Hello everyone.  Yesterday the fantastic news came out that I had made it to the wonderful design team at  Digi darlas challenges .  They have the most amazing images to design with! And the team is made up of such talented ladies!!!!  As an introduction we were to make a card with one of their amazing digis.  I have used Courtin Caleb to make this card. I thought this was appropriate because I really wanted to say thank you for being part of this wonderful team.  I will also use this little card to thank one of my sons' teacher.  Yes, there are lots of those little thank you card required at this time of year.   I'm entering this card in the following challenges: Aud sentiments challenge  - sentiment Lawnscaping  - pattern papers Crafty calendar challenge  - flowers in bloom Send a smile 4 kids challenge  - bright colors Please come and play Tic Tac Toe this week with us at   Digi darlas challenges . I hope that you have liked my little creation.  Don

I did something tonight that I never do... I made something that is completely different than a card.  It's a journal.  This journal will be used to record our camping memories when we go to Vermont camping. I do scrap-booking... and since I'm quite a few years back I figured that it would be fun to have a recording of our 2 weeks of camping.  And of course it can be written by the adults, or my 4 kids.  Which will be fun at a later date to see their handwriting.  Of course since it's in the state Red, White and Blue where perfect colors for this project.   There are so many challenges going on with this color I thought it would be great fun. Here's my journal before I started out: I bought this at the dollar store for 2$.  I then went all out with the paper and the stamp ;) And this is what happened: I used a bunch of leftover paper from all kinds of project including some paper from my Disney scrapbooking album.  I used a CM shape to cut that paper out.

It's so much fun creating in design team.  You get to meet many wonderful and talented individuals.  I can't say ladies... because one of my team has a man ;)  Hello Marc. Within  Tammy scrapin corner  there's a wonderful lady Sassy Raggedy  that makes amazing circle cards.  I've been looking at them for awhile now and finally decided to give it a try.  There was a few challenges that I wanted to enter and this card would do perfectly. Here's my card: This is Butterfly Bliss from Delicious Doodles.  I got it at Stitchy Bear Stamps.  They have such amazing looking digis.  I really love to color them.  This one was colored with copics.  I added copper stickles to the butterflies.  And used a cc die for the other 2 butterflies that are added with a bit of bling.  I also used a spellbinder lacey circle and some leaves under the flower.  The other 2 circles were cut with my circle shape from Creative Memories. Here's a closer look at the image: And of

This week at  Tammy scrapin corner  we are being sponsored by  This time our challenge is one for the girls!  Sooooo many possibilities as you can see if you go and check out the wonderful work from my other DT friends!  They have done a terrific job.  Hope you go and let them know. This is my take: This time I have used Scene it - Angels believe from Bugaboo Stamps.  I thought that every girl needs to believe more in herself...My daughter is one of them and that's why I created this card.  I used my CM star border punch to do the border.  And of course I used tons on stickles both on the wings and on the stars.  I also copied the image twice so that I could pop up the angels, the stars and some clouds.  You can see it better here: It was soooo much fun to color as are all the images from Bugaboo.  I so very much {heart} their images. I'm entering this card in the following challenges: Catch the bug blog  - Anything goes Little miss muffet challenges  -

This is my last card for the night I think.... we will see... My SIL asked me for a father's day card for my brother.  He's a real fan of Comic strips since he was a kid.  Actually he gave a bunch to his godson who happens to be my oldest child.  So I borrowed from Andrew one of those comics and copied one page unto a cardboard to make the design paper in the back. I used a digi from Bugaboo called Guysuper.  I thought this was really appropriate for a few reason.  One being that I was doing a superhero type card.  The second being that my brother and SIL just had twins!!!!  So yes they are both super heroes to me! I truly hope that she likes what I created for her. I'm entering this card in the following challenges: Catch the bug blog - Anything goes Simon says stamps challenge  - Anything goes Stampin royalty  - masculine card What do you think of my card?  Please leave some comments!  So love reading them.  And would love to see new followers ;)
