Happy Birthday card

I made this card for my friend at work.  She is going to see her sister this weekend for her birthday.  She loves butterflies, and this one is so cute!!  I used Create a Critter Cricut cartridge for the butterfly.  Also, I'm going to add some more stuff to make it pop!

I'm totally clueless when it comes to the dating life.  I mean seriously one time a guy was using a pick up line, and I took it literally.  He just kept on, and I didn't understand why.  Until after he left, my guy friends that was with me explained to me that he was trying to pick me up.  I was like oh.....my bad.  lol.  The guy was such a cutie too!  He probably thought I wasn't interested. 

I just wish it was just straight forward, no games, nothing.  Just tell me how you feel, or ask me straight out.  Because I will otherwise have no clue.  People are always telling me that I won't get married or anything like that.  Might be true, but I would like to think that I have a fighting chance. 

Anyway, I started taking be-HOT by GNC.  It's suppose to give you energy and all that good stuff.  So far it WORKS!!!  I haven't felt sluggish since I have started taking it.  I would highly recommend it to anyone that needs an extra boost throughout the day!! 

Tomorrow is going to be a light day!!  WOOHOO!  Gonna head to bed.  Goodnite everyone!

It's been a long time....

Wow!  I can't believe it's been over a year since my last post.  A lot has changed since then.  If it didn't then it would be kinda of scary and depressing.  Anyway, I felt like I should post something.  I love having these overwhelming urges to do something.  Usually it deals with me spending money, which everyone knows I don't like doing. lol.  

On to my point of wanting to do a post.  I have started making cards, and would like to go into more paper crafts.  Here is my first card I made:

 I cut the flower from the Cricut Expression.  The bottom I made the impression myself (might need to invest in a embossing machine).  It took me maybe 30 mins to make.  It took me longer to figure out what colors to use.  lol.  

I have made others as well.....here they go: 

I cut the tree using Cricut Expression.  I also used Mini Brads in the top right hand corner.  Just so CUTE!!

I stamped the butterfly on a circle of white cardstock.  Then I used color pencils to color in.  I would like to get a pastel set to use to color images, but color pencils is a good medium to use.

I like the fact that this one is so simple but yet so pretty!   I embossed a section of the pink cardstock.  Then I carefully put glue on the raised parts and added glitter. 

I orginally made the owl for the card above, but couldn't figure out where to put it.  So I decided to make another card.  I used a Martha Stewart punch for the border, and then used mini brads on the corners. 

This one is one of the most recent ones I have made.  I used glitter glue in the spots of the flower and mini brads on the top right hand corner. 

I love making cards.  My favorite part is the stamping!!  I don't know much about the different types of stamps and the inks, but I'm learning!  I like the fact that you can make a really cute card with little effort.  Plus, when you give this to someone it means so much more than buying a card.   Which for some reason I can't really let go of these cards.  Probably because they're my first.  :) 

Well it's been fun catching up, but I gotta get up early tomorrow.  :(   Gotta get ready for a busy day ahead of me.  Goodnite!!
