SOG Color Inspiration Challenge

I received my Some Odd Girl stamp Sunny Mae the other day and I just had to ink her up.  I love this image.  She is so summery. I ended up making 2 cards.  I messed up on the 1st face and you know how everything else is just perfect and you think I will just add a few freckles...well that did not go to good and when I tried to remove them they smeared her touched up eyes.  Darn it!  Onto the next one.  I actually like her better anyway.  I did case a few of the SOG design teams ideas and meshed them all together and this is what I came up with.  Enjoy.

Here I go, another challenge to enter. Yay!!  I am trying to pick at least one challenge to do a week.  Then maybe I can work up to a few a week.  Here in Colorado it's been in the upper 80's and 90's.  I must say I am a wimp when it comes to the heat.  I love air-conditioning.

I whipped up this little Greeting Farm sketch challenge card last night.  I finally played with my Cheeky Geeky.  She is so much fun!
I used Jillibean Soup paper called Blossom Soup in a 6x6 pad, then a little Jillibean sentiment and some doodlebug twine.  I colored her with my handy dandy Copic markers and paper pieced the dress.

SC Challenge 18 Bookmarks

It has been forever since I posted last.  The end of the school year just flew by.  We had 2 birthday's to celebrate here.  My daughter turned 9 and my hubby the big "40".  I surprised them both by having his parents come out to surprise them.  Needless to say I got them both good.

My challenge I am doing today is from Saturated Canary. I just love their digi images. Check them out here http://saturatedcanary.blogspot.com My crafting partner in crime Rachel got me hooked.

The digi I choose to do is called Hipster.  She is so my daughter.  Originally I had planned on making this into my daughter's birthday card. Instead it turned into a bookmark for all of her summer reading.

Now that school is out I am really hoping that I can play in my craft room more and get going on more challenges.  Until later Happy Summer and Happy Crafting.

This is SC Hipster.  She is colored in Copic markers.  The flower stickers are a hodge podge of a pile I found in my craft room.  I laminated her with 3M self laminating 4x6 photo thing I had.  I figured she would last longer laminated than not.  Polka dot ribbon from Michaels.

Kraftin Kimmie Challenge 123-Tag Time

I thought I better get busy and try another challenge.  I recently had some "Happy Mail" delivered and low and behold I had some fun new Kraftin Kimmie's to try. I have the "Going Places" set too.  I think that will be next on my list.  I better get my room back together soon.  It looks as though a twister came in and messed it all up again.  I really wish I could just snap my fingers and everything would just go back into its place.  I stamped "Dandy Lion"on a random white tag and played around with my Tim Holtz inks last night. I made quite the mess. Dandy was also Sparkly Fluffed with the color "sugar", around her hair and dress as well as the dandy lion. The saying came from a stamp at Hobby Lobby.  I just love that saying. Now off to see what I have in the fridge for lunch.

The Greeting Farm Challenge Sketch #9

After some "gentle prodding" from a dear friend (wink*you know who you are) I am entering not one but 2 challenges this week.  It was a lot of fun and hopefully I can do a few of these more often. It worked out well that Spring Break was this week.  So here is my Surfer Anya from The Greeting Farm.

Tiddly Inks Challenge #83 Birthday Bash

My dear sweet friend Rachel hosted a play date with me yesterday ( yes the kids came too!) and we decided to do the Tiddly Inks Birthday Bash Challenge.  I just love Tiddly Inks.  Christy Croll  (the owner and creator of everything Tiddly (I borrowed that line.) is having her birthday bash and celebration coming in April.  Be sure to check out the Tiddly Inks web site and challenge blog. I will practice how to add the link here in a bit.  If that won't work I will have to contact my IT department (hey Rachel, I may be calling you later.)  Have a great rest of the week and I'm going to enjoy the last few days of Spring Break.

Everyone Loves Wryn

So far I am not making my New Year's Resolution to post something once a week but here are 2 Wryn digi's from TiddlyInks. She is adorable. I have almost the entire set and I need to get coloring. I used these cards for birthdays this past month.  Now I need to get cracking on my April cards.  Till later...Happy Spring and Crafting.
