OUR PRAYERS HAS BEEN ANSWERED!

Rex has been found!  Thanks to everyone who spread the word out about him!!!!  GOD is good!

PLEASE HELP!

I'm posting  in hopes that one of my HI friends can help!

OAHU Friends, please be on the look out for our friends dog, Rex. He went missing on Saturday and lives in the Aiea/Pearl City area. He's only 4 years old, weighs about 65 pounds, and is reddish/brown and black (looks like a german shepherd with a Rottie head), real friendly n' loves people. Last seen around the Waimano Home Road area. Please contact 927-4114 if you happen to see him.

Belated Happy New Years Everyone!

Hi all! It's been a while!  Hope you all had a Merry Christmas and that your New Year started off with a big bang! Lots of stuff going around at the Islander Girl  household.  One of which is our household location has relocated...LOL! We are slowly settling back to life here and I have been s-l-o-w-l-y unpacking. I say slowly as the dh is away for a month.  Which of course means unpacking is obviously resting solely on my shoulders (until he gets back).  Other than movin there had been a couple of obstacles (no worries, I will not go into details...).  Crafting has definitely been on the back burner.  I don't know quite when I will be able to craft, all my craft supplies are still in boxes waiting for my studio to be built next month (to say I'm excited is a bit of an understatement). 

Anyhow, I wanted to stop by and do a Birthday Giveaway.  My birthday was Saturday and I wanted to give a little something to all my loyal followers... all 3 of you...haha! I've been meaning to blog about this a few weeks ago but of course I wasn't able to.  So without further ado, here's what one lucky commenter will win:

All of these goodies have been graciously donated by Pineapple Cove.  
I will also be adding to this stash as I slowly unpack.  
Two other commenter will receive something small.

You wanna know how to win?  Easy!  Simply leave a comment on  Pineapple Cove's blog by Monday, February 7 at 9:00 PM (PST). Increase your chances of winning by posting about this giveaway via twitter or your blog. Be sure to  go back to Pineapple Cove's blog and post a link in the comments section (please post as a new comment each time). 

Bernice and Jenny V...

...please send me an email.  I'm on my laptop and don't have your email address on it.  This is in regards to your prizes.

Thanks!!

And the Winners are...

Here's a preview of all who entered:

 

Congratulations, Bernice, Leslie and Jenny V!!!  Please send me your snail mail address.  Please note, the stamps have not come in yet, as soon as we receive them we'll send them out to you!

For all those who participated in voting, please send me your snail mail address as I have a little thank you gift for everyone. 

Hey All!  Hope you all had a wonderful Halloween! Ours was quiet.  M was tired from his trip and being 6 hours ahead so to say he has jetlag is a total understatement.  Any who, I've been busy (yeah, yeah...I know everyone is just as busy as me...but really I have been really busy...lol).  I'm tryin' to fit everything in.  I am horrible when it comes to time management so please bear with me.  I will (hopefully) write everyone's name down and do a drawing tonight (I say hopefully because we have two appointments today) so I hope to have time to do it, if not tonight hopefully (I'm using that word a lot) tomorrow.  Please check back to see if you're one of the lucky winners!  Thanks again for all the support!

Mindy's Latest...

Hi all!  Just wanted to share Mindy's latest Kit.

Look how adorable this kit is!

 

Here's another Halloween favor for those that don't have time to make anything fancy.  All you do is print, cut and add to a 4x6 baggie (you can resize it to fit whatever baggie you have...beauty of digital).

 All of which you can purchase here.  Stay tune as I may be giving one lucky commenter a copy of the  treat toppers!

I got a few minutes to spare and thought I'd upload a card I made for Pineapple Cove a few weeks ago.  I used TGF's latest Miss Anya.  Here's the card, sorry not much to say but I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed w/things to do...aren't we all! (can you hear the violins playin'? (^o*) wink*wink)  Have a great week and hope everyone is doing well!  Aloha!

BTW, the Cutesy Treat Box I made for Mindy is now available for purchase at DD.

Thank You!

Made this card for my tenants who take such great care of my house on the mainland.  I wished they'd get stationed here so they can rent this house after we leave.  But unfortunately they got orders elsewhere.  Boohoo!  LOL!  Anyhow, I made this card for them as a thank you for taking card of the house and whatever issues it has.  I'm using the leftover dp from the Kaiser Craft from Pineapple Cove.  It may look like a card I made before, but it's not.

  As always thanks for stopping by.  Hope everyone is having a great week so far!  Aloha!

Another Bday Card!

This time its for my girl Les!  She's been such a great friend and so glad to have met her and gotten close to her!  Les is a shabby chic kinda chick and well, I don't do shabby chic.  So I decided to make her a card that was more me so she can remember me when I finally leave the island.  So here's the card I made for her...

(sorry for the blurry photo...hand shook and didn't have time to take another)

TFL!!!  Have a great week!  Aloha!

Happy Birthday Maggie!

LOL! It was my girl Margarita's bday on the 12th and I didn't want to post this card up until she got her package.  Sorry for the short post but I got a few things to do...  Happy Thursday everyone!

Cutesy Critter Halloween favor boxes

Wow, blogging two days in a row! Wanted to get these done early for Mindy cause I know I won't have that much time come Halloween.  I'm exhausted and I don't really want to write too much.  I am the worst writer ever and when I'm tired it's even worse (if you can imagine).  So without further ado, here are two of the three boxes I made.  I may make one or two more. 

I created these favor boxes where you can either insert a photo or cut out a window.  I know the candies doesn't go well with the Halloween theme but I am NOT buying any Halloween candies yet!  I was tempted since Target has all the Halloween stuff out already!  But I was good and I resisted (^o^)☺

If you have any questions regarding these favor boxes, leave a comment or shoot me an email.  I'm not sure if/when Mindy will have them up at the store, but as soon as I find out I'll let ya'll know! 

Before I forget, I had a couple of comments and emails regarding my Pumpkin Anya.  She is an altered Anya.

Wishing everyone a great week!

Happy Sunday!

Aloha! Wanted to share Mindy Terasawa's latest Halloween Kit called Cutesy Critters.  I used it to create the below cards.  The kit is available at DD.  Check it out! It's so cute!  I absolutely love it!  

 

Spring Drop Mini Kit by Mindy Terasawa

New kit from Mindy...it's so springy!  I just love the color!  Available at DD now!

I'm still here

I know it may seem like I'm not but I am.  I have been creating, just not as often as I would like.  Uploading the pictures is another step, one that I cannot get myself to do lately :(  So I thought I'd post a picture of what I created for Pineapple Cove using the Hello Kitty stamps.  I think they are just way too adorable.  I knew exactly what I wanted to create off the bat.  As usual, I swiped the pic from PC's blog.  I believe we'll be doing a class at PC focused on Halloween treats/favors.  Stay tune for the announcement (yeah, yeah, I know you're waiting off the edge of your seat! ha!).

Thanks for stopping by, I hope I'll have some downtime to visit everyone's blog!  Have a great Thursday!  Aloha!
