Oops

I thought I would have more cards uploaded by now, but when I was photographing them I just couldn't seem to get the lighting right. I had to redo the photos three times before I finally got them right. I guess this will take me a little longer than I previously though! :( I'll start uploading soon - I promise!

NEW CARDS COMING SOON:

Yesterday I spent a lot of time taking photos of quite a few cards I have and haven't given away yet. I haven't downloaded them to my puter yet, but will do that today or tomorrow. I hope to post most of them this week.

Here's a photo of my friend Phyllis. When we were down in Southern California in 2007 we went to the beach in Oceanside. Phyllis and her husband Joe have a time-share down there and they invite me and others down periodically. My niece and her husband, Janay and Mark, live down there too and when we were down in 2008 Janay and Phyllis and I went to Disneyland and had sooooo much fun. Also, one night Janay and Mark came over. Mark brought his guitar and we all sat around singing Christian songs. Even though we were all pretty much off key, we had a blast! Looking forward to next time! We always have such a good time when we go. Thank you, Phyllis and Joe!!! You're awesome friends!!!

I love photography, card making, and have only in the last few years gotten into writing a little poetry. ("The Sea" ... ©  by Cindy Romero 2007.)
This was a card for my grandson, Skyler's 8th birthday. He's now 10. Skyler is an awesome athlete...you should see him golf! He's amazing for his age! Watch out Tiger!!!
Slowly, but surely I'll get a lot of my cards uploaded. And, they probably won't be in any special order at the beginning! I'm finding them little by little amongst all my photos!

This was made with background paper, an online image, and the balls at the bottom are a sticker. The words and the watermark are done in Printshop.

This card is pretty self explanatory...just some stamped letters, flowers, background papers, and a chipboard frame. But, it turned out pretty cute! In fact, I liked it so much I saved it for my Daughter-in-law, Amanda's birthday.
Well, I think I've got this posting down now.

This was a fun card too.
I made it for my son and daughter-in-law as they had just found out they were having their third baby. They already had two boys and when the youngest, Brayden (3), was asked if it was a boy or a girl, his response was, "Oh my God, another boy!"

Here's another birthday card I made for my little granddaughter, Lexi. She is sooooo special...the sweetest little girl in the world! She'll be a teenager this year - UNBELIVABLE!!! It was a fun card to make and she really liked it!

The cupcake is made from a stencil...the frosting was put on with glue and different colored glitter.

I'm trying to figure out how to get an image into this blog...will it work? Well, I think it did! I'll find out in a minute or so!!!
YAHOO!!!  I see it worked! That's GREAT!!! Now I'm EXCITED!!!
Next, I'll see if I can find and insert a photo of myself.
Good luck to me! :)
Well, everything's worked out pretty well...so far I'm pleased!
This card was made with scrap paper, balloon punch outs, and the Happy Birthday was created by me in the Printshop card program...I LOVE the Printshop program...the BEST card program I've seen!!!

Stamp Artistry

My first blog! Yahooooooo! Wow...now what do I say? I've thought about doing this for a while, but have been putting it off. I don't work for a stamp company, nor am I a designer for one. I just love to stamp and make cards out of anything and everything! I also like to incorporate the computer into the inside/outside of the card. As time goes on I will try and post some of my cards...not sure how to do that yet!  I love to look at stamping blogs for ideas, hints, freebies, etc.

May God be real in your life,

Cindy :)
