Pirates Life

 Hello Everyone,

Hope your weather is better than mine. It has been a wet, cloudy, cold month here and I am dreaming of summer! 

Today's card features this adorable stamp from Polkadoodles which I colored myself. This is  perfect for a birthday or just a thinking of you moment. The clouds are a die from La La Land Crafts as is the treasure chest on the inside. 

Do you like to put stuff on the inside of your cards? I tend to leave mine blank but will add an occasional little embellishment.

Guest Designer

 Good Afternoon Friends,

Wanted to share with you that I am the guest designer over at Penny's Paper Crafty Challenge this week. I made this card using the image they gave me from their sponsor Dr. Digis House of Stamps it is called Bertie and Belindas Boating Birthday. I thought it was hilarious. 

I colored this using copic markers. I added my own sentiment which I also thought was hilarious haha. Nothing like laughing at your own jokes. I also added some glossy accents to make the water appear wet. 

I hope you found some humor in this lol, I am entering this in the following challenges:

Because you care

 Hello everyone,

So I have been making cards for a while now and one of my favorite cards to make is one that just lets someone in your life know how special they are to you. We send cards for all occasions but isn't it the best to receive a card for no reason other than you are loved or thought of! Nothing like fun mail!

On that note I created this card using stamps and dies from La La Land Crafts Kit of the month. The sentiment is my own. No need to wait for a birthday to send this one! 

I colored it using copics and the papers are also from La La land travel.

Dad duty

 Hello everyone, 

Can't believe we are into June already! Which means Father's Day is coming up. I created this cutie for the dads out there who come home from work and jump right into their dad role, playing with the kids and pets! I know my husband always did this, he knew his time to rest was when they all went to bed haha!

This scene was created using digital stamps from a new release over at Polkadoodles which you can see here.  I just sized them to fit, printed them and colored them up using copics.  A nice clean and simple card that gets the message across.

  

I am entering this card in the following challenges:

The Paper Shelter:  For that special man

C.R.A.F.T. Challenge:  Masculine

Fab n Funky Challenge: One layer CAS

Preschool thanks

 Hello everyone,

Today I am sharing a card I made for my granddaughter to give to her preschool teacher on the last day. I picked unicorns because that is what my granddaughter loves. Her teacher and most preschool teachers are absolutely amazing with the amount of patience and kindness they display every day. 

The image I used is from Polkadoodles and I colored it using my copics.  The background paper is also from Polkadoodles. I added some glitter because what good is a unicorn without glitter lol.
