Love you!

The challenge #68 at Color Me Creative has started this week and it ends on May 24 8:00 pm. Our sponsor for our challenge is Pretty Little Stamp and the image I used is called “love you” and you can win 5 image.

The card I made for this challenge is called a Surprise Pop Up Card and if you would like to try one here is the tutorial on how to make A Surprise Pop Up Card. Now there are two different Surprise Pop up cards so here is another one if this one is a little easier for you to try. They are both really awesome.

I tried to give you all the views of the card. I did not do the one that opens like a regular card, mine only slides.

The paper I used is from Bazzill basic huckle berry pie.

The slider moves real easy and the image stand up real nice.

My heart border is from stampin up it is their pinking heart border. Stampin up scalloped 1 1/4 and 1 1/2 scalloped punch for the sentiment. My hearts and the sentiment is also from stampin up stamp set called sprinkled expressions. The ink was memento bahama blue. The other sentiment I do not know who made that one. Sorry!

This what it look like from the back.  The punch I used for the corners is from creative memories.

I did have my image a little too big but that was ok, the next time I try the card I will make sure it will be the right size.

 

These are the copic markers used to color the image. I think this image is so adorable.

Thanks so much for stopping by. Happy crafting… If you should try one of the cards and have a question just let me know and I will help.♥

Birthday Wishes

The challenge at Cards for Men has started and for this challenge #10 it is all about fancy folds and my card has no special folds. All of the other ones did the fancy folds so you can stop by and see all their wonderful creations. No excuse.. for me! Other them my crazy sciatica nerve. I do have to say my dear friend Marie-Louise gave me the best advice she said to do stretching work out and I do have to thank her so much!!! It worked, I finally am pain free. Ladies if this ever happens to you and I hope not that is what you have to do and no matter how it hurts that is the only way you are going to get it to go away. It lasted for over 2 1/2 weeks and I had such a hard time sitting at my computer and even doing my cards. Thanks so much Marie-Louise, you really helped. 

Very simply card. Our sponsor for the challenge is Scribbled Kidz and you can win some images.

Distressed around the image with dried marigold ink. My papers are from my scraps. Added a button and some left over ribbon.

The middle of the card I used EK punches cupcake and candles border.

These are the copic markers used to color the image. Added stickles to the cake color grape and the candles added orange and yellow.

Shot and sweet. Thanks for stopping by.

It is that time of the week again for Delightful Thursday at Digital Delight all of the designers have worked so hard to show you more of the new releases. The images I used on my card are Sasha and pup and keeping in touch sentiment.  At The Outlaws Twisted Thursday challenge anything goes and the twist for the week is to dry emboss on your card. It is so hard to see my dry embossing (sorry) I did used cuttlebug provo craft floral fantasy folder.

I do have to tell up I started to make a pop up card and had some problems with the directions so I ended up making a easel card. Used floral oval from spellbinder to cut the image out. The paper used is from K & Co. Brenda Walton specialty paper. Sponged around the oval with brilliance ink color line.

Thanks so much for stopping by. Sorry I have not been around.. I have been having problems with my sciatica nerve for about a week and a half and been in so much pain it has been so hard to sit in my chair by my computer and even work on my cards. Anyone has any idea how I can get rid of this, I really need to know… Happy crafting..♥

 

 

Happy Birthday Suzanne!!!

Ok, Ok, Ok…. I’m so in trouble! I was to have this posted at 12:00am so it would be ready for this morning and for some reason I thought I had another day. I’m so sorry to all my friends on the design team at Color Me Creative, but I know Suanne will forgive (PLEASE).. ha ha! It is my dear friend Suzanne’s Birthday and every year we get together and do a theme and a blog hop in honor of Suzanne just because she is such a dear friend and our fearless leader at Color Me Creative.

So this year I picked Besties image she is called Miss May. Cut out the image with spellbinder lacy square die. The sentiment was punched out with stampin out their word label.  Colored the wings with gelly roll pens colors sky star and silver star.

Add some pearl pen color turquoise. Ribbon is from Michaels. Stampin up paper called Beau Chateau. Add an gem Emerald to her hand May’s birthday stone and May’s flower is Lily of the Vally, just thought you might want to know.

Now for all the tiny flowers the punches are Punch a Bunch mini sunflower, 8/flower, corner decoration 3D/5flower, corner decoration 3D/3, 8/tri leaf and the tiny butterfly is square picture 50/butterfly. Martha Steward Butterfly border and classic butterfly. Add the tiniest pearls to all the flowers.

We have just celebrated Suzanne’s 3 year of creating Color Me Creative classroom. I have to tell you I have been with her every step of the way. She has been my inspirations. When I first met Suzanne, I had some (50) or more copic markers all kinds of colors, numbers and letters. I had no idea what they all meant, but I would try and color with my pen and I was so unhappy with my coloring and I did not know why. I’m not a person to give up. When Suzanne started talking about classes she has my full attention and I could not wait for them to start. I did learn from Suzanne what the letters mean, numbers and how to buy the colors, boy was I surprised and I understood why I could not get anything to look good. Thought out these years we live miles apart but we have several opportunity to get together and if you read her blog she is real as crazy as she sounds but I have to say everyone has a blast and she is one of the most caring person I have ever meant. I’m so glad you are my friend. Here is too so many year to come! Happy Birthday!♥
So if you would like to see what the other girls have created you can follow the links.

Now hop along with us to enjoy more of the Design Team's creations for Suzanne.
