 I just love him!  He's so sweet!

 

So, you may be asking yourself: "What is a summer themed project?"  Easy peasy lemon squeezy (as the girls say):

 

 

Flowers, Butterflies, Sports, Vacation, Sunshine, Outdoors, Father's Day, Water/Beach, Birthdays. Colors are Bright and Vibrant.

 

In this case, an outdoor activity.

Creative Inspirations!

It's Wednesday!!!!  That means it's time for a new challenge at Creative Inspirations and this week it's all about the little ones!  Our challenge is to create a card for a new baby or a card for a child!  Aren't these the sweetest cards to create?!?  And we have our own Lisa to thank for this week's challenge theme...but you may know her as the Crafting Diva! 


And our prize this week is a chance to be a Guest Designer at Creative Inspirations for the month of July!!!!! 

Here is my creation:

Normally I do baby cards in pastels and "sweet" colors but this time I decided to go nuts with the brights!  You really can't tell but I used distress inks with the Rangers paper...still trying to decide if I like it. 

Thank you so much for popping by!  Be sure to visit my teammates and see their amazing projects for this great challenge!  Then get a craftin' and make us some baby cards!!!!  ;D

Happy Wednesday!

My latest project is a pen holder...just slide the pens in and viola!  Something cute to look at while you write!

It's time for a new open paper challenge at Make it Monday and we have Bugaboo back!!!! 

Everything That You Ever Wanted to Know About Bugaboo Stamps: A Short Essay

As if raising five children in the frozen land of the North was not enough of a challenge, Jodie Mackrell decided to dip her cold little Canadian toes into the world of papercrafting by opening an online store full of her illustrations. That was two years ago. Today Bugaboo Stamps is one of the leading companies in digital images, and we're still growing!  From seriously snarky to sugary sweet to sublimely soulful all the way over to the other side of the super sexy spectrum, you're bound to find all that you need and more to create your paper projects.  Jodie works very hard to provide New Releases and Freebies every week! 

 If your taste runs to rubber (and you know who you are), you can find Bugaboo Stamps   atTotally Stampalicious. And finally, join the Bugaboo Stamps DT   for weekly challenges at Catch the Bug. 

Bugaboo Stamps are offering a very generous prize of winner's choice of 7 single digis!

 

 

A few weeks ago I made a journal for Grace...and since then I believe all I've heard is "When are you going to make mine mama?"  (Izzy always calls me Mama when she wants something, lol!) So here is Izzy's, using Crayon Girl!  (It's still pristine by the way...the binding hasn't even been cracked!  Ha!)

 

 

 

And now for my amazing POTW...talk about DETAILS!  This card is full of 'em!

 

From Debora...

 

 

LOVE it!!!!  Stop on over and leave her some well deserved love!

 

Thank you so much for stopping by! I can't wait to see your amazing creations this week!

Cupcake Time!

It's Sunday...time for another delicious challenge at Cupcake Inspirations!  This week we have our old friend Prairie Fairy back as a sponsor and my goodness their images are cute!!!

This week our theme is fishing!  The perfect excuse to pull up Fisherman Lewis!  I made a card almost exactly like this last year and just loved it...so I did it again!  Ha!

 

Isn't he cute?  (Although his hat isn't doing much to protect him from the sun!)

 

Thank you so much for popping by!  Don't forget to check out my teammates...their blogs are listed on my sidebar...and then head on over to Cupcake Inspirations for a great challenge!

 

Happy Sunday!
