Summer, summer, summertime!

This card was one I created for last week's VSN on SCS. It was fun, I'm enjoying the heck out of challenges these days!

What I used: Hanglar & StAnglar image, Copic markers, Inkssential white pen, Target $1 spot PP, gingham ribbon and gingham brad, ant shaped buttons, Spellbinders dies, Cuttlebug.

That's it for today! Thanks for stopping in and checking on me. Hope you had a great weekend. :)

Beee-lieve it or not, I made another bee card!

Another hÄnglar and stÄnglar stamp! Eee, they are so cute, y'all.

This is gonna be short and sweet. I'm t-i-r-e-d!

What I used: hÄnglar and stÄnglar bee, Cuttlebug, Spellbinders dies, SU CS, Copic markers, ribbon, Patterned paper (DCWV, maybe?), MS edge punch.

Thanks for stopping by!

NOT a preview card...

but instead something different. A bright card. A VERY VERY VERY VERRRRRRYYYYYYY briiiiiiight card. haha!

I loved this American Crafts patterned paper and when I was at Wal*Mart, they had paper that matches it identically! It was sort of freaky how perfectly it matches. LOL

This little cutie pie is a hÄnglar & stÄnglar image. I just loooove these stamps! They are, unfortunately, only available in Sweden and Norway. :(

What I used: American Crafts PP, Copic markers, Wal*Mart cardstock, I think it is a PTI sentiment...it is Mary Dawn's, Stickles, Cuttlebug, Spellbinders dies, Brilliance ink.

Thanks for stopping in today!

I'm ready for sand, sea and surf...

how 'bout you? LOL

Doesn't this paper and that image make you want to run down to the beach and dip your toes into the water. Though it would be a bit too chilly here in Northern California to do that..EVER. Still...makes me yearn for summer. :)

What I used: Hanglar image, Cuttlebug, Spellbinders dies, SU CS, Creative Imaginations PP, Copic markers, white gel pen, Glossy Accents, CM wavy cutter, Amy R. sentiment from this month's release at All That Scraps...which I triple, quadruple love this set.

I sponged a bit of grey around the sea water and took my white gel pen and drew some lines and then quickly smooged it out to make it look like little whitecaps. I love how that turned out!

That's all for today, folks. Thanks for stopping by!

Thursdays=Dutch Dare Card Challenge!

Whew...I'm finally finding a way to fit everything in...kinda...sorta. And that means I can get back to my Dutch Dares! I have so much fun making these little projects and working with these ladies. :)
So this week's theme was to use a scalloped edge somewhere on your card or project. Welllll....I was going to try to pass off the snow at the bottom as a scalloped-sort-of edge...but then I realized it was bare and needed a little something up in the top corner. :)

What I used: SU CS, DCWV notecard, Me and My Big Ideas PP, Cuttlebug, Nestabilities, Hanglar image colored with Copic markers, Melissa Frances rub-on, button, MS snowflake punch, shimmery fiber thing I found in a drawer.


So that is it! Thanks for stopping by today! Maybe sometime soon I'll be able to pick back up on my blogging. I'm SO behind on reading my blogs!

Don't forget to stop by the Dutch Dare Card Challenges blog this week to try your hand at winning that cute prize this week. ;)

Lookie lookie what I got!!

I told y'all the other day that I got some fun mail! Well, PART of my fun mail were these images that Karin sent to me! Ooh y'all! Karin and I swapped some images recently and when she asked what I would like that she may have, I saw that she had some Hanglar stamps! Ooh weeee, y'all! I've only been wanting those since forEVer! I was almost in tears holding these precious pieces of paper. LOL! They're all filed away in my box to use...and use I shall!

How fun, right? They're so cute!

What I used: My swapped Hanglar image, Copic markers, white gel pen, Megabilities (i think is the name), Cuttlebug, DCWV PP, ribbon and a brad. :)

Is everyone else as BUSY BUSY as I am right now?? Oh I don't seem to be able to get anything done yet I'm constantly doing something. Argh! I love Christmas, but I think we'll need to scale back on what we do next year. Too hectic! I can't IMAGINE if we had children how unbelievably busy we'd be. I'd prolly go crazy and pull all my hair out and hide in the closet. hehe!

Thanks for stopping by today! Hope the rest of your week is well. :)
