Happy Spring Day

Hello everyone! Well today is a fun card that I am using a new stamp that my sweet friend got for me on my birthday (thanks Cindy!).

I colored my image with the copics after stamping with momento tuxedo black. Once again, this is what I find works best with my copics. The designer prints are from a DCWV pack that is full of wonderful spring colors, flowers, bugs and daisies. The name is something like that too! :) The little flower is an MM grommet that I got the pack for 99c at Mike's the other day- I think they are clearancing them out. The sentiment goes in there but I wasn't sure which one to use yet so for now it is the background print.



Challenges:

ABC Challenge: Spring is in bloom

All sorts Challenge: Spring is in the air

Little Paper Shop: sketch



So that is it- take care and hope to see you again!

Smilin' Donkey

I had made this little card for a challenge that I missed out on, oops! But I wanted to share it with you anyways! The image is an Alota stamp that Michelle O sent to me- as you know her she is the Donkey Lady! I just love reading her posts on Saturday with the pictures of the donkeys.

I colored the little donkey with my copics and the DP is from the newest hostess designer paper pack and matched it up with some bue cardstock which I stuck in the embosser and wha la! I had to use that sentiment because it was the first thing that I could think of! It just makes me smile. Simple, quick and fun!

Have a FAB day! I have to head out for meetings today so I had to get dressed too! Yikes......

These are busy B's!!!!

Happy Black Friday! I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving! I had a great day, except hubby went to the football game so we were not together! But I ate so much turkey, dressing and pot/gravy- sooooooo much and it was absolutely yummy! Today I was up and out the door at 4:30am with my oldest son and we were home around 12 noon. I only got a couple of things that I needed to get though, others were sold out! Ugh, which means 4 more weeks of looking for it.
Today's card is a wonderful Alota rubber stamp and I just love these bees. They are working so hard (well most of them) to prepare this tree for the most wonderful holiday tree ever. I really did keep it simple in that I used garden green on the card, layered it on real red and that is about it. I did use liquid applique on the popcorn and it is adorable how it pops up just a bit. The ribbon was another $1 bin ribbon at Mike's! Love how it works.
I am off to have leftovers today- have a Blessed Weekend!

So this weekend I went to the Stamp Convention and boy, did I have fun or what. I got to go to Marco paper and they had a great deal on nesties so I got myself another set of them. I bought the round and ovals but will share with my friend (hey Jen!) I also got some other fun stuff to use on my cards, I only bought 1, yep that is one, stamp and it is a sentiment that I love.
This card is made with images from my new friend and alota stamp design team Shary. I love this image and love these cards. The DP is from one of my DCWV packs and the sentiment is from one of my SU sets.
I am going to try and post again on Thursday ladies and then I am off to Mexico. I am not going to have access so I won't post anything until I return after the 30th. I will miss posting but definately need this little vacation. I am going with my family (hubby and sons), the inlaws, and my mother! Should be a good time, great weather and lots of relaxation.
