Last night I did a card that was very long to do.... the type of card that I don't usually do at all which is multifolds. I had a request to make a card for someone for their 50th birthday.  There was soooo much that I was supposed to put on it that I really couldn't do that with a simple card.  It would have been overwhelming.  So after much thought I figured that doing an accordeon style card would solve my issu. I have lots of stamps from Kraftin Kimmie and the ones that I have used are some that had never been inked...yeah... pretty bad!  I've been using loooots of digis and forgetting about my other beautiful stamps!  Here's the card closed.  I used Mandy on the top to represent staying zen and exercising. Here's the look when opened. From above.  The panels to write the message are back of the 2nd V.  This way when the card is closed the message doesn't show.  My signature to this card is part of the 1st V.  This is on the second pane

I received an order for a father's day card for the daddy from the little girl Romane.  I have done a birthday card a few post earlier this month. Romane and her dad love to go bike together.  She's turning 2 soon so she goes on the same bike.  But I couldn't find any images for this.  And while looking at the fabulous digis at Digi Darla I came across Briannas bike.  Sooooo cuuuuute!  Just had to create something with her.  And I thought it would be perfect for this occasion.  I used some wonderful nestabilities one of them being my fabulous square fleur de lis and some corner embellishments... don't know the name I put the package away and didn't keep the name :(  But they are lovely no?!?  I also used Robin's nest dew drops. I have colored her with copics and used my blender to add little spots to the dress. I followed the following sketch:   I'm entering the following challenges with this little card: Digi darlas  - Let&#

Today it's anything goes at  Tammy scrapin corner . Our sponsor is My Heart Pieces digital. We really have amazing sponsors!!!  So you should really join in the fun to win ;) For my card I chose 2 artist that I really adore!  I discovered them about the time I discovered the blog world this spring.  Yes... I was oblivious of this wonderful world.  And now I'm almost at 100 posts already lol I combined Kozo the clown from Spyders corner.  You can purchase some digi from her site:  dragonsmoore . And the sentiment from   Scribbles by sandy .  Both sites have had wonderful freebies as well.  Unfortunately Lyn at Spyders corner recently had a really bad experience... people posting her wonderful freebies on public sites!  So not sure that she will have more for us.  But in the case of both of these artists their digis are not expensive!  So you really should go and check up their work and encourage them. Kozo was so much fun to color up since he's wearing clothes
