Good morning!  I know, 2 days in a row - impressed, right?

We had our roof replaced yesterday - BOY was that loud!  So the kids and I hid down in the basement for a repreive in our craft/play room.

I made this anniversary card using a TSB image - it's been colored for a while and I thought it would be a perfect anniversary image.

I am entering this in several challenges:
Crazy 4 Challenges - the sketch
Critter Sketch Challenges - recipe challenge
Paper Sundaes - Sundae Bar - I used wings and gems


Supplies:
Image by TSB colored with Copics
SU cardstock Barely Banana, Bashful Blue, Certainly Celery
PTI sentiment Mega Mixed Messages
Misc flower and dew drops
Cuttlebug swirls embossing folder
DCWV DP

Hello!  I am typing this through lots of banging and clanging!  We are getting a new roof put on today, so it's pretty noisy here, but I am thankful none the less to get a new roof since ours was in pretty rough shape.

I made this card this other day - I always seem to be in need of birthday cards, especially cards for men!  I really like how this turned out too.  I love these colors.  And I finally got to use my new Cuttlebug birthday embossing folder:)


Supplies:
Image from TSB colored with Copics
Crystal Stickles
SU cardstock in Bashful Blue, Garden Green, Brilliant Blue
DCWV DP
Nesties Circles
Bella Dots
Cuttlebug embossing folder
Sentiment from PTI Mega Mixed Messages

Just a Quick Little Post

Hello!  I wanted to share this card I made a while back, but just haven't gotten around to posting.  I love this image from The Stamping Boutique - it's so unique!  My Sister-in-Law and her family actually live in the Ukraine, so this makes me think of them.  This card will actually be going to my niece for her birthday this summer:)

Hi!  I'm a little late getting this posted, but such is the story of my life lately, lol!  The Stamping Boutique had a "One Stop Hop" last weekend.  Participating designers anonymously had their card posted on the blog for everyone to vote on.  This was my card.  Sadly I did not win, but Kecia won with her fabulous card!

I used the image "Summer Laundry Line".  I love this image, and I really like all the yellows and oranges of this card - reminds me of the sunshine!

Relax and Enjoy!

Hellooooo out there!  It's been a while since I've posted anything.  Life has been a little crazy with STUFF and the end of school and whatnot.  I haven't had too much crafty time, but here is one card I made a couple of weeks ago.

This is a card technique I haven't used in a while - it's a Criss Cross card.  Neat, right?  I used the sassy Princess Jennifer Latte for this card from The Stamping Boutique.


Supplies:
PTI cardstock
DP by DCWV
Nesties
Image from TSB colored with Copics
Kaiser pearls
Sentiment from PTI
Coffee cup - ???
Crystal Stickles
