...cherry pie...

hey everyone! I managed to get a non DT card done today!! I wanted to play in the MFT sketch so i pulled out a card kit i had.

I coloured the girl with copics and used a spic glitter pen on her ruffles and head band. I then cut her out with a nestie.

The papers are PTI white, kraft, poppy parade by SU and the dsp was in the kit.

I used a SU border punch and the ribbon and utensils came from the kit. The sentiment is from Teeny Tiny Wishes by SU.

Thanks for stopping by...its a crappy day out...and i am headed to work!!

HUGS!

...pull me under, i'm not afraid...

Hey everyone:) I have been getting some cute Valentine's card kits and it seems every challenge blog has a love/valentines them...so here is a lovely card for ya! I don't do Valentine's Day so i have been giving these out for people to give to their loved ones:)


Now this kit was jam packed with so much stuff! I could make 10 cards from this kit! So i think i will have to save some for next year... I can only do one at a time of these lovey cards! lol

The image is from MFT and i coloured her with copics and cut her out with a nestie. I then placed her on the red card stock that was in the kit, it was embossed with the hearts cuttlebug folder.

All the papers are from PTI i believe. The hearts, twine and borders were also in the kit, and so was the felt border. Oh and the bling was also in the kit! I tell ya there is so much in this kit! ha ha

Hey:) I wanted to pull out a stamp i haven't used in a long time (if ever!) and for some reason i never use my MFT stamps...so i pulled out this birthday set.

I stamped the image with memento black and used my copics to colour, i also used the spica glitter pen on the candles. I then cut it out and placed it on a nestie.

My papers are PTI white, Chocolate Chip and the dsp is from my stash. I am trying to go through my scrap pile and use some of it up!








My ribbon is from SU, flowers are primas and there is a bella dot in the center.

I am entering this for The Simon Says Challenge blog:) 3 Embelishments, 2 papers and one image.

...i get the shakes when i am near you...

Hey everyone! Its a day off! woo hoo!! I have a few goals today...#1 make 3 Xmas cards (i only have 3 kits left for Xmas!), #2 learn at least 5 80's songs on bass (i have some exciting news to share later on about this) and #3 sleep...i am sooooooo tired!! lol

Ok so i started with the easiest thing and that is the xmas cards. So far i have this one! I have been dying to use this kit for a while now. I love the MFT image!

My paper is PTI white, baja breeze and the dsp is from the kit.






I coloured the image with copics and cut it out with a nestie.

I finished off my card with some ric rac and a martha stewart snowflake with a bella dot in the middle.

I wasn't sure if i would like this card, but i think it turned out pretty cute:)

Hope you are having a productive day too!!

...pink is like red but not quite....

Yes another WCMD card:) i had to do this challenge because Joanne was hosting it!! :) the theme was pink and black...yummy...

I picked this image because i had it in my stash of images to colour (the box is heaping full, i should start using some of them! lol).

I coloured the ladies with copics and a spica glitter pen. I then cut it out and layered it on Pretty in Pink, the Dsp (which i have no idea what company it is), and then basic black.

I punched out the sentiment with my scallop oval punch and layered it on a black oval. I used my Gelly roll pen for the dots.

I finished off the card with some black bling and some pink and black ribbon.

...little fighter....DAY #3 of 80's TRIVIA!

I was going through my coloured images (i have a lot, i love to colour!) and i came across this cutie from MFT! Dana had stamped these for me and i haven't even used them yet!!

I thought it would fit perfect with the Sweet Sunday Challenge! I coloured the little mouse with copics and cut him out with nesties.

All my papers are from my scrap bin. My base is PTI white with basic grey and then some pink flamingo dsp from SU and a piece of My Minds Eye orange paper.

The ribbon is from my stash, its all i had left! Yikes!




I finished off the card with some primas with a bella dot in the center!

Sunday Challenge....

The challenge this week on the Corrosive Challenge blog is Back to School! I had no idea what i was going to do because really i don't have kids so i don't buy school kind of stamps.

So when i saw on my friend Karen's blog she did a back to school with this MFT stamp i thought hey i could use that!!

I think my card would be more for someone going off to college (like my niece!!) rather than a little kid though.

So i started by colouring most of the image with copics and then i paper pieced the dress. I cut it out with scissors and really its crooked so i didn't mat it like normal, that way you can't tell! hee hee

The sketch is from SCS, it was an easy one so i went with it.

Everything on this card is from Taylors Key Ingredients Kit from July. Really i say this all the time her kits are amazing and great if you are in a hurry and don't want to pick out papers!!

I finished off the card with some ribbon from the kit and the sentiment is from the MFT set.

Well i hope you like it! Be sure to check out the last week of my DT!! Next challenge we will start will a new batch!! :)

Also today is my nephew Michael's 20th bday! This is a picture of us from my bday this year with his GF Christina and my dad looking at us like we are nuts! lol

HAPPY BDAY BRAT:)

HUGS!

Monday sketch!!!

Ok so its the sketch from last Monday but at least i got it done!! lol

I made this card for a MFT swap i am in. I finally inked up this set! I love it and was dying to use it for so long, that is why i signed up for the swap so i would force myself to use it! lol

I decided to use some old SU paper for this one, i only had a couple peices left so i thought i would use it up! Its called Rainbow Sherbert, the colours are so cheery and bright! Apricot Appeal, Green Galore, Gable Green and Tempting Turquoise.

I coloured with copics, and used my new Ek Sucess punch on the bottom. I finished it off with a prima flower with some bling in the middle. I think i have bling in every colour ;)

I used the sentiment from Bitty Birthday because it was small enough to fit at the bottom.

Today i am off to Bellaland to stamp with the gang! I am so excited you have no idea! I also have a Dr's Appt. so wish me luck with that!

Have a good Monday!

HUGS!

Making Christmas Cards:)

This was the last card i made at Karens! The layout is a Karen original!! Isn't it great???

So for this card i used My Minds Eye Snow Funflakes paper. The base is PTI layers with kiwi Kiss. I put a peice of Baja Breeze through the snowflakes Cuttlebug folder for the botton. I tied some white polka dot ribbon with a layer of Lake ribbon (from the paper source) and tied it up.

I coloured the scarf, legs, snow and snowman nose with copics. The rest is paper peiced! (i know WWKD!!).

I cut out the matching paper with a nestie and just cut the image free hand.

The snowman was coloured with a gelly roll pen and then fun flocked on top:) Fun flock sure is fun!! I love the effect it has too! I used some Liquid Applicate for the boots and the bottom of the coat:)

I finished off the card with the martha stewart snowflake punch with a bella dot on top. I also used some smaller bella dots as well. This was my first attempt at a banner...Karen's are much better!! I will get it with practice:)

Well that is all my cards from Karen's!! It was a lot of fun for sure!! :) Now lets see how i do at taking pictures!!

HUGS!
