Crafting Vicky

I got to play with the fabulous Ebony Sea kissed digi from Lacy Sunshine.  She's just stunning. For this project I decided to make something a bit different.  I made a tag.  I used all kinds of different inks and sprays to make my own background and then I used an ink refresher on it.  It makes the tag feel almost like fabric... Hard to describe here...

Hello everyone, it's time for a new challenge over at  Lacy Sunshine challenge  and this time our challenge is super easy peasy!!!  It's dies and/or punches.

Goodevening!  I hope you had a great day! In my case it was ok... trying to do some powerpoint presentations... ughhhh so long... and not fun in the least lol.  When I see what everyone was up too during the day I really miss my studio! So I'm here tonight to share with you a card I made a little while ago with one of the awesome Lacy Sunshine images called Rosalind.  She's part of the moppet series.  You can purchase her here .

Our challenge for you this forthnight is to share your favorite things!!!  And for us over at  Lacy Sunshine  we have used our favorite digis. Now I have to tell the whole story... when we came up with the idea of using the digi that we wanted... Heather told me that she was sure I would use this opportunity to go the dark route... As you know she has some pretty amazing darker images.  And yes... I would have probably gone that way... but this conversation sounded like a challenge to me lol.  So I told her that I would go the cute and Christmasy route... I don't think she believed me at 1st... but here's my card with the great Snowdrop image.  You can see I really did go cute and Christmasy... at least that's my version of it.

Today it was a gorgeous day but still too cold for the beach... so we enjoyed some shopping at Barnes&Nobles, some new clothes for my daughter (all the stuff that we purchase here remind them of the vacation... so I'm a total sucker for that lol and I got some pretty good sales), we also went and purchased our ornament for this year's Christmas tree and it will be a Skunk (a cute little one)... now you might wonder why... well... we have seen a skunk around the campground this year... and last night at 11pm as I was going out to the restroom... I heard my neighbor tell me "watch out mam there's a skunk" sure enough she was under our bbq... so I hurried to the washroom but I knew I would have to come back.... and while coming back... it was in between my car and the kids tent.  Let's just say that I didn't go out again!!!! So...I'm back with another little creation from  Lacy Sunshine .  I had some all prepared and not blogged this was perfect for...

Goodmorning everyone!!!  It's time for a new challenge over at  Lacy Sunshine challenge . For this challenge I got to play with an image that was just perfect to represent my vacation going on right now.  Yup that's me taking it easy lol So I'm playing with the so cute Finkle - Wake up.

Hello everyone!  I'm back with a card I had made a few months ago for Lacy Sunshine but had not yet blogged.  I really love making cards but sometimes it's hard to find the time to blog them.  So I figured that while I'm camping I'm going to blog all the cards that I have done and not blogged yet. Heather has made the most awesome Melancholy Moppets .  They remind me of little ghosts and since I'm on vacation I've been reading some stories about ghosts and witches and such.  This reminded me of those cards not yet posted lol. This little Moppet is called Lilianna.

I'm back today with a great new digi from the fabulous  Lacy Sunshine .  The digi that I'm showcasing is called Pickles - The great & Powerful wizard.  It's from the new series that have just been released this weekend!!!

Oh I'm back... I had forgotten to post this card made with the fabulous digi Pickles - Mad Hatter!  This card was made for the fabulous anniversary celebration over at  Lacy Sunshine challenge . And this time our challenge is pretty special!!! It's time for celebrating the fabulous anniversary of Eleanor and Pickles!!!! How fun right. And to celebrate there are some pretty fabulous prize this time around. For the winner and you have to be playing with a Lacy Sunshine image to get this, you get the ENTIRE Eleanor & Pickles collection on CD!!!! How cool!!!! You really really want to play with us! So back to my little card just because I just love those images!  

I would like to start off by wishing a wonderful Mother's day to all the North American Moms out there! It's time for another challenge over at Lacy sunshine challenge blog  and this time it's anything but a square!  For my card I got to play with the wonderful new digi called Becky Beaver that you can purchase here .

