**Oma's Crafts**: Pixie Dust Studio

I have to admit that I am so totally NOT the outdoors kind of girl. I do not like bugs, scared to death of bees and wasps. No itchy scratchy mosquito bites for me. That being said I DO love this card. lol

The images are from Pixie Dust Studio. I cut a half circle of honeycomb paper and used a yellow and orange Copic marker to color the edges when it was still closed so when it opened it looks a little like a blazing sun.

The sentiment combines 3 different K Andrew Designs stamp sets.

"Splashtastic Summer"

"Winter Wishes"

"Coffee & Tea for You & Me"

If you would like to add any of the crafty supplies, I used on my project, to your crafty stash just click on the pictures above to make it so.

Welcome to the 3 Girl JAM "Nice To Meet You" Blog Hop.

If my sweet DT sister Avery over at Iowa Craft Girl sent you here then you are on the right track. If you just happened to stumble upon this hop and want to start from the beginning, please go back to the beginning and visit Julie at A Little Bit of Bling.

Today the design team is hopping by to introduce ourselves and show you some of the fun things you can do with the awesome

3 Girl JAM products!

My name is Gloria and I am a mom of 1 adult daughter. I have 3 (almost 4) grandkids that call me Oma, which is German for grandma. This is where my blog name “Oma’s Crafts” came from. We have 4 generations living under the same roof. It can be very challenging at times but also rewarding. I find myself hiding in my craft room to get a little peace and quiet though.

I usually don’t act my age!! I have been a child care provider for many years so being around kids a majority of the time I start acting like one. You know how they say some people start looking like their pets well maybe I have started acting like my kids. :-) I also teach Bernina owners classes at my local shop and recently started teaching some paper crafting at our local JoAnn’s.

I have been crafting for as long as I can remember. It started with latch hook rugs, then plastic canvas and counted cross stitch through high school and up until 2005 when I got my first embroidery machine. In the summer of 2010 hubby and I were in Wal Mart and I saw the Cricut and the rest is history!!!

I started my blog about 1 ½ years ago and am loving it. I love making cards, 3D projects and minis. There are only 37 kids in my grandkids school so when I make treats I make 50 of them for all students and staff. I make a lot of lunchbox notes for the 2 oldest grandkids which they really like seeing each day.

I first got to know Julie (founder of 3 Girl JAM along with her 2 daughters) when she asked me to be part of her grand opening blog hop and I have loved her every since. I am so honored that she actually chose me to be a member of the first ever 3 Girl JAM Design Team!! How cool is that!! I am also excited about being in the company of some extremely talented crafters.

My project for today is in honor of our fearless leader because I consider her one of my besties!
