Aurora Wings

Good morning! It's so nice to wake up to blue skies... but it's even nicer knowing that it's just going to get warmer and warmer every day.  I love Spring, but Summer is my favorite.  I just cannot wait to soak up the sun.  For now, here's a card I made for the:

Aurora Wings Facebook Challenge: Birthday/Birthday Sentiment

Aurora Wings Challenge#1: Anything Goes

I used Sisterhood from Aurora Wings, colored with Prismacolor markers, pencils, and mineral spirits.  I added Stickles and white Fun Flock... added a feather to finish it off.  Papers are from MME. Peace.

Crazy Craniums & Dragonfly Fairy

Good morning!  Blue skies and sunshine greeted me when I woke up, so I'm having my coffee and getting my computer stuff done and then I am getting out of here for the day!  My poor little kitty had a big, fat tick on him yesterday - so you know it's Spring.  Ick, I hate those things.  Today we have a new challenge for you at:

Wicked Wednesday ATC Challenge: Crazy Craniums

We're being sponsored by Smeared Ink, and I'm also entering these into the:

I was the lucky winner of the One Sweet Challenge last month, which is the challenge blog for Sweet Pea Stamps (which I am a sucker for!) - so I was thrilled to be able to choose a few new images to play with.  I decided to play along again with one of them for the:

One Sweet Challenge:  Ringing in Spring

I would like to enter this into the following challenges:

Papertake Weekly: Spring

The Corrosive Challenge: Show us your Metal

I colored Dragonfly Fairy with Prismacolor pencils & mineral spirits and added Stickles to all of the wings.  I used more Stickles on the dragonfly brad, and added some clear gemstone stickers.  Papers are from Authentique.  Peace. 

Happy Birthday

Hello friends - woke up to a rainy morning, which dampened (ha ha - get it?) my spirits and helped me to decide it was a good day to stay in and see how many projects I can get made instead of heading out to do some shopping.  I like to shop in the sunshine, so hopefully the sun will cooperate with my plans tomorrow morning.  :)

For now, here's a card I made for the:

DigiStampBoutique April Challenge

and

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Happy Birthday

This sweet DSB image is called Birthday Zoe, and I colored her with Prismacolor markers, pencils, and mineral spirits.  Added lots of Stickles, a few ribbons from my stash, and a button from Stampin' Up!  Papers are from doodlebug designs inc.  Peace.

Sometimes you just need a friend...

Happy Monday!  I stumbled across the cutest image on one of my fellow DT member's blogs yesterday, her name is Lisa and you can check out her blog here.  Anyway,  the image is from Doodle Pantry and is called Charlie Daisy, and I was so inspired that I decided to buy the same image and link up to the:

Skullduggery

Hello friends -most of you know that my favorite cards/projects to make are Halloween/creepy ones.  But I haven't had many opportunities to play with my skulls and spiders and such.... so I decided to play along this week with the Minions at:

Haunted Design House #185: Skullduggery

I used a skull I found by Googling "free skull coloring pages" and fussy-cut it to fit on my 5.25 square card.  I colored with Prismacolor markers and glitter, and added some red gemstone stickers.  Sentiment is from Kraftin' Kimmie.  Peace.
