I used a newer but older Krista Smith image. She is constantly coming out with new ones. She is just a doll and great for Spring cleaning. I used some MME papers ( the new line is so cute). I also added some WOC wild roses. The shoes have stickles on them and I used liquid pearls left and right on the image. Of course my images are always colored with copics. I need to get some Promarkers or flew markers and branch out and try the Shinan or Shihnan however you spell them. I also used some lace.

If you get a  chance to play along with or sketch please do! Check out the team for more inspiration

It is Friday which means I will be watching Ghost Adventures tonight. Well I have a couple shows to catch up on. I will be working my butt off to get some things done while she is with her grandma. I have got to get a good schedule down too. I really need something right now!

Our theme this week is

"Spots and Stripes"

Our sponsor this week is the wonderful

LOTV

I know I did not use one this week. I am holding out for their new release. I cannot wait to get one or two of the newest images. Although this is a new Magnolia too. The papers are from an older MME paper pad but I really love these colors. 


I used a button and attached a bee charm to it tied with some ribbon I got from the Ribbon Girl.


I colored her with copics, then went over the image with Antique Linen DI and the edges with Walnut Stain. I also distressed the edges to the stain stood out even more.


The flowers are from WOC and I used some cheesecloth that I smooched Weathered Wood DI  into it.


If you get a chance to stop by and see what the rest of the team created.

Spring Time


For products used on my cards

Good evening everyone. Hope everyone is ready for the weekend. My mom is leaving me tomorrow. We had so much fun shopping around and trying help me be creative with my new room. Should have it all put away and finished by next weekend :)


Challenge #123 Spring

Our sponsor this week is

Heathers Hobbie Haven

Hey everyone. I created this card today isn't this lovely. I made this to be a springy, cute card.  I loved making this card as it was so relaxing and nice since I got everything almost finished in my craft space for now. I still need to get a piece of furniture but here consignment is just like shopping brand new so I have yet to find something I can fix up with some paint and distress stains. 


So about my card... I used a Tilda and colored her with copics. I used some new papers from MME distressed and inked. I recycled my Starbuck coffee collar and used it underneath the sentiment.  I added some WOC flowers and called it a day.



Hope you get a chance to check out the new challenge.

Lace


Good evening everyone. Are you ready for the weekend? It is Friday night/ Saturday morning. I have had a little miss sicko all week. I am hoping for some improvement soon. Her fever has been coming and going but nothing seems to be slowing her down.

I really love this image as I get to kind of use my imagination and make the balloons kind of show through each other. It was harder than I thought it would be.

The papers are MME, lace from RRR, an oval spellbinder, tons of distressing, and some pearls.


I colored the magnolia image with copics, added a doily behind the image, and embellished the lace bow with flowers.

Lurve

Good Evening everyone. I hope you are enjoying the start of the weekend.
I am kind of bummed as I was suppose to be going to Florida this week. Unfortunately, my fiance is working 12 hours shifts so it will be extremely hard to spend time with him at the moment...so we will be having some family time this summer and maybe make a weekend trip to the beach when he is not working! Last year we did a family trip at the beginning of the year and went to Florida near Tampa and rented a vacation home on the water that had a pool... talk about FUN! We spent more time out and about but got in the pool a few times. So maybe this year we can just go be at the beach....I miss the beach.. I miss the sun... I miss the salty water smell... I miss the sound of the waves... Sounds bad huh. I do not even swim but boy do I love the water and the beach!

Anyway there is a new challenge

Totally Gorjuss

has the theme of

LURVE (Love)

So today I used a new maggie. She is so adorable. I love her lace shoes.... if you look carefully the bottoms say LOVE. I love the dark earthy, rustic, and grungy kind of look of My Mind's Eye Union Square paper pad... it is so similar to the Lost and Found Christmas pad they had... I am hoarding that as I love those papers too much!
