MIM #283

Final card for the day, promise. I created this for a co-workers birthday. Playing along with Papertrey Ink's MIM challenge, water color wash. I watercolored the background paper and then added this gorgeous die cut and a sentiment. Simple, didn't take much time (except for the paper to dry) and I'm pleased with how it turned out.I plan to make a few more using this design and other colors and sentiments. Thanks for stopping by.

Still crafting away

Hello, I've been busy most of the day crafting. Enjoying the quiet time alone after a busy week. I'm playing along and trying out for the design team over at AAA cards. As soon as I saw their inspiration photo I thought of this stamp set. I thought about doing more colorful feathers, but settled on a tone on tone color . It just looked less busy, more clean and simple. Wish me luck! see you soon.

CCC #12

Hello, happy sunday to you. I hope you weekend is going well. I hope to find time to relax.... my youngest has us on the run lately. He is in track at school and a local little league baseball team and they over lap most days. I wish I had the energy my 12yr old does. Today's card is for Christmas Card Challenges. I rarely use my cricit , it collects more dust than anything. I used a Christmas cartridge for the tree and added some ruby slipper nuvo drops for ornaments. I hope you will join us. Now I'm off to take a nap.

Palying along with The Ton's monthly challenge , I have gold, stripes and watercolor . Also playing along with CAS Watercolor may challenge Flowers. Have a great day be back soon.

A hint of pink

Good evening, I hope your week went well. I've been out of sorts all day, not sure why. So now that I have a little time to relax I'm going to play along with a few challenges. Starting with the Simon Says Stamp wednesday "hint of pink" challenge. I recently picked up this sentiment stamp and wanted to use it. I going to enjoy a little alone time and create a few more cards, have a good night.

May Challenge

Hello , happy Cinco de Miyo to you. We are celebrating at work today. Big pot luck for lunch... yumm! I'm sharing my DT card for Simply Create Too 's MAy challenge use a digi stamp. This is an image I 've had for while and if you know my aversion to people on cards you'll understand why this is one of the only digi stamps I own.

CC&S 221

Hello, I'm hosting this week's color challenge over at CAS Colours and Sketches. I had in my mind a floral card for Mother's Day (since it's next week here in the states). I've been so busy preparing for a craft show in a few weeks. I set a goal for myself of 250 cards to take to sell......Yikes! What was I thinking ? I hope I can do it. I hope you will join us this week. See you soon.
