Musically Challenged #21

Hi again.  I have completed another card and this one is for the Musically Challenged challenge #21.  The challenge is to use a Song with a Girl's Name.  There are so many songs out there with a girl's name in that you really have a lot to chose from.  I decided to use one of my most favorite songs, "Beth" by KISS.  I have always loved this song.  So, with that song in mind, I searched my digi stash and the closest I could come to an image for this song was "Bethany" by Cuddlebug Cuties by Anna Stillwell.  

Since she had an Easter basket, I figured I better make her an Easter card. :)

Thanks for stopping by today.  I may be back with another card tonight so stay tuned.  Have a great night and God bless.

Be Yourself

TGIF.  It's been a long week here for us.  Everyone is feeling better around here.  My father in law is still in the hospital.  They have determined that he has something more than pneumonia going on.  His sugar is way out of whack too. 

I'm so glad that y'all decided to drop in for a visit.  I really appreciate the time you spend looking at my creations.  It really means a lot to me.

The card I have made for today is an Easel card.  I love these, but don't make them too often.

I used one of Anna's image from Cuttlebug Cuties to make this monochrome black and white card.

Thanks again for stopping in to see me.  I hope y'all have a great weekend.  God bless.

Mojo Monday #278

Good Evening friends.  At least it's evening here in NE PA.  It's cold too.  No temperatures higher than 25 for the weekend.  Man, I'm ready for some warmer weather.  Not hot mind ya, but warmer.

The card I have for y'all today uses the same DP (DCWV Glam Girl) and color scheme as the previous one.  I just love that DP.

I started with a 6" square card base from Gina K.  Each layer is 1/4" smaller than the first.  I used a beautiful shade of purple, but for some reason it looks blueish in the picture.  The Purple, Turquoise and Pink card stocks are from Recollections.  The white is Gina K heavy base weight and layering weight white.  The cute girl image is from Cuddlebug Cuties.  She has some of the most gorgeous girl digis.  Jump over and check her out when y'all have a chance.  She blesses us with free ones every now and again.  I colored the image with my colored pencils and OMS.  I cut her out and used pop dots for dimension.  The sentiment stamp is from TCP and I used my Nestabilities to die cut the sentiment and the scalloped circle.  I added some gems to finish off the card.  

I followed the Mojo Monday Sketch for this week and after I put the card together, I realized I should have made the white panel a little smaller so that the banner strips showed better.  They are there, but at the bottom and only the tails show.

Thanks for stoppin' in today and I hope y'all have a blessed day.
