Some Bunny

We have another challenge starting today over at Jan's Digi Stamps Challenge.  It's always an Anything Goes challenge which makes it super easy to play along.  You could be a winner to and receive some wonderful images from Jan's shop so be sure and come on over and enter your card or project.
Note:  A couple of changes will with the April challenge next month.  First of all we'll be doing two random draws...one for those using one of Jan's digi's and one for everyone else.  We'll also be going to a monthly challenge instead of twice a month.  This will give you a longer time to submit your entry.

I've used one of her new releases called Cottontail.   Isn't that a cute little bunny!  I used the pre-colored version but it also comes in black and white - along with some cool looking and pretty Easter eggs.  Be sure and check out the set of images and I know you'll fall in love with them.  I printed the image and sentiment on some linen type paper, added the little "cotton tail",  and that was about it.  Makes for a cute card though.  The patterned paper is from Lawn Fawn.

Hoot Hoot Hooray! - 2 CCC

We have a special treat today over at our 2 Crafty Critter Crazies Challenge!  Our sponsor is Donna Ellis of Creative Smiles!  Donna not only has a wonderful blog, but also did this fabulous image for us to use on our challenge today - featuring the Great Horned Owl.  It comes in the pre-colored version and also black and white - along with a sentiment too!  Thank you Donna for letting us use this fantastic image!

Come on over and play along in our challenge and you could also receive this set of The Great Horned Owl images from Donna.  The challenge is always Anything Goes and all you have to do is have some type of critter on your card or project.

I did something a little different for my hooter card today ---- Distressed.  EEK!  I haven't done that in several years I'm sure but this little guy just called for it somehow.  I used the pre-colored version because Donna had done such a great job of coloring him and I wanted to show that off.  I used some Very Vanilla card stock from Stampin' Up (not sure they even have that anymore) and some patterned papers from CTMH.  I love using the CTMH papers for distressing since it's white core.  This paper is also very old like the SU card stock.  I cut the owl out with a MFT stitched oval and added some distress ink and twine.

Thanks for stopping by..........and come on over and join in on the challenge.

Just a Pinch

I don't speak French at all or I'd lay some on you right now since that's what this little chef reminds me of.  I should have put the Eiffel Tower in the background!  I guess I could always look up something in French and throw it out there but I'm afraid y'all know me better than that.  It just wouldn't be believable with someone like me.

Anyway......I love the little chef stamps from MFT and finally broke down and got them when they had a sale the other day.  Also on this card I used a Memory Box bow die that I honestly don't think I've ever used before.  Not sure why since it's pretty cute.

This is my take on the sketch over at Sketch Saturday so I'll enter this in their challenge.

Bee-Day

Just a quick "bee-day" card for today using a set of stamps from My Favorite Things.  Using a stencil I did a little sponging with distress ink, added the hive, bees, and sentiment - and it was a done deal.

Now we just need the weather to warm up a little bit so we can see a couple of bees.

I'll enter this in the challenge at Case this Sketch (sketch),  Pixie's Crafty Workshop (snippets - I used snippets to make all the little bees and the hive too.), and AAA Cards (one corner with twist of older supplies - I used an older stencil that I love)

It's Almost Here - PIP Challenge

It's time again for another Pammie's Inky Pinkies Challenge - and it's almost time for St. Patrick's Day too!  Come on over and join in on our challenge.   We're being sponsored by Gerda Steiner Designs who has wonderful stamps and images.  It's an Anything Goes challenge so be sure and play along with your card or project.

I'm using this cute image that was provided by Gerda Steiner Designs.  Love the little cat popping up out of the hat for St. Paddy's Day.  I've colored this in Copics and Tri Blend Spectrum Noir markers, added two different green patterned papers, and a bit of twine.

Is It Summer Yet?

It's not summer yet  - and hey, it's not ever springtime yet.........However, this little gal is all ready to hit the beach (and I wish I was hitting it with her)!  It's really not too early to be thinking of summer I don't guess.  My daughter, the princess (granddaughter), and I went shopping the other day in about 34 degree weather and came home with 2 bathing suits for the princess.  Something is just wrong about putting bathing suits out in the stores when it's this cold.  Oh well..........The princess loves the swimsuits (and they'll probably be too small by the time summer gets here)!!!

I went shopping at the All Dressed Up store the other day and this was one of the images I got.  Love that image and thought it'd make some cute summertime birthday cards!  Very simple card, but just my style.  The sentiment is from Stampin' Up and it's colored with Copics.

I'll enter this in the All Dressed Up Challenge - anything goes using an All Dressed Up image and the AAA Birthday Card Challenge (Cute).

Loving the Lettering!

It's time again for another Challenge at Jan's Digi Stamps.  Be sure and come over and enter your Anything Goes project or card for a chance to win a wonderful prize from Jan's shop.

These are new to the shop and I fell head over heels in love with them!  The granddaughters are always coming in wanting a birthday card so I just hand them the box and they start digging.  They're at the age (or something) where they don't want the critters on them so much.  They're liking cards like the above.  Simple, yet gives a punch too.  So after receiving these images I proceeded to make a bunch of birthday and thank you cards.  Jan also has the word Baby image blocked out in her shop too.  I love them all!

For these cards I printed out the image twice and them popped up some of the letters with dimensional tape.  Cut them out with a MFT die and then mounted on patterned paper.  For the "thank you" card I also added a little die cut flower and a clear crystal for the center.

Check out Jan's Shop for all the wonderful images and be sure and enter our Anything Goes challenge.
