Summer Thank You

So I joined a summer card class and the first week has a color challenge.  I am really inspired by the amazing talent of the instructors and the participants.  

So I decided to combine this with color challenge with Unity's Kit of the Month Challenge

They give you the sketch and you use a stamp(s) from the 

MANY to choose from in the Kits we receive every month. 

So this is what I came up with 

This card is relatively easy to make, if you like to color.  That is really the only time consuming part. 

I used 

Papertray Paper - Spring Rain and Rasberry Fizz

Designer Paper - JilliBean Soup - Watermel Gaspacho

Markers - Copics, Spica and Slingo White Gell

Die - Spellbinders 

Stamps - June Kit of the Month-  Unity Stamp Company

There you have it!

Enjoy and have a great SUMMER!!! 

till next time

A little lemonade anyone??

Life isn't perfect, we all know that

so when life throws you lemons...

make lemonade! 

I created this card for Unity's Monthly Challenge which was to use fruit!! 

I added some glossy accents to the pitcher and the lemon. 

Hope you like it and are having a great Sunday! 

Till next time

Friends with Flair and My Birthday... What can be better than this?

Well today is my birthday. I sooooo don't feel my age.

I still feel 28, not 38.  

Life is good and getting better every day! 

Today I am going to share a card I made for the Kit of the Month challenge. 

I am loving the colors! 

I used copic glitter pens to color the cake and then ranger pearls for the base.  I used my Jillibean Soup paper that I LOVE!! 

Make sure to check out the amazing talent over at the Unity Blog! 

You can also get in on the action and get your Kit every month. 

Check it out here! 

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend and enjoys the holiday! 

till next time

Unity's Monthly challenge is all about the bird!! Here is another card that I made for the challenge. You should check out all the amazing talent. There have been over 100 submissions.  

I used this itty bitty for this card. 

Are they not the cutest chicks or what. 

Here is what I did with them. 

I stamped and cut out the chicks. I colored them using my copic glitter pens.  

This card was so easy and so fun!! 

Have a great Mothers Day to all you moms out there!!

Happy Birthday Girl Friend!

Well I haven't had a whole lot of time in the craft room.

You see it's in my basement and my husband is re-doing our hardwood floors right now in our kitchen.  

No kitchen means no easy access to the basement. 

If I want to go down stairs I have to go out the front door walk around and in through the back. 

Not much fun with these crummy days we have been having.  

I did get some in this past weekend though and that is what I am going to share with you. 

This is one of my new Itty Bitty's that is also co-branded with Cosmo Cricket. 

I love this stamp and was so excited to use it with Cosmo's paper. 

You can get this great stamp over at Unity. 

Isn't it just great!! 

I hope you have a great weekend and I hope the weather stays warm so I can walk to my basement.
