Cutesy Again! LOL!

Good Morning!

I had to do cutesy again! I couldn't help myself! My layout is actually from a sketch Stamp Tv had a short time ago!
My card is pretty simple. Crushed curry was my starting point, layered with melon mambo and razzelberry lemonade dp. My little precious moments girl is on whisper white layered on melon mambo. I colored her with prisma colored pencils and OMS.

Carol has been pounding away at the key board again Storing embellishments is the topic for today!

Have yourself a great day!

Good Morning!

I hope this post finds everyone well! After my ugly card yesterday.... I was able to get all my work caught up! Huge smile and sigh! It feels so good when the house is clean and the laundry is done! I even washed my bug and put it to bed for the winter :(
I have a just because card today! I love the ENJOY set. It's just fun to work with! My card is pretty basic! I started with real red as my card base. I layered with whisper white and washington apple dp. Stamped my focal image and used a flower punch for the O. I then did a little paper piercing and there you have it!

Stampin Sisters in Christ #6

Good Morning!

I'm a little late posting today! I had to get up and see what the Stampin Sisters in Christ had in store! The scripture for today is:

Psalm 19:14: Let the words of my mouth and the meditations of my heart be acceptable in your sight Oh, Lord, my strength and my redeemer.

The challenge for this week is to make a card letting know someone that you are thinking of them or praying for them. A"thinking of you" card is always sure to bring a smile to someone's face. And a "praying for you" card is sure to bring comfort. Both are blessings as much to those who give as to those who receive! I copied this from their blog due to a time crunch!

I am walking for breast cancer awareness today. I am a member of the Susan G Komen foundation. We have a fundraiser today so what better card than a pink ribbon? My MIL is a breast cancer survivor as are a couple of my friends. This is my way of giving back! If you would like to donate, you can do that here. Onto my card. My picture isn't very good, it's still dark :( ! This card was pretty simple, a little pink piroutte card stock and dsp add a ribbon and there you have it!

Have a blessed day!

Welllllllll Good Afternoon!

It seems my mojo has made a come back! Woot Woot! My card is for two challenges..... The sketch is for Crazy 4 Challenges and the other challenge is for Potluck Friday on Stamp TV. Potluck Friday is to make a card with a favorite piece of clothing you just can't live without! Well I don't know about you but the older I get the more clothes I need! Mostly to cover up my ever changing menopausal body! Seriously..... Anyhoo the piece of clothing I used on this card is the shoes and the hat! I love a good old pair of shoes and baseball cap. No baseball cap here, but it is a hat! Hee! Hee! My card base is dusty durango layered with whisper white and another piece of embossed dusty durango . The focal image is Nellie from Art Impressions. This was really fun to make.... I LOVE the elderly and enjoy the humor Art Impressions has put into their images! Well that's it for today!

May the good Lord knock your socks off today with a ton of blessings!

Now I have to use them.... don't want to be wasteful! LOL! Ok back to my card! I don't know her name but I dressed her in so saffron, always artichoke and soft suede. She is nestled on nesties and layered on autumn traditions. That's it for today! I promise!
