Wee Memories Grab Your Umbrella Challenge!!!

Hey everyone, I have a lot to do tonight so sorry for another quick post, but I wanted to share a great challenge with you that I am participating in! It is by a sweet girl named Jenny and her blog Wee Memories! The inspiration is above and here is my card! What do you think about NO STAMPING! Can u believe it? This card was very labor intensive and much better IRL, I made the umbrella template myself and scored the little ridges in the umbrella to give it a little texture then punched the butterflies and drew the little bodies on with a gel pen. I rarely make cards without a sentiment but I just couldnt find a place that I liked for it so sorry, no sentiment :) It was to read "May the simple joys of life be yours" so you can just pretend its on there somewhere ha ha! Anyhow, back to my point, please go "shower" her blog with your entries and your comments !

Only three more followers!!!

Hey guys, guess what, I only need three more followers and I will post the first challenge!!! Hint.... its a color inspiration challenge! So... tell your friends to add as my followers so I can hurry up and start giving things away!!!  I am loving the warmer weather we have been having. I have been able to start organizing my crafty room and spring cleaning without freezing, so in honor of that I made this card! I love the cloud stamps, they are Sassafrass Lass!

Paper Crafts Magazine Go To Sketch Challenge and Jazzy Paper Designs Challenge!

Hey everyone, here is a card I made for TWO challenges! Can you believe it? I NEVER combine challenges, I also dont enter a challenge that I dont have specific cards for, I hate that, i'd feel like im cheating ha ha!  This one is just too hard to pass up the challenge though since one is a sketch and the other (Tenia's) is a color challenge, I thought it would be a great opportunity to try to do both in one card. So... here is my submission, if you want to read about Paper Craft Magazines sketch challenge you can go HERE and if you would like to visit the lovely Jazzy Paper Designs challenge go HERE.

Embellish Fabric Color Challenge!!!

Hey everyone, just wanted to share my next challenge card ! It is an Embellish magazine challenge and you can check it out HERE! I have got to tell you that this challenge threw me for a loop :) I had a hard enough time with the colors but to add in fabric was challenging ha ha! I used some satin fabric and to get the petal look I burned the edges while holding it gathered in the center. So with that said here it is!

EBTKS Challenge FABRIC!!!

Here is my submission to the EBTKS Fabric challenge! I used the striped fabric then I made the flower from ribbon and cut and heat sealed pieces of ribbon for the leaves! HERE is the link to the challenge if you want to check it out!

My Card for Moxie Fab World Tuesday Trigger!

You can read about it HERE I met the talented ladies of "Moxie" at CHA and they couldnt be sweeter! So ladies, thank you so much!

Today....

Yay I won a challenge! I enter everything and NEVER win so I was quite surprised when I got the email!!!  It is from the sweetest persons blog, Tenia Nelson, you can see her blog HERE she is a dear! My prize is for digital stamps from HERE, Simple Doodles Digi Stamps, they are super cute so check it out!  Also I am working on submitting to card magazines so I am doing halloween and fall things and you wouldnt believe how hard it is to find props like candies and things for halloween in March!!! I ended up getting packs of Skittles and seperating out the orange, green and purple then I got lucky and found a few lollipops that were halloween colors thrown in with some pink and yellow too! So... moral of the story is that if you need halloween colors in March go for the Skittles :) I cant post this without a picture so here is one of my recent cards that I submitted for publication. Hopefully my luck continues!!!

Papertrey Ink Blog Hop!!!

Here is my card for Papertrey Ink's Blog Hop! Check out HERE for more info!!! My card was inspired by THIS CARD by Maile Belles :) Mine is supposed to look like a giant button but I dont have a circle punch so its hand cut and I dont have a hole punch so I used rhinestones instead :)
