Sunshine -- for Star Stampz Challenge Blog

It's time for a new challenge at Star Stampz Challenge Blog.  For the next 2 weeks, the theme is, "Flowers, Flowers, Flowers."  Ah, now if it were only warm enough for them where I live!

I used a delightful Star Stampz image to create this: 

This is Sunday Best colored with Copic markers.  

I used a variety of dies to create this card.  They are from Craftin' Desert Divas, Paper Wishes, Lawn Fawn, and Die-namics.  Papers are all digital, and were taken from my stash.  The flowers are also from my stash -- really old!

I hope you can join us this next 2 weeks are Star Stampz for our Flowers, Flowers, Flowers challenge.  I'd love to see what you create! 

I'd like to enter this in the following challenges:
Inky Impressions -- Let's Hear it for the Girl
The Crafty Addicts -- ATG/Springtime
Whimsy Stamps -- Spring Colors

I Love You This Much! for QKR Stampede

It's Friday, and time for a new challenge at QKR Stampede challenge blog. Our theme this week is "Father's Day Cards".  As it turns out, this was a tough one for me.  I lost my own father last year and my father-in-law a couple months ago.  My husband and I have no children, so I have no need for a Father's Day card.  This is what I came up with:

This sweet QKR Stampede image is Hug Me (digi15106). The sentiment, also from QKR Stampede, is This Much (digi15116).  I colored the Hug Me image with Copic markers. Several Die-namics dies were used on this card.  Papers and bling were from my stash.

Join us this week for our Father's Day projects challenge at QKR Stampede.  I'd love to see what you make! 

Bunny Love!

It's Friday, it's Friday!  I love Fridays!

I'm posting today for Timeless Twine, where today's theme is "Fun Friday."  What better way to have fun than a cute QKR Stampede image, a matching sentiment, and some pretty, springtime Timeless Twine to go with it?

I colored this adorable QKR Stampede image, Springtime Bunny (digi16104) with Copic markers. The sentiment, "Some Bunny Loves You" (digi10603) is also from QKR Stampede. I used a few dies on this card -- large heart by Die-namics, half-circle heart die by Memory Box.  The edges of the large heart are inked with Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Spun Sugar. The pink hearts that I wrapped with Timeless Twine were on my desk, left over from a Valentine project. The designer papers are from the My Mind's Eye Dwell 6x6 pad.

The fun twine?  All Timeless Twine, of course!  That goes without saying. I used all 3 twines from the Sorbet Collection (on SALE this month!)

I used Watermelon Sorbet, Key Lime Sorbet, and Razzleberry Sorbet. Please don't ask me to pick a favorite, because I can't.  I love them all!

Please join us this week at QKR Stampede for our Bunnies Challenge.

It's a Celebration!

Hello, and happy Thursday!  I have a birthday card to share with you today.  My cyber friend Donna, whom I first met on the Pinque Peacock design team, is celebrating a birthday today.  The 3 Girl JAM team has hijacked the  blog to help her celebrate her big day.  I made this card in honor of Donna and her special day.

That's one big birthday cake, sending sweet greetings Donna's way!

The cake pedestal is sitting on a layer of 3 Girl JAM distressed lace and Purple Passion ribbon from the Royal Bundle.

I created the background with a stamp called "She Sells Seashells" from Market Street Stamps. The cake die is from Die-namics.  The "Happy Birthday" sentiment is from Unity Stamp Company. All cardstock is from Close To My Heart.

Donna, I couldn't fit 50 candles on this cake, but age is only a number!  Enjoy your day, Love!
