More to Share!

Here's a notepad & post-it note pad covered using more Sewn Together Digi Stamps for back to school:

I colored the Cammi the caterpillar more like a caterpillar than a worm like I thought it was at first... wow... The Halen the hair is colored in pink & the other in grey. Here's a few pictures from Tug Fest:
Illinois swept Iowa 11-0 two years in a row, the ladies even won their tug! First time my husband, daughter & I attended & what a fun time as you can see we had a good spot! Looks like we'll be making plans to attend next year too! The town, Port Byron consists of a population of 1600, small town.

Anyway a few more digi companies are looking for design team members so I hope to apply & become a designer soon! I'll post more samples of wedding cards I did soon! So come on back! Hope you have a great day!

A Day Off!!!

I have a couple days off for some time with my family. This gives me even more time to share some of my recent projects:

These are cards a made with scraps coloring in both Copics & Prismacolor Pencils. I used a smaller version of the Fred She Said Free Digi from a few weeks ago.

Next up is another Whipper Snapper sample from when I went to the Creative Pals store in Brookfield, Wisconsin prior to the Kiss concert my husband & I attended.

I hope to share more in the next couple of days, we are planning a day on Saturday to Tug Fest in Port Byron, Illinois. Until next time :)

Inky Sewn Together Design Team Call

I've decided to try my luck & try out for a design team. I found this new Digi company called Sewn Together & the stamps are just too cute. Since I create almost every day if not every other day I think this will put some of my talent to good use :) I'm so getting into digi stamps I thought this would also be fun! Here are 5 of my recent favorites:

Fred She Said girls...
Fred She Said Flower Pot

A larger version.

I really enjoyed coloring this one. It's from a few posts ago.

This one is from Sketching Stamper Digi Stamps, really a nice one to color. Here's a close up view:


And finally this would be a card made with a Sewn Together Freebie :) I used my copic markers, background paper from Grade School Pad & polka dotted ribbon. Oh and I also used a stamp from a new clear school set I purchased at Michaels yesterday as they didn't have the new MS punches I'm looking for yet so you can't let a 50% off coupon go...

Here's a close up view:

Here's a picture showing the little worm raised, too cute!

Wish me luck!

Some Like it Hot... Not Me!

It's another hot one here in the Midwest. Feeling like over 100 degrees today. I really don't like the heat, not that I couldn't use the loss of a few pounds I just don't like heat & humidity. Anyway as mentioned in my last post here's the card with the little box bag of candy:

I just used the same background paper to make the bag, the main colors are Lovely Lilac & Orchid Opulance :) Hope you like. Well if you live where I live keep cool! Until next time!

Good Morning!

I hope this post finds you having a great weekend! It was a bit yucky here yesterday but today it looks like sunshine & 79 degrees! Here are some samples of cards I did a while back:

This card was made using a digi image I had gotten off of Splitcoaststampers, isn't it beautiful?


Next up would be a Fred She Said image I purchased, same colors as the last card. This one too I think is beautiful :)

Finally today:

This is the card I made for the girls on my team at my "day job"... Each year I make them a card & some sort of matching candy gift. I'll post the box bag at another time as I have two left that haven't had their birthday's yet. Well that's it for today, if you have any questions leave me a comment or just drop me an e-mail! Have a great day!

Where Have I Been?

Busy, busy... I know who isn't? right? No excuse... Well here are some samples I hope you enjoy :)

A few weeks ago my DH & I went to a KISS concert, that's right KISS it was awesome :0
Well since it was in Milwaukee, Wisconsin (Summerfest) I asked if he'd take me to the stamp store Creative Pals in Brookfield they sell Whipper Snapper stamps (one of my favs) & he said "yes" he's been such a good sport lately with my addiction... I love him so :) Anyway I picked up this little baby called Hagen Daz Bear. The store is awesome & I wish I had more money to spend... This was a fun card to make. I'll share some more soon as I picked up another popular cutie & some cute sets as well. Have a great day!
