A Couple new Wrappers....












I have affiliated with a wrapper company that I love, but I need to keep the name a secret for a little longer! hehe You'll see why soon. Anyway, I, of course can personalize these wrappers in ANY way! They are of such great quality & so much fun to work with! I have, unfortunately, run into licensing issues and cannot hire consultants, but I am looking at it as a nudge from God saying it would be too much for me to handle right now, so I thank Him that He watches over me so well! Ooooh, it's so nice & cool outside this evening...I love it! More later....

Red Hat Fun!


Just for the record, I'm not old enough to be a Red Hatter yet! But, my Mom & her four sisters are & they love it! In fact one of my Mom's sisters is the Queen Mother! I used my Mom's name on this one...see it on the hat? I just had to create a candy bar wrapper for them, didn't I? Thought you'd like to see it! I am getting ready to add some more wrappers to my site so check it out soon!! More later....

I got an award!!


I'm so excited to recieve this award from Andrea from The Paper Purse !( http://www.thepaperpurse.blogspot.com/ ) You will love all her special creations and she designs her own graphics as well! A great talent! Thank you, Andrea & I love your blog, too!

One more before bed....


I had to add this snowman wrapper! It says: Merry Christmas From One Flakey Bunch to Another! I thought it would be a cute little greeting/gift for close friends or neighbors...you know, the ones that can laugh at being "flakey".... LOL This looks much prettier printed up on the glossy paper I use. And again, I am in love with my new laser printer.... LOL More later...

Rainy Tuesday...


Boy, did I have a hard time functioning today! It was a gray, gloomy day & all I wanted to do is nap!! And my cat, Marbie was all for it! But...I did manage to get a little work done & I made this baby wrapper...again using clipart by Queenie of http://www.designqueenie.com/ Tonight I am working on some birthday wrappers! I stepped outside for some fresh air this evening and it felt heavenly! Nice & cool & breezy! I loved it...I'm ready for Fall. More later.....

"Toadally" Cute!


I love this candy bar wrapper! Its' from http://www.countrycharmgraphics.com/ Of course it can be personalized in so many ways...I love doing my pc-crafting! Many of my friends are into stamping & scrapbooking, which intrigues me a little...and I did dabble in it, but I keep going back to my clipart & graphics! I love working in Photoshop2 & seeing what all I can come up with....Plus I got a new color LASER printer & it's the best thing ever!! I love it & how beautifully it prints out my projects! I am hoping to buy another one before too long! That would mean I am really busy with my candyrwrapper biz! ;o) Thanks for stopping by...check back soon & I will add some more fun designs!

Here's one I just completed & thought it turned out cute! I have found a new site & graphic artist I love...her name is Queenie & the site is http://www.designqueenie.com/ Check it out!

Country Charm Graphics is Awesome!!

I just have to give credit where credit is due!! Krista over at www.countrycharmgraphics.com was so wonderful to me tonight! My computer crashed with a deadly virus over this past weekend & I lost ALL my clipart purchases from over the last few years, but when I dropped her an email she volunteered to go back thru her records & is letting me re-download all the stuff I had gotten from her previously! Wow!! I am so happy! Thanks so much Krista! I love all my printables & things I get from her, especially my "souper" wrappers for soup cans! They sold well for me last year & I'm hoping they will this year, too! Anyway...that's all tonight...I'm a happy camper...and a happy wrapper!! LOL More later....
