Little C's Creations: Creating with Jen

Completed Rolodex with Birthday INFO Card

noreply@blogger.com (Little C's Creations) — Wed, 26 Jan 2022 12:53:00 -1000

Aloha! It's been awhile... I know! I'm so sorry!!! Here is my completed Rolodex with Birthday Info Card adhered to some of the files. In the pink rectangle, would go a pic of the person who's birthday, it is. Just in case I forget how my peeps look like, ya know? No, I'm just kidding, just something a little more personal for me to connect with. I think on the back, I'm going to create another info card on the back showing what gift I purchased for this person. I've also included Anniversaries and my birthday of my Fur Babies... I only finished January thru part of March. I hope I don't take all year to complete this rolodex birthday calendar.

Thanks for popping in!!!

Birthday Rolodex: July August September

noreply@blogger.com (Little C's Creations) — Thu, 6 Jan 2022 22:00:00 -1000

Happy Aloha Friday!!!

Here are more months of my Birthday Rolodex. Being able to use Clip Art Die Cuts (is that was these are called? I'm not sure...) makes it soooo much easier to create and finish quicker. I have evolved from using 'just stamps' to using so many other cute and crafty things. And I'm ok with that. :)

These are almost done... the next step after I'm finished with these is to print out the blank template I created and paste them to regular files that'll be filed in the correct month. Seeing the pics close up has shown me that my eyes have been getting in the way. My eye sight has been getting weaker and gosh darn, I can tell some of these months weren't lined up as good as I wanted them to be. But it's ok... my main thing is that I end up using this calendar and not wasting it just by letting it sit on the side of my shelf, right??

Well, I hope you've had a marvelous week. Thanks for stopping by!!!

Aloha,

Jen

My Melody Tissue

noreply@blogger.com (Little C's Creations) — Thu, 6 Jan 2022 15:57:00 -1000

Aloha friends!! Today, I'm sharing with you a box of tissue that I found at Don Quijote Waipahu while visiting Oahu the most recent trip that I went back home. LOL!. When I first so it, I was like, "NO WAAAAAY!!!!", and there was a box that was opened there, so I peeked in and saw that it is the same My Melody design that I love so much. I just had to get it. They also had a box of Hello Kitty tissue, but I thought I would snag it the next time I go. Now some of my friends are saying they aren't gonna have it when I return. Boo! I will need to let my girlfriend know to pick it up for me, the next time they go there. I should've just grabbed it. But my thing is My Melody, and I adore her more than Hello Kitty, unless HK is in Pink! LOL!!!

Anyways, I opened the box, and used 1 tissue... I wanted to see how 'soft' the tissue was... not as soft as Kleenex, but its soooo cute. It'll be an "ICE" item... you know, "In Case of Emergency" like if I cannot run to the bathroom fast enough to snag me toilet paper to blow my nose, or something like that. If you do decided to go to DQ, please don't buy all the Hello Kitty tissue. I wanna make sure to grab one for myself. Haha! Thank You, in advance!!!

Have a blessed day!!! Thanks for stopping by!!!

Aloha,

Jen

Snow Is Melting

noreply@blogger.com (Little C's Creations) — Wed, 5 Jan 2022 11:56:00 -1000

Yep, snow is starting to melt... but Brrr, it is still so very cold!!! Staying indoors, and not going anywhere, just yet, not only because it's cold, but because the roads are also still so icy n' too slick for us to drive on, since we don't own chains... yet!

Birthday Rolodex: April - June

noreply@blogger.com (Little C's Creations) — Tue, 4 Jan 2022 11:47:00 -1000

Aloha!! Sharing more of my Birthday Rolodex again. 3 months that I am sharing this time are April, May & June.

What do you think? Die Cut Clipart are from Doodle Bug Designs, and months have been cut out on my electronic cutting machine. Someone said that the "May" should be in a darker color. Maybe I'll make it in purple instead? Most die cuts again are from Queen & Co. So happy I'm getting these done.

Thanks for stopping by!!!

