Just For Fun

It's Time for a new challenge at Tammy's Scrapin Corner and this week the challenge is "Use A Digi," and our sponsors are Bugaboo Stamps and Deasy Designs.  Since this is an easy challenge I think almost everyone should play along this week. I have used this image from Bugaboo  "Fanny Calender Months August."   I have used some fun  papers, pearls, and a Spellbinders Die.

Thanks for looking and have a great day.  

Happy Birthday

It's time for a new challenge at QKR Stampede and this week the challenge is to "Cars. Trains & Planes."  I have used the "Old Car Image" and colored it with Copics and added it to a card base I had left from a card kit from a couple of years ago.  The greeting was already printed on the base.  The watch and scroll are cardboard embellishments from that same kit.  I added a layer of designer paper and my colored image and made this card in no time at all.

Thanks for looking and have a great day.  I will be entering this card in the following challenges...
Kaboodle Doodles - Anything Goes
Creative Fingers - Anything Goes
Inspire Me Fridays - Anything Goes

It's Five O'clock Somewhere

It's time for a new challenge at Sassy Studio Designs and this week it's "Include a Beverage."  I have colored this Sassy Martini image with Copics and cut her out so I could see the beautiful papers I used.  I added a double bow and some pearls and then my sentiment;  I wrote "Coffee keeps me awake until it's time for Margaritas."  Where that came from I have no idea, because my brain was telling me Martinis and my fingers typed Margaritas, and I didn't even see it until I'm writing this post.  Maybe I need to go have a drink tonight; but which should I choose?  a Margarita or a Martini, maybe I will just go to bed and catch up on some much needed sleep, because I'm not really much of a drinker.

Thanks for looking and have a great day.  I will be entering this card in the following challenges...

Imaginary Creatures

Happy Monday all.  I am back home after working in North Carolina for 2 weeks.  It was great to meet all the wonderful people I met and get to see my brother and sister-in-law; but is to great to be back home where my family and all of my supplies are.  And now it's time for a new challenge at Tammy's Scrapin Corner.  This week the challenge is 'Imaginary Creatures" and we have 2 sponsors, SK Digi's and Milk & Coffee Stamps.  I have used an image from each and my first card is "Melting Monster & Happy Monster" from SK Digi's and is colored with Copics.  I have added a computer generated sentiment, 3 ladybug stickers from Stampin' Up, and a few layers of paper.

For the next card I have used this image from Milk & Coffee Stamps called Fiona the Fairy and Her Cupcake, and this is also colored with Copics.  I have added some flowers and papers from my stash.  The star shapes along the left edge are the cut outs from the oval the sentiment is typed on.  The wings have Stickles added on them.   I think every fairy wing should sparkle.  

Thanks for looking and have a great day.  I will be entering the following challenges with these cards...

Recipe cards

It's time for a new challenge at QKR Stampede and this week the challenge is "Fruit &Veggies" and I have colored this great canning jar and apples image with my Copics and used the computer to make some recipe cards to mount the image on.  I made this into a set of recipe cards and I have had several people ask if they could get a set to use as gifts. As most of you know I have been working away from home in North Carolina & doing really long hours and I am ready to go back home and see my hubby & grand kids,whom I am missing so much. 

Thanks for looking and have a great day.

Guest Designer

I am Guest Designer this week at Through The Craft Room Door.  The image is from Anne's Digital Art and is "Butterfly and Daisy."  Daisies are 1 of my favorite flowers. I have colored it using Copics and did an out of the box technique that I have never seen before but just popped into my head.  I had this great piece of pink card stock  left over from a die cut that was just about perfect for my card, but not quite.  I cut just a couple of the petals out so they would overlap the die frame.  Maybe it's been done before and I just haven't seen it.  Anyway I am pleased with how it turned out.  I have a couple of flowers from my stash and a couple of die cut from Marianne Designs, some gems for bling, and a simple Happy Birthday greeting.    




Thanks for looking and have a great day.

Let's Go Camping

It's time for a new challenge at Tammy's Scrapin Corner and this week the challenge is CAMPING.  Our sponsor is Eureka Stamps and I have used this cute  image called digi6104 Father and Son Bear.  Colored with Copics, and added a couple of pine trees and card stock.

