Tv and coffee

Good morning and Happy Valentines day to all my craft friends!! Today I would like to share with you a card I made for my for my hubby! It has been a long time since I have made him a card because I always lean toward the girly images when I shop haha but when LOTV had a sale recently, I grabbed  a few masculine/ boy images!! 



I colored this little guy up with my Copics and sprinkled some Frantage in vintage white. I  added my new wooden stars and it was a perfect embellishment especially because It was killin me to not use flowers on it! Haha


Thank you for stopping by!

Coffee time

Good Afternoon my craft friends and happy new year!!  I made this card a few days ago but have been feeling under the weather so I haven't got around to posting..
I was very excited last week to receive my stamps I ordered from LOTV!!! They are one of my favorite stamp companies. I got a mixture of Xmas images and cute girl images... as much as I always complain that I do not own boy images I could resist the girl ones!!!  So of course I inked them up right away!!!

I colored my image with Copics and used my new FRANTAGE  in vintage pink... I LOVE LOVE LOVE this stuff!!! I can predict that I am going to use this A LOT!!!



I used a coffee cup die cut and added a little frantage to it too ;0) It is hard to tell, but her heels are glittlery and sparkly as well as pearl dots on the tea/ coffee set.

I would like to enter my card to the LOTV challenge "anything goes"

Purple Magnolia

Hello my crafty friends!!! I am here today to share the Christmas card I made for my mom! She absolutely LOVES LOVES the color purple so I had to go with that color for her card! haha,  here is my second post with a purple Christmas card.


  I used my Mini Magnolia's that I got on sale a few years back.. If I remember correctly there were on a 2 for $ deal... so I got a TON!I also used my Magnolia Doohickey die cut sets for the lovely fence and the light post from the Paris night. I am so in love with the doohickey dies they are so detailed.... hopefully Santa will bring me more!  LOL


 I colored my Magnolia's with my Copics and made them pop with some 3D tape.


Thank you for stopping by today!

I would like to enter my card to the monthly  Magnolia-licious Challenge for the month of December!

Purple Christmas

Ahhh... The weather is actually starting to feel a little more "Christmas-y"  we are getting the gloomy, raining, snowy weather here and I LOVE IT!!! I just wanna stay inside cuddle up with a cuppa Joe!

Anywhoo.... I wanted to share my Purple Christmas card with you today that I made for my Craft friend Cheryl.. I just love to make nontraditional colored Christmas cards. Today for my card I used Tammy from Simply Sassy.. Isn't she cute!!! I am entering Tammy to into the sugar bowl challenge sparkle and shine! I added pearls which I think are kinda sparkly!


The snow man and the border of the oval are actually stickled but its hard to see.. I made more handmade flowers with my die.. I think I want more dies to make flowers with.. any suggestions??? these flowers are pretty mini.. maybe some small/ med flower dies.


I gave her glasses some diamond glaze to give them a glass look and gave her a little diamond earring.


Thank you for taking the time to stop by!

Xmas roller skater

Hello crafty friends!!!! today I would like to share with you my FIRST Xmas card of the year!!
whoo hoo! Can you believe it!?  maybe I need more Thanksgiving stamps??? haha there's always a never ending list of stuff I NEED and I know I'm not the only one!
 Today I used a Saturated Canary stamp named Bella isnt she a cutie!? I just love little purse with her music and lipstick!
I colored in a side walk with my grey Copics to add a little  of a background,, I also added some B00 and B000 to the top of the image but but a little hard to tell in the picture.

 I added some Stickles to her hearts and her red roses from WOTC..

  
I made some of my flowers from my new die cut from impression obsession. 
I went Die crazy at my craft store a few weeks ago.. and this Die was one of my purchases! I am still learning... but this is card I'm actually proud of!  : -)


I would like to enter my card to saturated canary sketch challenge.

Fall Colors

Hello all! The leaves are fallin' here in New Mexico and I just love the change in colors outside! That is what inspired my card today. I am using a Saturated Canary imaged named Rebecca.  Isnt she a DOLL!!!! one thing I love about Saturated Canary images is their pretty eyes and long lashes, It just gives them that EXTRA wow!
As always I used Copics to color my Image and attempted an orange background with a little bit of dots..  I kinda like having a little something going on in the back so the image doesn't look so plain.. My crafty friend Cheryl from the ink trap showed me this cool technique.
I used my new leaves Die cut set from Impression Obsession to make the cluster of leaves in the corner. I think I will like these leaves with some TH core paper..... I better add that to my "list" haha


Every girl needs a little bling so I added some spica pen to her gloves and her eyeshadow. I just love Spica pens! If you havent tried them... you should! they are very pretty IRL :)

Thank you for stopping by my blog today!

Cutie

Hello all! Just stoppin' by to show you my newest creation! I once again I tried out the "dotty background" but this time I tried to go 1 step further... I wanted to add an actual background! So I decided to put my little cutie sitting on the sidewalk next to some grass.. I just love what a little bit of a background does to an image, It just comes to life!


I would like to enter my card to the Saturated Canary challenge Pretty Pastels ... Wish me luck!

Another card for a friend...



Mornin!!!! whew I worked on this card all day yesterday so I hope my friend likes it! I have been promising her a card FOREVER!!! so finally her day is here! haha
Today I used a stamp called winking student...except I find her eye that winks a little creepy because its semi- opened still.. so I cut out her winking eye and glued her right eye in... so It still looks sorta weird.. but not scary! lol what do you think? I also left out the books/ apple she sits next to..and added diamond glaze to her glasses and tiiiiny little diamonds to the corners  : )



My friend really loves leopard so I paper pieced her top and again attempted the 3D look..




Thank you ladies so much for stopping by!!! Have a great day!
