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!

Still here...

...just been busy and lazy all at the same time.  I know, how's that possible?  Don't know but I've that is whats truly going on in my live.  My post will get fewer and far between until next year.  But please do check back from time to time cause I will post when I can (if laziness doesn't win).

Anyhow, I'd like to share Mindy's latest kit called Summer Simplicities.  Avail this Sunday at DD.

 

Oh and have you noticed they're already coming out with Halloween designs...crazy!  It's only August and CC Designs has their Halloween line out! Wowzer!  I made these favor samples for Pineapple Cove.  I don't normally give Halloween cards but we all make/do Halloween favors.  I have to say Halloween is one of my favorite holidays besides Christmas!  So here are a couple of favors I made...will post more throughout the week (if I can get to it)

The one on the left (Halloween Birgitta) is a tic tac holder and the one on the right (Sweet November Baby Trick or Treat Hero) is a kit kat holder.    BTW, I snagged this photo from PC's website.  LOL!  Thanks ManLe!


Oh before I forget, Pineapple Cove is now selling Hello Kitty stamps!  AND To celebrate, this weeks 48-Hour Promo is going to be 20% off your Pre-Order of these cute stamps. Sale starts Friday August 13 - 14 . Please visit the webstore to place your pre-order.  I know a lot of my friends who read my blogs are Hello Kitty lovers!  I've already placed my order...now you should too!  Happy shopping!

Wanna win 1000 sheets of paper?

Well guess what...Amy Young from A Thousand Sheets of Paper is giving some major goodies away!  She is celebrating her anniversary (which was Jul 16) and hitting her mark of using 1000 sheets of paper.  I have never known someone to have done that (than again, they may have but didn't know).  So you wanna win some candy?  Simply post this on your blog and spread the word!  Check out the deets on Amy's blog.  Good luck, if I don't win, it would be nice to know one of my followers may!

Pirates of the Caribbean in Hawaii!

Sorry but I'm too lazy to upload pics from my camera to my computer...so I thought I'd take a craft break and post about some exciting things happening on the islands.  Not only are we fortunate enough to live in paradise, BUT we are lucky to have a couple of big Hollywood movie and show filming here!  Two that I can think of at the moment which are Pirates of the Caribbean and the New Hawaii 5-0!  Both of the main stars are my a couple of my favorite actors and thrilled to have them both on the island!  Hope to run into either one or even better...both! ha! Fat chance, but you never know!

Anyhow, we had breakfast on the windward side of the island a couple of weekends ago and noticed the Black Pearl at Kbay...  Exciting isn't it?  I have more pics, but like I said earlier I'm too lazy and for now, you're only getting one pic...lol!

Hope you're all having a great week so far! Aloha!

Candy bar holder

CASE'd this candy bar holder from Michelle.  She gave me a candy bar holder a few months ago and I absolutely loved it.   Anyhow, I made this holder for one of the ladies that works at a LSS.  I rarely see her at the store so I wanted to make sure to give this to her as a thank you for all her help.  Inside the holder is a yummy banana chocolate that dh got from Japan.

Hope everyone has a great week! Aloha!

Mermaid Anya

I haven't inked up my Mermaid Anya since I got her.  And I wanna say I've had her for two years now!  Wow!  That's tellin' you I have way too many stamps!  Yikes!  Anyhow, I made this card for my sis who's bday is next week.  I know, unbelievable I'm actually early AND I have her bday present all ready to mail!  Yeay!  That's a first for me! LOL!  

Sorry for such a short post but I got tons of stuff going on!  I got a lot of Thank You cards I need to make and slowly but surely starting on my Christmas cards so I'll be all ready for them!  Cross my fingers I'll have them done before Christmas!  Thanks for stopping by and I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!  Aloha!

Our Last Challenge...

its bittersweet but we knew it was coming.  This is our last challenge for TGF.  I had tons of working with TGF and the DT gals!  So many inspiration came out of this AND I got to complete a whole album!  Woohoo!

Onto my LO...  I created the background paper using the stars from the In the Spotlight kit, repeated the stars as the accent.  I also used the stitch border from the Sunshine kit. There are so many things you can do with these kits!  Here's my take on my girl Jaci's sketch:

Jaci's sketch...

Now check out my fellow DT's LO's one last time!  Mahalo Nui Loa for taking the time to visit my little ole blog! Aloha!

For Laurie

Don't you just love it when your dh ask you to make a card for his secretary and you say "when is it" and he says "today".  UGH!  I'm giving her some Bath and Body stuff and I thought the Me Time Anya image went perfect with the gift.

