Flamingo Smile with Doodle Pantry

Hello all and Happy Tuesday!  So, finals are over and now comes the dreaded cold.  It seems to happen after every semester!  It's like my body says "the stress is gone, so lets get ill."  Anyway, today I'm sharing a super quick card made using a pre-colored image by Doodle Pantry.

Is this Flamingo just adorable or what?!  It also comes in black & white, and purple!  I placed her on some Shery K papers, and added a sentiment from Create with TLC.  You also have plenty of time to enter this months challenge and you will receive a FREEBIE set!  This is going out to one of the strongest women out there!!

This meets the following challenges:

• NMWC - things with Wings
• Sentimental Sundays - For a Special Woman
• Corrosive Challenge - My Sentiments Exactly
• A Gem of a Challenge - Things with Wings

This meets the following challenges:

• Copic Marker Europe - Girls Aloud
• Paper Crafting Journey - Anything goes
• Divas By Design - Anything Goes

Be Happy with Doodle Pantry

Hello all and Happy Thursday!  Today I'm sharing a card that was inspired by Cely's card here.  I'm using Flip Flops from Doodle Pantry and the sentiment comes with the set.

Nope, doesn't look the same huh?  Well, first, I don't have the pretty paper she used (of course, I love my Shery K papers just fine - just not the same feel), and then my flip flops didn't fit, so I ended up fussy cutting and popping up on smaller circles.  I also didn't have a cute charm, so I put the sentiment in it's place.  This already went out in the mail (week 4 - card 4....need to send one out this week!)

This meets the following challenges:

• LEJ Designs - Summer is Coming
• Paper Minutes - Neon Colors
• Make it Monday - Always anything Goes
• Crafty Bloggers Network - Bingo (Flowers, Stamps, Stitching)

Cute Dragon ATC with Bugaboo Stamps

Hello all and Happy Tuesday.  I'm here again with another ATC (I've actually been enjoying these little cards!) using a new release from Bugaboo Stamps.

This is Cute Dragon.  What's great about ATC's is being able to use those smaller pieces of DP that never make it into a full size card.

I popped him up for a little dimension.  That's it for today.  I don't have any more final exams, but I do have a rather challenging paper to finish...or start and then finish.

Splish Splash ATC with Bugaboo Freebie

Hello all and Happy Monday!  It's finals week and I've been running around like a mad woman!  Today I'd like to share an ATC to share Bugaboo's FREEBIE FRIDAY image:

Plus, this week at Catch the Bug, the challenge is ANYTHING GOES!

Also, he fits perfectly for this weeks Wicked Wednesday challenge: Sun & Surf.  Oh, and the close up is to show how the top ric-rak is on pop dots - it really does make a cute effect in real life.  OK, off to study!  Thanks for stopping by.

Happy Birthday Bean

Hello all.  Today I want to share something very special:

Beanie is 6 years old today!  Setting all bias aside, she has got to be the BEST 6 year old around!  OK, I'm a little biased, but I'm so proud of my little lady.  She is super smart, polite, beautiful inside and out, and the best big sister ever.  God knew exactly who to bless us with.  Have a wonderful day, and don't forget to eat a cupcake!

Pear-fect Day with Doodle Pantry

Hello and Happy Wednesday!  Today I'd like to share a new release from Doodle Pantry!

What can I say?  I LOVE this happy little pear-eatin' worm!  I was trying to put that pretty, ripe color you see on some pears...well, I tried anyway.  I also attempted to make grass and clouds, which I think I did ok on those.  Hope you stop by to see all the latest images available!
