Here is my little adorable "Mother's Day" Card!
I took the Die-Namites Die "Momma's Love" which is a baby theme die with 
these amazing Tombow USA adhesive products
to create such a touching "Mother's Day" Card!!!!



Momma's Love

Ah a "Momma's Love"... Do you see the heart? ADORABLE...


I first die cut out the "Momma's Love" Die-Namites Die twice out
of white card stock. Colored the images with my CTMH ShinHanart Twin Touch Markers.
As seen below after I fussy cut out a few images to pop up using Tombow USA's 3D Foam Tabs.
I also used the Tombow USA's Multi Mono Liquid Glue to give the 3D Foam Tabs
extra strengthen to the die cut images.



I am so thrilled with new product....Tombow USA's
 New XTREME Permanent Adhesive!!!
It's FABULOUS....it's such a strong bond it's great for putting paper to paper.


Tombow USA's 3D Foam Tabs are wonderful for adding depth to your cards!


Another FABULOUS product from Tombow USA is the Multi Mono
Liquid Glue and Aqua Mono Liquid Glue..
it's perfect fit for the Die-Namites Dies cut outs...it 
comes out in a fine line for the details of the die cuts flows on easy!


Here is another look at my "Mother's Day" Card!




Tombow USA and Die-Namites were so generous with products I had
to create another project. I decided to create a little panel canvas
to create another "Mother's Day Gift!


Cotton Ball Flowers



I used the Tombow USA's 3D Foam Tabs, Multi Mono Liquid Glue
 as well as the Aqua Mono Liquid Glue
 which is a clear glue it was great to adhere the vintage book paper
 to the canvas panel.
three times in white card stock and colored them all the same with markers.
Adding touches of CTMH inks, doilies and
 vintage Mother of Pearl Buttons to the canvas panel...
this will make any mother happy to display
 on a coffee table or in a photo frame!


Thanks for stopping in today!
Happy Hopping along with us...hugs 
Peggy Lee

What I've been up too.....

I guess it's Monday....early early in the wee morning...
I thought I would start to change up my blog post a little bit, a little bit more personal! See when I started blogging way back in 2006, now hold on don't go looking for my oldie blog post...they are no where to be found...
some time ago I accidentally deleted my oldie blog and blog name...ugh
So that is why you won't find those years, years of memories and pics gone..
like that in a blink of an eye or should I say a click of a button.
So fast forward to today 4-14-2014
I knew I wanted to have a every day kind of record of memories for my girls and friends to look back upon and remember when....
See life has thrown me another curve, I've been fighting something within my body since Jan. of this year and now it's developed into my lungs...I have been very ill for the past few months...but the last few weeks have been the worst...I now have "allergic bronchitis.
I can here you know what is that....well I really don't know whatever I am allergic too has now settled into my lungs...
So with that weakness, I so needed to lift my spirits and I have had to do something...what can I change...my hair.
So I cut it all off I had really long hair for over a year now...I did it I got a cute spring hair cut and I LOVE it!
I have been doing daily post on face book which I love and hate at the same time. I have decided that posting more on my blog and only try to update status on face book.
Here is a handmade flower I created the other day using Marion Smith Designs new Bloom Impressions Dies-Peony Petal Die...LOVE 
Along with her Junque & Gems!!

Isn't that flower center FABULOUS?
On Saturday was my day to post on the Marion Smith Designs Blog, here.
And this is the little Altered Easter Egg Decoration I made.
Do YOU see? 
Yes the flower I created and a bunny from the dollar store I painted and crackled....see more details on the blog, here.
And look who came with many friends the other day 
my little friend
Robin
makes me so happy 
here in the White Mountains of New Hampshire the winter has been a long and cold one.
I love spring birthday right in front of my eyes...and seeing our neighbors come out and get out of the winter blues...amazing.
Lastly just a few weeks ago we got to attend our youngest daughter Emilee's concert for the North Country Concert, hand picked...
She is right in the middle of the photo..
LOVE YOU 
EMILEE
Can you see her 
oh I wonder what she is really thinking and saying 
to herself...lol
Mom and her camera!!! 
Well I suppose I should close this for now...I have so much to do in the morning or real morning when others awake.

My To Do List
-see family off lee to work, Emilee to school
Can't believe she is a senior and this is it only a few more months...and our oldest Olivia will be home shortly from college..we miss her a ton...LOVE HER
-work on Spring Fling projects
-mail out a goodie
-start to unpack will explain in another post
-spend a little time with my amazing Lord and Savior!
-figure out supper, food shopping, eat better
-call the doc for an update
-be grateful
-be kind
-be a gem for someone in need....

hugs, 
Peggy Lee

Happy Memorial Day

To start the celebration for Memorial Day I created this adorable card, card base is 7x6 fold in half, stamp script stamp in black ink in the upper center of card. I used the CTMH SOTM Pinwheel stamp set that you can still purchase until the end of this month May 31st for only $5.00 when you spend $50.00 in CTMH products which you can purchase here. I used pacifica blue ink and ruby ink to create the pinwheel added a gem. Pop up the pinwheel to give some depth of movement on card, then stamp the sentiment twice, one in ruby ink on the card base and then one on a piece of scrap and cut out the "celebrate" into a banner pennant shape popped it up to give movement.
Our home town Memorial Day Parade photos to share....Love my town!
FREEDOM
simply beautiful
my hubby marching (lee is the one with sunglasses on with raffle)

Happy Memorial Day
