Squigglefly Bookmark!

Good afternoon, hope all is well with you. Today I have another Squigglefly creation for you. I decided to make a bookmark with this adorable image. The image is called "Tiny Tina Goes To School". I just love this little girl, she has quite a few images to go with her. The dp is DCWV, and I just added some stickles to her headband, shoes, belt and the hearts on her dress. I cut the top is CS and DP with decorative scissors. I added an eyelet and some fibers, voila', it's finished. The challenge for today is to use fall colors, so I thought a back to school thing was perfect. Don't forget to check out the SquiggleflyBlog for the challenge, and make sure you play along to win some free images.

It's Squigglefly Day!

Good morning, hope all is well with you. Today is Squigglefly challenge day, and Rhonda has given us a sketch to play with. I have to say that sketches are my favorite. I used the image called "Beach Baby", and it can be found here. I absolutely love this image, it's one of my all time favorites. I finally tried coloring with my prisma pencils and baby oil. I have to tell you that I LOVE this coloring technique. I did try it once before but got frustrated and haven't tried it since. So now back to the card! All CS is bazzill, and dp is DCWV. I used the square scallop nestie to cut out the top squares. I'm not sure where the clear buttons are from, I got them in a secret sister thing. And it's finished off with blue fibers. So thanks for looking, have a great day, and don't forget to go to the Squigglefly blog to play along for a chance to win a prize!!

Squigglefly Challenge #10

Good morning, hope all is well with you. Today is the 10th challenge over on the squigglefly blog!!! Rhonda was the hostess with the mostess this week and gave us the challenge of using 1oval, 1square, ribbon, and glitter. So much better!!!! For this weeks' challenge I used the image called "flowermice". Isn't it the sweetest! I colored with my copics, and cut around the image-there was too much white space for me. I used my nestabilites to cut the rectangle, and the ovals. CS is bazzill bling, and the green dp is DCWV, and the polka dot is MM. I cut the corners with my circle punch, and the ribbon is from Michael's. I added some stickles and voila' it's done! If you haven't been over to squigglefly lately, run, don't walk! They've added a ton of new images-all adorable! Have a wonderful day, and don't forget to go to the squigglefly blog to play along, their are prizes to be won!

Squigglefly Challenge #9

Good evening, hope all is well with you. This post is for the Squigglefly Challenge #9. Kim was in charge of the challenge this week, and let me tell you it is a doozy!!! She gave us the challenge of making a one layer card with only one embellishment(holy cow)! I don't know if I've ever made a one layer card, so this was definitely a challenge for me. I decided to use a sentiment which did make it a little bit easier. The sentiment is of course from Squigglefly, and called "bee happy". I just inserted it into microsoft office and from there could re size it. I colored with my copics and added some polka dots to the word "happy" with my gel pen. I added stickles to the wings and along the trail of the bee. I finished it off with some polka dot ribbon with knots on each end. The ribbon is from Michael's. So if you really like challenges I suggest you try this one. Thanks for looking, and have a wonderful evening!

Squigglefly Blog Hop Day 2

Good morning, and welcome to the Squigglefly Blog Hop Day 2. If you've arrived her from Holly's blog then your on the right track. If you didn't then you need to go to Amanda's blog to start the hop. So, business first! If you haven't checked out Squigglefly lately, you need to get over there. They've released lots of new images. And they've started two new things. First, for the month of July they will donate 50% of sales out of the "animals" category to the ASPCA. Second, starting very soon they will be doing a rewards program. For every 15 dollars that you spend, you get to choose a free image. It can be any image you want, no restrictions! How cool is that? And of course since this is a blog hop, their are prizes. Squigglefly will give 3 images to one person that leaves a comment on all of the blogs today. (they did the same thing yesterday).

