Rolodex -Theme Marie Antoinette & Charm-Summer Theme

We were to make a rolodex card with a Theme Era of our choice. I chosen the 1700's and I choose Marie Antoinette. I got all of my trims and the purple Boa feathers (which was on a roll, so I bought the whole role) same with the trim and beads, I bought to spools each of the trim, one role is clear beads and the other pink. The paper is from the Mademoiselle paper which is from DCWV. I love this paper.
What do you think?

Charmed I'm Sure- YPP

I made these charms for the swap over at YPP.  The theme of the charm swap is "Masculine" to honor Father's Day.  I alcohol inks on some of the nuts and washers and some other pointy thing.  I also use Tim Holtz springs and his light bulbs as well, To get them to stay on the swivel clasp charm I used those locking plastic ties that men use out in the garage.  I also used some of the tissue tape (Tim Holtz) and put on the washers.
Sorry for the blurriness, but hope you can see them. Oh I also added the little hanger from Tim Holtz's things.


Rolodex Swap continued...

Here is another Rolodex card... I just used a Transparency and stamped flowers and painted the flowers a yellow.  It really doesn't show on here. We are suppose to give our info on paper and let the other person decide if she wants to use our info on one of her cards that been altered,  
I had these already cut out using the SU address and phone card die.  So I just printed out some address labels and put all info on the labels and then adhered them to this Rolodex card, I like how it turned out to.  I also added glitter in the flowers and all around the open spaces on both sides.

Swaps- YPP

I've been doing a lot of swaps over in YPP.  You should join if love swaps and charms and pins of all kinds.  I'm in a Rolodex swap, we left the back open for the person receiving them can put any information on the back.
Here goes my rolodex...



I am having a tad bit of a problem with my camera, I used the mini rosettes die from Tim Holtz,The saying on the punched out square 
which is Marthra's new anywhere punch, it looks exactly like the one in SU catty's. And the saying says "Friendship Warms the Heart" which is in a set with other mini sayings from Hero Arts. Then added some ribbon which is from Hobby Lobby.

A Day At The Spa... Ü

Hi Everyone,
Wow, it's been a while since I blog anything.  I'm here today to take care of that.  How can I not Blog my favorite child ... Chloe... She had a day at the spa today, all her fur from underneath is all gone (fur buster) and won't be shedding like she has been.  Her toe nails all trimmed down and smooth, her bath had nice scent on her and got an extra conditioner... lol  She looks so pretty, and to top it all, She is also Blinging... Yes, my girl has some bling on her.  Hope you enjoy the pictures as much as I love my girl.

                                                  " Can you see her bling on the bows?"
How much cuter can she get. Ü Ü Money well spent on my little girl.  You can really see the blonde fur on her now. Ü

Journal Spots Swap



I made these Journal Spots for a Swap I'm in over at YPP. I was a tad nervous at first,and then I thought these are just like making Christmas tags, only on a bigger level.   I made pockets out of dies... Tim Holtz dies, the other die is Top Note from Stamping Up.  We had to use the new paper by Pink Paisley Butterfly Garden.  I stamped on the back journal lines and also on the tags.  If you want you could put a picture on the front of these pockets as well.

Atc Swap- Soul Sister's "Anything with flowers"

Hi!
I made this for The Soul Sister's Group that I'm in.  This is an Atc and the theme was flowers.  So I figure I would use my new mini Rosette that Tim Holtz has out.  The paper is from Tim Coffey's "Blossomwood" papers.  I used Martha Stewart's Butterfly punch.  And added little drops of pearl using liquid pearls. I also have some glitter in the center of the flowers.  It doesn't show up to well here.
I have some more swaps I need to work on.  I was up late last night working on this one.

Altered Rolodex

I made this a few years back when doing a swap with a group of girls from RST group.  I love how my altered Rolodex turned out.  I painted it a gold color and took my stamp that has script and stamped all over.   Adding a flower and name plate on top.  I think we had a Rolodex swap in the yr. 2000.  It is a great way to get to know your friends and their b-days and any other info they wanted to put on the Rolodex card.  We all altered the front of Rolodex cards with all info on back.  It was a fun swap.  ( I hosted this swap back in 2000)
Here goes some pics of what I did to my Rolodex holder.
