Christmas Blessings

I created this Christmas card for the latest challenge over at 

Holly Jolly Christmas Challenges

Challenge #79

Theme - Non-tradtional Colours

Sponsored by QKR Stampede

I used the image Giving Bear which can be found HERE in the QKR Stampede shop.

I had fun colouring a Christmas card in my favourite colour (pink).  This Giving Bear is just so cute.
Of course I kept my card CAS and added just a bit of ribbon to make it pop.

I hope I've inspired you to play along with us at Holly Jolly this week.

Happy Summer to you

I created this card for the latest challenge over at 

Craft Your Passion (CYP)

Challenge #326

Theme - Always Anything Goes

Sponsored by Crafty Sentiments

I used the image Let's See which can be found HERE
in the Crafty Sentiments shop.

I had fun colouring this cute image up for this summer-y card.
It's been a wonderful summer here in Southern Ontario
and I'm sad to see September right around the corner.
This card should make me feel summer is still here,
 at least for a little while.

I hope I've inspired you to play along with us at Craft Your Passion (CYP)  this week.

Ice Cream for you...

Theme - Summertime

Sponsored by Paper Nest Dolls

I used the image Ice Cream Emma which can be found HERE

in the Paper Nest Dolls shop.

I coloured this image up with copics.
She's eating Mint Chocolate chip Ice cream!
This is such a fun image and I really enjoyed creating this card.

Challenge #40

Theme - Always Anything Goes

Sponsored by Bugaboo

I used the image Deacon Bugs which can be found HERE
in the Bugaboo shop.

I coloured this image up with pretty basic boy-ish colours and double matted it...added a bit of string from my stash and it was done.  I love this little image and haven't decided what I'm going to use this card for.  It could be for just about any occasion.

I hope I've inspired you to play along with us at Lil' Patch of Crafty Friends this week.

I love my Mummy...

Challenge #34 - Theatrical

I used the image Sprite of Hibiscus which can be found HERE in the 

Aurora Wings Etsy Shop.

Don't you just LOVE this sweet image?  

I coloured this image with copics and created a double mat around the image for a bit of drama.

My sentiment is from a Close to My Heart Acrylic stamp set, 

and I figure it's perfect for the theatrical theme here.

Santa Photos

I created this scrapbook layout for the latest challenge over at 

Holly Jolly Christmas Challenges

Here's a close up of the image I coloued for this page

Challenge #78

Theme - Anything but a Card

Sponsored by Dr. Digi

I used the image Selfie Santa which can be found HERE in the Dr. Digi shop.

I coloured the image with copics and created a title block on my computer.
I pulled some 5x7 Santa photos from a frame and added them to this layout.
I did computer journaling and added it as well.
Those of you who know me, know that I rarely do a layout
without adding journaling, and usually it's handwritten.
I'm pleased with getting this layout done for Thomas' scrapbook, as
it's been a long time since I created a scrapbook page/layout.

I hope I've inspired you to play along with us at Holly Jolly this week.

Theme - Always Anything Goes

Sponsored by Lacy Sunshine

I used the image Reggie - Let's BBQ which can be found HERE in the Lacy Sunshine shop.

I coloured this image with copics and kept my card CAS.
I used the red/white checked ribbon as an accent (which looks like a tablecloth to me)
I thought the HAPPY SUMMER sentiment was perfect for this card.

I hope I've inspired you to play along with us at Craft Your Passion (CYP)  this week.
