CC&S #320

Hello! I've got a very busy week ahead of me. Both boys have track meets (2 each) , having a garage sale with my mom and friend, working, and thursday night my oldest is being inducted into the national honor society. But fear not I will find time to craft, I might not sleep. I chose this fun SSS die for this challenge, so it worked nicely with these colors. Plus I LOVE this die. I've seriously made about 30 cards with it since I got it.Also playing along with CASology Mother challenge.  Now off to work for this girl. Thanks for stopping in today.

Simply Create Too #149

Hello! Happy Friday!!!!! I'll be crafting my little fingers to the bone today, getting ready for a craft show in 2 weeks. Today's card features a stamp from the Ton stamps, I love their florals!! I die cut a scalloped edge frame from Honey bee, watercolored my floral image and added a couple of clear sequins . This is a card you could easily change the sentiment or the color of the flower and mass produce. Thanks for stopping by today.

CC&S #319

Hello! Happy Tuesday to you all. I'm scrambling to get all the things I need to get done completed. But then isn't everyone these days? I literally threw this together last minute. I had another idea, but I saw a envelope Kristina Werner shared with a speech bubble, and I knew I had to try it for this sketch. I rotated the sketch to fit my cat in. For the colors this week I blended them on with my life changing brushes (I like them , but my life didn't change) then stamped a SSS grid background with water to remove a bit of the color. I like the soft pattern it created. Thanks for stopping by today.

The Holly and Ivy challenge #48

Hello! I'm back with a fun card for the week's anything goes challenge. I just received some of the new sparkle alcohol ink cardstock, it's fantastic. I used indigo, sailboat and pool alcohol inks, and used some lift off ink for the sentiment and the splatter . I wish it photographed better.. it really is stunning. I 'm glad I ordered 2 packs, as I played alot with it and used most of the 1st pack. Thanks for stopping by today.

CC&S #318

Hello! I'm stopping in with a card for our sketch challenge. I used the same stamp set as last week's card, from Ink Blot shop. When I finished last week's card, I thought that the set would work well for the sketch too. It's been a really busy week , getting ready to host Easter, kids track meets, work ... I really could use a nap. Hope everyone had a nice Easter, Thanks for stopping by today.

CC&S #317

Hello! It's Tuesday so that means I'll be sharing my card for this week's color challenge. Last month I went to create(anyone else go?) and picked up this darling stamp from Ink Blot shop. I think these colors are perfect with these images. I think next time I have a difficult color combo I'll be using this stamp again. I have a busy week ahead of me and lots to do. I hope you all have a great week. Thanks for stopping by today.

The Holly and Ivy #47

Hello! I'm sharing my DT card for The Holly and Ivy Christmas card challenge # 47... Anything Goes. I've had this die in a basket (where I keep new things I haven't used yet) for around 7 months. I ink blended some distress oxides (broken china, chipped sapphire , and seedless preserves), sentiment and die are both stampers anonymous , die is cut from chalk paper, and then i mixed a bit of white paint (van gough) with a bit of ink on 3 pixie dust. I wish you could see the shimmer the sky has. I'm planning another card , but changing the sentiment. Thanks for stopping by today.
