little attitude!!!!



Happy Friday. Can you believe I got a card posted in the middle of the week? Now that it has been a week since school is out, I am starting to settle into my new life as a calm person (hehehe).....Actually, it has been really wierd without all the craziness. If life has settled down enough, I gave my notice at my job, and I will be taking the summer off to spend with my family, before I start nursing school in the fall.

So, moving onto my card today. My friend Peggy, was so sweet to stamp me some Sugar Nellie Images and this has been the first time I have played with them. I think she is just soooo cute. I also just got this new Delovely Cosmo Cricket DP from HSE where everything is on sale for 45% off.........

I don't know if this hppens to you, but I am in a bit of a embellishments rut right now. I feel like all my cards are looking the same, and I comtinue to use the Prima flowers. Any suggestions? Does this happen to you?

Well, my card qualifies for the following challenges:

Friday Sketchers: Follow their sketch

Penny's - Recipe - 2 PP, 1 Ribbon, 3 Embellishments - I really like recipe challenges. I used 2 BG papers, a ribbon on the top and 6 flowers.

Crafty Catz Challenge #32-The challenge is petals and pearls


I hope You have a fabulous Friday and Happy Creating

Three Clover Thursday & Digi Shack challenge Thursday


Happy Thursday!!!! Today i have two wonderful challenges for you. The first challenge is Kerry's over at Three Clover Designs. Her challenge was to make a card using flowers the flowers can be anywhere or anything. This is a really easy challenge for me, because I almost always have a flower somewhere on my card (hehehe).
Okay, while I was away on my stamping trip in Vermont, friends of mine (Mary/Peggy)were showing me some of there new stamps. They had just place a fairly good sized order with Sugar Nellie and they were playing with those. Well, I have seen sugar Nellie and liked them, but in person, I LOVED them. Oh boy, another thing I "MUST" have. My card today was made with one of there images. They tell me she is a pen pal girl, but I thought she looked more "rocker" girl to me, so I went with that. These are really fun images to color and to make "your own". These images can easily look so different depending on who is creating with them. I LOVE them! I don;t always like my cards, but I was pretty happy with this one. She kinda reminds me of my daughter.

Over that same weekend I had purchased some of the Bo Bunny flowers (I haven't seen these in my area), and put them on this card, Added some stickles and there ya have it.
Do you love flowers? Wanna play?To participate please upload your card to your blog or SCS and leave a direct link to that post with Mr. Linky over at Kerry's.
Then we can all enjoy your creations!
When uploading to your blog or scs please link back to this post so that everyone can join in on the fun!

Supplies
Stamps: Sugar Nellie
Paper: Basic grey

Digi Shack Challenge

Today's Digi Shack challenge is a sketch challenge. Trying to figure out my cards layout out is the hardest part for me, so a sketch challenge makes the rest easy. Love sketch challenges!


For the sketch image, I used one of Digi Shack's new Lani images. These are so cute, you have got to check them out. I new how I wanted to color her, but I wasn;t sure of her purpose. Who would I give this card to? I took a closer look at her and decided she was kinda "sexy" (hehehe). Well, that then lead to blue eye shadow, blush and pink lipstick, and then finally my saying (computer generated). I still don;t know who I will give this to, but I think it's funny for a grown mans b-day. What do you think? Wanna play Shack and join in on the fun. When uploading your samples to your gallery please use keyword TDSC05. Also, Toni, the owner is very generous she is over FREE Digi Hawaiian sayings. Go ahead over and get them.

Last but not least, I am addicted to using my new cloud maker, and I have been using clouds in all my cards. You don't have to have a Cloud maker to make clouds. You can use a scalloped oval circle. I am going to do a Mini tutorial on my blog tomorrow, so check back if you like my clouds!

Supplies:
Image: Digi Shack
paper: Basic Grey
ink: copics, bashful blue (sky)
misc: stickles, nessties

Have a wonderful Thursday and I hope you can play along!

My Mojo Is Back (I hope it stays)


This weekend 9 of my friends and I headed up to Vermont for a scrap booking/stamping weekend at a bed & Breakfast. What a fabulous time we had, There was lots of laughs, stories, singing, and a little bickering (hahaha). It was so nice to get to share ideas, and play with each others stamps. It was a fantastic time and I can't wait to go again.

Well, While I was there, I think my Mojo returned. It started of slow, but it came back to me. I hope it stays (hehehe). I truly believe the stress of school is what sent my mojo out. Well, 3 finals this week and I am FREE!!!!!

The card you see here is one I did this weekend. I borrowed this stamp from Mary and decided I love it. These Sugar Nellie's are so cute and great to work with.

This is 0ne of 6 cards I made while I was away. So stay tuned for more cards and some big news! Have a fabulous day and happy creating!

SUPPLIES
paper: Bo Bunny, paper trey white
stamps: Sugar Nellie
ink: Copics, memento black

3 Clover Thursday Challenge *inspiration*


Hey it's Thursday and that means 3 Clover Thursday Challenge. Today's challenge is a inspiration challenge (see photo). When I looked at this cake, the colors and stripes are what popped out at me first. so, that is what I went with. I received some Sugar Nellie images from Anne in my sisterhood bloggers group, and I wanted to try these out, so I combined the two to make a Birthday card, and this was my result. I really wanted to use some orange, but I couldn't find any in my stash that I liked, so pink and green it was!!!!!!

I wonder what you would take from this photo. What kind of card would you make? Wanna play? Take the challenge, make a card and then head over to Kerry's blog and sign up with mr. linky. Can't wait to see what you make. If you have a chance, check out the cards from other ladies on the inspiration team. They are FABULOUS!
