Last Hurrah!

Hey Everyone!

Well we have some crazy weather here the last week. Monday was pretty seasonal but Tuesday and Wednesday it was a high of 40...ewww so gross and hot and sticky; then back to seasonal weather. It has been a roller coaster here lately. One of my friends even had frost this morning...unbelievable.

So in honour of our crazy weather I though one last hurrah to summer was in order!
 

 

 

Here is the closeup...

Sadly I can't find the colours I used. :(  AH HA! Found them:

E93, E000, E00, E11, E21, E13, E04
R24, R29,YR20,YR21, YR24
Y35, Y38, B02, B00, BG45, C4, YG05
G14, G19, Y17

The stamp I used is by Saturated Canary, Cali Girl! Just love her stuff!

I did have fun colouring the background. Not my best by any reach but I think it turned out pretty good.

Well enjoy the good weather before it's gone.

Cheers!

Happy Friday!

Hi All! 

I have had such an interesting last two weeks. I got really sick last week and ending up having to take the entire week off....YUCK! Thankfully by Friday I was feeling much better. 

Back to work this past week...boy do I miss sleeping in. Oh well, it was good to get back to some sort or normalcy. 

Well here is another super sweet card I did up awhile ago. I used one of Mo Manning's images, which you can find at the online store HERE! 

Of course the closeup of the image. I just love cute little fairies.

Anyways off to get some work done. 

Have a great Friday.

Cheers.

Krafty Guest Challenge - Card 4

Hi Everyone!!!

As you know I was picked as one of the ten finalists for Kraftin Kimmie's Guest Challenge last week. The challenge for round 2 is Inside Outside. The idea behind this challenge was to not only decorate the front of your card but the inside as well. 

Here is my last card for this challenge. I used one of the new release stamps from Kraftin Kimmie "birthday girl". She is just cute!

and the inside of the card....

Krafty Guest Challenge - Card 3

Hi Everyone!!!

As you know I was picked as one of the ten finalists for Kraftin Kimmie's Guest Challenge last week. The challenge for round 2 is Inside Outside. The idea behind this challenge was to not only decorate the front of your card but the inside as well.

For this card I used one of the new release stamp sets called Happy Campers. Since I love camping and it is July long weekend I thought this would be perfect.

Isn't she just the sweetest little thing you have ever seen sitting in her tent. Not to mention that cute little flower box.

For this card I coloured the image using my copics, I also had the little fir tree button to add a little more "woodsy" feeling to the card. 

 ...and here is the inside of the card....

enjoy!
