Catch the Bug Sketch Challenge

Good Morning.  It's Sunday morning and I have a little card for y'all.  I hope y'all are enjoying your weekend.  

This is what happens when you have a nine year old constantly chattering in your ear.  When I put this card together, she was showing me something on the internet and I wasn't paying full attention.  The image should actually be turned the other way so that the ladybug is upside down.  But, it works this way too.

Thanks so much for stopping in to see me today.  I hope y'all have a wonderful day.  God bless.

Hebrews 13:2

Welcome back to my last post of the evening.  Thanks for hanging in there with me.

The last card for tonight uses a set of images that I received in a swap about a year ago.  I have been going through some of my stash and weeding out.  I found these pretty flower images and decided to make a card from them.

I matted the image and sentiment onto a soft green Colorbok card stock.  The card base is the same green.  The sentiment is from Rubber Monger and I stamped it in Bamboo Leaves Memento ink over top of the flower image.  The DP is from American Crafts.  I have no idea why I picked an Asian lettering paper, but it looked really good with the colors of the images. I added a doily from my stash behind the images.  The tan die cut behind the sentiment is from my friend Jan.  That beautiful butterfly is also from Jan.  Adding some light green gems from Queen and Co finished off the card.

Thank you so much for coming back to look at all my work tonight.  I truly appreciate it.  I pray God richly bless each and every one of you.

Bella and Skipper Card

Thanks for stopping by today.  I have one more card for y'all this Sunday morn.

I used the progressive freebie from Imagine That to make this card.  If you haven't played along with Kris' challenges, each month that you play you will receive the next image or images.  You do have to purchase the first one to start playing, but after that, they are sent to you as long as you play along.

I started this card by printing off the image on GP card stock and using my colored pencils.  After coloring the image, I used chalks to make the sky.  It's hard to see in the picture, but there are some pinks and yellows as well as blues in the sky.  I made a black card base and matted my image and the flower panel on the same black Recollections card stock.  The flower DP is DCWV and the polka dot DP is Colorbok.  I used a strip of light blue card stock from Colorbok across the middle.  I didn't add any embellishments or a sentiment.  I am still thinking of a sentiment for this one.  I have a few cultivating in my mind, but haven't decided on one yet.  I will add it when I decide on the perfect one.

Thanks for stopping in today.  I truly appreciate it.  Have a wonderful day and God bless y'all.

Just Buzzin' By Card

Thanks for coming back for my third card for today.  I so appreciate  all the support y'all give to me.  

I have a file of unknown digis that I made when I first started collecting free digis from online.  I didn't know enough then to rename the digi with the artist's name so I have no idea where they came from.  I finally got smart though and started filing them by artist.  This is one of those unknown digis.

I colored this one with Chromatix pens from American Crafts.  I added some glitter pens to the heart and the bees.  I used a Fiskars oval template to cut out this little beehive.  I made a card base from SU Old Olive card stock and added a piece of DP from my stash bin.  I cut a scalloped border from a piece of yellow card stock from Recollections.  The flourishes are from my stash and I used an EK Success mini 5 petal flower punch to make the flowers.  I added small green gems from Queen and Co. to make the flower centers.  I used a Zig black pen to write the sentiment.

Thanks again for stopping in.  I don't know if I will get to make any more cards tonight because I will be gone most of the evening.  But, you never know..

Have a wonderful Friday and God bless y'all.
