Fishin' You a Great Day!

  I used a technique that I'm sure you all have seen but I'm going to share anyway!  Maybe someone hasn't seen it yet - It's Out of the Box technique and there's a tutorial by one of my fav's - Beate Johns here .  I thought it was difficult and now - piece of cake - I only did the end of the pole and the end of the fishing line - very small but I think it makes a difference.  I used my nestie on this new image "boy fishes" which you can find by linking on the hyper link on the side of this blog for the store!  Jehanne has so many great images and continues to constantly be coming up with more - Wow!!  I used my copics to color and a MS Stamp on the bottom and the tags are Stampin Up!  I do hope you like this guy and if you follow my blog -- you'll see I've been on a male card and Christmas card quest!  So...another boy card for me!!  Tee Hee!  Now - give it a go - check out our challenge from last weekend - it'll run 2 weeks and you could win some images!  Check out the store and show me what you do....would love to see it!

God endures

I love TEDDY BO!  I don't use them too often - I'm not sure why not - I'm such a creature of habit!  I want to get some more of them - I have 3 I believe!  Anyway, I decided to participate in their challenge this week - Alter Something!  I was cleaning out a drawer after I saw the challenge (the checks, misc stuff) and was throwing out the old empty boxes (consolidating) and it hit me - this would make a great card/box for a gift!  So....I had this frame from my Imagine (which is collecting dust!) and took the box apart - covered it with designer paper and glued it back together - it's a great size for so many things and we all get those check boxes!  Hope this inspires you to give it a go!

Another Red, White Blue w/Ribbon Recipe

Well, this was a really fun card to make - I used a red/white and blue combo with a birthday celebration theme......I love this "ticket".  Well, I love tickets period!!!  I tried to make it colorful without taking away from the red, white and blue.  I sewed down the middle of my ribbon to tie it in!  Just a quick post because Blogger wasn't cooperating last night and gotta head off to work!  This is one of the cutest "Bugaboo".  I love the challenge Catch the Bug Challenge.

Wish

Is this little one the cutest image or what??  I love Karen's Doodles - she's got the best images!  First of all - go check 'em out here .  He's just adorable - I decided to use him for this challenge for a number of reasons!  He is one of the digis I printed and had in my stash, hence he's in my arsenal in the hospital room.  A bit limited but it's great because I've got so many printed!  I used scraps for the mats and cut the punched label in half with brads!  The Karen's Doodles Challenge Blog is "FRAME IT"  I thought I'd frame it in a couple ways - with a matting, and I pierced the mat - that's a double frame in my opinion - LOL!  I used a flourish and a ticket and done!  I love how my coloring came out - Maybe my daughter is right - I must like blue and green best - I noticed I have a tendency to use it a bunch!!

Friendship

I believe the ingredients to friendship can be as basic as "Live, Love and Laugh!"  It cures all!  LOL - well, maybe not all...but I have a bestie that I haven't fought with since I was 10.  Ok - not a counting person but that's over 40 years - Yikes I'm getting old!  Anyway -I love this image from Mo's Digital Pencil.  They have uber terrific images - I'm new to them.  I purchase one for  a fund raiser and have totally fallen in love!  So, go check them out and check out their challenges at Mo's Digital Challenge.  Go check 'em out!  They are just adorable!  I'm in love!!

Anything is Possible with Just Some Lines

Well, today is my day to be at the helm for Just Some Lines Blog

I decided I would use Jehanne's garden catepillar.  I think she's too cute!  Well, she has little flowers so I'm assuming she's a girl and so I made her with pinks!  I decided to use my 

Anything is Possible image from Bugaboo - I think it's perfect because I envision this catepillar as having some issues getting around!?!?!  Tee Hee!  Now - head on over to Just Some Lines Images.  There are even some freebies to get you started.  The images are reasonably priced - so come on - go get one and have fun!

My first Lori Designs!

This is my first Lori Boyd digis and design challenge.  I like her images and found her through Sparkle Smith.  I really like Sparkles stamps and she always does Lori Boyd challenges - so I thought I'd give it a try!  I bout this little girl with her dolly!  I put the little dolly on top of the ribbon and border I cut with my EK Success punch.  The mats are scraps and I cut the sentiment and the corner with my Stampin Up label punch.  My little girl is colored with Copics and Sakura pens and her necklace is silver pearls glued on.  I so think she came out great- I hope you enjoy stopping by!

I don't do Mornings!

Anyone who knows me - knows - I don't do mornings!  I'm such a night owl -typical night last night 2am.  I got to sleep in today - decided it was going to be my - "I ain't getting up for nothing mornings"!  So, I got up at 10am - even staying up late - I don't normally do that - Friday I went to bed at 2 am and got up at 8am!  Anyway- on to the card - I so love this image because I so resemble her!  This stamp is available at All That Scraps and this is specifically for her challenge at Wednesday's Challenge.  Head on over there and check out her stuff!  You'll be hooked right away!  Her challenges are a lot of fun also - different!  This week was "use felt"  At first I went, WHAT!  and then thought I can do this!  I cut some felt flowers and leaves with my nestabilities dies and the border is a felt border I won here!!!!  Yay me!  Anyway- I had fun and thank you for keeping it interesting and different!
