Last post of the month

Howdy once again.  This is my last month of the month and I made 20.  I am trying real hard to have at least 20 post each month.

This is one of my favorite images for the month.  It is by From The Heart.  They have some amazing images.  This is the monthly challenge image.  I have told myself a dozen times this month, that I needed to make a card with it, but once again, I waited until the last minute. 

I layered the top flower square three times.  The others are only layered twice.  I added a ribbon and some pearls.

I am going to use this card in the following challenges:
   From The Heart - Monthly challenge
   Glitter N Sparkle - Ribbon
   Casual Friday - 3 of Something
   
Have a great evening.

Spring Day

Hello again.  This is the last one for tonight.

I made this card a couple of weeks ago.  It is one of Samantha Walkers' new interactive cards.  I had some trouble with the slider but I did get it to work.  I wish there was a way to use the brads and have them closed looser.  I might play with it another day.

Once again, have a great evening.

Whimsie Doodles

Hello again.  My sister isn't feeling good today so I had to play by myself.  I decided to playing with the Whimsie Doodle's challenge.  It was April Showers/water.  I had these two fish from Whimsie Doodles' so I just had to use them.

I didn't want the whole background to be of water so I added the orange stripe.  I printed the sentiment on my computer.

Have a great night.


Strawberry Season

Hello.  I hope everyone is having a great sunny day.  It is rainy here, but the sun has come out for short periods of time.

It is strawberry season.  I just had to make some strawberry cards.  This is the first one.  It is the basic strawberry card from Silhouette Online and then I used the Strawberry Fairy from Meljen's Designs.  I just love both of them together.

I also added some glitter on the strawberry.

I am going to use this in the following challenges:
   Tuesday Throwdown - Sparkle
   Die Cuttin Divas - Girly
   Creative Card Crew - Girly
   Brown Sugar Challenge - Anything Goes

Have a great evening.

Meljen's Designs

Hello.  I decided to combine some challenges today using one of my Meljen's Designs' images.  This little beaver has been on my stamps to play with list for some time.

My husband is an electrician and he does most of the paperwork for his company so I am going to have the card sitting on his desk when he gets home. 

I really liked how well he colored up.  I added a swirl texture to the base card.  Twine across the top of the card to hold the charm and dimensional tape to the back of the beaver. 

I am using the card for the following challenges:
   Meljen's Designs - Metal embellishments
   Repeat Impressions - Masculine
   Clear It Out - Animals with striped paper
   Sketch Saturday - Sketch #307

Off to get a few things done in the kitchen.  Hopefully I will be back later with another card.  Have a great afternoon.

Ladybugs

Hello, happy Thursday.  One more get up until the weekend.

I love ladybugs so when I saw the monthly progressive challenge at Imagine That, I was so happy.  I love the rainboots.  I purchased several more so you will be seeing others.  I also used some of the digital paper from Imagine That.  I then added a ladybug button and ribbon and my card was ready to go.

I followed the sketch on Sketch Saturday.  I really liked how quick and easy it was to put together.  You might be seeing it again, too.  I am also going to use the card in the Digi Sketch Challenge (floral).

Off to make a few more of these cards.

Meljen's Designs

Howdy, once again.   I really wanted to enter the Meljen's Designs' challenge.  However, it is an Easter theme and I really didn't want to make an Easter card since Easter has come and gone.  I had the Little Puddle Duck sitting on my desk and I decided to use him.  Duckies can be used for Easter and since it is spring, it isn't unusual to get rain.  I added some flowers and butterflies.  I think it came out pretty good.

Have a good night and I will hopefully be back tomorrow.
