Fearless and strong lady

Using this fabulous new set:

Here's my take with this fabulous set perfect for strong women!!!

To make this I used some paper from Scrapper's delight Mother's nature paper 2.  It's my go to place for some fabulous digital embellishments!!!!

I'm entering this in the following challenges:

Classy Sassy

I'm here to share with you a little totally 100% digital card with you.  I used the fabulous image from Create with TLC that's part of this great set:

To make this I really went all out :) I used some elements from Decosse Dynamite Doodle - Living on the edge  Aurulent paper, I used the December Delights frame 1, ATGB November tag and ATGB_paper_plaid.  I changed some of the colors using word's color function (yup I'm not too sophisticated... but it works lol

I added some Scrapper's Delight digital elements from Mother Nature, Papillons and from Morning dew set.  Yup all 3 sets!!! They are totally awesome!!!  I also changed some of the colors to fit my digital card.

I really hope that you like this digital composition.  I thought it was great for Valentine's day as well with the little heart :)  Should have printed it out... but ran out of time lol but now I got if all ready for next year!!!

Smeared and smudged ATC

Hello everyone!!!  Well I should be starting to feel a lot better right?!?  Well tell that to my body that was super tired... and that is still having issues with that @#$@#%#% bug!!!  Man will it ever leave where it came from?!?  My hubby came back from work and he's still got the chills as well.  I'm telling you it could be a movie of the bug that didn't want to leave!!!

Anyway, I had to do my ATC for the Smeared and smudged forum... This month there's 9 of them.

Since I knew that I wasn't in much shape at all... I did colored my fabulous cupid grumpie (a freebie if you signed up for the ATC swap) and then scanned him.  I have to admit the little grumpies are one of my favorite stamps/digis!!!!  I then removed the background to be able to put him digitally over another background.  I also got my fabulous cds from Jem's Design today!!! YAY  the cds are totally AWESOME!!!  And so I used my Enigma CD (they are all on sale right now!) for the background. It's just PERFECT for this ATC!!!!  So you can see on the picture the original that I had colored with my copics.  When I scanned it I lost some of that intensity... oh well at least I can still use that one on a card :)

So those are my 9 ATCs.  I used as I said my new Enigma CD from Jem's Design.  I added a sentiment from Create with TLC it's a new freebie called Happy Valentines Devil.  Unfortunately I turned it to red to use on my ATC and the last bit doesn't show as much as it should... :(  I also added 2 little roses from Scrapper's Delight from the Wonderland Element kit!  I'm really loving those digital element kits especially when sick!!!

Here's a closer look at one.  You can see just above how bright those colors should have been :(  But you can also see the detail of the fabulous background paper!!! LOOOOVE that new CD!!!

I'm entering these little ATC in the following challenges:

1. Wicked wednesday atc - Valentine's day
2. Smeared and smudged - anything goes - Smeared ink.
3. Filipino scrapbookers challenge - ATC - Valentine theme

Hope you have liked them!!! :)  And if you would have liked to play with us you really should be on the forum with us :)

OSAAT challenge # 195

And while you are there... there's a DT call going on!!!  So check it out!!!

So for my make I used the great digi Fairy Day Dream from Scrapper's Delight.  I totally adore those digis!!! I used it to make my mom's B-day card!  She loves all things to do with nature... and this little fairy is just hte right thing right?!?  I figured that this fits for this challenge because a birthday is a new start of a new year right?!?  So that would qualify!!!

Beach Babe

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 challenge.  It's a great digi from Scrapper's delight  called Beach Babe.  And you have until the 30th to enter... but this week was my month end and with the plumbing incident... let's just say I didn't craft!  So this is the time... it's a bit harder because my material is all over the downstairs.  But it was great to color again.

I used for this card paper from Authentique - Glowing (you have seen me use it a lot... just looove it).  I added a ribbon that I purchased at Michael's.  I made the stick pin for this card.  Thought it went well with the little skeleton :D

Here's a closer look at the digi that I colored using my copics.

For my 2nd card I used a beautiful digi from Scrapper's Delight.  She's called Autumn Nymph 2.

I used for this card another one of my favorite packs of paper for this season.  It's Bobunny - Apple cider.  I used a lot of different dies for this card.  Grand circle and grand scallop circle as well as the standard large circle and scallop circle and the folliage (top under flower) from Spellbinder.  I used Marianne creatables as well for the embellishments.  The flower is from my stash.

The image I colored with my copics and added some stickles to the wonderful wings.  I used Old paper distress ink around the digi as well as the sentiment.

Here's a close up of the sentiment that I chose to use from Create with TLC.  There are so many wonderful ones... hard to choose lol

Tammy's Scraping Corner - Challenge # 26

Hello All!  This week at Tammy's Scrapin corner our challenge is anything with wings!  I just love this theme!!!  I'm a big fan of angel, fairies, dragons and butterflies!  So to me this is perfect... but this could also apply to planes, birds, etc. Anything with wings!

Our sponsors this week are
 and 

My first card is a creation that I made using Boy Angel from Eureka Stamps.  I just love this sweet boy he really reminded me of one of my 3 boys with that sweet smile but devious look in his eyes lol and of course that sling shot and frog :D

I used for this card Alora Collection from Bobunny.  I have used lots and lots of dies on this card: Fancy tag 3, Label 4 and  grand label 4.  I have added some Robin's nest dew drops.  The ribbon is from the dollar store.

To color this wonderful digi I used copics, Broken china distress ink for the sky, and the cloud is made using liquid pearl!  I really think it gives a fluffy look to this!!!  I added stickles to his wings and the little angel crown.

I was wondering which saying to use for this card!  I made my own you can find it later in the post.  It means "Angels also have their demons and demons their angels"  I thought it was perfect for an angel with a slingshot!!!:

I added a little angel charm :D  If you like it and would like one there is still time to enter my follower candy here.

Here is the sentiment is you want it.  I have found that it's hard to get French sentiment so I had to research to find one that was fitting.  If you use it please send people over to my blog  and don't  share on websites :D.

This is my 2nd card!  I made this one with Draco 4 from Scrapper's Delight that I paired with an amazing sentiment from TLC called Dragon a Little. 

To make this card I used lots of paper DCWV- premium cardstock, K&cie - designer mat pad and Little yellow bicycle - count your many blessings.  I used Candi from Craftwork card bought at a little local store in Essex Vermont (every time I use stuff that purchased on my vacation I'm reminded of it :D).  I also used a bunch of wonderful dies - Classic rectangle, Long classic rectangle, Label 23.  I have made the border using my CM border punch.

I went with all green color combination because I thought this was perfect for someone not feeling well :D  I colored the digi with my copics and added some distress ink Pealed paint.

Here's a closer look at the wonderful sentiment from TLC.  I thought this was just perfect for this card.

To make this card I followed this wonderful sketch from Carly :

How cool is that!!!  I used one of the wonderful digi for my card it's Rose Petal 3.  It comes in different choices, colored or not.  I used the not colored so that I could color it up myself with my copics.  I soooo love using them.  And you can find them at Markers POP.

To make this card I used the paper from Daydream - first edition.  I used many from the same pack... just looooove that sparkly paper.  The picture really doesn't do the card justice.  I used some Robin's Nest dew drops.  The flowers are from a thrift shop around here.  I removed the stem and replaced it with some brads.  I also used foliage die cut from spellbinder to cut and emboss the leaves.  The sentiment is from Hero Art CL184 and I used distress peeled paint on it.
