Happy Sunday afternoon, everyone!   I have a new card to share with you today!   It is for the Deedee's Digis challenge.  This is a monthly progressive challenge.  If you enter the challenge every month, you automatically get the next month's digs free!   How great is that?  Just buy it the first time, and then enter every month!   It is a fabulous deal!

Isn't this little guy, cool?  He is just chillaxing in his tub of ice cubes!

I colored him with Copics, cut him out with a SB die and mounted him on a piece of Shimmer  Sheetz!   This stuff is awesome!   It is so sparkly and shiny, and changes color in the light.   It also embosses really well, but this time I did not emboss it.  This was then mounted on a sheet of purple card stock and then on the striped paper with a bit of Washi tape to add some visual interest.

I added Glossy Accents to the ice cubes, and some Perfect Pearls to the feet and beak of the little penguin.   

Inside I used one of the sentiments that came with the set and just mounted it on the same purple card stock, and added some more of the same Washi tape.

I hope you will stop by Deedee's Digis, and join in on the fun!

Thanks for stopping by!

Have a great week!

Wow, its the middle of July already!  What is your favorite summer activity?  What do you like to do in the "Good Old Summer Time"?  That is the twist this week at the Outlawz Twisted Thursday Challenge!   The challenge is, as always..."Anything Goes...with the twist being...In the Good Old Summer Time"!   I'm sure we will see lots of interesting ideas this week!  I can't wait to see what everyone makes!

I chose this adorable image by Anne Fenton called "Freddie's BarBQ"!  It just looked so summery to me!   He is sitting on his Lily pad catching bugs!

I colored the image with my Copic Pens.   I used Gelatos to make the setting sun and sky background.   I also added some Gelatos to the water over top of the Copics.   I wasn't sure if that would work, but it does!  I was able to add the purple mauve color to the water this way.  Little Freddie has some Stickles added to the spots on his back, and I added some cut out butterflies and dragonflies, and a bit of greenery to the scene.

Inside I just added some more die cuts from a SB die.

I hope you will stop by the Outlawz this week and join our fun challenge!

Did everyone have a nice 4th of July?   I hope all your celebrations went well!
Summer is moving right along, and this week at the Outlawz, the Twisted Thursday Challenge is "Anything Goes...with the Twist being...Fun In The Sun"!  There are so many ways to go with this fun challenge!   I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with!

I used this super cute golf girl from Anne Fenton, who happens to be one of our awesome sponsors this month, along with Paper Temptress!

I colored her with my Copic Pens, used a SB die to cut the image out, then matted it on black, added a sentiment, and then some Dazzle stickers along the edges, in white!   I thought these stickers looked like lace.   I also added some pearls to each corner of the black layer and a fun gingham bow!

The inside has more of the same background paper, cut with a Martha Stewart edge punch and a SB die!

I hope you find time to join us at the Outlawz this week!

Thanks for stopping by!

Tomorrow is the 4th of July, and I hope everyone has some great plans to celebrate!  It's July and hot, so probably the last thing you are thinking about is Christmas, but start thinking snow and Christmas, because the new Twisted Thursday challenge over at the Outlawz is "Anything Goes...with the twist being...Christmas in July"!  It will be fun to get out all that Christmas paper and bling to make a card!     It also gives you a chance to get a head start on making all those holiday cards!

I chose to use this Christmas Bow design by Anne Fenton, who is one of our sponsors this month!  

I colored the image with my Copic pens, added some Stickles to the bow and leaves, and Glossy Accents to the holly berries.  I used a SB die to cut  layers of scalloped circles, in Christmas papers, that were then mounted to a square piece of Christmas paper.  A red glitter paper bow was added and a Pointsettia flower was added to the corner.

 Inside there is a Christmas paper die cut, layered on top of some matching paper.   The Merry Christmas was cut with a die.  Three gemstones were added to give the easel card a way to stay open.

Here we are at the end of June, already!   Why is it that summer just flies by?  I hope everyone is having some relaxing summer fun!   The Twisted Thursday Challenge over at the Outlawz this week is a fun easy one.   The challenge is, as always..."Anything Goes....with the twist being....Anything Goes"!  So anything works!  I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with!

I used Bestie Image #830.   Doesn't she look cool and relaxed?  I colored her with Copic pens and used water soluble crayons to color the water background.  They are fun to work with.  I added some dimensional stickers....the wave and the sandy beach.  I used an embossed dark blue background layer, a die cut of a Palm tree, and letters that say Relax, on the right hand side.   They are glittered and kind of hard to see in the picture.

Inside I added some wave borders, another palm tree, some fish and a sticker that says...

"Its 5 o'clock Somewhere", along with a Margarita!   It seems like a perfect summer day!

Hi everyone, I hope you are all enjoying some nice summer weather!   I have a new card to share today for Deedee's Digis challenge!  This is such a fun progressive challenge to enter!

This cute image is just one of this month's images with which to work!   Isn't she cute?

I colored her with my Copic Pens and cut two scalloped circles using SB dies.  I added some sea gulls  to the air, and some glitter paper to the water!   I then mounted the image on a wobbler, so it looks like she is bobbing on the water!

Deedee's images come with the cutest sentiments!

I hope you will check out and enter the challenge going on over at Deedee's Digis!

Thanks for stopping in!

Have a great day!

It is almost the first day  of summer and I am sure everyone is very happy about that!  I hope summer weather has arrived in your area!   Well, it is Thursday, so that means a new Twisted Thursday challenge starts today over at the Outlawz!  The theme for this week is as always...."Anything Goes...with the twist being....First Day Of Summer!"  There are so many fun things you can do with this theme!   I had a hard time deciding which way to go with this one, but finally decided on this!

This is Bestie image 831!  Isn't she cute!!  I remember loving these kinds of inner tubes when I was a kid!  I colored her with my Copic Pens, added a background done with Gelatos and then added some die cuts.   I cut a fun cloud shape twice in one size using white paper to stamp my sentiment on, and then a background layer of blue glitter paper.   I then added another smaller cloud in just the glitter paper.   At the bottom I cut two water waves out of the same glitter paper.  I added some Wink Of Stella to the inner tube for some sparkle and some Stickles to the flowers on her shoes, and Glossy Accents on her eyes.  I, also, added some polka dot ribbon to the front.

Inside I just cut a fancy SB die for an insert, and added some blue flowers with a bit  more glitter paper, to bring that color to the inside.
