Sweet Dreams...

I am enjoying the nice long weekend, too bad the weekend will be ending soon.  I have had some time to doodle in projects here and there and with birthdays and anniversaries coming up, I definitely had my thinking cap on for some new cards and other projects.

I am participating in this week's Chi Chi Memories (CCM) sketch challenge.  Natalie (owner of CCM) always has great challenging sketches to play around with.  And her designs are just too cute!  And...there is a chance to win free images too!  How great is that??

Along with making a couple of birthday cards using her images, I created this sweet card using images from the CCM good night babies set.  The cute girl reminds me so much of my daughter Olivia. :)

Below is the sketch and my card for the challenge:



Supplies:
Making Memories designer paper
Prima flowers
pink stick on gems from my stash
CCM good night baby and sentiment colored with Copics RV32, E00, E33, W3 and the colorless blender

Thanks for stopping by!  Enjoy the rest of your week!

Robyn's Fetish Wacky Wednesday Freebie




It's Wednesday and it's Robyn's Fetish Wacky Wednesday!  I am excited to show you the freebie for today as I had a lot of fun creating my card with it.

Here is today's freebie image:




Is the puppy the cutest you have ever seen?  To get the freebie image, click here to go to the challenge blog.  Also, Robyn's Fetish is having a 30% off sale starting today through this Sunday the 31st on all of Robyn's images, including Digi Kitty, who just came on board.  All of the images are beautiful, so be sure you stop by the store!

Without further ado, here is the card I made with the puppy image:



















I made this card for my husband for Valentine's Day.  When I saw the image that was going to be given away for Wednesday, I knew I had to make a Valentine's Day card.

The red and cream cardstock is from Bazzil.  The designer paper is from Making Memories Love Notes collection (double-sided).

I cut the image of the puppy, using my Nestabilities large and scallop rectangle die-cuts.  I colored the puppy, using the following Copic colors:

R37, E35, E21, E02 with some gold glitter from my At You Spica pen.

The tag was made using my Cricut machine with the Sweethearts cartridge.  The stamped "love" image was from a Stampin Up! stamp set called Word Play that I got at a used stamp sale at my crafts store.  The "love" image was stamped using Memento Lady Bug ink.  The twine tied on top of the tag is from my stash. The photo corners were cut using my EK Success punch.

Prince "Charming"

Started off the New Year with a bad cold from my poor daughter. We are both recovering slowly, but unfortunately got me in the "flu blues." I was able to complete my entry for two challenges:

1) La-La Land Crafts Challenge #19 - "How Charming" - Use charms in the entry

2) Copic Colour Challenge #45 - Below are the colors to use:



Below is my entry:



I LOVE the new Hero Arts stamps! I thought this one that I used for my entry was appropriate.

The cute frog, castle, "charming" prince and sentiment are from Hero Arts Prince Charming stamp set. I used the following Copic colors for the frog, castle and the prince:

YG03, BV04 (in place of CCC color BV02), C3, C5, E39, E00, E33, YR23 and the colorless blender. I also used my At You Spica gold pen for the crowns and the clear pen for the prince's shoulder pads.

The castle was dabbed with some Versa Color sky blue ink. I also used Versa Color Bark to distress the edges of the designer paper. I used my Marvy Uchida corner puncher to punch the corners.

The yellow cardstock is from Bazzil. The brown cardstock is from Wassau. The designer paper is from My Mind's Eye. The gold eyelets are from Making Memories. The gold crown charm the prince is holding is from my stash.

Thanks for stopping by!
