Arriving in NYC - LaGuardia

Taking a quick break from all my postings - whew!!!   

Went to NYC (Brooklyn) last month to see the kids and grandkids and flew over

New York in a different way than we usually come in.  Got some fabulous photos

of the city and also of Flushing Meadow park with the old World's Fairgrounds -

 theTennis Stadium and Citi Field.  

Some great shots of LaGuardia too.   

Hope you enjoy them :)

 Nice view of the Statue of Liberty, the Staten Island Ferry Boats and New Jersey.

Lower Manhattan, Roosevelt Island & the Brooklyn Terminal.

 

 Great view of lower Manhattan (Battery Park) - Roosevelt Island - New Jersey 

on the top part and Brooklyn on the bottom part.

The new World Trade Center

 Lower Manhattan from the Brooklyn Side - 

Nice shot of Dumbo (home of Fishbucket International -  

my son-in-law's web design company)

 

 Great view of LaGuardia just before landing.

You can see why it flooded during Sandy!  

 Citi Field and the Tennis Stadium

A great overview of Citi Field, the Tennis Stadium and some of

the old buildings in Flushing Meadow Park from the

World's Fair 1964-65

Hope you enjoyed the view.

So Many Cookies - So LittleTime

 So Many Cookies - So Little Time.....    Santa's got to eat all those cookies.....  

It's making me hungry!!!

This is a fun image from Inky Antics that I've colored with my Copics 

and glitzed  up using Sparkle N Sprinkle's fabulous new 

Velvet Glitters -  Gypsy Red and Cloud Nine.  

I just love the feel of them and what a shine they produce.

Snowmen have more fun

And the roll continues :)    Here's a cute little Snowman image from Penny Black that's one of my all time favorites.  I used some of Sparkle N Sprinkle's Super Adhesive Sheets - peeled off the protective backing from one side - layered it onto a piece of cardstock - die cut my circle - covered it with Cloud Nine Velvet Glitter from SNS - stamped the image with Memento ink and colored it with Copics.  LOVE LOVE LOVE the look.  The Copics are sheer so the glitter just shines thru the coloring.

Here's another card done using the same technique.  This stamp image is from Print Works.
On this image, after I colored it, I added some SNS Dimensional Glue to the hooks and the toppers and covered it with Reflections Velvet Glitter.

 

Christmas Froggy Style

I know, right now you're thinking - she's on a roll!!!   I actually spent some time in my craft room last week creating!!!   Hopefully, this trend will continue and I'll have time to post more often - BUT - I'm not holding my breath LOL....   
Here's a fun card with a Penny Black image from a few years back.   Copics,  some fabulous Sparkle N Sprinkle velvet glitter and google eyes  add to the fun.  The tiny rick rack is from May Arts.

 

Pet Sympathy

Sparkle N Sprinkle has an excellent Stampette Set for those times when someone you know has lost their 4 legged companion.  If you're a pet lover, then you know how hard it is to say goodby.   Here are a couple of cards I have made up for those sad occassions.

 

 

Get well soon....

Here's another fun card - again, an image stamped from my sister, Lynn's collection.  I suspect it's an Art Impressions image, but not sure.   Just want you don't want to see coming at you in the hospital LOL....  Colored with my trusty Copics.

 

Golf anyone???

It's been a while, but here's a cute card that I did the other day for a craft sale. It's an image that I had stamped at my sister's - so don't remember exactly what company it's from - but it's a fun image.
Colored it with copics and added a little "snowball" for the golf ball.   One of my favorite embossing folders (Swiss Dots) and some Spellbinder dies and I was ready to go.  Hope you enjoy it.
Okay - my sister has responded - it's an Art Impressions image :)