I will be home by next weeks post and hope to have more time to get ready.  Thanks for looking and have a great day.

Reminder

Just a quick reminder that the challenge at Kitty Bee Designs is"Congratulations," and you have the rest of this week  to get a project finished for this challenge.  I have used this cute cow image and I have fussy cut it and used a Martha Stewart punch for the flower fence and a Stampin Up punch for the greeting, and a Spellbinder Die for the scallop circle.

Thanks for looking and have a great day.

It's time for a new challenge at QKR Stampede and this week is "Fishing" and I have combined several images to make this fishing card.  I have used digi13209 Going Fishing - digi20301 Fishing Basket - and digi20302 Fishing Fly. 
 Everything is colored with Copics.  This is just a quick post as I am still in North Carolina and didn't bring along enough stuff to do up a great card.  I had finished up a card something like this but had not done a photo and got it ready.  Isn't that what happens when your in a hurry?

Stop over at QKR Stmpede and see what the rest of the DT has created and join in this challenge.  Thanks for looking and have a great day.

Christmas in July

It's time for a new challenge at Sassy Studio Designs and this week we are doing Christmas in July.  I have used this Reindeer Pinup image and colored her with Copics then fussy cut out and mounted her on this fab Christmas paper that looks like a beautiful Christmas gift, and then on a tan card stock.  I am still out on the rode and didn't bring very many supplies along.  After wasting most of my papers experimenting, I have gone with the CAS look. 

Thanks for looking and have a great day.

How Does Your Garden Grow?

Good Morning from North Carolina and it's Monday and time for a new challenge at Tammy's Scrapin Corner.  This week the challenge is "Animals."  The sponsor this week is Just Some Lines and I have used this cute image called "Amber & Pup."  I have colored it using Copics and cut it out using a Spellbinders die.  I have added a couple of floral sprigs cut using a die from Marianne Designs, and some flowers from my stash.  The greeting is computer generated and attached with a couple yellow brads.

Thanks for looking and have a great day.  I hope for great weather for the next couple weeks so I can get out and enjoy this beautiful state after work is finished of course.

Congratulations

This card is my first post as a Designer for the Kitty Bee Designs Team.  The challenge this week is Congratulations, and I have used this cute owl image and colored it with Copics, and fussy cut it out. The die is from Lea abilities, and I have also added a couple of gems from my stash.

  Thanks for looking and have a great day.

Red, White, & Blue

Did everyone have a great 4th of July?  I'm thinking where has the first half of the summer gone?  It just seems after July 4th summer just disappears.  I have a big announcement today.  Here is my first card as a member of the QKR Design DT.  I did a CAS card for this because the image speaks for itself.  I have used the "digi16112 Waving Flag" and colored it with Copics.  The computer generated sentiment is printed on the card stock.  It's all mounted on a couple layers of card stock and I added a couple of fireworks stickers.  The challenge on the QKR Design Challenge is "Rock the Red, White, & Blue."  

Thanks for looking and have a great day.

SSD Freebies

This "Patriotic Pin UP" image will be a freebie for only 48 hours.  You will need to stop at the SSD site and find the details, but let me tell you what I have done with this beauty.  She is colored with Copics and then I did an out of the box technique using an apothecary die from Stampin' Up and then mounted it on several layers of card stock from my stash.  The sentiment is computer generated and cut with an oval punch from Stampin' Up and my bling is Stickles on all the stars that doesn't show up well in my picture.  There are also the stars that  are brads and just a little bit of ribbon.

If you want to get the beauty, head or to the SSD Site because she is only free for 2 days then she will be available in the store.  Thanks for looking and have a great day.

Happy 4th of July

Today is a new challenge at Sassy Studio Designs and the challenge this week is Patriotic (red, white & blue).  I have used this image "Dorothy" and she is colored with Copics.  I have cut a couple stars from paper in my stash, a computer generated greeting, and a few gems for a little bling.  The flag is from a photo I took here in town and then used Photoshop to change it to look like a painting.  Then everything was mounted on a  couple layers of card stock.   

Now stop over at SSD and see the rest of the DT creations and then go make one and enter in this great challenge.  Thanks for looking and have a great day.  I will enter this card in the following challenges....