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a great week!

Check this card out...

....isn't it just way too adorable?  OMG, I nearly fell out of my seat when I took this baby out of the envelope!  This card was given to me by my dear friend Robyn.  I was very lucky to have met her.  She is the sweetest person.  I will really miss her on our playdates and when I move back to the mainland!  Robyn's last day crafting with us was last week.  She's a teacher and she starts work next week so she'll no longer be playing with us. ☹ I hope from time to time she'll be able to hang out with us! Robyn, don't forget to let us know when you're free and we'll meet up with you!  Thank you so much for my beautiful card!!!  I love it!!!

 Here's a simple card I made for my parents for their anniversary.  Very simple. 

Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend! Aloha!

Up for a Challenge?

If you are, come join in on the fun at the Farm!  Today's challenge is to create a LO with a summer vacation theme.  

I did my LO on last year's summer vacation visiting Harajuku, Japan.  If you've never been, I highly recommend it.  It's a very unique place with lots and lots of shops!  Unfortunately not too many Harajuku girls frequent it anymore...but if you're lucky enough you'll see a handful of them in full costume.  Here's my LO for this week's challenge:

You wanna play along?  Upload your layout to TGF Galleria>SB Kits>Contests/Challenges>Summer Fun!  Be sure to use ONLY TGF Stamps and have FUN!

One random winner will receive the Darling Sisters stamp set!  Good luck and can't wait to see what you create!

Just Because...

Can you believe that I've had Stella for quite a while now...in fact, I think I've had her from when she was first release from TGF.  This is the first time I've actually inked her up and created a card with her!  I have so many TGF stamps that have yet to be used!  As most of you know I'm a huge fan of TGF and really honored to be part of the TGF family.  I could never get tired of any of the characters! 

About the card, I used Kaiser Craft dp and Hey Birdie Clear Stamp, washi tape, Tim Holtz die, Hero Arts sentiment (just because...) and of course Stella from TGF.  Everything except for the washi tape and Tim Holtz die are avail at Pineapple Cove.  

I have a few more cards to make for PC using other Kaiser Craft dp, so be on the look out!  Mahalo and hope everyone has a great Aloha Friday!

It's Challenge time at the Farm!

Today's TGF Sketch LO was provided by me.  I  I literally had no time to do my LO.  I thought it was just too plain (really simple is my style but this was just flat out plain) Without going into details, lets just say when it rains it pours and it did so this week.  Nothing serious just a lot of stuff happening and I totally forgot about my dental appointment...so with that said, my LO suffered. I added the palm tree to spruce it up a bit.  Seriously, when I say I like my LOs simple, I meant it as you can see. LOL!

Any how, here's my take on the sketch:

Here's the sketch:

You wanna play along?  Simply  upload your creation to the TGF Galleria>SB Kits>Contests/Challenges>Sketch by Claudette

Did anyone say Louis Vuitton?

Doesn't this bag resemble a Louis Vuitton purse?  When I saw ManLe's email about what today's project was I was over the moon!  This cute little purse would make such a cute Bridal Shower or Birthday party favor, don't you think?  I absolutely love it.  Now the other ladies decided to go with a different dp/cs but I choose to stay with the same color as ManLe's sample.  I like how it really resembles a LV purse.  If you're interested in learning how to make it, Pineapple Cove will be offering a class.  Check out their site for class details.  As always, thanks for stopping by! Aloha!

Say hello to Shimmer Redkelp

...lol! I crack up every time I read the names of these mermaids.  The names are weird, but the mermaids are so pretty!  Made this card for Pineapple Cove using Kaiser Kraft dp, CC Designs Shimmer Redkelp and Celebrate sentiment from Hero Arts.  All available at Pineapple Cove (except for the oval and scallop punch).  If you're not on the island you can still make a purchase through their website!

Can you see the glimmer in her hair? Click on the pic to enlarge.

OK as for the blog giveaway, I decided to hold off on it yet again! Why is it whenever I plan on doing one, everyone is doing one?!?!  LOL!  It's all good.  But I don't want my blog giveaway to get lost in all the other giveaways.  So I'll wait for the majority of them to die down before i do mine.  Stay tune!

Oh before I forget here are Mindy Terasawa's two newest kits avail at DD.

Aren't they so pretty?!?!!

TGF - Time-less LO Challenge

Aloha!  It's Thursday and that could only mean it's TGF Challenge time!  Challenge theme is to use Time, clock. watch anywhere in your LO.  This was  a hard one for me but I pushed through and finished my LO barely in time (no pun intended).  Literally I was running out the door as soon as I scanned and sent my LO off to Jessica!  Whew, it was definitely a close one today!

