Friday :)

Friday already - this week flew by. Yesterday we got a little bit of (much-needed) rain, it was the perfect day to make a nice beef stew - yum.  It'll be even better today, you know how that is.  I've got to get my card page on Facebook up and running, I'm hoping to get to that today.  So let's get to the cards -  first up is my card for the new challenge we have for you at:


I am also entering this into the:

Stamp N Doodle Challenge: Easter or Spring

I used #164 - Zombie Bunny, colored with Prismacolor pencils & mineral spirits.  I love using my huge stash of Halloween papers for other stuff - I added a little ribbon tag, a flat-backed GlowSkull and I did the sentiment with my Dymo Caption Maker.  Come play along with us!

Next creation is a little bookmark/tag I made for the:


I used alcohol inks with Distressing Solution for the background, then stamped the sentiment on it, and then the image (Peace Anya) off the edge of the tag.  I added Stickles to her flowers and I added some fun peace sign brads and a ribbon.

I used Megan's simply ADORABLE newest Dilly Beans digi stamp, #556 - Maisie Mermaid, colored with Prismacolor pencils & mineral spirits and lots of Stickles.  This paper is some really old stuff from Stampin' Up!

And last for today is my card for the:

I used Spider Girl from A Day for Daisies, colored with Prismacolor pencils & mineral spirits.  I added Dazzling Diamonds glitter to her eyelids, and Gunmetal Stickles on her eyelashes.  I used some DP with spiders all over it, along with a spider web die cut and a matching spider die cut.  I was quite pleased with how this one came out, I love when that happens.  :)  Have a great day, friends.  Peace.

Sporty Girls & Green

Happy Wednesday!  I crafted like a maniac yesterday, it felt sooooo good.  I got a bunch of stuff finished and other stuff started - and I think today will be a little more of the same.  I get so much more done when I have the house to myself.  Time for a new challenge at:

Caution: Student Driver

Good morning!  I made the following card for a teenager who just got his learner's permit, and I'm entering it into the following challenges:



I used a "bug" image (the letter B) from Melonheadz, colored with Prismacolor pencils & mineral spirits, along with some digi paper and a little caution sign I found online.  I dragged the edges of everything through a dark gray ink pad to give it a "run-over" look.  LOL  Have a great day, everyone!  Peace.

Whimsy Stamps & Sentimental Sundays

Hi there!  Busy day today - gotta go do the grocery shopping and lots of errands.  I desperately need a new pair of sneakers, so that's on my list today too.  And I've totally been craving a big, colorful fruit salad - so I think I'll go to the Produce Market, too.  I wish my girl was here to go with me, it's kind of boring doing this stuff alone!  LOL  About 6 more weeks, and she'll be home.  :)  I miss her SO DARN MUCH!

Today's card is for the:

and

I used Tyalisha, she's from the Lia Stampz line at Whimsy Stamps, colored with Prismacolor pencils & mineral spirits and a bit of marker.  I misted with some pink Glimmer Mist and attached the image panel with foam dimensional dots.  The "Patience is a virtue" sentiment is a sticker, and I cut a strip of the reverse side of the DP and applied it to that.  Ribbon with the stitching on it is from my stash.  Peace.
