Flutter By Wednesday 94

Hi everyone!  It's Wednesday and that means another Flutter By Wednesday for you!  Unfortunately, I didn't get my card made.  I had planned on making it this morning, but ended up in the Ememrgency Room with my son.  We just got home and he is feeling better now...he'll have to be home the rest of the week.  This is the first day he's missed in 2 years.  :O(

If you'd like to play along, we;d love to have you!  It's an open week, so just use a butterfly, fairy or angel on your project. 

Be sure to check out the rest of the design team's creations! Ann, Cassie, Chris, Christine, Danni, Harriet, Heather, Jodi, Karen, Kimberly, Kris, Kristie, Michelle, Nancy, Nicola & Pam.

Doodle Dragon Studios Challenge #2 - Sketch

Hi people!  So sorry to be posting this a day late, but we had technical difficulties yesterday on the DDS Challenge Blog and I didn't want to post here until it was live on the challenge blog!  So here is Doodle Dragon Studios Challenge #2!  It's a sketch challenge...made by me!  :O)  I did a CAS sketch for you this time and I hope you love it!  We had an amazing turn out on challenge #1...over 60 players!  How awesome is that???  We would love to see YOU this time!  Just use any DDS image and this sketch to join in!  Dustin is always handing out freebies, just check his blog HERE!

I used one of the upcoming releases (Thursday, January 28th)...Lil Devil Monkey.  Isn't he the sweetest...errr, naughtiest?  :O)  I thought he would be perfect to let my hubby know that I'm "hot 4 him"! 

Have a wonderful day everyone!

Thanks so much for chasing the butterflies last week!  Please e-mail me your address and I will get your candy out to you! 

 

This week's challenge is to use any type of embossing on your card along with a butterfly, fairy or angel!  Add a direct link in Mr. Linky on the FBW post so we can see what you created!  :O)  I stamped baby butterflies on the green part of the paper and embossed them...The label nestie is also embossed, but you can't see it very well in the photo.  The paper is all one sheet folded up {like I used to do in middle / high school} to create the 2 pockets.

I hope you enjoy my card this week! Be sure to check out the rest of the design team's creations and show them some love! Ann, Cassie, Chris, Christine, Danni, Harriet, Heather, Jodi, Karen, Kimberly, Kris, Kristie, Michelle, Nancy, Nicola & Pam.

Doodle Dragon Designs Blog Hop!

Welcome to the first Doodle Dragon Studio Blog Hop! 

If you've arrived from Charlotte's blog, you're headed in the right direction. If not, start at the beginning on Dustin's blog .

We're very excited to announce a new challenge blog for Doodle Dragon Studio images, and the first challenge is TODAY! To kick it all off, let's have a blog hop featuring some new digis. Make sure you leave comments on the design team blogs along the way, because three lucky commenters will be randomly drawn to win all five of the new digis Dustin is sharing today! Then, check out the first challenge for another chance to win new Doodle Dragon digis.


So what are you waiting for?  Start hoppin' and we'll see you on the challenge blog!

Here is a card I made with one of the new digi stamps.  It started out to be a pink and brown card until I started coloring it.  Then I though why do I have to make him/her brown...it's a sweet lil fairy bear, right?  And my purple bear was born!  :O)  I'd love to hear your comments!

I am finally posting my challenge for Mercy's Tuesday Sketch Challenge #52!  Would you believe I got this done last Wednesday and I'm only just posting it?  Bad me!  I love Mercy's sketches and I love these little cuties by CC Designs too!  :O)  I am too happy with the way it turned out! 

I actually made the DP for this one!  How cool!  I usually hate the way it turns out when I do randomly stamped designs, but this one is better!  Maybe because it's snowflakes?  LOL!  Have a great day everyone!

Wintery Fluttering

Good morning, my crafty friends!  Happy Hump Day!  It's time for Flutter By Wednesday over at Danni's Dreams!  This week's challenge is to make a winter themed project and include a butterfly, fairy or angel.  Easy enough! 

I don't think you can get much more wintery than this!  This is the view outside my front door this morning - in 2 directions.  Jake had school today as it wasn't the blizzard everyone else seems to have gotten.  I don't mind the snow as long as I don't have to drive in it.  :O)

I hope you enjoy my project this week! Be sure to check out the rest of the design team's creations! Ann, Cassie, Chris, Christine, Danni, Harriet, Heather, Jodi, Karen, Kimberly, Kris, Kristie, Michelle, Nancy, Nicola, Pam & Stef.

Taylored Color with Owls...

Hello again all!  Tonight I busted out this challenge that I just ran across on Embellish.  It's a color challenge that you have to incorporate owls into.  How fun!  I love the color combo and owls are so cute! 

I used the sketch over at Taylored Expressions.  I added the little ribbon flower to the corner of the brown card stock for a little something extra.  I made that flower in just a few minutes...my first one.  I am going to try something different next time.  :O)

RECIPE

DP:  My Mind's Eye
Card stock:  DCWV & Bazzill

Digital Pencil Too Challenge #6!

Hi all my crafty people!  I actually did the Digital Pencil Too Challenge on the day it was issued!  Isn't that something?  :O)  This stamp is so darling!  I believe this is pretty much what I looked like when I was little...hair, kitty and all!  It reminds me of the Bugs Bunny cartoon where the great big dog is saying something like "I will love him and hug him and squeeze him and rock him...and I will call him George!"  LOL!

Anyway, the challenge for this week is a sketch.  Here it is along with my interpretation. 

RECIPE
Size:  5x5
Image:  Digital Pencil Too
DP:  My Mind's Eye
Card stock:  DCWV, Neenah, stash
Flowers:  Prima
Misc:  Copic markers, MS punch, Scor-pal, Stickles, K&Co Beyond Postmarks (sentiment bubble)
