Happy Birthday Laura!

Today is a good day because is is Laura's Birthday and we are having Birthday Buddies Blog Hop!

Laura is such a sweet gal, I love it when I get to spend time with her.  Here is the card I made for her to wish her a Happy Birthday!

Love this cute little monkey and pineapple from Waffle Flower.  EEK!  Cuteness!  I colored this sweet image in with my Copics and added on the cute little bow.  It was perfectly paired with this paper from We are Memory Keepers called It Factor.  I recently picked it up at a big cafty garage sale- yeah!  I am not really big on the pineapple trend right now, but this combo was too perfect to resist.  :)  I stamped the sentiment from Impress and used a Lawn Fawn speech bubble.  It is all mounted on this SU! Saffron Cardstock. 

Here is the hop list:

Time Out Challenge- Celebration

TPD Wednesdays

Happy Wednesday Two Paper Divas fans!  Glad you could come for a visit today.  I am sharing another card featuring April's TPD release. 

This is about as CAS as this girl can get with any card.  It isn't usually my strength but something about this Hello Spring set made it seem easy.  I stamped it straight on kraft cardstock and used my Prismacolor pencils to add color to them and it really pops of the page.  I paired it with one of the sentiments from the Feel Better set hoping to give someone a little pick me up!  I finished with some hemp twine. 

Hoping you'll stop by the Two Paper Divas blog to see what else the DT has cooked up!

TPD Wednesday- Get Well

Welcome to this week's edition of Two Paper Divas Wednesday.  I have a fun card to share with you today featuring one of their newly released set called Feel Better.  This set is so fun and versatile.  Case in point- 

Those bandaids are just the sweetest little things.  What could be more perfect than adding an enamel heart onto it.  Paired with this fun BasicGrey paper, SU! Cardstock, flowers and ribbon it is bound to perk anyone up.  Who could resist those colors?!  No one!

This card is making me feel better as we speak as I was home sick yesterday.  I am not feeling 100% but the healing vibes sure are making me feel better. 

I hope you will head on over to TPD blog to check out DT Wednesday!

Sunday Stamps- 124

Hello Friends and Happy Sunday!  Sunday Stamps is here with a fun sketch. 

Here is my take on this week's sketch. 

I had tons of fun making this.  I love the hamster and wheel in this Lawn Fawn Set.  I used the corresponding dies and the Lawn Fawn circle dies. The SU! cardstock is one of my fave colors, Costal Cabana.  I used my Copics to add color.  Here is a close up of the hamster, she has a little flower tucked behind her ear.    

That's all today.  Please head on over to Sunday Stamps to see what the DT has come up with. 

Thanks for stopping!

TPD Wednesay

Howdy friends!  Happy Wednesday to you!

Have you seen the new April release for Two Paper Divas?  Well you should, because it is fun!  I have a card to share with you today featuring two of those new sets.  

The Balloons are from the new Dream Big set and the balloons are from the Feel Better set.  I stamped the sentiment on a die cut from SU!  I stamped the balloons and colored them with my Copics.  They pair perfectly with DP from Doodlebug Designs.  So bright and festive for a birthday right?

Thanks for stopping by today!

Neon Nicknacks

Saw the new challenge over at the Curtain Call the other day and had to create something to join the fun!  This is just so playful!

Here is my take on the challenge.  

I used my Impress heart and sentiment.  I colored each facet of this heart gem a different neon color and love the outcome.  I stamped the sentiment in white on black to make it pop!  The most fun, is the re-purposed Easter grass i used behind the heart, it was just the right shade of pink.  Darn that stuff has so much static tho! I am sure it will be on my carpet, socks, coat, anything it can stick to for days... LOL!  I added the bright green Doodlebug enamel dots for a final touch of flair. 

I hope you like and thanks for stopping today!

TPD Saturday

Happy Saturday to all of you.  I hope you have a wonderful weekend!  I think this card will help inspire you to do so....

Love this sentiment from Two Paper Divas Life's Little Sayings set.  It reads, "Life doesn't have to be perfect to be wonderful."  This card is an attempt at mixed media.  I used some dies from Memory Box and SU!, stencils from TCP and Tim Holtz along with Gelotas to make up this card.  The final touch is some of those bling that look like water drops.  

Thanks for stopping today and be sure to head on over to Two Paper Divas to check out this set and other great sets!
