Ike's challenge # 15 - Tickled Pink

Hello everyone!  I'm here to share the newest challenge over at Ike's World challenge blog.  Our challenge this time is Tickled pink.

For this challenge I decided to play with one of the digis from the Shoe set series There are 4 awesome possibilities in this set!

The one that I used is called blossom shoe and I thought it was perfect to make for a lady who's b-day is coming up and who adores shoes! And of course because of our challenge I used lots of pink :)

Ike's world challenge #13

Hello everyone!  It's time for a new challenge over at Ike's world challenge blog.  This time the challenge for you is Spring!  Yup we are longing for it as well!

For my card I used the fabulous blossom and I realized that this is the second day this week that I use this image!  Can you tell that to me this represent spring?!? :)

Path of Positivity - Midway post- Thoughtfulness

Hello everyone!!!  It's time for the midway point of the Thoughtfulness challenge over at Path of Positivity.

For this month's challenge our awesome sponsors are:

,

  ,  and 

For my 2nd creation I used a great image from Ike's Art called blossom.  I also used a great frame from Decosse Dynamite Doodles and a sentiment from Create with TLC.

I really wish I could give people who are thoughtful some flowers every time!!!  Those that open up doors when your hands are filled or for elderly and women with small children!  Thoughtfulness isn't only about the big things!  It can be some very small details.  And those small details can totally brighten up a day that might have been bleary.

Ike's world challenge blog - Anything goes

Hello everyone!  It's time for a new challenge over at Ike's world challenge blog and this time it's Anything goes!  But don't forget to win you have to use one of Ike's image.  But there's always a great freebie offered so you have no excuse not to use one!

For my card I decided to do something different!  I'm using a stamp image on the cover of the card from Art impression.  Just love those ladies and I thought they were perfect for a birthday card for my friend Cinzia her b-day was back at the end of November so she's had the card and I can now share it with you.  

So back to my story these ladies reminded me of us when we get chatting... on and on so much to say and never enough time lol.  So then I figured that when we are dead we will probably look like Ike's image Skellie Gossip.  I'm glad that Cinzia has a good sense of humor because her son thought I meant that she was getting old!!! lol Well she is she turned 40!!!  But it's still not THAT old lol  I thought he was so cute making that comment

So here's the top of the card

I used a lot of embellishments for me... it was a special card but I didn't  use the big 40 on the card... thought about it as an afterthought... but figured she would appreciate it missing lol and she did ;o)  The paper is from MME - Dwell.  I used my reverse wonky rectangle  and petite label one from spellbinder on this part.  I added some flourishes from Dee's distinctively flourish #2.  The ribbon, charm and flowers were in my stash.

Here's a closer look at the stamp colored with my copics and the sentiment from Create with TLC.

And then I finished up the inside as well something that I rarely do!  But as I said this was a special card and don't you think that this image reminds you of the ladies on the top?!?

I used again my reverse wonky rectangle as well as my grand label 1 all from Spellbinder.

Here's a closer look at the digi colored with my copics.  The sentiment is also from Art impression and it's a stamp that I got in a discount bin!  Just had to get it and I had been waiting to make this card to use it ;o)

Fun hey?!?  And Ike's has a bunch of fabulous image that can be used in all sorts of settings... so go on and check it out.

I'm entering this card in the following challenges:

1. Art impressions stamps - Expect the unexpected use something from your stash - used the ribbon, charm and flower.  The paper is also older.  And of course the stamps... they had just been sitting in my stash waiting for the right card!
2. C is for challenge - Cheers is for - Happy birthday!
3. Crafty boots challenges - anything goes
4. Digi sketch challenge - say it with flowers - didn't use the sketch
5. Incy wincy designs - 3 favorite embellishments - flowers, ribbon and charm

That's it for me for now!  I hope I'm still sleeping when this post goes up... I'm sick like a dog right now... and well hopefully will sleep better tonight than last night...

Hugs

Ike's world challenge blog - Christmas is coming

Hello everyone!  I'm here to share with you my 2nd post of the day.  This time my post for you is for Ikes world challenge blog.  And our challenge this time around is about Christmas is coming!

And I'm very sorry.... but I'm again playing with an exclusive image that Ike had done as a freebie... If you really like it... well I would suggest that you bug her so that she puts it in the store!!!  It was in my digis to play... and well it was calling my name and was just perfect for this card!  He's called snowman.

