New card

As you can see, I'm still having heaps of fun with my Big Shot!  Lol!  I used the sketch from Sketch Saturday for this card.  The butterflies qualify as bugs for SSCC (I hope anyway!  You can find this Tilda there!)

Color wise I decided to raid my neutral stash box!  Who knew I had so much kraft!  Lol!

Happy Sunday!

Make it Monday!

Oooh I'm so excited for this week's Make it Monday challenge because we are sponsored by one of my favorites: Bugaboo! 

I loooooove Bugaboo!

Here is my card...simple and sweet!  I attempted clouds in the background...depending on the angle I either really like them or really don't!  Ha!

And here is my fabulous, fantastic, wonderful pick of the week:  From Gaynor

Isn't he adorable?!?  Love him!

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you get a chance to link up with us this week at Make it Monday!

Cupcake Time

It's time for another challenge at Cupcake Inspiration!  This week our sponsor is Di's Digis! I just love her store...even if this particular challenge did go to the dogs...he he he!  Oh wait, that's not funny because I haven't shown you our inspirational photo yet!

Ok, well, even with the photo it's not that funny!  Ha! 

Here is my project using the colors from the photo (I seem to be lacking any kind of dog stamp!):

I do hope you'll get a chance to link up with us this week!  Happy Sunday!

Have a Magical Day! (at the beach!)

I have TWO new cards up AGAIN!  Lol!  Can you tell a cold front hit and the girls and I have been "trapped" inside?  (Funny how in the spring, 60 feels like heaven and in the summer it feels like winter!)

The first is a beach scene:

The best part of this card?  That polka dot circle on the inside?  It's a coaster!!!  Bwahahahaha!

Ok, next card...feeling a little magical?

Hang on to your hats because I went crazy nuts with this challenge!  Ha! 

This week's challenge was to mask Tilda (with an accessory)...well, I decided to literally mask two Tildas to create one!  Plus I put her atop a tube so she could float along the waves!  As Grace would say: "Boom Baby!"  Here is my creation, which I hope you enjoy!  I love it!
