It was my friends birthday just before Christmas. It must kinda suck to have a Birthday close to the biggest gift giving day of the year. So I wanted to make her day extra special. (as well I was itching to use my new giant cup cake pan)

So I made her a cute card. (I normally don't do cute.) Using espresso, pink pirouette, and not sure what green that is. But it looked super. I used a sketch challenge but again don't remember which one. I am going to blame it on the massive blow my head took on the 21st.

The cupcake is huge and you bake it in 2 pieces. How much fun is a giant cupcake???? My kids have already put in their requests. Check it out here.

I think she really liked it........ since I didn't get a piece. LOL

Just a quick update to let everybody know, I have the new Occasions mini in hand. Let me know if you need one.

As well January 3rd is the last day to order from the holiday mini. Don't miss out on those last minute items.

I hope everybody had a wonderful Christmas and are looking forward to a New Year.

Hello everybody!
Just getting back to stamping. Will share a project tomorrow.
Just letting you know I will be keeping this blog papercrafting. The bears are moving over to this blog. The Grizzley Details

Hope you will continue to check out the bears as well.

Well he's been at it again. A new design and a sweet little face. I still marvel at how Mike can sit down and draw out a perfect pattern. I would need a few attemps to do it so well. The guy has skills.

This sweet little girl has already found a new home. She's living the bear's life out at Sandy Bottom lake.

The bears are entirely hand stitched. Stuffed with fiber fill and steel shot. German glass eye's and needle sculpted faces.

We have tons of supplies so there will be new bears rolling out the door soon!

Have a Beary Merry Christmas!

Well, we are certainly down to the crunch time of Christmas. Here are a few more cards from the swap I did awhile back. I got so many great cards with super ideas.

I am back home now, from being up to the city with my youngest. She had her final back surgery (lengthening) and she is excited to have that part behind her. This was her 8th surgery in 4 years. In 2011 she will go for a spinal fusion. Also we got great news about that. She has reached her growth markers so they only have to fuse from the back, not from the front as well. It is all good news.

Next week I will try to post some new ideas and some projects.
