Make it Monday Challenge

So, glad to see y'all came back.  I have another card for ya tonight.  This one uses a sweet image from Saturated Canary, who is the sponsor for this week's MIM challenge.

She's colored with Crayola and die cut with Spellbinders Labels 10.  I cut a second label in Brown and offset them just a bit.  All the papers are from Recollections Bright and Jolly set from last year.  The card stock is Recollections.  I added some blue pearls from Queen and Co. to finish it off.

Thanks so much for stopping in and I'll see y'all tomorrow with the Paper A La Mode challenge for the week.  Have a great night.

I {heart} You Mom

Good Morning.  So glad you stopped in this morning.  It's dreary here this morning.  It rained all night and is supposed to rain today.  Makes you want to go back to bed and snuggle up with a good book.

The card I have for you this morning uses a Milk Coffee image.

I printed out the image onto Neenah card stock and used my BIC markers to color her in.  After coloring her I used the Nestabilities Ovals and Scalloped Ovals to die cut the image and make a mat.

I made the card base from Coral card stock from HOTP.  I then cut a panel from Aqua card stock from HOTP for a mat.  The DP is from ATD.  I die cut two ovals from the Coral card stock.  I used a strip of DP that is on the back side of the same paper.  I punched it with my Fiskars border punch.  The sentiment is from Studio G and I stamped it with Colorbox Aqua ink.  I punched out the  sentiment with a Fiskars oval scalloped punch.  I added three Prima roses in Coral and Aqua.

Thanks so much for stopping by.  I truly appreciate it.  I hope y'all have a wonderful day.  God bless.

Take Me Home

Hello there.  I hope you had a good day.  Come on in and sit a spell.  Let's take a look at what I have for y'all today.

This card uses an image from QKR Stampede.  They have some of the quirkiest and whimsical images ever.

Isn't this the cutest little turtle?  I colored this image with Spectrum Noir and cut it out.  I sponged the background with a cloud template and Tumbled Glass and Tattered Rose Distress Ink.  I tore the three layers of "dirt" and inked the edges with Vintage Photo DI then layered them on top of the sky card stock.  Everything is matted on a Kraft card base from Recollections.  I used a piece of DCWV bandanna DP to add a country feel.  The sentiment is from Annie's Little Footprints.

I was a little bit too late to enter this into the challenge for QKR, but it is going into a couple more.  

Thanks for stopping in today y'all.  Blessings and blessings to y'all.
