 Hello everyone!  I'm here with my new creation for the DT over at Flower Love Delice Store. There's a totally awesome sale right now going on it's 40% on everything in the store!!!  The code needed can be found in the post  here . I had to prepare a card for a little baby girl.  I went in a shabby chic look. Here's my card.

I'm here for the great challenge for  613 Avenue Create  and this time our twist for you is a super easy one.  It's to use your Country colors! Our fabulous sponsor is none other than   Totally adore the digis from Rick!!!  It's so hard to decide which one to use.    I thought the great one to use would be Gigi.  Because well my country colors is the red and white.  

Hello everyone!  It's time for a new challenge over at  Gingerloft challenge  and this time it's about Red, white and blue. Since those are not my countries colors... I figured this was the perfect opportunity for me to get ahead of my Christmas cards.  So I used the fabulous digi Cardinals.

Hello everyone!!!  Hope you had a great Saturday!  I went to the vet this morning with our 3 dogs.  Not a pleasant outing lol it was just a routine check up and vaccine... but Charlie has an ear infection and Chanel will need to have teeth cleaned... which probably means more extractions.. for a tiny dog she sure cost a lot of money.  Lucky is great, he was really scared and hated it there... pooped in the car on the way and then peed at the vet's office... yup not a good start of the day. Then we cleaned, got some of the kitchen organized because the plumber's visit had also affected the kitchen and the drains in the cupboards... so that's done.  This afternoon was better, got to do some crafting and then went to see Monster University as a family in 3D.  Such a fun movie.  We had love the 1st Monster Inc. so it was fun to see the beginning of this great duo. Now I have to share with you a little card I made with the great freebie over on FB at the Craft Galore  challe

Hello everyone!  Hope you are having a fabulous Saturday so far.  I'm so happy it's the weekend and a long one on top of it for us folks in Canada!!!  I have lots to do to get ready for vacation... lots of DT cards to prepare ahead of time as well. For this post I'm showcasing a wonderful image from Freshed Brewed Design. It's the sooo cute Honeybee that can be found here .

TGIF!!!!!  And for those in Canada it means a long weekend ahead with the celebration of Canada day on Monday ;o)  Just looove those.  Hopefully we will get better weather than recently,  it's been raining a LOT.  But the grass is super green! So Friday means a post for Delicious Doodles Challenges .  For our challenge this week you have to use a charm.  Pretty easy no? I played with the awesome digi Hydrangea.  I love it.  And wanted to keep a pretty CAS look because the paper is just too beautiful to hide!  This card could be used for all kinds of occasions.

I'm back with a little card I created for the challenge over at  Simply betty stamps  for the FB fan page. This month we got to play with a great digi called Summer.  There were 2 versions one with eyes open and one with closed eyes.  I chose the open eye version.  The challenge was to create a background for the image.  So I made a cloud background.

Well... my luck is still pretty bad.... Last Sunday I was downstairs when I started hearing a drip.... called hubby over and it was a pipe that was dripping... so he opened a bit of the wall to find the drip... Yup part of my studio wall!!!!!  The plumber came over today.  He had to open a bigger chunk of the wall. The good news is that lots of $$$ later the leak is fixed.  But my studio is a mess and this is what I have to share with you at WOYWW . and well of course stuff was put on my desk in the meantime... oh when the plumber left we got a phone call to say there was an issue with my youngest son being accepted at the school he's been going to for the past 5 years (long story... we are not in the proper school for my district) and he would have to go to another one... :(  REALLY?!?  anything else coming our way?!?  well the good news is I called the school and they still have room in the grade that he's supposed to be in... so left work early to go and sign some

Anyway this is the time for a new challenge over at  Tuesday Throwdown  and this time it's about Glitz and glimmer.  Our fabulous sponsor is none other than the great Just looooove those images so much.  And for this challenge I decided to used the fabulous Howdy Baby that I had printed and yet to color.

Hello everyone!  I'm back with a card I created for the challenge over at Meljen's.  I had an image that I had precolored and not used yet.  The colors was just perfect for this challenge. So the great digi is Flower girl.  I have used her before as well.  She's so very pretty.

It's Sunday!  And this time it means another challenge over at  Lacy Sunshine  it also means that there are some new digis to play with!!! For this card I used the awesome Dulcinea- Sugar skulls.  She's totally fabulous and perfect for me.  I really love how Heather sends us digis that she knows we will have fun with ;o).

I had a special request for a thank you card... it was for a FBI agent... and it had to include a pin up... and it was supposed to say thank you... So... when I got that request I thought right away of Sassy Studio image.  I used the great Shady image.  I really hope that my SIL likes it and that it's what she was hoping for lol kind of hard to make a Pinup thank you card...

I have another little card for you!  This time it's with a digi from Creepie Cute stamps .  I haven't played with those digis in awhile and missed it ;o)  So I decided to have some fun since I had the image all printed out.  Just needed to color and put a layout to it.

Good evening everyone!!!  Hope you had a great Saturday!!!  I was busy today playing in my studio!  I had not played in it forever lol well all of the week!!!  So really missed it.  And it was lousy outside today.  It was raining after a fabulous week of sunshine when I was actually working... and not enjoying it... the good thing is that I got to craft, the bad thing is that we didn't get to open our new tent trailer ( used but new for us)!!!  We finally got it yesterday and we were not able to show it to the kids yet. I really love making ATCs!!!

