Wow, it's Monday again...

Good Morning! Thanks for stopping by! Today I'm sharing a card I made for Pear Tree Designs challenge, it's a sketch challenge & The Character Cafe is the sponsor! Here's the sketch:

My card using the oh so cute image called Candle Quinn:

A closer look:

I liked this sketch, simple yet you had to put thought into it. I used one of my latest Cuttlebug folders for both the circle & the pink strip in the middle. The cupcake brads are from Walmart & the sentiment is from a Hero Arts set. Well hope you like it & it inspires you to join in on the challenge, have a great day!

Where did the weekend go???

Boy this sure was a "fast" weekend, wasn't it? Just seemed to fly by for me.... I did get a few stamping projects done this weekend so I guess it's not so bad :) We did go to the White Sox game on Friday & the seats we had were awesome, best seats we've ever had and the White Sox won! Well anyway enough of that, today I'd like to share a tag I made for a girl at work for her brother's upcoming baby shower, well not his so to speak but his girlfriends... I guess there's a new kind of shower now where you don't wrap the gifts & they are on show for all to see. Therefore she was looking to put a cute tag on it so this is what I came up with:

The inside:

I haven't done one of these little bib tags in awhile so it took a bit of time to get it right, hopefully she'll like it... What do you think? Well I did get some more done to share this week so stop on back! Thanks for stopping by!

The Character Cafe Challenge Friday

Good Morning Everyone! So glad you came by today! I kind of decided to take an unexpected break this past week from blogging so that's why the posts have been scarce, but now I'm back & have a great The Character Cafe challenge to share today.

A close up:

This challenge is to make a "round" card & for this one I used the largest Spellbinders Circle Nestabilities, Copic Markers & the oh so cute image called Froggin' Frederik, isn't his face too cute? Fun to color too! Be sure to head on over to the challenge blog to see what the other DT members came up with for this challenge & to join to win some great prizes, good luck!

Oh, guess where I'll be tonight? Another Chicago White Sox game, the first place White Sox that is & my DH scored box seat tickets too! Let's hope it doesn't rain :) Hope to be back here again this weekend if not hope you have a great one!

Happy Friday!

Hi all! So glad you came by today. It's really super hot & raining here in the Midwest, it's so humid my hair doesn't stand a chance... Well I tried to post this yesterday but unfortunately I was missing a small part of the challenge & well you know it wouldn't be a challenge if you didn't do it correctly... hmmm... anyway, this week I joined in on the Sketch Saturday challenge & will have mine in just in the nick of time :)

First here's the sketch:
Here's my sample:

A closer look:

For this one I used one of my cards from Joann's packages, it's 51/2 x 51/2, I used a new Sizzix folder from Tim Holtz & the other is a Cuttlebug folder called Distress Stripes, the image is a Character Cafe image called Chip isn't it too cute? The nestabilities is the petite scallop circle too.

I hope everyone has a great weekend! I'm sure mine will be busy as usual! I'm still contemplating CHA since it' s in the area... Thanks for coming by!

Hi there & happy hump day! So glad it's the middle of the week only one more day for me this week, I have Friday off :) Today I'm sharing another card for yet another challenge (told you I was busy this weekend):

A closer look:

A bonus card:

A close up of the bonus card:

The image is from here, isn't it super cute? Just reminds me of summer. My entry card is for this week's Teddy Stampers As you Wish with a twist challenge. I used two side panels using one of my favorite MS punch & 4 glitter brads. Oh & I can't forget my bonus card, that too is made using the cute image & this one has 4 brads as well.

Thanks for coming by today!

Sketch for You to Try Challenge

Good morning & happy Tuesday to you, so glad you stopped by today! I'm sharing my first ever entry in the Sketch for You to Try Challenge over at i{heart}2stamp, since it's a sketch & it's sponsored by Wild Flower Patch I had to give it a try. I've had this oh so cute image all colored up & thought it would be perfect for this sketch. First here's the sketch:

Here's my sample using the digi called Batter Up Sage from the Wild Flower Patch:

WFWC #23 Card

Good Morning & yes happy Monday... Today I'm sharing my entry into the Wild Flower Wednesday Challenge or WFWC #23, it's a sketch challenge which if you haven't hear before I love sketch challenges, such a great way to come up with all the aspects of the card without having to figure out how it should look on the card, here's my card:

A closer look:

For this one I used the freebie image given away a few months back, it's such a nice bowl of flowers, isn't it? I'm working on my copic coloring lately & this image was great for doing just that.

Thanks for coming by today, I'd so appreciate it if you found the time to leave a comment & let me know what you think.

Tomorrow I'll share what I came up with for my entry to the Sketch For You to Try challenge, the winner gets Wild Flower Digi stamps which I cannot seem to get enough of. Hope you have a great day!
