Yippee!!

I have TWO posts today that relate to DCRU!  Please make sure you read them both.  Thanks!

 I have had this card partially made for MONTHS now.  Paper set out...Image colored...nothing else.  This week the sketch challenge at A Little Crafty Place seemed perfect for it.  My sentiment is by Hero Arts.  I got the entire set for $5 on clearance.  Such a deal!  That cute little girl image is DAISY.  She's a Puddle Jumper.  You can find her over at DCRU here.  I also used the MME Quite Contrary Sampler pack.  I added a few dew drops and a PTI button with twine.  Super easy...especially when the coloring was all done months ago:)

I think this card will be perfect for my not so little girl.  She is finishing up her last year in Elementary(sniff sniff).  She is so excited for school to be done and to be a "Middle Schooler" next year.  I have a little something for her "graduation."  That's all for the rest of the day now. I will have a PWCO sketch for you tomorrow.  It is my last day as a PWCO design team member.  So stop back for that.

Heading out to finish up my garden before it gets too hot!
 Thanks for popping in again!

Tutorial Day At DCRU!

Good Morning !  I'm all set for a mostly relaxing weekend.  We have a few craft project to do for my son's school.  How about you?  Any plans for the long weekend?

Today I have a tutorial over at A Crafty Little Place.  This is the design team member's blog  for Die Cuts R Us.and I am so honored to have been asked to contribute.  DCRU has quickly become one of my favorite online stores.  Claudia is so sweet, she has super fast shipping, great communication AND always has a super sale on things.  You know how I love a deal.  In addition to all the things on sale this week, she is offering up FREE shipping to anyone who places an order of $50 or more.  I used the awesome April card kit for my cards today.  So go check out the tutorial for all the details.  It is a bit long, I think.  I like to" talk. ' What can I say?

Here is a sampling of the cards I made:

 I'm entering this into the Stamptacular Sunday Challenge ~ Pearls and Swirls and the JUGS Wild Card challenge~ dry embossing.  My embossing folder is swirled.
