July 25 inspiration card

Inspiration card for July 25.

Well it's been a few days since I have posted anything on my blog, I was kinda wist away by my husband unexpectedly.....a couple of times.

 I finished my parents 50th wedding anniversary celebration party, it went very well. Turned out closer to a wedding than an anniversary but it was wonderful. They enjoyed themselves a lot. When that was finished I was home for like a day then we went away to relatives for a couple days to the lake. Then unexpectedly came home and gone again the next day to visit my sister-in-laws at her new place in southern British Columbia. We took a day away for our 25th wedding anniversary, stayed at a beautiful little hotel, went out for a wonderful supper, walked on the boardwalk, had a glass of wine on the marina. It was truly a wonderful way to spend an anniversary with a man that is the love of my life and my soul mate. 

Well now that I have given you the low down on my last couple of weeks I'll get to the card that I just finished. This is a wonderful image from Whimsy Stamps called Megan school girl created by designer Scrappers Delight. Such a cute image and fun to create with, although school does not start here for a little better than a month.

 a closer look at part of the image.

 The sentiment  is a new package that I found while I was gone the other day from Just Rite.

supplies: copic markers, Bazzill cardstock, Spellbinder Twenty-two, Just Rite - large fancy sentiments, miscellaneous flowers, Offray ribbon, Bo Bunny gems, Martha Stewart branch punch.

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.

A closer look at the colored image she is carrying a sword and is standing strong just like Maddy is.

 I hope that you can 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!
