden spool painted cream

the glass globe, tinsel and tree are Melissa Frances

This was a Joy to put together

Here's a bit of where I was this past 2 wks:

We had a mother daughter grand time at the big apple!!!

Times Square, Rockettes Christmas Spectacular, Ricky Martin @ Evita!!!

Skating in Central Park, playing at the Big Piano @ FAO and visiting the Empire State Bldg

among other things

Then I had Miss M's modeling graduation where she shined bright like a diamond, as the song says.

 

She performed as Katy Perry singing California Girls and it was AWESOME!!!

as you can imagine I was beading and sewing non stop for 1 week with mom's help of course.

We got to visit Moods in NYC where we felt like the Project Runway gals and bought the fabrics I used for her final dress.

 

Thanks for stopping by I missed you
