Magnolia

Last weekend ... no, wait almost 2 weekends ago, I made this bday card for my girlfriend who only recieved it yesterday!  SORRY!  I also used it for a contest on Splitcoast and the sketch was beautiful.  I didn't win but that's ok!!  I also used it for a Magnolia challenge that asked us to make our own flowers.  Ummm - ok sorry but I like storebought.  BROL!!  hee hee!!

Digital Delights Gallery

Sorry for the blurry picture.  My DH is hunting so took the camera with him and I can't hold my Blackberry still enough!  This is my first digi stamp I've used and I got him from Digital Delights Gallery from Freebie Friday! I am so shocked how well the Copics worked.  They have some very cute images and this card goes out to my SIL and brother who have just had their 2nd baby.  Congrats Mike, Sami & Journey and welcome Meakin!

I put white flocking on the cloud and glitter on his wings.  Much sweeter IRL!

Whiff of Joy Challenge #48 & A Spoon Full of Sugar

I LOVE how my card turned out! hee hee!  Isn't it nice to surprise yourself sometimes too?  I really liked the sketch over at WOJ and knew I HAD to try it out.  Although, I will say I had to cut more then my fair share of paper to make it work right.  My image is a bit bigger then what the sketch seemed to request but it was too late when I realized that.  LOL!  I really like how many layers there are ........  it was tricky.

*********Edited after post********* I forgot to mention this is also for A Spoon Full of Sugar challenge for Fall inspired projects.  Good thing I have lists!  I just need to check them more.  LOL!

My DP's are Cosmo Cricket, Prima flowers, EK Success border punch, QK flourish punch, Hobby House charms.  Hope you like it!

Friday Sketchers 70

This week at Friday Sketchers is host, Jacque's sketch.  I chose the new Henrietta stamp from Stamping Bella.  What a cutie! 

I used an EK Success leaf punch (love it!), Copics to color, Spica Pens on her hair, Nesties, MS border punches, charms & spacers from Hobby House, Quickutz cherry with glitter & dimensional gloss, gloss on the cherries on the bottom of her dress as well, OH and in the leaves & cherries in her hair.  OH yes and my CB folder too.
