Mad About Markers at Crafting When We Can

Good morning! And happy Sunday! Last weekend my hubby and I suffered from that awful stomach bug. Night before last he started feeling it again!! Yesterday I spent the time bleaching everything!! I scrubbed the bathroom, door knobs, light fixtures, where we touch the tv to turn it, the remote controls, mice LOL You name it ... anything I could think of I wiped down with bleach. I also bought some hand sanitizer to go on top of our regular soap washing..  I'm a big soap and water hand washer.. I work in the health industry.. makes sense ;) I stripped the bed again and washed it and the towels. LOL So there you have it... I've cleaned and cleaned. He didn't get anything full on, so I'm happy about that. Now.. on to our challenge :) Have a great rest of your weekend everyone!

Today is Challenge #46 at Crafting When We Can. Our wonderful sponsor for this challenge is Lacy Sunshine. The theme for this challenge is Mad About Markers. So get your markers out, Copic, Spectrum Noir, whatever you use and start coloring!


I used my copic markers on the wonderful Olivia Otter from Lacy Sunshine. I also used two different shades of green gems from my stash, a rhinestone swirl, ribbon, buttons and twine. I punched a scalloped circle which I added my sentiment to, Your Otter This World. I used brown and green cardstock from my stash. I embossed the brown with dots. The patterned papers are from Animal Crackers Matstack from DCWV. And I think that is it. I love all the papers in that matstack.

Extra Texture at Tammy's Scrapin Corner

Happy Monday everyone. Yesterday Kevin got sick again with that awful stomach flu. I can't disinfect any more than I have, so I'm not sure what else to do. This is the second time he has had it and it is just awful. I'm glad it is only a 24 hour bug, but that doesn't help when you are going through it. So that was my Sunday... trying to take care of him as best I can. Although... Like me he doesn't want to be messed with so there isn't much you can do LOL That was it.. and I had to finish this card, so I worked on that.

Here is my card for Challenge #65: Extra Texture over at Tammy's Scrapin Corner this week:


The image is Little Boy from QKR Stampede. I love cute boy images with frogs and bugs !! LOL  I colored the image with Copic. The additional bugs and frog and that strip of jean are all stickers. The big frog at the bottom is a SandyLion Sticker from Little Boys Sticker Sheet. The jean strip, jar with the lightning bug and the strip of frogs on the inside are also from SandyLion and its from Little Boys Border Sheet. The bigger bug in the upper corner and all the little bugs are from Provo Craft - Meadow. I decoupaged some of the image.. the frog, front arm and slingshot. I popped a lot of the stickers. The extra texture came from the Jim Holtz Sizzix Embossing Folder. I added some chalk and used a brown Copic Multiliner to add detail to the brick embossing. I distressed the edges of the papers. The papers are all random papers from my stash... The green splat paper is Doodlebug, the green dragonfly paper is Bo Bunny and the boy words paper is Fundamentals. I created the sentiment which I put on the inside.

Copic:
Skin: E000, E00, E01, E11, R20, R22
Hair: Y21, Y23, YR21, Y38, E97, E99
Wood: E34, E35, E37

Anything Goes @ One Stitch At A Time

Good morning everyone!! I can't believe it is Sunday already. This weekend has just flown by. Where has it gone. Yesterday I upgraded my cell phone and got the Samsung Galaxy 4. I have been using the Galaxy 2. I gave the 2 to Kevin... he had been using my first one LOL, the original. He gets my hand me downs. LOL It worked out really well though! Last week my phone started acting all weird. It was getting all hung up and I had to pull the battery out of it every time I did a couple of things. So, I took it back to Best Buy where I had the warranty. They sent a new phone to us, so Kevin has a new phone too. After that we went and saw a movie, Now You See Me. The kids went to see it on Friday since they did a great job getting their things done this week.

This week at One Stitch At A Time we have Anything Goes. I had some awesome digital papers to use from Panda Bear Designs - Doodle Boys Paper Pack. All of the papers are from this digital pack except for the black base card and the one strip of black that I embossed. They are all really great papers to use for a masculine card and I love how it turned out!! Here is my card:


Great papers aren't they? The brown background is one and for each banner I used different papers. I used those same papers on the inside too.  I colored the image with Copic. I inked around the sentiment with Tea Dye Distress Ink. I added a little bit of glitter. I popped/decoupaged parts of the images and I embossed the strip of black on the front with a Spellbinders embossing folder. The images were hand drawn by my wonderful husband. I took them and tubed them, made the lines darker in Paint Shop and there you have it. The sentiment was made by me.

My May DT Day At Meljens Designs

Hi everyone!! Today is my May DT Day at Meljens Designs. This month the theme is Inspiration. I thought about it a bit and thought.. You know what my inspiration is each day??  Jesus, Prayer, My Savior, My faith, Hope and that there are still good people in this world. Something pretty new to me, but also something I'm trying to make a priority. So, with that in mind I used the images Faith Hope Love and Faith Hope Butterflies.And here is the card I came up with:



I used all pink and white on this card, which a touch of turquoise on the butterflies. I colored with Copic. I of course did some decoupage/popped several things LOL the lettering in HOPE, the hearts and circles, the butterflies. I used a Spellbinder die cut behind the top image. The two images are Faith Hope Love and Faith Hope Butterflies. On the inside I used two stamps from "Something Within" Unity Stamps. I added the die cut circle and added some gems to it. The pink paper is embossed.  And I think that is it.

Copic:
Hope: R0000, R20, R22, R24
Corners/Hearts: RV11, RV13, RV14
Butterflies: R0000, R20, R22, R24, BG000, BG53, BG57

Challenge #63 at Tammy's Scrapin Corner

We have a new challenge at Tammy's Scrapin Corner! This week is Challenge #63 and we are playing with Pink and Girly with a bit of Sparkle! Here is my creation for this week:


I was able to use this awesome image from Delicious Doodles - Dragon Dreams. For this card I used quite a few die cuts from both Cheery Lynn and Memory Box. I also used one of my edge punches. I embossed the one paper in the middle and then used my sanding block to sand it a bit to bring it out more. I used Stickles on the flowers and parts of her and the little dragonette. I created the sentiment. There are 3 different patterned papers that I have no idea where they are from. I distressed some edges and tore others. I added a few gems as well. I colored the image with Copic.
