Journey

Happy Monday.  Thanks for stopping by today.  The card I have for you this morning is my first card for Beccy's Place.  We have a wonderful set to use called Bicycle Set.  Included in this set are three great images and sentiments to go along with them.  When you leave my blog, hop on over to Beccy's Place and check out the store for this new image set and all the other beautiful designs.

I printed off this image onto Neenah Super Smooth White card stock and used BIC Markers to color in the bike and flowers.  For the back ground I used a few different Distress Inks--Forest Moss, Tea Dye, Antique Linen, Tumbled Glass, Wild Honey and Tattered Rose. I inked the edges of the image and sentiment with Bahama Blue Memento Ink.  Both the image and the sentiment are matted on a Deep Blue from HOTP.  I used two different DP from DCWV.  The card itself is 6" square and made from HOTP card stock.  I cut the circle DP with my Martha Stewart Circle Cutter.  Adding some red gems from Queen and Co. finished off the card.

I hope you liked this cute image and the card made with it.  Have a wonderful Monday and God bless y'all.

New Mercies

Good Morning friends.  I hope y'all are enjoying your Saturday.  It's 4:15 am in the morning here, so I'm sure most of you aren't up yet.  I haven't gone to bed yet.  The Sandman past right by my house again.

Today's card uses a digi from A Day for Daisies.

Isn't this just a sweet little image.  I am loving my new Neenah card stock.  I used my BIC markers on this image too.  Love, love, love it..  The sentiment is from Doodle Pantry.  They have some wonderful Christian sentiments on their site..HERE.  They also have lots of Freebies for you to try.

The card base is a nice chocolate brown from HOTP.  The DP is from DCWV.  I added some blue gems to finish it off.

Thanks so much for taking a look.  God bless y'all.

Playing Catch Up

Happy Monday y'all.  I hope all of y'all are ready for another week.  I am, but it's going to be a busy one.  I am really behind in my card making for last week.  I was super busy and didn't get all of my challenges done.  I think I am up to about 45 a week now.  It really helps me to stock up my stash for cards, but I am being over run.  I need to get some sold.  I probably should open an Etsy shop or put some on eBay.

I am going to post 5 cards here in this one post so that I can get them linked for the challenges.  I am going to be short and brief and just post the challenges they are for as well as the products, but not any details.  I will come back later in the week and post the details.  Sorry for being so short, but it's 3:20 am and I need to get to bed.
