A Wedding card
My daughter in law asked if I could make a wedding card. She didnt want to buy one since she knows I spend most of my free time making cards or scrapbooking. With a grim look I said I would try. I used the Imagine and printed swatches of background papers from Lori's Garden. I then chose an image of a wedding cake I liked. Sorry I dont remember which cartridge I used, will have to learn to jot down the specifics of each item I make. I made two different cards using the same image, what a huge difference between both cards. The card my DIL picked was made with Loris garden, the other card I made I used glitter and a second color. I agreed with her choice and I felt releived that she actually liked it. With a little boost of confidence I can accomplish great things.

T-shirt day
June 8,2011
Hello.
Just wanted to recap a litte about The Rubber Stamp and Paper Show I attended in Springfield Ma. I felt like I was in heaven, Papers, stamps, ink, copics,embossing tools, and more. While there I did 2 make and takes. I will share about them at another time. I saw alot of products I wanted to buy, but I chose only 1 color of each item I wanted. This way I can see if I like the product and if I should invest into buying more . I bought my first Copics and picked mostly skin-toned colores. To say the least I did enjoy going to the Show, But my Hubbie was so bored so I only went once around the booths.
So when I returned home from the two hour drive I was so tired. I just put all I bought in my craft place, knowing that the next day was play-time.
So todays projects involved using the Imagine. I bought t-shirt transfer film and picked a few images from the cartridge Best Friends and Nursery Tales. The t-shirt made with BF's came out really nice, the other image was too lightly colored. I tested the soft colors and bright color images and I definetly liked the bright darker colors. Now I will have to make a t-shirt for my grandson Jaysn since I made 2 for Dani. It was fun to do and I learned something new.
Also pictured is a Cutie Patutti image I found on some ones blog, please forgive me as I cannot remember where the image came from...
but I thought Dani (4) did a great job with it. Enjoy...
Talk to you soon. Dawn

Dani's Goodies Bags
June 3, 2011
Hello, Good Morning!
Today I want to share some pictures of some goodies bags that I made for my grand daughters 5th birthday. Dani is so excited. Her Birthday is June 12th.
We are ready for her "Rock Princess Bounce Party". It will be at the YMCA and the bounce house room is where the party will take place.
Dani helped with making the goody bags. She picked out all the colors, and she stuffed the bags with lots of goodies. Also pictured is the cupcake topper which is personalized with her name and the year. My little grand daughter is growing up so fast.
Talk to you soon,
Dawn RI

A New Beautiful Day
Good morning. Yesterday all us were a little nervous about the tornado in Springfield Ma. The tornado was on a path thru northern RI. I live in the Southern part, but I have family that I was concerned for. RI being the smallest state makes one think that anything could happen state wide. Last March we had the flooding through out our state. Well Im thankful we are all fine.
Yesterdays goal was to put a link on my blog and to post a picture. Well the picture was there ,bigger than expected but the link didn't happen. I wanted to post a link to my friend Sarah of Pink by Design and know as Pink Cricut I used one of her sentimental stamps and wanted to give her the credit. I'll try again. You can see the stamps at http://www.pinkbydesign.com She going to have a Ustream to show her new stamps for June.
I will continue to keep searching for answers about blogging. Its a whole new language. So no new picture today but I will share the goodie bags I made for Danielles 5th birthday.
See you soon, Dawn RI

Going to Try Something New
June 1,2011
Well its a new day and a new month. Im also a new age since my family celebrated my birthday this Memorial Day weekend. So today I'm going to try to add a link and post a photo. This will be my first try so wish me luck, LOL.
The photo is a picture of a card I made using my Imagine, Lori's Garden cartridge, I inked the edges on the design and on the sentiment. I used dimensionals to raise the image which gave it new look. The sentiment stamp is "Hat's Off", by Sarah at www.pinkbydesign.com

Trying to figure this Out
Im trying to figure out how to get the tabs that many of you have under your header....Looks like my archives are ok, but how do I get the names of the cartridges to show the projects associated with each cartridge? . I have so many questions about blogging, and each day Ive been playing on the computer to figure it out. I am open to suggestions that would help. Ide really appreciate it...
The sooner I can figure out this world of blogging the sooner I can start bringing in pictures of what I've been working on, and sharing with all of you. Right now I am doing favors and such for my grand daughters 5th birthday. The theme she chose was Rock Princess. So far I have rock girls and glittered hair. I thought Once upon a Princess would be more to her liking but glittered hair it will be...I'll be back soon and maybe I will have figured Something Out. Good night for now. Dawn RI

A Little Confused
5/19/2011
Well today is my second day at being in Blogger World. Ive played around a little with the site. No scrap creating today, I'll call it "computer day". I really do not know what I'm doing, its just going to take some time. I do know that I can be seen on the web. My Friend Sarah over at Pink Cricut did see. my blog. She welcomed me to blog world, hehe. So my big project today was my listing all my cartridges to a new page , my only question is will they show up (YES) *check, they are on the page. My only concern is that I want to show the cartridge and then have it show the project or projects Ive done using the selected Cartridg.e.
The second thing I want to work on is putting a picture of my grand children on my blog. They are my life. I LOVE them so much and I am very proud of them. Jaysn is seven and Danielle will be five next month. She will be starting kindergarten in the fall. Watching them, I can't believe how fast the years have gone by. So I leave you now to go see how to post pictures... My fingers are crossed. If all goes well I will try to post again tomarrow....Love ya ,Dawn RI
