Squigglefly Challenge

Hello! Well it is time for another Squigglefly Challenge! And our challenge today is to use HOT colors!!! Orange, yellow and red! Yep, hot hot! Sizzle HOT! Kind of like how our weather has been! Although today we have had a nice break in that heat. Well back to my card...I used the Words digi image from Squigglefly as well as the Fancy Buttons digi image. I love how this one turned out...the words paper uses a lot of "friends" type of words so this would be a great friend card! Hop on over to the Squigglefly Challenge Blog to check out what the other DT ladies created...some really HOT cards. And join in the fun!!! Well, back to work!! Have an awesome day today.

Thomas the Train Birthday Card

Hello! I hope everyone is having a great Sunday. Today we are off to celebrate our 3 year old grandson's birthday. He is a big Thomas fan right now and I really wanted to make him a Thomas card. I was lucky enough to find an svg file created by Denise...What a great file she has for this card. I struggled with Sure Cuts a Lot trying to get it to the file to the size I wanted but I finally was able to come up with something I was happy with. The only thing I added extra to the card was the red circle...I wanted to give the card the illusion of the tank so I cut a red circle with the circle Nestabilities and glued it behind the face of the card. I love how it turned out and hope my little man will think it is cool. Well, I have lots of visiting to catch up on since I have not done much at all from the time I got sick. Feeling tons better! I hope each and every one of you have a blessed Sunday and are enjoying the day whatever you are doing. Thanks for stopping by...I plan to be by to see you all after the birthday bash!

Glitterbabe Challenge

Hello Ladies! I am so sorry for not being here for such a long time. I believe I am finally over my health issue for now! Tomorrow is my last day of taking meds for 10 days and I am finally feeling a little more like me. Thanks for being patient with me and coming back to see me! Enough about me...how bout that challenge at Glitterbabe's this week? We were given a sketch to follow and are being sponsored by Stampin Dragon Designs! Isn't this the cutest image? The sentiment was computer generated by me. All the cardstock used was glittery card stock from my paper stash...the image was colored with copics and the little tree was cut and embossed using a cuttlebug die. I added some stickles to the tree and to the little guy's hat and wings just for a little more bling! A big thanks to our sponsor! Well be sure to go to the challenge blog to see what the rest of the DT ladies created. They are all awesome card makers! Thanks for stopping in to see me, I hope to be here more frequently now that I am feeling better! Have an awesome day!

HUGS!

Glitterbabe Challenge

Happy Thursday!!! And it is Glitterbabe Challenge day!!! We have had so much fun creating for Glitterbabe so far and are so excited to see all of you play along! Wow and you have all made some really awesome cards...some of those cards should have been accompanied with a warning....BLING CENTRAL...SUNGLASSES REQUIRED!!! Our challenge this week was a Back to School theme. Gliterbabe gave us some really cool images to work with. I used the apple and crayon. Colored both with copics and pop dotted them onto my card. This card was created with a big BLUNDER! I created my chalk board with one of the Nestie frames...colored both pieces with copics and wrote the alphabet on the outside frame....and school days on the "chalkboard". Well I went to run the pieces through the Xyron and put the darn things in the WRONG way! All the glue ended on the TOP of my pieces. GEEESH...well, the mistake solved my dilema of not knowing for sure where to put my bling...yep...you got it...right on that sticky chalkboard. Be sure to go to the challenge blog to check out the other DT members cards...they really outdid themselves again. Come play along with us this week, we would be glad to have you. Thanks for stopping in, have a great day, and hope to see you tomorrow!

My First Tent Card

Good morning all!! Well I decided to show you my first attempt at a tent card...I know they have probably been around awhile...but you all know I am a little behind!!! Well, maybe a LOT behind! All of the paper, ribbon and stamps used on this card were from Gina K...how pretty the colors are! Colored with copic markers and cut out with nestabilities. The flowers are from my stash and I believe I had purchased them at Hobby Lobby.

A little off subject here...BUT....I wanted to let you all know that in a few days, I will be posting some candy for my first anniversary of blogging! Yep...it has been a whole year already...and I want to thank each and every one of you for all your kindness and love that you have left me! I have thought several times that I may continue to make cards and hang up blogging. For now, I am going to stick with it. So....be sure to stop back in on Sunday...I will be going to CHA on Saturday and plan to hopefully pick up some candy to post on Sunday! Have an awesome day and thank you so much for stopping in to see me!

HUGS!