So you wanna play along?  Simply Upload a layout using TGF Stamps that uses a TIME theme-aka clocks, watches, and other elements of time into your layout!   It doesn't HAVE to be SUMMER time, either, but we all used our new Sunshine kit so SUMMERTIME it was!   Just use TGF Stamps and incorporate TIME.

*One lucky winner will receive Oliver/Amelia "JOURNEY", the newly released 4x6 set!

*You have until Tuesday, July 13th to upload to the (now working) Gallery!!!


Here's my take on the challenge:

A Cupcake for you and Quickpage winners!

Quick post...made this card for Pineapple Cove.  Everything I used on the card (except for the ribbon) is from Pineapple Cove.  The stamp is CC Design's Cupcake Belle, DP is Kaiser  Craft Hey Birdie Collection.  Check out the store located at the Kahala Mall or  you can visit them online here.

Winners for the Spaceman Quickpages are:

Please email me so I can send you the files.  Peks, just call me so I can explain or do it for you! LOL!  As always thanks for stopping by.  Check back next week...I am finally going to do the blogcandy that I was suppose to do back in Jan!

Too my BFF

Aloha Friday!!  I made this card for my BFF Cindie.  It's a big bday for her (won't say how old) but it's one of those milestone birthdays.  Her actual birthday isn't until Aug, but I wanted to get her birthday gift to her ASAP cause she decided not to have a party or anything special done on her birthday.  All she wanted was a certain expensive thing (I won't say what).  Anyhow, the gift I was initially planning on buying her fell through and I can't get it until I go back to Japan, I thought getting her a GC to this certain store to help w/her purchase would be the next best thing!  Like I mentioned earlier, I needed to send it to her ASAP since I have no idea when she was planning on getting it.  Was it before her special day or after??  So since the dh was heading to her neck of the woods for work, I rushed to make the card and to get her gift.  Figuring out what stamp image to use for her bday card was hard.  She's not into crafts and she's not into saving cards (yeah, yeah, I know...why am I friends with her? Let alone her bff? LOL!).  But I figured she is after all my bff, it is a special birthday AND she sees what I make for everyone else so...I just had to make her a card!  I used one of my all time favorite stamps right now...Treasure Tempestwind!  LOL, yeah I know...an odd name but I think these mermaids (her and her sisters) are sooo pretty!  If you don't have these stamps yet, let me tell you...they're huge! So fitting them on an A2 (is that the size of standard card?) is not that easy espeically when you wanna show the dp behind it.  Anyhow, I just love these mermaid images!  

As usual, thanks for stopping by!  Have a safe and happy 4th of July!  Aloha!

Oooh, btw, I forgot to mention there are two winners of my Quickpage giveaway that I mentioned here.  Please check back this weekend (maybe Sunday) for the winners! 

Aloha it's anthoer TGF Challenge!

This week sketch challenge is by Lynda!

Here's my take (I turned it around)

This LO is about our time at Tokyo Disney Sea!  We had just gotten off their water ride, which was so needed cause the humidity in Japan was horrendous!  If I could I would have stayed on that ride the entire day!  We were soaking wet, you could see it on Cyn and Steph's shirt but not on mine since I was wearing black.  We definitely had so much fun that day even if we were all miserable in the humidity!

Of course I used the Sunshine kit for this LO along with Mindy Terasawa's Sun Shiney Day kit.  I stamped the flowers on the bottom, used the stitch stamp along the borders of my LO and I also used the Smiley flowers as embellishments.

Now it's your turn...take the challenge, create a LO based on Lynda's sketch, who knows you could be the lucky winner!!!  Simply upload your LO to  TGF Galleria>Scrapbooking Kits>Contests/Challenges> 7-11 Sketch (I'm not quite sure if that's the exact folder, but you'll see it when you navigate around the gallery...As of right now Jess has not created a folder...will post a new link if it isn't what I posted.

For Cass

Made this card for my GOD Daughter Cass.  I owe her last years birthday pres, Christmas, 6th grade grad so I couldn't or didn't think it was appropriate to make her a card for all those occasion and decided to just make a universal card.  Call it lazy or procrastinating but I at least made her a card.  

