I Dig You

Couldn't let the weekend go by without another post!

Have you seen all the fun that's been going on over on the Passionate Paper Creations Facebook Group?  So much inspiration, fun, and so many awesome encouraging fellow crafters all in one place!

They were having some Tiddly Inks fun this weekend (I'm a little late to the party) but I still wanted to play along! And since Summer is in full swing- I thought this image was appropriate (& has me wishing I was on the beach!)



I had tons of fun coloring this "My Beach Boy" image (& he's only $1 right now!!)- totally reminds me of my son playin' in the sand!

Thanks for stopping by- enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Birthday Cacti

Back again!

This time with a card I made using one of the images I colored during Kathy Racoosin's 30 Day Coloring Challenge!
I had an itch to do some watercoloring, and I just love using distress inks with that technique.  And since I live in the desert I thought watercolored cacti would be appropriate! ;)

I layered and masked the cactus from this Hero Arts, Stamp Your Own Cactus set, and created this little desert scene.  The orange bloom is from the Simon Says Stamp Succulents set.



I kept everything one layer except for the flower (because I forgot to add it while I was stamping & masking- oops!) Finished it off with a sentiment and sequins of course!

Thanks for swinging by!

Baby Shower Congrats!

Happy Wednesday!

We attended a baby shower for some friends over the weekend.  They're expecting a baby boy in September & of course I had to make them a sweet card!

I love using this The Greeting Farm stamp for expecting mommies :)


(bummer, it doesn't look like the stamp/digi is still available!)

Thanks for stopping by!

You're the COOLEST!

It's Tuesday which means it's time for a new Tiddly Inks Challenge!

and it's an easy one- ANYTHING GOES!

Since summer is in full swing and cool treats are all around, I thought Sweet Treat Wryn was a perfect match!


(sentiment from My Favorite Things- Penguin Paradise)

So go check out all the details on the Tiddly Inks Challenge blog and join in for your chance to win some Tiddly Inks images for yourself! :)

Thanks Baby!

It's never too late for Thank Yous right? Hope so, because I finally got around to finishing up some thank you cards from when my baby girl was born (3 months ago!)

I used the super sweet elephant and giraffe from WPlus9's Unforgettable & Party Animal set for a quick set of cards to send out.





I have a few of other cards that I've been working on the past couple of days to share later this week too!

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy 4th of July!

Swingin' By...Hi!

Just SWINGING in quick to share a card with one of Tiddly Inks newer images, Wryn Swinging By!



I colored this on one of the days from Kathy Racoosin's (The Daily Marker) 30 Day Coloring Challenge! Super quick to put together a card when images are ready to go! :)

Happy 4th to those in the US- Enjoy your holiday weekend! :)
