Crazy4Challenges #223 - sketch.

I am crazy 4 challenges!!! I loved this sketch. So fun and I recently purchased a Grand Calibur machine and some new dies and embossing folders. The flourishes on my card are one of the "free" dies that came with my purchase. It's a tree. I just poked the trunks up underneath my panels, added some bows and seed beads and I'm lovin' it!
I sponged some SU Strawberry Slush ink and spritzed with some Old Olive ink mixed with alcohol, and Champagne Mist. I used my markers to dab ink onto my stamp and then huffed and stamped.

If you enjoy challenges or sketches or both, head on over to Crazy 4 Challenges.

Put Your Hands Up

That's right! That's what I said. Put your hands up, Pilgrim! LOL
Whoo doesn't love this guy???

I purchased a template last week for this little guy and his friends. I'll post them when I get to making them. Lynn Pratt is such a talented designer! The minute I saw this "Sheriff" I knew I wanted to create him. And I am so happy with the way he turned out! I followed Lynn's directions as closely as possible. I didn't have all the punches she used and all the same colors cs but I made do and I think he's perfect!
If you'd like to get your own "posse" check out Lynn's designs at www.stampndesign.blogspot.com

Laters!

Dynamic Duos 89

Dynamic Duos #89 Pistachio Pudding and Blushing Bride...
Loved this soft color combo. The colors just play so well off of one another. I've used my fav Tim Holtz stamp (older stamp) with 2 SU punches, ink, pearls, cs and some decorative paper from a Crate Paper stack designed by Maddie Holmes.

Get Inspired @ Dynamic Duos!!!

JFF

Another fun play date with my gal Deb. She bought these fabulous dies by Elizabeth Craft Designs and we just had to play with them today!!!

The first one is poles with little banner hanging. Too cute!

The second one is a park bench and I have to say, I liked making both but my fav is the park bench.

We did manage to get a couple other cards made as well but I didn't get pix of them.

Below is my happy buddy, Seamus Bobby MaGee. He had just gotten back from the groomers and was looking too handsome NOT to share.

JFF in a week

Over the past couple of weeks I have had a U.T. Or Bladder infection and haven't felt my mojo working. So the fact that I created anything in that time period is amazing to say the least. Still I managed to crank out these beauties!

#1 My grandson, Zackary participated in a Geography Bee in his elementary school. He WON!!!

The very next day he had to compete in a written Bee for National Geographic! we participated in the bee the next day but we haven't gotten the results yet. 

I received some new supplies in the mail last week and this and I did play a little while. Also, my wonderful hubs stopped in at Big Lot and bought me some marked down crafty items. 

#2

In the card below, I used my Unity Stamp of the Week. I love these little rubber rain boots. They are just too cute! I stamped the image onto a polka dot dsp. Then I used Ranger Pearls and dotted the petals of the flowers on the boot stamp. Then I went over the entire image with my crystal effects.

#3

The card below was created using products from a kit I purchased from My Craft Channel.

Loved that little bird! The ribbons are from the goodies hubs bought me. The paper doily is from Stampin' Up!

#4 

This one was created using some of the decorative CS my youngest daughter gave me for Christmas. The stamp is from Stampin' Up! I colored with Copics.

#5

This Geisha is from an old set but I lost the packaging so. I don't know who it is from. I started coloring with my Prisma Color Pencils. 

Still coloring

Finished coloring and putting it all together.

Fun in the New Year

Hubs gave me the new 25th Anniversary set of Copics for Christmas as per my Wish List request! So excited! I am really enjoying playing with them.

Fence scene is a printed RAK from my Friend Debbie A. and the flowers on the right are from a stamp set my friend Deb S. let me borrow.

Another printable from Debbie A. below.

Play Date with Deb S. resulted in the following beauties.

I'm sorry I haven't been very vocal lately. I have two excuses... I got a bad cold before Thanksgiving that is still hanging on and the holidays just kept me busy, busy, busy!

I hope you were all blessed with beautiful holidays spent with those you love and hold near and dear. Happy New Year Yall!
