This week at  Digidarlas  the challenge is the alphabet.  You have to find a letter and do a card that will have something that represent that letter. For my card I went with the letter "B" for Bird!!!! For my card I totally went the lazy route!!!  I found a wonderful digi called Cardinal on Lamp post and chose the colored version :D   But then... I went die crazy... so it ended up taking me more time I think to make the card then usual lol. The paper that I chose for this card is from Basic Grey - Nordic Holiday.  I used my Classic square large, my fleur de lis square and one of the fancy tags 2 from Spellbinder.  I used memory box snowflake border as well as the corner piece.  And I used Nesting ovals by quitcutz for the label.  I added some Robin's nest dew drops and some green gems for more sparkle. Here's a closer look at the wonderful digi.  You can see the shine of the stickles that I added to the lamp post. I added a perfect sentiment for this

I made 2 cards again lol :D  The 1st one was with this cuuuute little digi from Digital Delights.  It's called Mr Skelly.  He was sooooo fun to color up!!!! 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. Here's a closer look at the fabulous sentiment from  Create with TLC .  I used some ripe persimmon distress ink around it.  It was cut using my label 14. For my 2nd

A few weeks back I came across the cuuuuuutest little stamp series from Darcie's Heart & Home at my local craft store Scrapbook Centrale.  Now... I don't  use a lot of stamps anymore... but I knew that I just HAD to purchase those.  So I purchased all 3 sets... and the little funny little faces that go with them. They also sell the papers, but I knew that I had lots and that I would want to put my own twist to them... not make them exactly as displayed (what's the fun in that lol at least for me...) So I found a great sketch to follow over at Inspired by stamping and just started creating.  Plus I had made a promise to an on-line friend to participate in some challenges :D  (hope you recognize yourself NanaConnie). For this card I used some paper from Basic Grey - Nordic Holiday.  I used some DCWV- premium cardstock for the glossy blue paper (it's really shiny and really doesn't show much with the camera).  I used Large deckled rectangle to cut out the s

For my 3rd card for the night I'm going back to some Halloween creation.  Yesterday I did the blog hop over at Sassy studio the DT's had such wonderful inspiration that I really wanted to participate in their Halloween bingo.  So I decided to play :D Here's my card. For this card I used some papers from DCWV - Midnight Spell.  I added some die cuts the circle is the standard circle and I used Impression obsession fence die.  The cat, spider and tombstones are all stickers that I purchased yesterday at the dollar store prior to knowing that I would be making this card :D.  Totally love when my purchases come in handy. Here's a closer look at the digi that I colored using my copics as well as pearlescent chalk from Pebbles  to give the glow of the moon.  This is my 1st time doing green hair... and I really liked it!!!  The sentiment is from  Create with TLC I'm entering this card in these challenges: Sassy studio designs  - bingo ( I used fe

Hello everyone.  Hope you all had a wonderful weekend!  Mine was really good.  Yesterday I went to bring my daughter to volunteer work... did the chores and then had lots of fun with the Rick St-Denis party!!!!  Got to win some prizes as well including a wonderful discount that I'm dying to use lol. Today since it was raining I got lots of crafting done (well yesterday was fun but not much crafting when you are on the net lol).  So today I made 6 cards!!!!  And there's 4 that I can show you.  But I'll do so in separate posts just to keep you waiting lol :D So for my 1st one it's a card that I made just because I really really wanted to play along at SK digis.  I had prepared my images but had not made the card... and yikes there was only 1 more day to join so I figured I better get cracking!!!  So here's my card using 2 of Silly ghost freebies from Sk digis!!!  I switched it around to have the double... :D For this card I used paper from Authentique - Glo

This week at One stitch at a time challenge  our challenge is music or a song. Now I always have trouble with this type of challenge... I can never find anything that is appropriate!  But this time I found my inspiration right away.  My image is Fallen from Delicious Doodle. One of my favorite artist is Sarah Mclachlan, she's a very talented Canadian Singer and she has a song called Fallen  (you can see the video at the bottom of my post.  So that was my inspiration. I used paper from DCWV - immortal love.  The embossing folder is from Cuttlebug it's tiny bubbles.  I added some Robin's Nest Dew drops.   Here's a closer look at the digi that I colored using my copics.  I added a bit of Stickles to the beautiful wings. Here's a closer look at the beautiful rose that I paired with some Kraft die cut leaves. And here's a closer look at the sentiment written directly on the paper (it was just perfect for this challenge). Here's the vide
