Mojo 139....Did I Mention I'm Behind?

I know I said it the other day, but man am I behind on all the sketches I want to do!! I have a PILE of them printed out, and realistically will never get to all of them, but it is nice having them there when I need inspiration. Today, I have used a Mojo sketch from back in May, but I LOVE it!!

I used the SUPER CUTE Jolinne Sweet Spring set. Instead of using the girl in the set, I decided to use the sweet little bunny and flowers from the set. I added some grass to the bottom with my Die-namics Fresh Cut Grass die, and some MFT felt. I also used the Die-namics Cloud Die with some more felt.
Well, that is it for me for now!! Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!

Crazy 4 Challenges- Paper Flowers

Hey Everyone, and welcome to this week's Crazy 4 Challenges challenge!! Mercy is still our hostess this week, and her challenge was to make a card or project using a paper flower that we had made ourselves or bought....fun!! Since it was her challenge, I decided to use her paper flower tutorial, as well as one of her sketches!! If you would like to play along with us, all you have to do is create a card/project and upload it to your blog and/or to your SCS Gallery using the keyword C4C42. Don't forget to go back to the C4C blog and link it on Mr Linky so that everyone else can see it too.

Before I talk a little about my card, I wanted to let you know that Lori Boyd has decided to step down from the team to focus on other endeavors. We wish her lots of luck!! Taking her place is the ever so talented, Maria Bell!! Welcome to the team!!

For my card, I used the There She Goes Domestic Goddess set. As I said above, I used one of Mercy's sketches from the first week of June, and her paper flower tutorial. I have actually seen her make a few of these in person, and mine pale in comparrison!! I screwed up and used one sided paper, though. Definitely needs to be double sided!!
Well, that is it for me for now!! Thanks for stopping by and have a great day! Be sure to blurf around and see what the other Crazies have for you!!

Can You Dig It?

Hey everyone!! I just wanted to pop in really quick with this card I made using the new There She goes set, By The Sea. Shockingly, it wasn't for a challenge!! I made it as a sample for my Wednesday Trends post from a few weeks ago, to use cork.

I love the images in this set, and the sentiments-as always- are to die for!! I mean, really?! Can You Dig It? How perfect is that??!! My cork, and yummy plaid ribbon are from My Favorite Things, along with the Jumbo Scallop die-namic used to make my scallops.

Oh, Alice!!!

Hey everyone!! Hope you are having a wonderful day!! Today is my Friday, and I am THRILLED!! I got off work at two, and don't have to be back until Saturday.....yaaaaay me!!! For those of you that are friends with me on Facebook, you will know that my Dad had surgery this past Friday. His surgery was pretty major, but everything went AMAZING and he is recovering slowly but surely!! The best part, he has now quit smoking...well, it has been a week since he has smoked, but that is the longest he has went without smoking in 46yrs. I am SO PROUD!!

Enough of my babble!! Today's card is one I made for the Oh Alice! Blog Challenge posted last Saturday. This week's challenge is being sponsored by My Favorite Things!! I wanted to stamp then, but I was too stressed about his surgery!! The good part is, if you didn't know about the challenge yet, you still have until the 18th to enter(follow the links to the challenge blog for more details). I also decided to use the CPS sketch from this past week, also sponsored by MFT. To create my scallops, I used my YUMMY Jumbo Scalloped Scallops Die-namic from MFT......LOVE IT!!
Well, that is it for me for now!! Hope this post finds you all well, and you have a great day!!

For my card today, I used the new Who's That Gardening Girl? set, of course. I decided to make an outdoor scene with my girl, so I drew in her stone patio, and the siding on her house using my Copic multi liner pen. I can only remember living in one house that DIDN'T have siding, so it just seemed appropriate. I also used a Sweet Sunday Sketch from a last Sunday...it worked PERFECTLY with this image.

For the inside, I stamped a row of plants, and used a sentiment from the Green Thumb freebie set being sent along with your VIP package...cause I KNOW you are going to buy it!!