Ike's World challenge blog

Hello everyone!  This is the time for a new challenge over at Ike's world challenge.  And this time I'm on this blog because I'm doing a nice little Christmas card ;o)  So it can be shown on this side of my world.

The challenge that we have for you this time is winter is here.... yup... it's here all right... it was -10degrees celcius yesterday!!!  What a way to wake up on a Monday morning... so anyway I digress lol

For this card I used the great image Rockies from the set Canada Bundle.  I was soooo excited when Ike did this bundle so I'm super happy to be using this image.

Path of Positivity Challenge #8 - Midway point- Thankfulness

Hello!  Told you that I would be back lol.  Actually I'm back on the net while I'm probably driving back home... yup it takes me a whole lot longer now to get back home after work... I'm now 30 minutes further so it takes me about 1h to get to work and 1h back...an extra 1h per day... so 5h more per week!  Can you tell I'm not super pleased?... oh... yeah... right... it's supposed to be about Path of positivity Challenge and thankfulness... oooops... sorry about that ragging!

Ok so I'm thankfull that I actually work... and that all of us are all healthy and that all that I have to complain about is my lack of time and the extra traffic that I get to be in.  That's pretty awesome that this is my biggest issue!  There are so many that have so much more trouble health wise or financial wise!  So yes I'm very grateful for all that my family as been blessed with.  We work hard but we also get to enjoy it.

For this journal I played with the great Fall kat from Ike!  She's one of the awesome sponsors.  I used a quote from Decosse Dynamite called gratitude Unlocks quote and I added a little Autuman leaves fall patiently sticker from Create with TLC.

Ike's world challenge DT post - October 29 2013

Hello I'm here this time with another little bookmark but made Ike's world challenge blog.  My hubby was the only one without an Halloween bookmark so had to take care of that lol

Our challenge this time for you is Kritters!

And for this I used the great Dog ear 2 from the set Daft Dogz.

I decided to do what Ike does and I'm taking insiration from her... mind you it's not as great but it's a start.  So I transformed the sweet dog into a zombie that's got blog running down it's mouth.  I also printed the image twice to be able to pop up the snout.  I also added some glossy accent to the blood bwahahaha makes it look more real!!!

Couldn't have everyone from the team go sweet on you could I?!? ;o)

Path of Positivity - Challenge # 5 - Midway point

Good evening everyone!  Hope you had a fabulous day.  I'm here for the midway point of the challenge over at Path of Positivity.  And this time our challenge for you is Optimism.

For this post I used a digi from Ike called Pooch Leaf. I also used a sentiment that I had gotten over at Word Art Wednesday challenge.  I just loved that sentiment and I thought it was the perfect opportunity to use it.  As you know Optimism also comes from knowing good will be coming to you!  And the best thing is that you know one day (hopefully much later) you will get to meet our maker.  So no matter how bad he is there and ready for you.

So this is what I have to share with you in my journal this time

Eye see you - Pink - Just like a pill

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.

OSAAT- Challenge # 155

Hello everyone!  It's time for another challenge over at One stitch at a time.  And this time it's all about WHITE!!!!!

To me that challenge means YIKES!!!!!  I totally dread doing an all white card... always have and probably always will.  Now if you told me all in blacks and grays no problem there...

But then I had to play with one image from IKE... and she's so very talented that it ended up being much easier than I had anticipated ;)  For this card I used Snowdeer scene.  And yes it's a Z-fold card yet again... And what's really cool is that I got a Christmas card done as well!!!  How great right?!?

well it's not completely white... there's the deers... and I added silver... but is that really a color?!?  So for this card since white can be really boring I did some embossing with a cuttlebug folder.  I used my grand label 1 from Spellbinder.  The corners where done with snowflakes corner by Memory box.  The big snowflake is from impression obsession.  And that's it!!!

Here's a closer look at the fabulous scene!!!  So very peaceful.  I colored the deers with my copics and added some stickles to the snow.  The sentiment is from Create with TLC.  And I thought it was perfect with the deer... much prefer to chase snowflakes then deer...

Here's a side view of my card:

Cool right?  It looks better in person... But... I'm still not a fan of the all white for me!  I totally love to see what others do but it's really hard for me...

I'm entering this card in the following challenges:

1. Christmas at sweet stampin challenge blog - No red, no green
2. C.R.A.F.T. - Christmas

Hugs
