Late Night Creations

First of all I want to apologize for not posting yesterday day. I am looking for I job right now and spent yesterday going to daycare's around town handing out my resume. I did a card Thursday night along with a layout. Early Friday morning I did another card. Friday night we watched a movie but did that stop me from crafting? Oh no it didn't. After the movie I created two cards, some envelopes, and a layout! Tonight Danny works late again so I plan on doing at least one layout, at least two cards, and some envelopes. Oh and try my hand at making my own digital stamps jeepers I am nervous about that one.
This first picture is of the layout I created late Thursday night. It was for COW# 11 on SJ. The theme was favorite family activity, my family loves Scrabble. We had to use chipboard, so the S and B are chipboard letters I colored. The title had to be two words. We also had to use shapes other the square or circle, so I used wooden hearts. I didn't have any pictures of us playing scrabble so it gave us an excuse to play. I am laughing in the picture because Danny was complaining about how good his brother Jamie is at the game. During Scrabble you can almost always here laughter coming from the kitchen table.
The second picture is of the layout I did late Friday night. It is COW# 1. I know way out of order, I found out about the COWS when they were on number four so I am going back and doing the first three as well. The theme was holiday so I picked Christmas my second favorite holiday ( the first is national scrapbooking day which is May the 7th this year!). We needed to use chipboard so I use the tag that has the date on it, I colored it red. Journaling had to be on the page. Usually I hide my journaling but this time I decided to display it. Last but not least we were to use buttons. These gold buttons had been given to me when a friend was purging their stash, I had no idea how I was going to use them but I kept them just in case. I am so glad I did being that they went perfectly with this page. The pictures are from my favorite moments of that day. Me surprising my brother by waking him up, his reaction was "don't put me on Youtube" we all laughed at that. My brother, Caleb, playing with one of his new toys. He as got such I big personality. My sister, Lorian, who is only sixteen months younger than me being silly. Last but not least by far is Caleb reading a book to me on his own for the first time ever! I cried like a baby.
The third picture is of the one year anniversary card I made for Danny. The digital stamp I found online for free. I can't be sure but I follow a blog that posts free digital stamps here it is: Free Digital Stamps. I colored the image with colored pencils. I thought it was to plain so I added the cute buttons with hot glue. I think it is adorable and I hope he likes it too. Now I have to wait a few weeks to give it to him, and figure out his gift!! I found men are very hard to shop for. By the way I created this Thursday night before he got home from work so between 8:30 and 9:15.
The fourth picture is the card for the holiday card swap. I had so much fun creating this one. We had to use light blue so as you can see I did lol. The patterned paper was a scrap given to me. The digital stamp I found online for free. I colored it with colored pencils. I then wrapped ribbon around the left side and tied a bow at the top. I was very please the outcome. This is the card I created early Friday morning.
The fifth picture is of the card I created for Stamping Royalty contest. Obviously It is for the birthday category. The patterned paper was a scrap given to me. The flowers are a digital stamp I found online for free. The sentiment I downloaded of papercraftsmag.com for free. Though this card is simple I think it is elegant. I will moatly likely be making this one again.
The fifth and final picture is of a random card I made for a friend. Who doesn't like cards? The patterned paper was a scrap given to me. The digital stamp I found for free online. I colored with color pencils. The inside has a cute sentiment about friends. This card is simple but adorable.



I will be creating some more tonight. Hopefully I will post tomorrow. Enjoy your evening! Get inspired and create!!
Happy crafting!!
