Fussy & Fancy Friday Challenge!

This week is my last week for Fussy and Fancy Friday Design Team. I have decided to step down because I am so busy with Peddlers Pack and stamp club. Its really time consuming to try to keep up with comments on all the entries.
This week we can do whatever we want and the challenge for the entries is to CASE one of our cards.
This is an adorable new little Magnolia I just recieved. She has her little shovel so I printed out the sentiment Whats the dirt??. I thought it was kind of cute. Maybe dorky but hey who cares right?
I did this card for a few challenges but as always we have to do the cards ahead so lets see what it still qualifys for:
Magnolia Stamp Lovers Anything goes!
Do late for Just Magnolia flowers galore.
Oh well!
I used some pretty flowery paper that I found at Craft Warehouse when we went to the beach. Also I combined some fun flowers and some new ribbon.
Happy Stamping!

Wee Stamps!

This is another card we did at the beach. I think this little girl is Adorable. We totally cased this from someone and again I wish I could give credit to them but I cant.
This is a digital stamp from Wee Stamps. They have some of the most adorable stamps ever. She is getting more and more in for every occasion and holiday. I think she is either thinking of going to rubber or already has. Her images are Fantastic.
All other papers and stamps are stampin up. The ribbon is from Peddlers Pack and we used a Martha Stewart punch. She is colored with copic markers, cut out with spellbinders and added a little glitter.
If you are traveling Digital stamps are the way to go. The take up alot less space. But you still need all those sentiments.
Happy Stamping!

Meet Mavis. She is a stamp I have had for along time and never used. She is from stamping bella. I think she is so cute. I stamped her and colored her with copic markers. Then added a little bit of stickles. The sentiment is from Stampin Up. The papers are from American Crafts. I used oval and scalloped ovals from spellbinders. The pearls are stampin up that I colored with copic markers to match.
Happy Stamping!

Wheres The Picnic!

Hello!

Happy 4th of July Bear!

This adorable little bear is from Peddlers pack. The flag he is holding is from them also
I colored him with copic markers and the flag with glitter gel pens. I made two cards. The other one I colored his whole outfit with the glitter gel pens and it turned out the best but the pens dont always look as good in a photo so I went with this picture.
The Spellbinders die I used is Fleur De Lis Rectangles. The designer papers are from We R Memory Keepers Yankee Doodle line. I used 4 different designs with real red, brilliant blue and white cardstock. Then of course I had to add some dew drops.
Here are the challenges I made this card for:

Fuzzy Wuzzy Challenge A recipe three papers two buttons and Blue ( I hope my dew drops can qualify as buttons). That might be pushing it!

CC Designs Cupcake Brigitta!

This is my 1st stamp from CC Designs. You can find them at All That Scraps. They have all kinds of stuff there. Tons of stamps, ribbons, flowers, papers. Lots of Magnolias. They also have lots of digi stamps. I think this stamp is even a digi stamp now. I dont think it was until right after I bought this of course.
I made this card for a few challenges:
CR84FN- picture inspiration, lt pink, medium green, neutral
This card seems a little more simple than normal but I just love the paper and didnt want to cover it up. The sketch is pretty simple but I had to add some flowers. The papers are more from The Girls Paperie line. I just love this line. Roses, pinks, yellows, gingham. All my favorites so whats not to love right?
Here is the sketch from Crop Stop that I followed for this challenge:


Thanks for coming by and looking!
Did you see my flowers falling from the sky? I have been wanting to do that for a long time and found out how by accident yesterday!!!!
Happy Stamping!

This is another card from the beach. Again I CASED it from somewhere so long ago that I dont remember from where. If its you please let me know and I will post your info. This is a Mo Manning digital image. She is so cut. Alice had this adorable strawberry ribbon and we used a Papertrey ink set for the strawberry and the sentiment is from Verve. It is such a little set from Verve but I love the set. It is perfect for circles. It has I think 6 sentiments. I colored her with copic markers and made the flowers with punches.

2nd Post today!

I almost forgot to post this card. I made it for this weeks challenge over at sketch saturday. I love how there are all these challenges out there for sketches. I dont know what I would do without them. I would probably just use the same design over and over. How boring, right???
So this beautiful image is digital. It was already colored and everything. How cool is that? I wanted something quick for stamp club invites because once again they are going out a little late. Also I found this image and my mother in law loves hummingbirds. So I am making a batch for her also. So I am using 24 of these little guys. The pansy paper is another one I purchased at Craft Warehouse. I love pansys so I grabbed a punch. I used Pear Pizzaz and Rose Red stampin up cardstock. Added some glitter, dew drops and ribbon. The ribbon is discontinued stampin up called Burgundy, I just checked on the paper and it is K&CO SW Spring Blossoms Pansies.
The digital image is from Fred She Said. She has some GREAT stuff and you can click on her image on my sidebar to go check her out.
Happy Stamping!

Fussy and Fancy Friday!

A co-worker asked me to make a fathers day card for her. She said she wanted it to have something to do with fishing and she has two little girls. I found several digi stamps. Some had a father and some, some had a father and a daughter. But then I found this one with a father fishing with two kids so I thought it was perfect.
I used some Graphic 45 papers from the A Proper Gentlemen Collection. The two different papers are from one piece front and back. I used the sketch from sketch Wednesday. This is my card for Fussy and Fancy friday this week. It is supposed to be a boy/man card. The stamp I used is a digi stamp you can find at Digi Dis Downloads. Also over at digital tuesdays challenge this week is animals so this digi card fits right in over there.
Also over at Fussy and Fancy Friday they are looking for a new person or people. Not sure how many to be on their design team. I am not going to be on it anymore after the end of this month. I am so busy with stamp club and designing for Peddlers Pack, I just dont have time anymore. So if you are interested just join their challenge this week and put DT behind your name to show you are interested.
Happy Stamping!

Another Magnolia Card!

My Card
You know there are some many great card samples out there. Since I have started my blog I have been mostly creating my own designs using the challenges that are out there. There are so many to choose from. Sometimes you just have to case someone elses card because you cant help yourself. That is the case with this card. Unfortunately, I dont know who I cased it from but here is the original:
Cased card!
I changed the Tilda, papers and sentiment. So it is different somewhat but if you recognize this card, I love it and thank you for doing such a great job. I wish I could have used the same papers but couldnt find them. I think they were discontinued from last year.
l used the new papers I love from The Girls Paperie. They are alot like the ones that were out last year about this time.
Also the sentiment is from Verve.
Happy Stamping!

Another Beach Card w/a Magnolia!

I really like how this card turned out. We had stopped at Craft Warehouse on the way to the beach to see how their sale was going. I found this pretty paper and then got the green and blue bazzill to go with it. We were trying out the cricut Lacy Labels cartridge to see how it would make white doilies and then I was showing Alice how the layering worked so I just used the three colors of cardstock I had purchased at Craft Warehouse. We loved the way it looke and decided to use it. Since I bought it to match this paper it out turned out really pretty. I think it was both of our favorite cards for the weekend.
For the Challenge at ABC this week is V for variety. You have to have three different kinds of embellishments. I have flowers. dew drops and ribbon.
I think that is the only challenge I really qualify for this week.
Happy Stamping
