Hostess_carol_pack_of_10_cards I made this pack of  10 cards for my hostess tonight ..  do they look familiar ?  They should ,cause  look  HERE

I used pixie pink and black for her cards  colored in "Friends " with  coordinating markers in Pixie pink. Pink passion & Black  added  a touch a pixie pink to the background of Friends with my dauber , I dyed  some white GG ribbon  with pixie pink reinker and also used a  tad bit of Black GG ribbon  attached with  staples . I also used the slit punch  for my black scallops and the scallop  scissors ( retired ) from SU!  for the bottom pixie pink scallop. For the saying " The Best things  in Life are always hand picked, Like good friends"I used   from the living large stamp set , I took the dauber and applied  a hint of pixie pink over top of the  bottom  saying.. I just love the way these turned out ..

UPDATE! on my crop-a-dile  OH MY Goodness  .. This  tool ROCKS ..  I received my  goody yesterday and I love love Love it ..  You will all want this Fancy tool  for your own ..I promise   Don’t walk ~RUN  to get it ..  Even IF My hubby  had spent  the full price on this tool( which he didn’t )  It is worth its weight in GOLD.. Punching through your chip board is like butter  and setting  eyelets is a dream . This tool is sooo massive in size Don’t be afraid  of it  girls .. I can  do all the punching and setting with one hand.and remember  I  use to use all the reg punches  to make holes and set my eyelets .. actually  setting my eyelets before  use to hurt my hands so much that I had to use the  table top side  rail as  a backing  for my  eyelet setting  with my other punches .(  push  my handles  up against  the table top  and  squeeze   handle .. this was the only way I could set my  eyelets  with out my   eyelets  setter and hammer ( I always hated getting those 3 tools( setter , hammer , mat ) out  Just to set  a couple eyelets )  so then I  started using  the  punches  which were  alot less of a mess  and my punches were always in reach . But man did  it hurt my hands to try and squeeze  those eyelets  to set them . This Crop -a-dile is I believe  the 8th wonder  of the world .. NO kidding I love it that much .. Now I  am so excited to  use it on  everything .. remember  the  tool looks  very intimidating  BUT it is very simple to work   By just remembering  that your 2 side punches are for making your holes( you can even adjust the depth  you want for your holes )   and the  two top   pieces are for  setting eyelets  or snaps  with  different sizes for your different sized eyelets .. The video HERE explains how this wonderful tool  works   I am so excited to hear a few of you have already purchased  yours  from a couple days ago YAHOO! I  promise  you wont be  unhappy with it ..

Last Night Jessie and her friend spent the night  over at grandmas  house  and Me and hubby  relaxed and caught up on all my  CSI  shows  with our TIVO  ( still loving  Tivo )  I felt  the Little sniffles coming on so I just  chilled out on my  comfy couch and  watched one of my Favorite shows CSI .I have to run and get dogie food today  and  finished up on  the last minute things for  tonight’s club meeting .( very exited  about  this ) Please Lord don’t let me forget  something , Like I usually  do . I received more beautiful  cards and goodies  from all of  you   with your payments  for my scissor charms . WOWZIE  just gorgeous  and   you all made my day thinking of me  when mailing  your works of art to  me ..
