Wild White Wasabi Baby Baluga...

Swims down deep in the big blue sea...baaabbyyyy Baluuugaaa! Any of you ever watch Full House...you know the episode that little Michelle has the little tape player and is singing this song through the whole episode? I do and every time I look at this stamp set and see the adorable whale I can't help but sing the song! Here is a link to a You Tube Video where Stephanie, Joe and Danny Sing the song to Michelle...I hope it brings back memories! LOL

Any who I hope you like my color combo creation... I know water isn't normally green, but when I lived in Pensacola FL. also known as the "Emerald Coast" the water really was a greenish color and it was just GORGEOUS! So I thought...hey I can make my water green if I want to!

I didn't come up with this color combo...it's a normal SCS challenge (TLC172 today)...every Tuesday Emily tempts us with different colors and today's was Wild Wasabi, whisper white and taken with teal...I love how it came out though!

This little journal already has a good home...it's going to one of my friend Dana's little girls...I hope they like it!!!

Thanks for looking and come back in a few for my Tuesday's Teacher...I haven't forgotten!

Happy Stampin'

Gift Set


This little gift set was made for two challenges on Splitocoaststampers...the first was issued on Thursday and it was to use wire on/in your project and the other challenge was thr MFT monthly Guest designer challenge...and this Month's MFT challenge was to use black on our projects...easy enough right? I realy enjoyed making this set...so what's new right? I seem to enjoy making everything...good thing too otherwise why would I be doing this? Anywho Here are some pics of my set.

The first picture shows the whole set...it includes
-the box( that used the wire and satisfied my challenge for Thursday)
-a card
-a magnet
-a note pad
-a beaded pen.
This card was actually a brease to assemble, really just a 2x4.25 piece of designer paper, a couple of strips on black and a strip of blue that was scalloped nd hole punches...add some ribbon a shrink plastic charm and the sentiment and you're ready to go!
This is the box. I created it using a sheet of 6x12 chipboardish material...the hard board that comes with the SU! designer series paper (order a pack and youc an make 2 boxes like these...LOL) I used my trustu scor-pal and created this AWESOME little box and then covered it with DS paper...it's from American Craft and it's called Seuss. I made the handle using my wire, I think this is the 18 gauge but I'm not possitve. I just wrapped it around an SU! marker and called it a day!
I used my crop-a-dial to make all thw wholes and used some Shrink Plastic to make the charm/tag on the bag and card.
One of my favorite things to make are these cool beaded pens, they are so fun, fast and easy and I just love how they look...spendy! And you can coordinate them to just about any card set...perfect gifts!
Thanks for stopping by! Let me know what you think of this little set, if you have any questions please feel free to ask!
