Crafting Vicky

I'm so very excited!  This is my 1st DT post for  Tammy scrapin corner .  This week our amazing sponsor is  Bugaboo stamps      you know how much I really {heart} their images ;)  This was so much fun for me. This is challenge #9 and it's show me those punches and/or Die cuts. I chose for this card to do a card for my mother-in-law.  As my followers know she is dying as we speak from cancer.  This will be her last Mother's day.  So I wanted to create something special for her.  She was such an inspiration for me that I thought I would use my very 1st DT card for her!   I used both punches and dies on my card and will describe afterwards. I really love using digis because you can do all sort of cool things with them.  I needed another ladybug to represent us (we are a family of 6).  So I used the 3rd ladybug and reversed it so it would be facing the other ones.  You can see it at the bottom left corner. I also really stacked my ladybugs.  You can see it bet

This is my last post for the weekend.  It was great fun.  I got to spend time with friends at a crop and I also got to spend time in the blog world with lots of great people. I'm so excited... tomorrow morning will be my 1st post as a DT for  Tammy scrapin corner .  Hope you will come and check out the challenge blog and my inspiration card ;) Here's my latest card: I used Kraftin Kimmie's Rebecca Raspberry for this.  I also used my nestabilities for the square and the wonky rectangle. I was inspired by this picture: I just loved all the little frills as the icing.  It reminded me of Rebecca's skirt. And I used this great sketch: I'm entering this one in the following challenges: The paper players  - inspiration picture - mother's day Card positioning systems  - Sketch Kraftin kimmie stamps  - Mother's day I hope you guys had a great weekend.  It's back to work tomorrow... quarter end... so Powerpoint presentation :(  And since

Well... I started out wanting to create another mother's day card... but in the end it could be for any occasion lol.  It was too pretty without the sentiment.  So I decided to let it be what it wanted. I have use a wonderful freebie from a few weeks back from Bugaboo, for those who are not followers and haven't read previous post, I really really {heart} bugaboo digis ;)))  I used my scallop and standard circles to make the image and used stickles on the wings of the butterfly. I used this wonderful sketch for making my card: I will be entering this card in the following challenges: Catch the bug blog  - Anything goes Robyns fetish challenge blog  - Blue with bows and button (I did the bow with the button ;))) ) Card patterns  - Sketch Dutchdare  - Spring has sprung I'm having such a blast ;)  Hope you are liking what you see.

As mentioned in my previous post I would like to have a few mother's day card ready for this week.  I figure there might be a few colleague who need them last minute. I had gotten a few weeks ago a great digi from  Stitchy bear stamps .  They have wonderful artist.  This one is from Floppy Latte Design and it's called Over the top from the hat silhouette series. I used the new technique that I had learned yesterday with Stardust Jewel glitter ritz. I followed this sketch: I'm entering this card in the following challenges: One stitch at a time challenge  - mother's day with digi Deconstructing jen  - Sketch Ok going back for some more creating ;) Vicky xo
