Hello fellow crafters....
You wouldn't believe but its a little after midnight and I have been blog surfing....lol Well some of you WOULD believe because you do it also...

Since I still say that I am pretty new to paper crafting and blogging....I do not really have a system yet.
I started following a ton of blogs to learn as much as I can, now I need a day...just to go through the blogs I'm following ...I absolutely Love looking at eveyones projects and I get so much information and inspiration from you all....so now was the only time could could do it....this week..lol
I also managed to finish a card I started last week so I wanted to post it also.....She is one of my favorite people on TV.

Tiddly Inks Challenge # 58 Nature Movie

Hello and good Friday!
I am currently layed off but for some reason I am still very happy its Friday....probably because everyone will be at home for the next two days....like me....
It looks like we are going to the movies tonight to see the new Captain America movie...hopefully its good.
I wanted to participate it the Tiddly Inks Challenge ....I love their images...the challenge was to have a nature movie theme...not to easy because I only have a few digis and I couldn't think of what nature move fit them since most of my images from TI are the steam Victorians...lol
So here is what I came up with....the movie is Clan of the Cave Bear....remember that one? with Daryl Hanna...I know...I know.....I went REALLY far back....lol
Here is my card.

Make it colorful challenge# 26

Hello and good day!
I really had fun working on this card...I ve started making my cards bigger 6 x 6 in order to make room for fun embellishments and background...so this is mt first attempt at adding background...lol
I will keep trying.
This image is sooo cute, she is from make it crafty also my candy stand is from MIC.
I am really starting to LOVE my Cricut Imagine...the balloons were sooo easy and already colored and cut, also flourishes very easy on the Imagine machine...
The challenge was to color the hair in a different color...not blond, black, red or my favorite...brown....So I went with orange...this image was really fun to color...I think I will be using her alot.

Digital Pencil challenge

Hello and good day....its so funny because I started working on a card today and got distracted with this Moe Manning image and ended up coloring it in and completed the card for it....
I still have the original card to finish...lol
I saw that here was a black and white challenge on DP2 and wanted to give it a try....I need lots more practice of course but I still wanted to post my card because I just love this image.

Challenge Card

Hello and good day!
Im working on a few different things, first of all I want to make bigger cards. When I first started trying to make cards I learned from MPS to take 8.5 x 11 inch card stock and cut in half and thats the size of the card.
As I learn more and more about card making, I realize that is not big enough to add details and back ground so I am working on different sized cards now.
This card is 4 x 6 completely by accident...lol but I liked having a bigger base to work with.
The Theme of this card is GONE WITH THE WIND
I am entering this card in the following challenges.

Tiddly Inks Reel me in Challenge # 57
Craft your Passion challenge # 67
Sundays with Chrissy De-stress challenge # 19

Fun in the Sun

Hello again....I had to do one more post today....I was so excited about this card I made....
I got the Idea to make my own card stock from a wonderful website called.... http://melissamade2.blogspot.com/
I found Melissa's blog during the stamp release for Tiddly Inks and Make it Crafty....and I have been stocking her blog every since....she has beautiful cards and she makes her own cardstock sometimes....so I decided to try my hand at this.....I love how this turned out!
I started with white cardstock and stamped it all over with a 1.00 stamp I purchased from Joann Fabrics...I used Memento ink....Then I just started coloing in the images with my copics....then I topped it off with some Martha Stewart  fine glitter.....not bad for my first try...
The main image is Moes Digital Pencil called Umbrella....I love her....she is chilling enjoying her cocktail....Im sure I will use this image alot...lol
Oh yeah and I found this website that gives free sentiments HERE and another one HERE...pretty cool.

I entered this card in the Stampinsanity summer challenge.

Happy Sunday

Hello and good day...
I am playing in my craft room today and I have a couple of things to show you.... I purchased  a Clip it up organizer from Walmart...I think it was 55.00 and only available online in my area....I am using it for my stamp storage....it actually bigger that I thought but I think I'm going to get alot of use out of it.....also there is another piece you can buy an add to the top so you get two racks.
I also made a card today...I thought it was for a challenge but when I was done...I forgot what challenge it was for...lol oh well....still a fun image to color.
This image was 1.oo on Kenny K's website....for a short time only.

Kenny K Anything goes Challenge

Hello and good day!
Yesterday I finished another great blog hop over at Kenny Ks Kraft Girls blog, another great bunch of talented ladies and I really love the Kenny K images...one of my favorites was The Big O....too cute and of course I have already purchased that Digi.
Well I had to make a card to go along with the blog hop so I picked one of my other favorite Kenny K Stamps...this one is called bling baby.
This is the first time I tried picking my CS first then coloring my image to match the paper I had chose.
I think this may be a better way to start a project...in the past I would color my image first....then scramble to find CS on hand that matched...anyway here is what I created.

Big Stamp Release coming

Tomorrow should be real fun! new stamp release happening as a joint venture, Tiddly Inks and Make it Crafty have a joint stamp release tomorrow.
I love The Tiddly Inks stamps and cant wait to see what they come up with.
I usually love anything in the steam Victorian area....and the sneak peaks are sooo interesting....gonna be big fun!

Hello and blessed day!
I colored a couple of images today...I didnt finish making all the cards because I was having such a good time coloring...lol just like being a kid again.
I did finish this card and decided to use it for a challenge.
The challenge was to distress or ink the card... not something Im really used to doing but I did distress the edges on the cardstock and I did ink the edges behind the image.
I LOVE this stamp....its called bling baby ..from Kenny k at Whimsy....she is sooo cute with her Ugg boots......hope you like.

Prince

Hello and good day!
Im just getting back in my craftroom to play after the 4th of July weekend...I went outside my house last night around 9:30pm and it sounded like a war was going on in my city....there were fireworks going off EVERYWHERE....(they are illegal here)
It wsa a little sad for me because it made me think of my dog Prince...he just passed away a few days before.
Prince was my Cocker Spaniel and he was 14 years old...every year we put him in the house on the fouth of July so he could hide by the couch...lol
So I have been feeling sad for my doggie....Chanel is doing her best to pick up my spirits.
I made this card for Prince and thought I would use it for the Throwback Thurday Challenge.
