Fishing

So I'm back.... yeah... I'm waiting for my son to get ready to leave and do some last errands while we are in Burlington... but while we wait... I figured I might as well use the time to blog a little journal page that I embellished with 2 sets from  Imagine that . My hubby, daughter and youngest went fishing with a camping neighbor and caught a great big grey trout!  So I wanted to put this in the journal but it was missing some embellishments!  So I used the fab set here  Punny Bass Geeks The great outdoors Here's my journal page with it.  I covered the face of my son with my watermark... not to fond of my kids picture being on the net... I'm sure that you get that!  But you can see how big the fish was! And here's a closer look at the great sign from the great outdoors set: And the closer look at the other set of image and sentiment I'm entering this little fishing trip in the following challenges: Brown sugar challenge  - For the b

Hello!  I'm back today after a pretty busy day!  We had my mom over at the camp site!  It was great fun but at the same time organisation to make sure that everything is ok! So now I'm here to share with you a little card that I did to thank our camping neighbors for having my kids do a sail on their sail boat and for bringing us a great blueberry and chocolate bread :)  That's the awesome thing about being able to bring some craft material here! So here's my card with the great freebie digi from a new artist that I found on  Kit and Clowder , you should be part of this group.  The new artist as a brand new page here  Cheri Lyn art The cute digi is called Karleigh Sue Digi take the time to smell the flowers.  I colored her up but wasn't going to put her on a card before getting home...

At the beach - vacation journal

Image
Hello everyone! I'm back and I'm sharing one of the 2 new pages that I did for the beach portion of our vacation/camping journal. We've been pretty lucky this week it's been beautiful except for one day that was used shopping... so I had to do many little beach embellishments for my journal. Here's the 1st one using a brand new Scribbles Design image called Carrie Summer Diva - She's a new released digi. She's such a perfect image for this type of journal!

Pigtail Gabby

Image
I'm baaaaack!  But I promise this is the last post of the night... well actually there's a preprogrammed post at midnight... but that doesn't count right?!? 'Cause it won't be live... Ok so one of the other image that I colored yesterday and made into a card today is from the awesome  Sassy Cheryl  I have lots of her digi stamps and some actual rubber stamps from Kraftin Kimmies... and I don't get to use them enough!!!  So I really wanted to do so during this vacation and this little cutie Pigtail Gabby had been printed and not colored!  So it was the perfect time to do so and put her on a card today. Mind you... I could have waited to put her on a card because with my camping... there's not a lot of embellishments and everything takes much longer because I have even less room to manoeuvre than at home... but I made one anyway. Because it's summer and I'm on vacation I really wanted a bright and cheerful one! And I think I managed pretty g

Bumble bee girl

Image
Told you I would be back!  And this time it's for another cutie from  Dilly Bean .  The no DP challenge was too hard to resist since I have hardly any supplies while camping... it was just the perfect challenge for me... and let me have fun coloring! So this time I used the very cute 197 Framed bumble bee girlie and I went with a bumblebee theme!  Could have also been a wasp theme... my daughter was stung by one while I was coloring yesterday... :(  She's ok... but they are really annoying.. we don't  have a lot here on the campground but just enough I guess...

The End - Oddball style

Hello everyone!  Hope you are doing well!  I've been having a wonderful time at the beach!  It's been sooo hot this week we are extremely lucky and I'm getting a nice tan! :) I have journal our camping as you know... actually I will have more to share with you on that... but right now I'm starting with the end!  I had purchased some fabulous images from Oddball design prior to my coming here.  My intention was to color some and of course try to enter in a challenge on the FB page.  Well the challenge right now is Anything goes but try something new... so... Oddball use is new to me... and using so many digis in a journal is also new to me.  One of the images Lizzy Love image 19 was sooo sad looking that I thought it would be perfect for the end of my journal.  And this is why even if the end is not yet here (approaching but not here YET) I journalled it :) So here's my smash album! I used my word document to make the writing.  And just cut it out after. Here

A unique blog hop - Getting to know your creative side

Image
Hello everyone!  It's Monday!  But that's ok because I'm still on vacation lol.  So I'm here today to share with you a special hop. I was tagged for this hop by my good friend and co-blog owner for  Open Minded Crafting Fun  yup you guessed it the fabulously talented Susan Kennedy of  Scrap a thousand words .  She tagged me on this post here . So let's start with how I met this incredible woman!  She was on one of the very 1st team that I join which was Tammy's Scrapin corner.  And wow I just admired her work.  Not only was she super talented she's incredibly nice and sweet.  I don't think there's anything that this woman can't do at least art wise... She draws her very own digi (well her, her spouse and her kids).  You can find those in her store here .  Susan can't seem to do a simple card... she just layers and decoupage like crazy and ends up with such gorgeous projects.  When Tammy mentioned that she was wanting to shut the challenge
