STAMPtember - Day Eleven - Take Two (technically Three) - Happy Birthday, Nessie!!!

Three posts today!  There's a lot going on.

My fellow Twihards will know that today is Renesmee Cullen's birthday.  Per the books, she's eighteen!  Crazy.  I hope Jacob's keeping his creeper distance cause.....yecch!  Anyways, I always make a card for Nessie's birthday, and this year I made a card slightly Twilight inspired, but that could absolutely be a card that someone might give to Nessie.

31 Days of Crafting - Day Two - Catching Snowflakes

Happy Wednesday!  Ya'all know I'm a huge Twihard, and when I saw this Sizzix die set, I couldn't not get it.  All I could hear in my head when I looked at it was Jacob saying "Ness was catching snowflakes" and I was like I MUST HAVE THIS.  So that's where the inspiration from this card came from.  Also, it's absolutely frigid today on the second of March!  Michigan!  Ugh!

    31 Days of Crafting - Day Thirteen - Always and Forever

    Good Saturday morning!  I'm trying to be more optimistic than I actually feel this morning, it's not going so good.  I should have some chocolate and revisit the topic.  Anyways, since today is the 13th, I've made a Twilight inspired card for today.  Bella and Edward were married on August 13th, and I figured this could be somewhat of an anniversary card for them.  Once a Twihard, always a Twihard.

    31 Days of Crafting - Day Seven - Love You Roses

    Good morning!  This card was made from an altered ATC from a swap.  I love these die-cut cards from Michaels they make everything look good!  I also love that it's kinda Twilight-inspired.  Once a Twihard, always a Twihard!

    STAMPtember - Day Thirteen - Happy Birthday Bella

    Ya'all know I'm a Twihard!!  Every year I make a birthday card for the lovely Mrs. Cullen, usually inspired by the books/movie in one way or another.  This one just sorta came together out of nowhere but I just LOVE it!!  I kind of feel like Nessie would've ordered it for her because it's HER style rather than Bella's, ya know??

    And I thought the sentiment was hilarious considering she's a vampire :D

    31 Days of Crafting - Day Sixteen - Shattered Dreams

    Happy Saturday!!!  The radio stations here are having an all-80s weekend which is my favorite kind of music.  A few of the songs I hadn't heard in awhile so I pulled out my old CDs and one in particular really stuck with me. Remember "Shattered Dreams"?  That was a great song. Anyways, I was playing that song on repeat and this card came together.  The background looks like shattered gems or rocks and I just love how it turned out. Plus it's PURPLE, which is my favorite color.  I hadn't made a mostly-purple card in a bit and they always make me happy.

    I also kind of think it's Twilight-inspired.  The colors, the dreamcatcher, makes me wanna watch the movies.


    (It looks WAY more purple than pink in person.  And the dream is actually silver but it kinda looks rose in this picture. It's REALLY gloomy today, makes for bad photos.)

    .....which as they kiss....consume.....

    I'm a Twihard.  Everyone knows that.  The Saga is important to me, it provides so much inspiration for my art.  Watching New Moon, hearing the Shakespeare in the beginning, that's where this came from.

    **PEARLS AND LACE** New Challenge with Get Creative Challenges!!

    Hi everyone!  It's a new challenge at Get Creative Challenges and our theme is Pearls and Lace!!  This one was so fun for me, I love anything girly!  Now I picked this digi because for whatever reason, it looked Twilight-y to me.  Our lovely sponsor is Scrap N Dipity and I'm using Under the Misteltoe!  In my Twilight-crazed mind, I see this as Jake and Nessie going to a Lord Of the Rings-themed New Year's party!  So that's where the inspiration for this card came from.

    STAMPtember - Day Thirteen - Happy Birthday Bella!

    Bella Swan is thirty today!!!  I know she stopped aging eleven years ago but still.  I'm celebrating!!  I made a card with sort of tomboyish colors.  Bella doesn't run around Forks in pinks and purples, she wears greys and maroons and navys, despite Alice and Rosalie's best efforts!