Hello everyone!  Another Wednesday WOYWW !  And this time I'm again in an hotel room on a business trip.  The good news is nothing bad happened so far on this trip!  The bad news is that I missed my daughter's birthday yesterday and I'm missing my son Gregory's graduation from 6th grade today... :(  So like my boss said, I'm either a bad mom... or a very dedicated employee.... hmmmm... get's you thinking of your priorities right?!?    But you still need the food on the table and the rest... so... guess I'll stick around for awhile more... just hope I don't miss too many of those important events! So here's what's on my work desk!  I have brought my computer with me this time.  I figured I would be able to blog a bit at night... and also because I was scared that we get stolen and that this time they take my computer! Hope your Wednesday is better than mine that's supposed to be in meetings all day... and hope that you don't miss an

I'm back!  Told you I would be...  2 weekends ago I was asked to create a soccer theme card for a birthday!  I had some great paper  but couldn't decide on the image to use... I wanted something that wasn't  kid related since it's for a grown man.  So I went web searching and found a great site called Arthur Clip Art.  I found the great digi there.  Then the rest just happened lol

Hello everyone!  I wanted to share this card this weekend... and well ran right out of time.  Today during lunch time I did some commenting on my DT work... and still didn't post.  So now it's the time to post ;) I've been pretty good at doing a card a week for the challenge over at  Meljens designs .  Just love those fabulous digis!!!

Today we have a challenge that you will absolutely love over at  Eureka Stamps  it's anything goes!!! For this challenge I used the fabulous digi 18804 Boy Graduate.  My son Gregory is graduating this week from 6th grade!!!  So this was just perfect to make a card for him ;)

It's time for the new challenge over at  613 Avenue create  and this time our twist for you is something masculine.  This is perfect for the day since it's father's day!!! Our fabulous sponsor is   For my card I used the great Digger!  I thought this little guy would make the perfect b-day card for my youngest son!  Initially I was going to go with a sentiment along the line I totally dig you... but then I thought it was too cheesy and I found something that worked perfectly with this.

Good morning to you all!  It's time for another challenge over at  Gingerloft Challenge .  This time our challenge is to tie it with a yellow ribbon! That seems easy enough... but I was kind of stumped... didn't really know what image to use and most of all what ribbon...  Then the inspiration came as soon as I saw the great image Beehive! I decided to make a really CAS card.  I like those a lot these days!!!

Hello everyone!  Hope you had a wonderful Saturday.  I had fun, went to do some errands with my daughter  Megan this morning.  Then my son Gregory cooked us lunch ;)  Trying to get them to be self sufficient... so he cooked grilled cheese.  With the help of his older brother Andrew.  William is with his dad so he didn't get to contribute to the family chores. Then I had some play time including this card.  And it was time for supper with my dad who is here for a little visit!!!  So happy with the family time ;)  Feels really good to be able to enjoy it a bit. So back to this card, I saw a post on my friend Sassy Raggedy's blog about a Freebie challenge with a great image.  Just had to join in!  And this is my take with the great Searching.

I'm so happy to share with you the next challenge over at  Scribbles design challenge .  This time it's about Father's day/Masculine card. For my card I used the fabulous Alley cat 3 digi.

Hello everyone!  I'm doing my 1st post as a DT over at Flower Love Délice .  It's a fabulous flower boutique with some awesome prices.  You really should check it out. For my card I had a request to make a graduation card some weeks ago and I thought the wonderful flowers would be the perfect addition for this special card.  So I really went all out!!! I used the great digi from Saturated Canary called Nevaeh.  

Hello everyone!!!  TGIF!!!!!  Even if I will have to do some office work again this weekend :(  But enough on that.  It's time for a new challenge over at  Delicious Doodles Challenge . And this time our challenge is about All creatures great and small. I looked through the fabulous images and decided to get ahead on the Christmas cards since I want to give a box of them to my grandma!  So I played with the fabulous Penguin Family.  Just fabulous image.

I'm back to share a card that I made this past weekend for a challenge that I really wanted to enter.  I had seen a new challenge about 2 weeks ago called  Musically challenged challenge .  I really wanted to play and didn't.  So this time I didn't want to miss out.  Especially since the sponsor is Ike's Art and just love her art!!!!  I had just the perfect image to use for this challenge and it's one from Ike.  I paired it with a sentiment from Ginger house. The video this week is Just like a pill from Pink. So to make my card I used the image Eye see you from Ike.  It was a freebie on her blog at one point if I'm not mistaken.

Well today at work I had a special activity and it involved building a raft in pouring rain.... yup got to love my job lol   Actually it was a team building activity and we had fun, but would have been much better in the sun! I came back home tired, wet and cold... So with all these days of meetings this week not much crafting is going on in my studio... so I decided to use the WOYWW to showcase the wonderful ATCs that I have gotten so far!!!  Just loooove them and feel so lucky to have been able to participate. I just love them all!!!  So much work that went into making them!!!  I have posted the ones that I made in a post yesterday. On my desk s a copic pen that I need to refill and on the left on the piece of papers the list of cards that I need to make ;) Hope you had a great Wednesday!!! Hugs

Hello everyone!!!  It's time for me to do a little card with one of the new release!  I'm using the great SN00184b from the set veggie patch bunnies that you can purchase here . I just love those little guys!!!  They are so very cuuute!  I played with this cute little guy just peeking over the little cabbage.

Hello everyone!  I wanted to share with you the ATCs I had made for the exchange going on at WOYWW  2 weeks ago.  I didn't post them right away because I wanted people to get them first.  I suppose by now that they have... So since I discovered the WOYWW because of Lynn over at Spyders corner , it was only fair that I used one of her digis to do the ATCs ;)  So that's what I did.  I used the fabulous Purrfic day.  I did some paper piecing with some paper from Pixel Scrapper the paper is from brooke - gazarek.  I also used some DCWV paper animal print.  I kept to a very neutral color palette!
