Ladies night out....and on location at the New Moon Set!!

Rhonda, Cindy and I lived life out on the edge this evening. Their husbands will think we were crazy, but out at 8pm we went looking for the New Moon Film Set for apparent filming at Bella's house. They may have doubted our abilities. But they were wrong. We found the set lot and we heard the wolves howl. It was an awesome night out. Now we have to go back during the day for better pictures!!


Approaching the set from the side field gave us great light and a good side view of the set location, but we couldn't see Bella's house.

We think that we can see a trailer here, after being asked to leave the location and our fabulous side view. LOL.



The back view of the lot, yes the lights really were that noticeable, with night filming apparently happening.


Rhonda navigated us back and around to find a new approach, stealth as we can in a car with camera's flashing!


Where we stopped for a while to see if any more vans would be coming or going, just in case we could see a star or two.


A new approach from the road where the van was seen coming in when we were still way across and walking on the field. Notice the blurry car lights up ahead? Another car approached the front entrance and we followed them in.

As close as we could be to the front gate without being yelled at by security. Yes we understand you have a job to do, all we want is just a non blurry picture or two, sir! All in all a successful evening out with Rhonda and Cindy. I am so thankful for my Twilight crazy friends!! Only 208 days till we see it back to back in the theatre girls!!!!

Inspired....okay totally CASE'd

I saw this cute card on Dawn McVey's blog and thought "Oh, I like that, and I have that punch." And my friend's birthday was coming up so I thought I am going to recreate that card. Here is card that was my inspiration. Okay I should say I totally CASE'd this card and I am not really ashamed of it. I love how this card came out!!! Thanks to Dawn McVey and her fantastic blog!! Then inspiration hit and I was able to come up with the previous cards on the 4 previous posts!! I love it when that happens!! So here is the card that got the creative juices flowing again!

Stampin Up Pink Pirouette Cardstock. Basic Grey Porcelain Paper. Stampin up curly label punch. Prima flowers. Bling from my stash. Stampin Up Chocolate Chip grosgrain ribbon and Chocolate Chip Ink. Sentiment from The Best Yet Stampin Up set. Corner rounder.

Blue Skies and Sunny Days! Yeah!!

Copic Markers- too many to list, lol.

Coffee time

A plethora of stamps used today for this card. Stampin Up for the cup and steam. Lizzie Anne Designs for the sentiment. Inkadinkado for the circle distressed stamp (it reminded me of a coffee cup spill and I had to have it, in this case all my foam spilled out. he he) The foam is Liquid Applique and then colored with my Copic E35. The Ink is Stampin Up - Whisper White, Memento - Tuxedo Black, All My Memories - Caramel, Versamark. I embossed the sentiment with scented Gelly Powder by Gelatin Stamps, it is the Extra Foam Latte scent. The cardstock Chocolate Chip and patterned paper (I can't find the name of it) is Stampin Up. Except for the white cardstock which is by The Paper Cut. The Copics used are E 50,51,53 on the steam, R22, 24 on the heart, E 47, 49 on the middle of the cup, G 85 and BG93 on the cup top and bottom.

Dragonfly

Tried a new technique that I had seen online awhile back, stamped my Stampin Up vine from Baroque Motifs in Versamark and then re-stamped over the same area in Stazon white. The top lined up perfectly and looks fantastic, the bottom didn't line up as well and shows a bit more than I would like. Overall though I liked the look and would definitely try it again. The sentiment is from one of my favourite quote companies Stampers Anonymous. They always have great stamps and this one when I saw it I knew I had to have it for this year, my year of possibilities. The paper is leftover from another project and is by Imaginisce- Baby Powder King of the Crib. The cardstock is Stampin Up Kraft and Baja Breeze. The little dragonfly pebble is from Prima. Ribbon is from the stash. Scalloped punched by hand with the corner rounder and the double circle punch is Stampin Up.

Butterflies

Supplies: I used my new Martha Stewart butterfly punch and a small Fiskars butterfly punch. The card stock is Stampin Up- Very Vanilla, Going Gray, and Baja Breeze. Stamps by Amuse- clouds and the sky's the limit. The small dot stamp is by Technique Tuesday. Ink is Technique Tuesday and Stampin Up. Oval Punch and Tag by Stampin up. Baubles from my LSS and don't have a company listed on them. Cuttlebug embossing folder.
