Still out of town so here's a quick post so I have something new for you to see. I used another pre-colored beauty from Fred She Said. The set is called Pre-Colored Fall Flowers and Paper Pricking Template Sheet. I am so feeling the orange right now. Be sure to head on over to the Fred She Said Store to see what else Tracey has come up with.

Fred She Said Challenge
Here's a little something for the Fred She Said Challenge this week. The challenge for this month is to create a 3D gift for a loved one, pets included *LOL* This challenge will begin today and end on MAY 31st, the day before a new challenge will be posted! Please use the Mr. Linky widget below to fill out your entry. Please give the exact link to your post or photobucket/gallery image of your entry ( not just to your blog). It makes finding it a lot easier.
If you don't have a blog and would like to email your entry please send your card image with your name to Tracey and she will add your entry to the Mr. Linky as well as link it to a photobucket so others can see your wonderful projects. Please, one entry per person for this challenge.
The prize again this month is... a $20 gift certificate for the Fred She Said store! Be sure to use a FRED SHE SAID image somewhere on your card! If you don't have one, there are LOADS of freebies available HERE!
I used Rosey with a flower. This version came pre-colored. Just print and go. I love that!

Digital Tuesday Challenge
Welcome to another Digital Tuesday challenge! We are challenging you to make "Anything But A Card" This can be a bag or a box, a scrapbook page, an ATC etc. Anything you like as long as it's not a card. We have another great new sponsor this week: Some Odd Girl. The winner gets to choose 3 images of their choice!! Kristy also let the design team choose one of her images each to play with (thank you Kristy!)
I used the cute Round Belly Robot for my treat bag which started off as a card (see next photo). I didn't have time to create a new project so I had to quickly convert one that was done in a pinch. Have I mentioned that I LOVE digi's? I was able to size this little cutie to fit my needs.
Here's the original card:

Fred She Said Blog Hop
Welcome to our FOURTH "FRED SHE SAID" blog hop!!! If you just happened to drop by my blog and you are not aware of this wonderful event taking place, please go back to the "FRED SHE SAID" blog here and start your hop!
Along the way, please leave a comment on the blogs, follow the instructions at the end of the blog hop, at the Challenge blog, to make your entry and your name will go in for a drawing for a $20 Gift Certificate for the Fred She Said Store!
Here's the first part of my "Fred She Said" creation:
I started out with the Emma the Mermaid Coloured Set which came with a pre-coloured underwater background and several accessories. I re-sized my background to 6 inches in width and to make things really simple I resized the coloured sheet (included in the set) also to 6 inches so that all the images were resized at the same time. Then all I had to do was cut out the images and prep them for the background. My girls will definitely have fun creating their own scenes.
Here's what the background scene looks like when the accessories are added. If you want to really get more bang for your buck you can apply 2 way glue to the back of the accessory images or use removable tape so the images can be removed and applied again and again.
Here is a list of the blog hoppers in case you lose your way:
