Waffle Flower Challenge

Hey y'all! Happy Monday!



Today, we have a fun new challenge at the Waffle Flower Photo Challenge!

How lovely is that photo?!...



Here's my card.


I went with a very clean and simple card. And believe it or not, I used four different stamp sets! To start, I used a circle form the Shower stamp set. Which I masked half of it, so I ended up with a flower pot. After, I added my flowers. Which for those, I used the Loved stamp set. I kept all the 'base' flowers/stems 'purple/lavender' color. Then used a 'blue' and a 'sand' color to fill in the flowers. Once done, I added my 'shelf' using the Pattern Play stamp set (I just inked up one of the solid strips). To finish my card off, I added my sentiment. Which was from the Feather More stamp set. So what do you think?!...

Be sure to swing on over to the Waffle Flower Photo Challenge and see all the DT creations! And while you're there, I hope you'll join us! :)

Thanks for stopping by!
Enjoy your day!

you are beary special

Hey y'all! Happy Sunday! :)
A short and sweet post, today.

Can you believe it?!...I'm back again and so soon! lol Today, I'm sharing a card I made for the current Little Tangles Challenge. This is my first time ever playing along and I'm so excited! ;)



So, here's my card.



ACK! Do you like it?!...If you know me and my style, you know this card is not typical of me. Though, I have to say, I LOVE it! ;)

I pretty much watercolored everything! The background for the bear. The mushrooms. The beehive. Everything but the bees, though it did cross my mind. ;)

I've been on this whole Neat & Tangled kick, like I want pretty much everything! I have a couple other companies I'm the same with, but where have I been with all the Neat & Tangled stuff going on?! lol

Thanks for stopping by!
Enjoy your day!

Okay. One more card.

Yep. One more card for today! ;)

This was my first card I came up with for the Lawnscaping Challenge. 


Here's my card.


Nice and simple, yeah?...I did some more coloring with markers for my little birdies. Then did a little masking with my sentiment, just so it says 'happy day'.

Thanks again for stopping by!
Enjoy!

Love you tons

Yes, I'm back! :)

Not sure what it is, but I've been crafting away!...Hopefully, it stays with me like this! ;)

Seeing the Lawnscaping Challenge, I knew that was right up my alley! So, you know I had to play along! ;)


Here's my card.



I have to say, I'm very happy about this card. My idea actually came together for me! I did some watercoloring (again) for my heart balloons. Then, I used a blue distress ink and added it very lightly for a settle background. And I hope you're sitting down because I did some coloring!...With markers! lol I used two different shades of grey for my elephant and I think it looks alright?!...I'm still practicing my coloring skills (which I really don't have any). ;)

Thanks again for stopping by!
Enjoy!

Go forth and shine

Hey y'all! Happy Saturday! :)

I wanted to swing in today and share another shaker card for Virginia's View Challenge. Ever since my first card, all I keep thinking about are shakers! lol


So, here's my shaker.


As some of you may know, one of my new favorites is the origami die/stamp set. Playing around with that die some more, I came up with a shaker. I actually mixed and matched quite a bit of different sets.

I thought this card would work good as an encouragement card, or something in that nature. ;) And for my 'diamonds' I did some watercoloring.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Enjoy your day! :)

love

Hey, y'all! Happy Friday!

For some reason this week seems like it just was dragging!...Not sure if it's just me or not?...

Anyhow, I finally have some good light (and by that I mean good sunlight). ;) So, now I can share a card with you! :)

If you haven't seen it yet, Virginia's View Challenge has a fun shaker card challenge going on! Who doesn't love shakers, right?!... ;)


So, here's my shaker.


Having love in the air, that's what I went with. I did some watercoloring, using two shades of pink for my background. Then after (and once dried), I stamped on some hearts in gold ink. Rather than using clear acetate for my shaker, I went with vellum. Which, I stamped on my 'love' in the middle. So, what do you think?!...

Thanks for stopping by!
Enjoy the weekend! :)

Love and be loved

Hey y'all! Happy Sunday!

I'm swinging on in today, because we have a new challenge at CAS on Sunday!


Another fun one it is! ;) This time we're all about flowers! We want you to use a flower or flowers on your card.

So, here's what I came up with.


I went with a one layer card. Though, I did something a little different (at least for me) with my stamping. I started off stamping my image with black ink. Then, rather than coloring it in or lining up my stamps to fill it in. I went with using my stamps, though purposely having them be 'slightly off' from my base images. (hopefully, that doesn't sound confusing?...) Once done filling everything in, I added my sentiments. Which for the 'loved', I stamped with black ink. Then added a soft pink ink over it but again, stamping it slightly off. And I also added a few soft pink hearts around the flowers, too. Let me know what you think?!...

Be sure to swing on over to CAS on Sunday and see all the DT creations! And while your there, I hope you'll join us?!!...

Thanks for stopping by!
Enjoy your day!
