Dilly Beans, C.R.A.F.T., Digital Tuesday, and All That Scraps

Happy Friday!  I'm finally starting to feel like myself again, I was a hot mess this week!  I can hardly believe Easter is already here this weekend, either, can you?  Wasn't it just St. Patrick's Day?  For that matter, wasn't it just Christmas?  LOL

We have a fun new challenge for you at:


I love this zombie bunny image, I colored with Prismacolor pencils and mineral spirits and added White Fun Flock.  DP and ribbon are from SU!  I am entering this fun zombie Easter Bunny card into the:


C.R.A.F.T. Challenge - Easter/Spring

I have one more Easter card for you today, this one is for the:

I used Bunny Lucy, colored with Prismacolor markers, Prismacolor pencils, and mineral spirits.  I absolutely love this DP from My Mind's Eye.  I am addicted to their 6x6 paper pads.  *sigh*  Anyway - punches, ribbon, and flower brad are from Stampin' Up!
Peace.

Card Patterns & Wicked Wednesday

I was itching to play with one of these images again, I just love their unique-ness.  If you haven't noticed, I've also been having fun making up words.  LOL  Anyway, this is for the:


I used Petunia from the Wickidz line at Simply Betty - there's that cracked glass again, LOVE this stuff.  This picture shows the effect so much better than the first card I made.

Deadlines, deadlines...

Geez, it's really not like me to be cutting it so close to deadlines!  But this one closes in an hour, so posting quickly for the:


I used an image from A Day for Daisies and DP from My Mind's Eye - I love the colors and simplicity of this one.

I'm still not feeling 100% myself - gotta work today, though, so off to get ready!  Have a great day, friends.
Peace.

Crafts & Me & Simon Says Stamp

Good morning!  Busy day today - Cass and I are heading to her school to withdraw her so we can get her registered for the GED test. After much consideration, Jeremy and I have decided this is the best option for her, it will allow her to start college this Fall in California - a full year early.  And I think she's ready.  We'll most likely start her off in the Fall with 2 college classes, just to ease her into it.  But I'm confident she'll be fine.  This is just a scary, exciting, weird time - one minute I'm practically jumping out of my seat with anticipation and the next minute, I'm so nervous about everything working out.  I just have to have faith, that's it.  So I am trying really hard.  :)
 
So anyway - after work, we have to visit my mom and then go grocery shopping.  Hope you all have a great day - just one card to share today but I was happy with how this one came.  For the:

and


I used Bundle of Fairy Love from A Day for Daisies, colored on Kraft paper with Prismacolor pencils & mineral spirits.  Cardstock and glitter are from SU!  DP is from 7Gypsies and sentiment is from TLC.  Ribbon is from my stash.
Peace.

Beyond the Burtonesque & Pollycraft

See what I get for being sick yesterday, have to post twice today to get these in by the deadlines!  :)  So this first project is an altered photo album for the:

I used Lolita from Saturated Canary - she's cute AND gothic, but I gothed her up a bit more.  I used Gesso on the album then sprayed with Jet Black Smooch Spritz and purple Glimmer Mist.

And then I also made this card for the:


I used S&S Bench from Pollycraft, colored with Prismacolor markers.  My DP is a very old one from SU! - before they even started making double-sided papers!  The kids are eating chocolate ice cream - something I am soooo looking forward to.  :)  Have a great night, peeps. See you back here tomorrow.
Peace.

Good morning, friends.  Feeling a bit better today after sleeping for 11 hours last night - PHEW.  Thanks for all of your kind words, I appreciate them.  :)

Since I was completely useless yesterday, I'm off to spend the day at my craft table to hopefully get everything done that I need to for this week!  For now, just posting for the:
 
I used Lollipop Girl, printed on Kraft cardstock and paper-pieced her dress.  MY DP and ribbon are in Kraft from SU!
Peace.