Starting today May 1 thru 17th... all  proceeds from the sale of 4 special digi stamps... will be donated to Relay for Life's Team Fight Spirit! To me this is really special!  There's so many in my family that have been touched by cancer including my MIL who died last year from Colon Cancer.  My mom is a survivor of Breast cancer... it happened in 2010. So yes... totally want to do my part in getting the information out there! This one is called Zoe's love.  She is so very pretty!!!

Well you are in for an awesome surprise!!!  This time Lacy Sunshine is helping to fight Breast Cancer. Starting today May 1 thru 17th... all  proceeds from the sale of 4 special digi stamps... will be donated to Relay for Life's Team Fight Spirit!!!  This is one of the awesome digis.  It's called Fidget's Hope and you can find it here . I had so much fun creating with this awesome digi!  It's the perfect digi for some hope!!!  I used all pink this time for this occasion since it's for Breast cancer but it could have been colored in a different way for other causes.  Cancer does so much damage :(

Hello everyone!  So a few weeks ago I was one of the chosen 4 designers for a guest spot over at Raise the bar challenge .  So this is my post for it! This week the challenge is Friendship so this is just PERFECT because I was going to do a post for this card and it relates to friendship. Last week my wonderful web friend Lisa Decosse from Decosses dynamite doodles  started a new monthly challenge that you can find here .    This is about the path to positivity!  Well... she was going to enter a card of mine last week and well we argueed about it because to me it wasn't  inspirational or fitting to this positivity challenge.  I finally won!  Barely I might add because I told her I had something planned and would not do it if she entered my card lol hee hee hee.  And this is what I had planned! For those of you that don't know today is Lisa's B-Day!!!!!  HAPPY BIRTHDAY LISA!!!!!!  And this is the card that I made fo...

Good morning everyone!  It's time for another challenge over at  Lacy sunshine challenge blog .  This time it's Spring Fever - use spring colours and/or image. For this card I get to introduce a digi that I was able to name!!!!  WOOOHOOO and just hope you like the name lol... ohhhh... so much pressure!  I really really wouldn't want my digi not to be chosen because I gave it a bad name...  Please tell me you like it! So here's Gingle Flitterdrive and Thelma.

Hello everyone!!!!  I'm feeling better!!!!  Finally!  Thank you so much for all the wonderful positive thoughts sent my way ;)  So I just had to celebrate tonight... and what better way then making some cards lol So for this 1st one (yup I made 2...) I used the fabulous Winnie Watermelon that you can find here , she's one of the latest digi from the wonderful Heather Valentine.  And you can only purchase these images at  Lacy sunshine .

Good evening!  So how was your day?!?  Probably better than mine... yup I'm like the groundhog... I keep repeating myself... Tonight I came back home shivering... even if it was 10 degrees celcius I started up my seat warmer in the car to try to warm myself up!  I took a hot shower and some advils.  After that I was ready to color a bit before I go to bed! I'm pretty happy with how my card turned out actually!  Well to be honest I made 2... yup crazy right?!?  Must be the fever bringing extra mojo this time!  Well of course it could also be because Heather's digis are just soooooo adorable!!!  I did one that I can't show you yet... but the other I can ;)  So I will!  I did a card with the fabulous and so very sweet Mari Gold!  You can find her here .  And don't forget only Lacy Sunshine is the authorized store for Heather's images!  So if you find them elsewhere... well it's like buying stolen goods!  You wouldn't w...

Good evening everyone!  I'm feeling like CRAP!!!!  I went to work today... and by the end of the afternoon I had a major headache and the chivers... So took 2 advils as soon as I got home... feel better.  Well good enough to color a wonderful digi from Heather from  Lacy Sunshine  but can't show it yet... you will have to be back on Sunday for the new challenge ;) But don't  go yet... I did do a card yesterday that I can show you.  I created something with the awesome Violet!  And had soooo much fun with her.  You can find her here .
