Love my Monsters!

I'm so girly girl and then along come these cute digi monsters from Victoria Case and I just go crazy over them! She has 5 newer digi monsters out and they are soooo cute! She also has some new rubber monsters out too! And I'm waiting for the mailman!

I colored 4 of the 5 monsters yesterday with my prisma's. They are fun to color, you can have any colored monster you want! I used purples and greens mostly, must have something to do with moon monsters!

Its sooo cold in MN that I have a sweatshirt and slippers on! Great excuse to stay in the house and play! Hope everyone else is warm!

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy 4th of July!

I love it when I actually have a purpose to a card! Makes it all the more fun! This great image is from Victoria Case. She has just released 8 more new digi's today! Go check them out!
This is "Ready to Go". I woke up in the middle of the night and knew what I wanted to do with her. She is going on a 4th of July picnic! I'm going to send this one to my mom!
I've had the DP forever! I just had to find it! I think its the only DP that is red/white/blue that I have ever even bought!
I colored her with my prisma's, the stars, BBQ Time and Happy 4th of July is from the same set, but I can't remember by who! I used my nesties on the stars and the red/white/blue banner. Using my oval nesties and cutting them in 1/2 and layering them. I bought a little star punch a while back at JoAnn's and this is the first time I had a chance to use it.
Make sure you stop at Vic's and check out her great rubber and digi stamps!
Thanks for stopping by!

This is Angel Heart by Victoria Case Art Designs. One of her FAB digi images!!
I had all this colored and ready to put together and ran out of time with the wedding. So I finished this one up today. I think she is soooo cute! I used everything from my stash so have no idea where the DP came from! I colored her with copics and stitched around the image and corners with DMC floss. The dew drops are from this huge bag I bought at Michaels a while back.
I'm off to play more! Seems like its been a long time since I colored and cut paper!

The Bride & Groom

Well how can you be so busy for so long and then BAM...its over! It turned out wonderful!

The day couldn't of been more perfect! Sun was shining, just a nice breeze and big white fluffy clouds! The Bride and Groom smiled non stop!

Its was so much fun and the wedding was gorgeous. A few minor mishaps but nothing that anyone would notice. It was truely a awesome day for everyone!

Here is a pic of the Emily and Alex (my new son-in-law!!) and the girls. The guys had already left by the time I got outside to snap a few pics! The little one in the middle is Mariah, my granddaughter. She had a great time!

I'll be back soon!

Blowing Kisses

I had time yesterday to work on a card! This is Melinda Blowing Kisses by WOJ. I've had this stamp and inked it up about a week ago and colored her. I love to sit in the evenings and watch tv and color! I made this for Mariah, my granddaughter who is in my daughters wedding as the Jr. Bridesmaid. Mariah is my biggest fan and no matter what gramma does, she loves it! When I talked to her last week at her first fitting for her dress, I asked her what her favorite color was, it changes weekly! Last week it was pink. So pink it was! She loves sparkles, like any 7 year old and so I glittered it up a bit.

The DP is by BoBunny, Tutu Dot and My Minds Eye, Penny Lane. The rhinestones on her necklace and bracelet are nail art! I picked these up a long time ago and they work perfect for cards! I made the jeweled stick pin from beads I have from my beading days. My pearls are from Kaiser and they were white, I used my copics and colored them pink. I used my EK Success punches.
Thanks for stopping by and I hope everyone has a great weekend!!

Chooo Choooo!!

Have you ever been putting together a card and didn't want to finish! That was this one. I had so much fun putting this together! I just wanted it to go on and on! I've been playing with it for about 3 days now. This is one of my favorite Edwins! He is so cute sitting there in that hat! My Edwin stamps get ignored a lot of the time!

I colored him with my copics. This yummy DT is by, My Minds Eye, Laundry Line Collection. Lucky me found a wonderful scrap store about 15 miles from me! They now have a new best customer! The corner and train was cut from my Sizzix. My eyelets and ribbon I had in my stash and the border and branch punch is Martha Stewart. I love the browns and greens togther.

The picture is really light and bright. I tried something new in my graphics program for lighting. Putting this image next to the orginal really shows how dreary my pics were. I'm not sure that I like this bright pic yet! But details show up much better!

Thanks for stopping! Happy Thursday!

Magnolia-licious DT Layout Challenge #2

What can I say? The other card is BAD! The more I look at it the more I wish I would of never put it on the blog! LOL It looks so blah! So I did another one! Same Tilda as before, I never stamp just one of anything! Colored her with my copics, still need tons of practice! I used my CB folder for the paisley embossing then used my dew drop inks for the shading. My nesties for the ovals. Ribbon and buttons from my stash. MS border punch. The DP is by My Minds Eye, the Bloom & Grow collection. The sentiment is from TAC, Tag Tidbits.

Thanks for stopping by! Have a great day!

June DT Magnolia-licious Sketch Challenge

This is my first time ever in doing a Layout Challenge for the Magnolia-licious group! I own the group! LOL Not that I haven't wanted to, just time gets away and before you know it, another month came and went! So this month, I told myself I was going to start doing them! There is a new blog for the Magnolia-licious DT layout challenge, Magnolia-licicious Highlites! Stop by and check out the great cards! This great layout is from DT member Kerry D-C.

I used New Years Tilda, I think she's cute for anytime of the year! I used copics and Prisma's to color her. All the paper is from my stash and the same with the brads. The ribbon is from JoAnn's and is spose to be for the wedding cake! LOL I bought a few extra rolls! The edging was done with MS border punch, and my oval nesties.

I had a hard time with this card. For one thing I searched the house for something round to make my 1/2 circle. Finally used a glad plastic container from the cupboard! I cut the DP 5.5x5.5 and then cut my white CS 5.5x5.5 and it looked aweful. Took a 12x12 and cut it 5.75 square and got a border, which afterwards thought WHY WHITE?? To late now. I also have the other white layer under the DP! Finally called it a card, and I was done! I might have to play with another one!

Hope everyone is having a great week!

Thanks for stopping by!

Wedding Card, Peggy Loves Vintage

This is a Wedding image from Peggy Loves Vintage. I bought her wedding image cd and the images are vintage and awesome!! All I had to do was print and do the layout! I put no bling on this card at all and got the vintage classy look I was going for. These images print so perfect! This was printed on Bazill cardstock. Gives it that older look. Such fun images to play with!

I'm in the wedding card mode!

thanks for stopping by!
