July 14 inspiration card muffin

Hello welcome back to my blog.
sorry my post this last week is a little late, so I'll just have to post another card this week to help make up for my crazy schedule. Hope your doing well and that I can inspire you to post a card or create today.
I made this super cute cute card using a digital image from Whimsy stamps called Muffin from designer Lia Stampz. I colored this image using copic markers and used a new spellbinder for the little dollies on the edge of the card. I never did anything way over the top but I sure love the way this card turned out. Sometimes simplicity can speak volumes. I hope you have a fabulous day full of wonderful and happy things. I added a few strips of this really great ribbon I came across then put a line of pearls in between.The little dies are from spellbinders and are called Medallion seven.

So here is my card for this week.


A bit of a closer look at this adorable colored image.

Thank you for stopping by
I hope you have a wonderful day!

My card for the blog hop

This is my card for the Digital release using an image called hummingbird from designer Dana's Digi's. I wanted to try an new technique with this card. I always use foam squares to give my cards a 3 D look. So I tried doing a 3D paper piecing card. I didn't get as in depth as I could have but, I wanted to try it on an easy level. I only did a few layers but it is alot of work and cutting. The effect was so wonderful, the photo doesn't really justify it. But I had fun doing it.

A closer look at the paper piecing of the flower.
Supplies: Copic markers, Digital image and Treasured moment tickets from Whimsy Stamps, Kaiser patterned paper, Bazzill cardstock, Decorative Labels Eight from Spellbinders, Kaiser craft pearls, foam squares.

Thank you for stopping by
Enjoy the hop.

June 30 A Card for Maddy

A Card for Maddy!

This post is done in honor of a special little girl that I learned about from Simon Says. They have been doing a card drive for her, so I have made this card and will pop it in the mail and send all my prayers and wishes that this bone marrow transplant will work this time for her. You can learn all about her story by clicking here. Hopefully you can make her card and brighten her day. I hope this one will.
This card is made with an image from Whimsy Stamps called Morgan from designer FairyDust Images.

This is my inspiration card that will hopefully inspire you to make a card for Maddy as well.

Super hero card June 25

Super Hero !
I think everyone likes super heroes, especially when your little. Growing up you pretend to 
be super heroes like batman and spider man with capes and special powers. Always catching the bad guys. I'm sure everyone has those kinds of memories from when they where little, you have probably watched your children use their imagination and do the same thing. Those are great memories to have so when I seen this image I knew it would be a great card to honor those memories. and rather than a birthday card I decided to do a just for you card. The sentiment is from the friendship ticket sentiments from Whimsy stamps. The image is a digital image from Whimsy stamps as well called Super Hero boy 1 from the designer Scrapper's Delights. You should jump over to the Whimsy challenge blog to check out the wonderful creations made by the Whimsy digital team and enter the challenge this month for a chance to win some great digital images.
I had so much fun coloring this image with all the areas to shade to get depth on the image. I don't make very many boy cards so this was a great opportunity to do so.

Here is my Super Hero card.

A closer look at the image
Supplies: Whimsy digital image  & friendship ticket sentiments, Bo Bunny patterned paper, Martha Stewart corner and matching border punch, Bazzill cardstock, Copic markers and Offray ribbon.


I am entering this card in the following challenges:
Challenges 4 Everybody: Anything goes
Cupcake Craft Challenge: Not for Flowers
Through The Craft Room Door: Anything goes Challenge

Thank you for stopping by to take a look
Have a marvelous day!

June 5 challenge shape card

Hi again!
I was just on yesterday and already another post crazy hey.
Well this is a tag that I made cause the challenge for this month on the Whimsy challenge blog is a shape card. Well I made a  tag. I thought it would be fun to use this super cute image from Whimsy Stamps called Cool Cat's Life Saver digital stamp from designer crissy. I love this little cutie, it was super fun to work with as well. I went to a local store to try to find something to put this tag on. I really wanted a sand pail and shovel etc. Well I couldn't find anything that would match the tag I made so I went with bubbles. I hand wrote the saying on the tag summer fun, and really what kid doesn't like bubbles. I think I'll give this away as a gift. I really loved doing this challenge cause I really got to step out of the box. I would love for you to create something and add it to the Whimsy challenge( click here to jump over to the challenge blog) to get a chance to win some wonderful digital images.
Think about it and go create a super wonderful project to win some great images. Hope to see what you have created.
Here's my tag and a huge container of bubbles.

Hers cool cat's Life saver image, colored with copic markers.


A bit closer look at my colored image. I added little dots around the outside of the colored image to help accent the image. I also used glossy accent by ranger to give the glasses a reflective look.

 and of course the bubbles.
 Supplies: copic markers, Bazzill cardstock, Martha stewart coner and edge punch, tag spellbinder, Basic grey buttons, Cheese cloth, miscellaneous charm, ribbon.


 I am entering this tag in the following challenges:
The pink elephant: Summer time theme
Paper take weekly: Non Square

Thank you for taking the time to look
Have a Fabulous day!