As of right now, this little cutie is my favorite out of the Farm line!  I thinks she's so adorable and thought it would be perfect for Cass.  Since I see Fleur more Hawaiian than an Enchanted little cutie, I thought what a perfect card from me to her!  Blah, blah, blah, blah! haha!  I'm exhausted, it's well pass midnight and I have a long and early day tomorrow!  So without further ado here's the card (lifted the LO from the Artist behind the Farm)

Hope you're all having a wonderful day!  Aloha!

Patriotic Cheeky!

OK, that's not really her name...LOL!  But I thought she looked so patriotic with her uniform and all...  Made this card for Pineapple Cove.  Got all the supplies from PC, if you didn't know they now have an online store!  For all my friends and family that has been asking me where I get my stuff, click on the link and it'll take you to PC shop site.  You can also visit their blog here.

Happy stamping!

TGF Challenge - Jacilynn's Sketch

Happy Thursday!  It's TGF Challenge time!  Sorry for posting this late.  I went to the dentist yesterday and after I got home I wasn't feelin' up to it.  They redid my old fillings and my body's metabolisim was on overdrive and they needed to numb me SEVERAL times.  I don't mind the shots, I just kept feelin' the drilling...yikes!  Needless to say I wasn't feelin' all to well afterwards and was in bed the whole night!  

Anyhow, it's another challenge at the Farm so please join us!  Our sketch was from the talented Jacilynn, she's is rolling w/the sketches don't you think?  Upload your layout using TGF Stamps to TGF Galleria>Scrapbooking Kits>Contests/Challenges> 6-24 Sketch.  ONE lucky winner will receive the new MY FAVORITE THING set featuring Oliver and Amelia!  

Here's mine:

Sorry about the horrible pic, the lighting in my office was horrible!!  Plus I printed out a scanned photo and it was awful!

Oops...

I forgot to post this on Father's Day!  I made this card for my dad on Father's Day...made my FIL a different one but I like this one.  I lifted the LO from Kristine W.  Nothing special about it except it's for my dad.  I don't know about creating masculine cards w/my Ian's or Wild Sprout when it comes to older men...LOL!  But that's not to say I won't.  Just felt I'd make them something different.  Thanks for stopping by!  Aloha!

A card for baby Joey

Short post today...so much going on.  It's 2:27 AM and I still up! Been doing a lot of research and on top of that, I had my allergies earlier today, took benedryl and slept the day away.  I suppose I need to call it a night after I post this.  Anyhow, here's a card I made for my cousin's son.  Used Mindy Terasawa's Monster Muncher's which you can get at DD.  Real simple card...  Thanks for stopping by!  Happy Aloha Friday!

TGF Summer LO Challenge!

Hey folks!  It's Challenge time at the Farm!  Our challenge was to create a summer theme LO.  I just love summer and living in Hawaii, we have that year round.  

I created this LO of my dad and my sister at the famous Waikiki beach.  They were visiting during Christmas (see...I wasn't joking about our summers being year round...LOL).  Going to the beach with my dad was a milestone because he had suffered a stroke and heart attach eight months prior.  It's a slow and long recovery but he's making it and I thank GOD everyday for this miracle!!! 

Please join us and create a LO with a summer theme!  Easy-peasy!  I'm sure since most of you have kids on summer vacation already and if you're a scrapper you've already busted out the camera!  LOL!  Join us and upload your LO at:TGF Galleria>Scrapbooking Kits>Contest/Challenges>Beach Theme no later than Tuesday, June 22nd.  Winner will be announced on Thursday the 24th with our next SB contest and ONE LUCKY WINNER will receive a 4x6 set of their CHOICE!

TGF Sunshine Kit Avail TODAY!

Hello! Just a reminder that the TGF Sunshine Kit is available today at the Farm.  Run on over and grab it!  Made this real simple card using it...super cute stamps!!  Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Monday!

O-M-G! I just LOVE the mermaid image from Amy!  She is one talented artist and these mermaid stamps has to be my new favorite stamps!!  Look how pretty she looks!  Anyhow, here's my card...it's a bday card for my SIL and I absolutely love the dp I used...so colorful and vibrant...don't you think?  LOL

Thanks for stopping by!!!  BTW, I got these stamps from Munchkins at the Mililani Towne Center.  If you want her, hurry up cause Cyn only had a couple left.

It's FFF at the Farm (TGF)

Aloha!  Today is FFF (Farm Fresh Friday) at the Farm today!!  We're to make a LO using another wonderful sketch from Mercy!  Please feel free to join us on this challenge!!!

