Hi Friends, 

Welcome to  week  #2 of the  


DL.ART Thankful Thursday Challenge #134

THEME: MASCULINE

I even have a video for you

If you get the perfect layers they work best when you cut on the right side  and go all the way around in that same direction.  If you are left handed I would think ( I'm not sure) they might work best cutting on the left and going around that way.

CTMH_stamp set:
ink saddle, and desert sand
colonial white card stock
DCWV guy stack
perfect layers:

I am looking forward to seeing what you come up with.

The challenge will open at 9:00 am June 12, 2014 and

Good Morning friends,
I hope you are enjoying this Memorial day weekend.

You've got a friend in me. My card base is PTI classic kraft,  and tropical teal prints underneath the water color paper . The stamps I used are from CTMH Ivy lane card making kit and  the May stamp of the month set from Close to my heart You've got a friend. I used saddle and Lagoon ink from CTMH and the funny thing as I watercolor effect-ed them ( is hat a word?) the thinning of the ink gave a melon kind of color and the thinning of the lagoon gave it an aqua hue. I stamped on top of the colonial white and inked the edges with saddle ink, then added it to the card with 3-D foam tape, then I used a pearl pen in ice white to certain areas
of the stamped lowers

I love how this came out. If you are interested in any of these products you can purchase them from me through my close to my heart store.

Have a blessed day, Diana

Hi Friends,--- Welcome to the Mini Friendship blog hop

It is really a mini blog hop, but a BIG friendship

On my way back from Michigan, My layover was in Phoenix, when I told my friend Carri (aka Abusy-bee), hoping we could meet up, She said "We have to get together".  I only had an hour and 15 minutes between flights, but I said I really want to do it, if the logistics work out. My flight leaving Detroit was delayed and would be arriving in Phoenix 20 minutes later than planned.  I was still hopeful that we could still meet, even if it was for only 10 minutes. Once on the plane I kept watching the flight status. Our pilot made up 10 minutes which was in our favor. When I got off the plane, I checked my flight status for my departure flight to San Jose and it was delayed by 20 minutes. YEAH!!! Departure was in our favor, we could spend nearly 40 minutes together. My flight would be leaving the same gate, so I knew all I had to do was go through security and retrace my steps . Once I got to the area where I could see about 100 yards ahead of me I could see Carri waving, I waved back and it was just a few short minutes before we gave each other hugs, like we have known each other our whole life. I also got to meet my other two friends, her daughters Megan and Brea. They are both so adorable and sweet and look like mini Carri's.  Carri also brought me a Starbucks iced coffee Yum-- I needed that it was so refreshing, she also gave me some skittles and some enamel dots.  Do you like the enamel dots? She told me how long it takes to make these, I think  that was reason enough for me to buy them from her in the future.  I wished we lived closer  we could have so much more crafty fun. I am glad we have the blog and the phone. It was one of the highlights of my year.

Ps. I was the last person on the plane and then they closed the door right behind me,  Whew- I might have been spending the night in AZ.

On to the mini hop

This hop consists of Carri and me (doesn't get smaller than that)

Carri will be giving away a set of skittles 

DIANA L. will be giving away a set of  4 mini cards  made from Ivy Lane Close to My Heart, colonial white and saddle ink  and delicate wings stamp set (only available for CTMH consultant's to purchase) .
