Spring Greens!

Patties Little Ballerina is just way too adorable!  This is the epitome of LOVE!  This makes me think of my little girl when she gets ready for dance!!  She's not so little any more!  Well, this week at Pattie's Creations is the LOVE/VALENTINE Challenge!

Whiff of joy is our yummy yummy sponsor this week at Crafty Creations Challenge Blog!  And...they are offering this wonderful rubber stamp!

Enough about all that - our challenge this week is "Valentines!"  I would think it would be obvious - but it could've been Red, Mice, etc.  But nope - It's Valentines!  Show us the lover in you!!  We wanna see your Valentine's cards!! Remember you have a week to get 'er done!  So don't wait, don't hesitate - get started!  Oh - go check out the design team - they really rocked the house!!    and....

Rainbow

This was a quickie but a fun card!  This is my first "challenge" at Whimsy Stamps!  They have the best stuff in that store!  You really should check them out at Whimsy Stamps!  Anyway, there's a new release this month and this is from:

Is that the cutest image or what??  You really should go check out what Lia has been up to - she's got just oodles of new stuff!  I know I'm having a blast!  I used my diamond glaze to sparkle up the rain and the boots and the spots on the umbrella!  I fussy cut my frog and added some rainbow colors to the sentiment - by the way - you get the sentiments along with the frog!  Yowzer!  What a deal for only $2!!  Now get on over to the Whimsy Store and check 'em out!!

Celebrate

I so had fun with this one!  This week at Lollipop Crafts....the challenge is "recycle".  I always use pop tops, beer caps, ribbons - this time - I thought I'd change it up a bit and use a charm from my daughter's necklace that she broke - I'll be honest - it's been sitting in my craft room for over a year!  I just didn't have the heart to throw it away.  Well, today I'm glad I didn't throw it away!  I had the pop top out but then saw the charm!  It was the aha moment!  So...I made my little cat from my Cricut and Create a Critter - the face of course is from Peachy Keen stamps (medium critters) and the border from Fiskars!  I am happy with it - now run over to Lollipop Crafts and check out what's being recycled!  The design team is totally rockin' it this week (and every week actually - LOL)!!

Wow!!  Can you believe it???  It's that time again - another new release from Digital Delights.  It's a whole set of farm guys, animals, paper and sentiments!  You've just gotta check 'em out!  I made a "side stepper card".  I thought it would be easier and more fun to display all the elements that way!  I used the farm paper on the long section behind Petey and I cut a fence from my Cricut cart - Paper Doll Dress Up!  The grass is from fiskars punch and the letters DCWV.  Too fun!  I hope you'll go over and check out the new releases and check out what freebie we may have!  Now come on and join us and go over and check out the mojo going on - Delightful Challenges.

This is a white lunch bag that was in my stash I took to the hospital - I've overloaded on cards and thought I'd use the bag - I normally like to make them but thought i'd use the white lunch bag!  I cut a square with the scraps from one of the other projects and had the BRF bring in the letter stickers from home - well, these are rubons!  I had to add a tag - i'm in that mode (and I have them in the hospital stash, LOL)  Boy, I'm so ready to be home with my baby!  I was not sure when I first started this but love the color combo!  Well TTFN!

Well, Phindy's Place Challenge is all about the sketch!  I like sketch challenges but have not been doing them!  So....I love Phindy's images - I decided to use this little Pie girl (never remember their names) for the challenge!  You can find her at Phindy's Place.  She's always got such a variety and always a "Surprise" for you!  You need to go to her store and check out the "random surprise" link!  Anyway, I used my Fiskars around the page punch and Petaloo flowers for this simple yet loving it sketch! Hey - just notice - No dp!  Wow - I don't usually do that!  I'll be looking for some other challenges for that - LOL!

Happy Birthday Dude!

Well, I was sitting here ready to post this card and I thought - I love these images!  They are my fav.....then it hit me - Everything is my favorite!  What's up with that?  I just started using these digis more and more - I've had a couple for a while but been buying them!  The challenge this week at Some Odd Girl was to use a scene!  Well, I always use my bugs when it's scene or something background-ish!  So, I decided to hit the Fantabulous Cricut Challenge also.  I used my Celebrate with Flourish cartridge.  The grass is the good ole Fiskars grass punch!  Can you say PUNCHAHOLIC?  Anyway - that's it -- simple -- but i'm liking it!

Give a Hoot!

 

I so love my CRICUT!  I am trying to use it at least once or twice a week for cards!  This is the silouhette from Give a Hoot cart.  I bought it from a friend and I've not used it much- it was one I wanted but now that I am actually using it - it's awesome - the leaves are from there and from my Stampin Up bird punch!  I used my Fiskars punch also!  Remember - I'm a punchaholic!!  i used a couple of rhinestones to be the "stopper" for this easel card!  I do hope you like it - It's simple and I wasn't sure of a sentiment - so....it didn't get one_ So There!  Ha! Ha!

Yet another box?!?!?

Well, I'm back - my laptop was giving me grief and I refused to go to one of the other 3 computers - told the BF fix it!!  He's an attorney but a guru on the computer!!  Anyway - on to the card/box - well - I decided winter represents and means the holidays - especially Christmas!  Hey - this young lady is usually siting on a chimney - i changed her to be sitting on a present!!  She's shouting to everyone wishing them holiday cheer!!  Fun stuff - I've been on a roll - my daughter needed boxes/gifts for her teachers (5 of them) so I thought - a small costume jewelry wrapped in a cute box!!  As you can see on the side - I used the fiskars again - I think it gives such a great touch.  I colored her with my copics, a little glitter glue and she's done - stuff it with tissue and a bracelet and she's off to school.  Again, thanks for your patience - I was MIA for a day or so.    (plus so incredibly busy)

Too Cute for Words!

The innocence in this face is too precious for words!!  This was supposed to be a sketch/color and anything but a card - but I ran with a card.  So....it's all good - I'll do another "something" with the digi.  I just love the details in this digi - too fun!!  I also used the sketch for a couple challenges - Thanks ladies for keeping me hopping!!!