Here's my take on the sketch

Doesn't this LO scream SUMMER VACATION?  LOL!  I took this photo when we were visiting the island of Maui.  Love that there weren't anyone in this photo.  Usually the beaches are crowded.  Of course I used the new TGF SB kit Sunshine!  See how versatile this kit is?  I mean yesterday's LO was of Japan, today its of Hawaii! 

Simply upload your LO or card to the following gallery category:

TGF's New Scrapbook kit - SUNSHINE!

Hey everybody!

We are SO stinkin' excited over at The Greeting Farm...and ready to spread the SUNSHINE!  Why?  Because SUNSHINE is the name of the newest 8 1/2x11 JUMBO KIT of rubber stamps being previewed today on the TGF Blog!

Just in time for summer, SUNSHINE is full of larger sized stamps, perfect for scrapbooking, cardmaking, or any papercrafting!  And ONE LUCKY WINNER just might take one home after hoppin' around the Scrapbooking DT's blogs today!

In addition?  The TGF Scrapbooking Team is THRILLED to welcome LYNDA NIELSEN to our gang!  You may recognize Lynda as one of our Gardeners and now she is back and ready to get scrappin'!   Welcome!

For our Challenge today, (did you KNOW that TGF is doing weekly scrapbooking challenges on the TGF Blog?) I used this great sketch by SB team member Jaci:

My layout today is (what else...JAPAN!) I'm tryin' to finish at least one album this year!  LOL!  And since I have tons of photo's of my trips back home, I thought since they're all still fresh in my memory to finally complete a whole album!  Of course that doesn't mean that all my LOs will be of Japan after all this is a summer kit, but just because it's a summer kit doesn't mean you have to use it for just the summer LOs!!  That's what is so great about these kits!  They're so versatile!  Anyhow, This is my title page of my album. 

I'm so excited to show you more week after week and hope you'll play along with our challenges too!  They are every Thursday for scrapbooking and each week we offer up a GREAT prize!

Not much time...

Aloha! Sorry been MIA since last Friday.  From here on out  who knows when I'll be able to post.  I'm a bit sad I won't be able to create and blog as often as I would like but what can you do?  Hopefully once everything is all done I can get back into the groove.  But until then, I'll at least have two or three (if I'm lucky) updates on my the blog.  Thanks as always for stopping by and checkin' in!  Again, I hope to find some time to visit everyone's blog!

Onto my card, this card is for my dh's niece.  Seems like this is my go to LO when I when I'm in a hurry.  It's cool...I don't mind.  I'm just happy I get to create something!

I just adore this image.  It's of Cuddle Anya which I got from Pineapple Cove.  If you want her please visit ManLe's store or for those of you who are not living on the island they now have an online store.  I also used my girl Mindy's dp called It's a Girl Thing which you can purchase here.  And while you're there, check out her other great kits!!!

And just because I'm feeling generous, I will give away this quickpage to one lucky follower.  Please leave a comment telling me where you're from, how'd you find my blog and what is your favorite place to shop (craft shopping) online.  Good luck!

PS Please check back later tonight for the preview of the new TGF Scrapbook Kit!

PSS - I'll be teaching another Copic Hair Session at Pineapple Cove this weekend.  I believe there's a couple of seats still open.  Please contact ManLe to reserve a seat.  Thanks and hope to see some of you there!

Coaster Bag

The other day we had a playdate at Pineapple Cove and we made this cute little Coaster Bag.  I have to say, whenever I'm there I never really make anything or finish a project but I was so into it I made two.  Actually I didn't finish them cause we were missing the bags so I had to finish it at home  (I rarely finish a project if I take home) and this is the outcome:

I have another one in the works but I'm not making it a bag...stay tune (like I'm sure you're on the edge of your seat waiting to see what I come up with...NOT! LOL!).  The paper I used was from Leslie's pile (thanks Leslie!).  I just thought it was just the cutest dp!

Anyhow, thanks for looking!  I hope to have some time to visit everyone's blog!  Hope everyone is doing well!  Aloha!

PS you can get the coasters from Pineapple Cove.  Also if you didn't know Pineapple Cove has an online store now!  Check it out!!!

TGF Flower Challenge

Aloha!  Its Challenge time!  This week's challenge is to use flowers in your LOs.  Here's my take on the challenge.  I used Prima Iced Flowers and of course the In the Spotlight Kit by TGF.  LO is of myself and my BFF Cindie.  She truly is my bff, can't find anyone like her...LOL!  Crazy! haha!  Anyhow, please join us and upload your LO at the
TGF Galleria>SB Kits>Contests/Challenges>Flowers Everywhere

I'm not sure if you can tell but I used the butterfly on the background to make my own paper.