Aloha,

Jen

Pineapple Bear Snow Sledding

noreply@blogger.com (Little C's Creations) — Mon, 3 Jan 2022 11:43:00 -1000

We got snow the day after Christmas. Beautiful white everywhere.... loved it. But boy was it cold. We took our Pineapple Bear out to sled around in the snow, but this Hawaii Girl cannot stay out in the cold very long. I'd rather not endure the pain. Haha! I wasn't even pulling her, and I was already freezing. I'm glad I was able to capture these photos of her smiling while being pulled. Shortly after taking these pics, it was right back into the house I went, where it was nice and warm and cozy.

She didn't wanna come back into the house. I tried to reassure her that sand is so much better than snow. I hope she will be able to experience the beaches of Oahu soon.

Thanks for stopping by!!

Aloha,

Jen

Birthday Rolodex: Jan-Mar

noreply@blogger.com (Little C's Creations) — Sat, 1 Jan 2022 22:36:00 -1000

Howdy Friends!!!

Happy 2nd Day of 2022!! I've been working on a Birthday Rolodex Calendar. I had this in process for many months now, and I finally convinced myself that I really should finish it and use it this time. LOL!! I hope I finish it before the 1st birthday that is on my calendar. I'll be posting them 3 months at a time, so here are January to March.

Most of the die cuts on here are from Queen n' Company. The month's is an SVG file from Miss Kate Kuttables, which I cut 3 times each on my Sky Cutting Machine (electric die cutter, similar to the Cricut), and adhered them together to make them thicker n' pop out on the file. Clip Art Dies are from Doodle Bug Designs, and DSP are from my collection... I know some of them are also from Q&Co. A lot of piecing together, and use of glue. Which I found relaxing and fun to do.

Mahalo for stopping by!!

Aloha,

Jen

Happy 2022!!

noreply@blogger.com (Little C's Creations) — Sat, 1 Jan 2022 10:40:00 -1000

Well, here we are, a year later. Last time I've posted to this blog was back in January 2021!! I hardly kept up with my blog, but I did continue to post to my FB, FB Groups and IG. I guess posting to all these social medias got me spinning. I wanted to devote more time in posting here, because I feel I can share more of my words rather than just sharing about what project I've created.

Today's 1st post is the fried rice I made for our New Year's Day "Tradition". Usually for New Year's Eve, I make a pot of Portuguese Bean Soup a.k.a Pocho Bean Soup, and that'll last us couple days. I did make the Pocho Bean Soup and now I've added a new tradition of making Fried Rice for the morning's start. It was so delicious. I've fried up bacon first, added white onions, then Portuguese Sausage... fried those us til' they have a crisp around their edges, and til' the bacon fat were all cooked off. Then added friend the eggs, scrambled them all in there, then finally add in the rice. Rice will absorb all that bacon fat, and you can cook that rice til' it's a little crispy. Then added oyster sauce, shoyu and it's done, ready to serve. After you add to your plate or bowl, sprinkle some furikake on there, and eat away!!!

It was a marvelous start to a new year. From our family to your's, I am praying a healthy and blessed year for you in 2022.

Mahalo for stopping by!!!

Aloha,

Jen

I am Yours Forever - Bible Journaling

noreply@blogger.com (Little C's Creations) — Tue, 20 Oct 2020 12:26:00 -1000

Aloha blog readers!!!!

"I am Yours Forever"... created this bible journaling page, using the words from "Love Came Down". Although this is a song from the worshipper's heart to Jesus, it is JESUS who stands true to these words. He will never leave me or forsake me (Hebrews 13:5), and it is HE that keeps telling me "I am Yours FOREVER".... no matter how many times I may leave him, he still remains with me through it all.

Here are the lyrics (chorus) from this song...

"Love came down and rescued me
Love came down and set me free
I am yours
Lord I'm forever yours
Mountains high or valley low
I sing out and remind my soul
I am yours
I am forever yours..."

I used Honey Bee Stamps "Sweet Sunflower" stamp set. I also did a process video creating this bible journaling page, posted below the pics... 

Gobble Til' You Wobble
