I Love Flowers

Happy Monday!

My card today is for my guest spot with The Outlawz Twisted Thursday Challenge. Yes, I am a bit behind with my post but you still have until Wednesday evening to play along :)

The TT challenges are always anything goes and each week the girls include a twist if you would like to incorporate it into your creations. 

This week the twist is to add flowers. 

The image is a digi image from Anne's Digital Art. I colored her with copics, fussy cut her out and placed her over the heart border and embossed heart background. The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts which I placed on top of a bit of cheese cloth. The leaf flourish was cut out with my Cameo Silhouette. 

I hope you will stop by the TT challenge and see what the DT has made to share this week. We would love for you to play along with us!

2 Teach is 2...

Hello!

Tomorrow is Abbi's last day of school and actually her last year of school at MLCS. We are very blessed that we have been able to send her to such a wonderful Christian School for the past 6 years. It is going to be hard to leave such a close knit, caring group of teachers and staff. It will be especially hard because Abbi has  had the same teacher for the past 3 years and the same kids in her class for the past 6 years.

I have mixed emotions about her beginning middle school. I am so happy and thankful that she is looking forward to this next step in her life but sad that she is old enough to be in middle school! Where did the time go?!!  I am also hesitant that she is heading in to public schools next year but know that she goes with strong Christian foundation and values. 

I wanted to make a special card for Abbi to give to Ms Castro and thought that this image from Anne's Digital Art was perfect! 

I colored the image with Prisma, Koh-i-noor and Dewent pencils and OMS.

It is matted using SB Squares and Postage Stamp dies.

The sentiment is from Gina K. Designs Back to School stamp set.

The pattern papers are Basic Greys Oxford and Life of the Party.

Keeping with the school theme, I tucked a couple of bingo cards behind the image.

Thank you for checking in with me today!

Have I toad you

Hi!

Remember me?! lol! I have been crazy busy this past week and have not had a chance to make anything, let alone post anything.

Abbi's birthday is coming up and so is her 1st communion. Hopefully after the next couple weeks are over I can spend some time at my crafting table again!

Since it is Thursday that means it's time for another Twisted Thursday Challenge at The Outlawz. Sticking with tradition for the last week of the month, this week's challenge is "Anything Goes"!

Here is my sample -

This frog was a freebie that Anne Fenton had on her blog under the "Anne's Freebie Frogs" tab. Isn't this guy cute and I loved the sentiment.

I colored him with Prisma Pencils and baby oil. The papers are Echo Parks Springtime. I kept the embellies pretty simple by using just twine and buttons.

We are making a few changes to the Twisted Thursday challenges. One change is that you can now use what ever medium you would like to for coloring, including alcohol markers with no limits! Come check out the challenge to see the rest of the DT samples...they are fabulous!

Have a great day!!

Happy Monday Friends!
                           

I have one last fall/autumn card to share with you. The image is a digi by Anne's Digital Art and I colored it with Prisma Pencils and OMS. The sentiment is from Gina K Designs Autumn Beauty stamp set. I used some pattern papers sitting on my table that were leftovers from making Halloween cards. I love it when I can use some of my pattern paper scraps. I often forget to check my scrap drawer first when I start to make a card so you can imagine how full my pattern paper scrap door is! ;)

Thank you so much for dropping by to visit!

Enjoy your Monday!

Happy Everything!

Happy Friday my crafty friends!!

I found another free digi stamp over at The Outlawz digi group.
The lily is another Digi that Anne Fenton drew and has out in the freebie group.
I colored the lily with copics - YG0000, YG00, YG01/Y13, Y15, Y17. I added glitter to the petal but it isn't showing up so well in the picture.
The sentiment is Lili of the Valley's Happy Circular Sentiments. The pattern paper is Basic Greys Hello Luscious.
I wanted to keep the focus on the lily so my only embellishments are pearls.

Thanks for visiting me today! Have an awesome rest of your Friday!!
