To my mamacita

 I recently discovered this stamp company called Visible Image and I absolutely love their stamps for mixed media projects, but they also work well for cards!  This one is called Total Chaos.  The sentiment stamps/dies are from Simon Says Stamp.

I'd like to enter this into the following challenges:

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Use Die Cuts

The Sisterhood of Crafters: All About the Ladies

The Paper Funday Challenge: Anything Goes/Flower Shoppe


My background paper was created with alcohol inks, one of my favorite techniques.  I stamped directly on the background and then added the "mamacita" sentiment/die with some pop-up dots.  Peace.

Nature is Magical

 It's a rainy and dreary day here in central Massachusetts, I just got back from taking my 3 adorable granddaughters and my daughter to lunch.  I always have so much fun with them.

Sending You Oceans of Love

This adorable image was a freebie from Sweet November Stamps - I colored her with markers and then used some Lindy's Magicals for the background behind her and the background paper.  Peace.
