Winnie and Funky Fairy's

Here's a card that I made a couple of weeks ago. The digital image is from Willow Designs. The images in the set come colored and non-colored. I thought I'd try a pre-colored image and have to say that it really makes it quick and easy. Of course I love to color so you won't see too many pre-colored images here. I shouldn't have check the site because there are some cute new Winnie images. I am trying so hard not to click on the Add to Cart button. That adorable paper (polka dotted and floral) is from Funky Fairy's Papercrafts and yes it is digital. The set is called Just a Bit. There is also a coordinated alphabet set that you can purchase as well. What fabulous colors.

Shirleys 2 Girls Blog Hop

Welcome to the very first Shirley’s 2 Girls Blog Hop! Today Shirley’s 2 Girls is releasing 15 of new images that all revolve around babies and mothers. To celebrate this release, we invite you to hop along with the Shirley’s 2 Girls’ Ladies With Attitude, as well as two of our Ladies With Attitude Guest Designers. The Hop begins at the Ladies With Attitude Blog where you’ll find the guidelines on how to win the Grand Prize.

So, if you started here on my blog, you need to hop on over to the Ladies With Attitude Blog FIRST for all the rules and regulations. If you have already visited the Ladies with Attitude blog and and this is your second stop you are on your way.

Here's my first sample. I used the adorable Cutie Patootie (SG 70) image as well as the Announcing with Flower SG 74 image on this one. The bookmark announcement pulls out of the designer paper pocket. This image almost makes me want to have another little one -ALMOST



For my second project I used the Bro/Sis Banner image SG 69 and one of the new digi papers "rattle" called Peek A Boo DGP2. I ended up cutting out the center panel from the banner so I could frame my sentiment and add dimension. I'm just that kind of gal. There are lots of possibilities for this one.




In order to be eligible for the GRAND prize at the end of the Blog Hop, please leave a comment here on my blog, and then hop on over to the next Lady With Attitude,

Fabulous

I thought I'd post something a little different today and something that doesn't include the color pink :) When I saw this My Minds Eye paper I knew I had to get it just to cut out the flowers. All in all the card still measures 4.25 X 5.5 inches so it will fit in a standard sized envie. The sentiment is from The Cutting Cafe and is called Chunky Praise Phrases. Since my flower image was so large I decided to only use a portion of the phrase and printed it directly onto my designer paper. This card was definitely quick and easy. I definitely need more of that.

Digital Tuesday Challenge - Teacher Appreciation

Today's card was made for today's Digital Tuesday Challenge. This weeks theme is Thank a teacher. I used a couple of digital images for this one. The library card is from Lindsay at The Frugal Crafter. The great thing about it is that it can be resized and printed over and over again. No need to worry about stamping it straight and no smearing! The girl image is from a picasa web album that I found. I'll try to upload the link later today. I didn't have time to create a digi sentiment so I used SU's Trendy Trees. Wanna join in on the fun? The same rules apply this week: you may create anything you want, but you have to use at least one digital stamp on your project. (No company restriction!) This week Digital Stamp Oasis will be giving away 3 images of choice to one lucky winner. To have a chance at winning post a comment with a link to your card on the Digital Tuesday Challenge blog.

Hula Sophie

Here's a quick and simple card using Hanna Stamps -Hula Sophie. I found these adorable little flowers at the LSS and had to get them. I used my Memory Maker's Chloes Closet papers. I'm trying really hard to use paper scraps more often because they are really starting to pile up. I know there are a few of you out there that can relate. Anyway, Happy Monday.

Welcome Baby

I don't make baby cards that often and when I do boy do I struggle. I think making masculine cards is easier. I never thought I'd say that. Anyway I used my new baby set from Squigglefly. There are several images to choose from in the set and since they are digital you can pretty much do just about anything. Don't forget to check out Squigglefly's every day in May. A new image will be released each day. How exciting is that?
