April 30 Millie card


Well last day of April!
You would think that the weather would try to be nice to us.... but not yet. It's cold outside and there are a few snowflakes still floating around. I'm hoping that is all that happens. We don't really want any staying on the ground.
 It's been busy around my house lately, lots of running. My siblings and I are planning a 50th anniversary party for my parents this summer. That has consumed a lot of my time lately. I finally got all the invitations made and in the mail, so now I might have a little less to do.
I have been coloring lots of images now I just have to finish putting my cards together.  There are lots of new great images for May coming out for Whimsy Stamps... make sure you stop by tomorrow for our monthly blog hop. You will love all the new digis. I have made this card a few days ago but never got it put up.
This is a card made using a great image from Lia Stampz called Millie. I thought that I would try a different color scheme. It just turned out to be purple and yellow. The sentiment is a rubber stamp set and the corner dies are from Whimsy Stamps as well. I am really pleased with how this card turned out. I hope that you get inspired to make a card today.

 The sentiment!
Supplies: Bazzill cardstock, Graphic 45 patterned paper, Zva pearls colored with copic markers to match the paper, Birthday letter seals & corner die set from Whimsy Stamps, Offray ribbon, distress ink.


Great seeing you again.

April 19 Baby Boo Dragon



Welcome!
Glad to see you, welcome back if you have been on my blog before and if  this is the first time that you've stopped by.... I'm hoping that you will enjoy my blog.
This is my inspiration card that I put together for this weeks post. This little image is from a new designer at Whimsy Stamps. The image is called Baby Boo Dragon Long Hair from Scrapper's Delights Paper Crafts. Isn't the she cute. I loved coloring and putting together this card. The colors purple and green work really well with the color that I used on the image. This card also came together very easy. Sometimes you struggle and just know that your project is missing something and other times it fits together beautifully. Well this one was great to work on. I hope that you get inspired today to create something wonderful.  I know that I will.
Here is my creation:

April 15 Pretty in Pink


I smell Spring!
That is the name of this adorable digi  from Whimsy Stamps from designer Crissy Armstrong.  I am actually not sure if I smell spring here in Alberta after the storm on the weekend, we got a terrible amount of snow again. I sure am hoping that spring will finally arrive sooner than later. I have actually been in a pink mood I guess my last couple cards have been pink. Great color though. That is the theme on the Whimsy Challenge blog right now. So if you have created a card or project with pink then you should definitely add it to the challenge blog ( click here to jump to the Whimsy challenge blog). For a chance to win some really terrific digital images.
This is my inspiration card for this week.

April 9 inspiration card



Welcome back, great to see you.
 I know I never got my post up last week. Things have been a little crazy with me the last week or so. The days are a blurr it seems not enough hours in the day. I've had alot on my plate and trying to keep up can sometimes get to you after a while. So I finally got into my scrapbook room and was able to sit and create some cards. I've gotten quite a few done so I'm planning on posting twice this week to help with my absence last week. I guess enough about my full days I'm sure yours are the same. That's why it's important to sit back and really make time for the things that you enjoy or you will never have the time. and life will just pass you by.
This adorable image is from a new designer at Whimsy Stamps. It's from Scrappers Delight and this image is called Baby Boo Bunny-long hair. Isn't she adorable, and fun to color. I really enjoyed making this card. Take some time for yourself and create a wonderful inspiring project, jump over to the whimsy blog and check out all the wonderful creations from the Design team. 
 I just got a fun package in the mail and in it was a die from memory box. It is really delicate. I foam squared it up that was a little tricky cause it's all so delicate.
 A closer look at the image.
Supplies: Bazzill cardstock. MME patterned paper, Spellbinder Fancy Framed Tags one, Memory Box die cut Fresh Foliage, I just typed the sentiment on the computer, Martha Stewart butterfly punch, copic markers, stardust stickles from Ranger, Bo Bunny pearls.

I am entering this card in the following challenges:
Artisic Inspirations: Anything goes
Besties Challenge: Pink as main color
Card mania: Punches or dies
Make it Monday: Anything goes
