Anything Goes Birthday Challenge!

The newest challenge is up at The Stamping Boutique "Anything Goes Birthday"

I admit it, I can't resisit Aj and Audrey digis from TSB!  If you love them as much as I do head over to the shop, everything is 30% off right now in honor of back to school!  Yay, yay, yay, do I sound excited that my daughter is going back to school?  She is going into the high school and the poor thing is a nervous wreck.  She starts tomorrow, I can't wait!  So back to my card, I colored with Copics and the paper is Doodlebug, love all the bright colors.  Hope everyone is having a good week so far.

Wee Suzi Beauty

I've used this image lots of times but she is such a beauty I can't help myself!  This is a Wee Suzi digi, colored with Copics,  all the flowers are from Wild Orchid, papers are Doodlebug.  Hope everyone is having a good weekend, watched some terrible horror movies and made some cards!  Mark's sister is getting married next weekend so we've been helping her make her favors and stuff for the rehearsal dinner.  Tomorrow we are putting together her programs for the church.  Can't believe it's a week away!  Thanks for stopping by.

Banner Days

New challenge at The Stamping Boutique!

Colored with copics, paper is from Close To My Heart.  I made the banner using my Silhouette Cameo, starting to get the hang of that thing!  Make sure you check out the design team's awesome work this week!  Hope everyone is having a good week so far.  I rearranged my craft room for the third time and think I finally have everything where I want it.  I'm sure that will change lol.

Little Wizard Cutie

Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend.  Once of my closest friends came to stay with us for a few days.  She lives in Florida (I'm in Connecticut) and she flies up a couple times a year and we go shopping!  So we did our part for the economy at the outlets in Wrentham, MA.  I was actually really good I bought three Christmas presents!  My daughter picked out a bunch of stuff for back to school.  We shopped, went to the races, ate out a lot and then I dragged her to a tattoo convention in Hartford.  We saw some amazing art work.  So it's been a fun week.  Back to cards!  This cutie is a Stamp Fairy digi.

Colored with Copics, don't you just love the little owl??  Happy Sunday!

Show Me The Presents!

The latest challenge is posted at The Stamping Boutique and it's all about the presents!!  We have new design team members so come check out their amazing work.

Here is my card with one of my lovely Audrey's!  Colored with copics.  Hope everyone is having a good week, I have a friend coming from Florida to visit at the end of the week, can't wait to see her!  We usually spend days shopping!  I'm sad that the Olympics are over they were amazing, thank you London!  The amount of talent the atheletes have is just mind blowing, I don't understand how they can do some of the things they do!  Everything was fantastic and the opening and closing ceremonies were just unbelievalbe.  My daughter was happy she got to see her beloved group One Direction. 

Stampavie

I picked this stamp up at my fave LSS Inspiration Station.  I love Stampavie, their stamps will stamp such a nice clear image.  So I didn't get as many cards done as I thought I would today, I think I did 3 and then I re-arranged my craft table again.  At some point I will get it just where I want it.  My daughter and I headed out to run a bunch of errands.  It had been raining but no big deal, well, we were on our last stop and the rain was so bad that we thought we would wait it out a few in the car.  So I thought I'd check the radar and holy cannoli what a storm!  We had tornado watches so we decided to come home.  To say that we have had severe weather the last year and a half is an understatement so I was a little nervous.  The house was all good and we had power so I was happy!  So anyway back to my card....

Just look at these cute little mice!  Colored with Copics, flowers are all Wild Orchid.  U used one of my Pearl pens to make the yellow dots.  Hope everyone is having a good Friday!

Whimsie Doodle Cutie

Check out this cutie digi from Whimsie Doodles!

I have had this paper forever and as soon as I saw this image I knew it would be perfect.  I think it's from Queen & Co.  I love blue/green combos.  So glad tomorrow if Friday, I have the day off again and am hoping to get some crafting time in.  I'm running out of options of things to watch on Netflix I think I've exhausted the horror/thriller/mystery/zombie/viral plague/natural disaster selections!!  I am patiently waiting for the second season of The Walking Dead to be available on disc two and a half more weeks!  Can't resist anything zombie related lol!  Hope everyone had a good week!

Balloons!

The new challenge is up at The Stamping Boutique and it's all about balloons!

Here is my creation - colored with Copics.  This was something completely different for me.  I used my Silhouette to cut and score the box and cut three balloons.  Make sure you stop by TSB's blog to see the DT's awesome creations.

Halloween Fluffles

Fluffles has to be one of my favorite characters ever, I think my first stamp that I tried Prisma pencils and OMS with was a Fluffles.

Colored with Copics, the paper and buttons is Doodlebug.  The web punch I just picked up at JoAnns the other day.  I'm tired today, stayed up to late watching the Olympics but I can't turn off the swimming or diving!