    **FALL/ANYTHING GOES** New Challenge with A Snowflake's Promise!!

    Hi everyone!  It's a new challenge at A Snowflake's Promise and as always our theme is seasonal so it's Anything Goes or Fall!!  Our lovely sponsor is Sheepski Designs and I'm working with Miki and Shila!  I picked this image 'cause it's very Twilight-y to me.  I can just see Nessie and Jacob, in the woods, Nessie having gotten a haircut like Aunt Alice :D  Sorry I'm a Twihard for life!  Anyways...

    **ANYTHING GOES** New Challenge with Crafting With Friends!!

    Happy Friday!  It's a new challenge at Crafting with Friends and as always, our theme is Anything Goes!  This challenge will be Just For Fun, no sponsor so we're just using our stashes!  This card is Twilight inspired, but instead of going for a Cullen theme, I went with a Jacob & Renesmee theme.  I thought all the brown represented the wolves, and the pink for Nessie.

    Growing In Unity Day Two - Risk Everything

    Happy Tuesday!!!  It's my second day as one of the Growing In Unity girls this week, and I'm really excited to have a sort of mixed media piece to share with you.  I absolutely love Unity Stamps, and they compliment a mixed media look so well.  I made the background papers with Color Burst and watercolors and Distress Inks first, then chose the part I wanted to use for my image when they were dry.  I absolutely love this kit, Follow Your Dreams.  It's part of their Layers of Life subscription program, which I am seriously considering joining!



    I also put a sentiment inside, which I don't often do, but the colors on the front and the size of the image didn't really leave me any space to add the sentiment there.

    It reads: Sometimes life is about risking everything for a dream no one can see but you


    BE SURE to comment on my blog posts every day this week!  Two lucky winners will receive 25 amazing Unity stamps!  How awesome is that?!?!  If you missed my previous posts, here's an easy link to yesterday's post!

    Just a few quick challenges to enter:


    Thanks so much for looking and happy crafting.  Good luck in the draw!!  Laters!!!

    **FANTASY** New Challenge with Get Creative Challenges!!

    Hi everyone!  It's a new challenge at Get Creative Challenges and our theme is Fantasy!!  It's the perfect time of year for love cards, but I chose an Asian theme for this card.  Our lovely sponsor is The Art of Nikki Burnette and I'm working with Fallon Wolf!!  Of COURSE this is Twilight inspired for me!  Soon as I saw this image I thought of Renesmee and Jake.  I know that Jacob is brown but that didn't match the card and I figure he looks lighter with the moonlight shining on him okay? :D

    800 Posts

    I was gonna say 800 cards but I'll bet that even though some posts are tags or ornaments or even a shadowbox, there's a good possibility I've shown more than 800 cards.  Some posts have more than one card and one time there were four so...anyway.

    I'm so proud of myself because I've stuck with this.  The only things I've ever stuck with are crafting and music.  And vampires.  And Friends reruns.  Okay I'm on a tangent the point is, I've been at this for awhile and I love it, and I'm hoping to keep at it for awhile longer.

    My card is Twilight-themed because aren't all my important posts Twilight themed?  I received an amazing Twilight stamp set for Christmas, so I made this.



    More than a few challenges for this one!


    Thank you so much for looking and sharing this journey with me.  To the next 800 posts!  Laters!!

    Forever Is Only The Beginning

    Three years ago today, The Twilight Saga ended when Breaking Dawn Part Two opened in theaters.  Those of us that are true Twihards know that it never really ends, but I still wanna celebrate the final movie in the Saga.

    Awhile ago I saw a project on Pinterest to make a shadowbox to hold your ticket stubs.  I have years and years and years worth, but somehow I couldn't find them, so most of the films I put inside are from the past year or so.  One of these days I'll find the rest and this thing will be busting.

    I of course wanted it to have a Twilight theme, cause why not?


    No matter how many photos I took, I still got a reflection of the camera in the glass!!!

    Notice the all-important stubs I glued in place:


    Anyone else LOVE this movie??  Alex Pettyfer* is sooooooo yummy!!


    And the SUPER IMPORTANT Fifty Shades* stub!  IDK where the ones went from my first viewing, and before you ask, no I didn't put my Twilight stubs in here they're in my Twilight book!


    Thanks so much for looking and happy crafting.  Laters!

    *I STILL maintain--as much as I LOVED Fifty Shades--that Alex Pettyfer would've made SUCH a good Christian!  There's something about the idea of him wielding a whip that seems so......fitting.
