A pocket full of Sunshine

Hi Everyone!

Did you have a nice weekend? I hope you all are getting some warmer weather :) Today I'm sharing a card I made for the Peachy Keen Challenge 13-17 :: Sketch Challenge.  When I first saw this sketch I knew exactly what I wanted to make.  I used the circles as inspiration and used three images instead. The pocket, the sun, & the clouds. Here is what I came up with. 

I used the PKSC-14 for the face on the sun (cac). The pocket is actually a card liner from the Wild Card Cartridge.

Hi Everyone!

Just popping in to enter a card in a few challenges.  Peachy Keen Challenge 13-16 :: Anything Goes. So much fun inspiration! I chose to use the new release PKSC -16. This release had a great variety of images and faces.

I stamped the jar on water color paper and then cut it out.  Next I stamped the two butterflies and then colored with a mix of copics and color pencils. Lastly, I added stickles.

I wanted to keep it really simple.  I added a cute sticker I found in my overflowing sticker drawer and there you have it!

Circles, Buttons, & Scraps

Hi There!

I don't know about you but my scrap files (yes I file them - in color order) are busting at the seams literally.  I had to buy a new file holder this week for my blues. So I just had to figure something out.  So here is what I came up with. What do you think?

I used a few challenges for inspiration. I just pulled out as many blue patterns that looked okay together and started die cutting.  I used the MCT circle die and the MCT button die. 

I then added some twine from My craft spot & Ribbon from LSP. I ended up making 15 cards with various colors but I think this one turn out best :) and... I can snap the file folder now :)

Hi Everyone!

How was your week? We had such a great time on our little getaway, we had beautiful weather and lots to see! It has been a little hard to get back in the swing of things :) 
I did put off the laundry and house cleaning to make a card for the Peachy challenge. This week its a photo inspiration challenge. I chose to use the colors and the flower as my inspiration.

I used the New release PKSC-16 for those pretty flowers and used a mix of copics and colored pencils.

Here is the Photo - such a pretty palette

The sentiment "Happy" & "Joy" is from PKSC-15

Did you enjoy the week? As you read this we should be on a gold mine tour in Angels Camp Ca having a blast! I sure couldn't forget about Little Scrap Pieces Fun Friday! I hope you will join us for this challenge it's an easy one - Flowers. Just use a flower on your project and link up with us! I chose something Clean and simple

I cut the card and flowers using my gypsy. The flowers are from Walk in my garden and I used one of the card cuts. I just placed the flowers in a random pattern on the card and cut!

Next I added fun pattern paper in the colors of the rainbow because I saw Miss Cassandra's awesome challenge over at My Creative Time and I LOVE this theme! Lastly I added the perfect sentiment from the MCT Color me happy stamps.

Over the Moon

 

Hi Everyone!

 

I'm so behind this week. We have had so much to do this week. Class day, Field trip, Jog-a-thon, family picnic - boy they sure packed it all in one week!

Did you all see the challenge over at Peachy keen stamps  it's a fun one! Make a 3D object with a baby theme.  I think I mentioned I have a couple friends that are expecting so this little gift bag will come in handy very soon.

 Wow, I got out the ol' paper crimper for this project :) I also made a  bead charm and added it to the bow.

I used PKSC-14 for the moon and Sentiment.  The clouds and flag die are Lil inker designs dies. The buttons are MCT and the twine is Liz's paper loft.

I filled this with a gift card and just crimped the top and bottom. So easy and I LOVE how this little bag turned out!

 

Hope you all have a GREAT day!
