What's on your list?

 I've come to realize there is just no getting ahead, or even just slightly caught up in the crafting world when it comes to those magically infinite things we call our wishlists.   Every time I think I"m getting close to paring my list way down, badaboom, new release &/or CHA time!   Have you seen all the cool new stuff that's coming out?!  Not to mention the things we have only been given teasing little sneak peeks of. 
So, what's on your list?  Inquiring minds want to know..... 
No really, I DO want to know.  (I may have missed something that I need to go check out, he,he.) 
Me?  Well, I'm always wanting more Lawn Fawn stamps, and of course there are tons of new paper lines coming out and new Spellbinders dies that I want to get my hands on.  Luckily I haven't really seen any new  machines that I think I've just got to have.

Speaking of Lawn Fawn, I whipped up a card for Lawnscaping Challenge #26: Winter Wonderland
sets used- LF: Ornate Ornaments and Winter Bunny, Hero Arts: Thinking of You
This is one of those times that I am totally baffled by the way this photographed.  There is very subtle inking around the frame of blue and lavendar, but in this pic it looks like dark blue blotches. 
I have got to invest in some kind of photo editing software!  Any suggestions, and please keep in mind, I am a total dunce when it comes to computers.
Have a great rest of the week everyone.  (I really do hope you'll tell me what's been added to your lists.)

  4. Tami, your card is super cute! Love it. Do you use any type of photo editing program? Usually there's some kind of Auto Adjust button that will lighten a dark picture. I always try that first. If that doesn't work, I try to fine tune it further. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Just recently, I bought an Ottlite at Joann's. It was only $20!!! So I couldn't pass it up. That's supposed to give true, natural lighting. The first time I used it, I was real pleased--thought it really made a difference in my picture. The second time I used it, I didn't seem to be getting as good a result, so I'm still testing. I think the quality of a picture also has a lot to do with color of the card, background used, camera setting, so many things can skew your result. Wishlists...hmmmm. I just used some of my Cricut rewards points and ordered Stand and Salute. Would like to have that for summertime and other events. I love embossing folders, and think I'm going to order some online that I never seem to find at my local scrap store. And actually, I still have cartridges that I haven't even opened yet. Even though I've been at this a year, I feel like I've still only scratched the surface. There's so many images on all these carts I haven't tried yet! I'm trying to make that a goal of mine this year, but I just don't have enough time! I wish I didn't work so that I could spend all my time in my craft room!!--Pat N.

  11. I have that bunny stamp too, it's one of my favorites. I love the scene that you created for the sledding bunny. Great job on your card.

    I was just thinking about CKC this morning. To be honest I am just now discovering some of the new things that are coming out like the DCWV cardstock that you can write on with Chalk! That looks like fun. I need to do a lot of looking around now that I'm back in the craft world.

  22. Hi Girl its been a while since i had heard from you. As far as the word verification i think it change this week and its terrible. I sent her an email and told her it wasn't fun anymore when i had to sit there and try to figure that stuff out as high as 3 times before getting it right and i wouldn't do it anymore. When you got 2/3 rds DT with it also. Lastly my making all those buttons and broaches and keys and roses came from your site. I checked out MoldMuse from clicking on it here on your blog and i was hooked. I love making them, so thank you!!! Now how are you doing? Great I hope i am doing fine myself. :)