Ok, now that all of that is said, onto the card! Today's card uses the image "A surprise from Sara". I immediately fell in love with this image for 3 reasons. First she has my name, even spelled the same way. Second, she looks just like strawberry shortcake-to me. Third, she reminds me of my youngest daughter, Sabrina. I colored her with prisma pencils and blended with the prisma blender. I added some diamond glaze to the sun and clouds. The CS is Bazzill, and all dp is DCWV stack 5. The ribbon and bling is from Michael's. I did add a little bit of stickles here and there. I used the sketch from card patterns. So, hope you like it and thanks for hopping along with us. Now, you need to go to Shelly's blog for more fun!!!

Sassy Studio Designs Card

Good evening, hope all is well with you. Tonight I have a card that I made using a digi image from Sassy Studio Designs. The image is called "Cell Phone Cindy". Isn't she cute? It so reminds me of my girls, although they are mostly texting, but you get the idea. I colored her with prisma pencils, and add some stickles here and there. I used a sketch from Our Creative Corner. The CS is Bazill bling line, and the dp is unknown. It was already cut up and the name gone. On the pink panel I used a Studio G stamp and stamped it in CTMH denim blue and in versamark. The "Call Me" sentiment is from Studio G as well. The ribbon is from the Dollar Tree. I added a few buttons, and voila' it's done. Thanks for looking, hope you like it. Please don't forget that tomorrow is the first ever Work It Wednesday on TCC's blog. This will be a weekly challenge with a prize given away. Also tomorrow they are offering a "freebie" for you to play with, so have fun, and create fun. Oh, one more thing! Squigglefly is having their blog hop starting tomorrow with 1/2 of the DT, and the other 1/2 on Thursday. They also will be giving prizes. They've started something new too. For the month of July they will be donating 50% of sales to the ASPCA. This applies to images found in the animals category. Also they are starting a rewards program, for every 15 dollars that you spend, you get 1 free image! How cool is that! So make sure you visit both of these blogs and have fun.

Squigglefly Challenge #8-An ATC

Good morning, hope all is well with you. Today is challenge #8 over on the Squigglefly Blog. Rhonda's challenge for us today is to make an ATC. I just started making these little things, and I have to tell you-I'm hooked. They are so much fun. They're a little harder for me, because you have such a small space to work with. But, lots of fun. And they are perfect for digi images, because you can re size the images to anything you want. I used the "Pixie" image for this one, isn't she adorable! I cut my CS down to the 3 1/2 x 2 1/2 size and went from there. I can't tell you where the CS is from because it got sent to me from a secret sister. The burgandy and pink are bazill, and the white is GP. I used my only corner punch(really need more of those) for the corners, and then wrapped wire with a few beads on it around the whole thing. So, make sure you check out squigglefly for adorable images. They've just added a whole bunch of new one's too. Also don't forget about the squigglefly blog hop on July 1st and 2nd.

Cupcake Craft Challenge #45

Good morning, hope all is well with you. Today I have a card that I made for the Cupcake Craft Challenge. I also have been able to participate in these challenges in awhile. For this card I used a stamp set that my mom sent to me for my birthday. It's from Our Craft Lounge and it's called "Bubbles". I LOVE turtles, which I'm sure most of you know by now, so this set was perfect for me. I LOVE it! I finally got to use it, and this is what I came up with. I colored everything with my Koh-I-Noor pencils and blended it with the prisma blender pencil. The CS is Bazill, and the DP is from Miss Elizabeth, which you get at the dollar tree. I added some Diamond Glaze to look like bubbles(i think) with a glitter gel pen around them. The ribbon is from my stash, and i added the dew drops to the side. I also added a piece of the DP inside and stamped the saying"you're a star" on a star I cut out with my nesties. Hope you like it, thanks for looking. Don't forget about the Squigglefly blog hop on July 1st, and 2nd. Also, don't forget about the first "Work it Wednesday" from The Character Cafe, which is also on the 1st. They will be having a "freebie" for you also. Have a wonderful day!

House Mouse Challenge #43

Good morning, hope all is well with you. I've finally done another House Mouse Challenge. It seems like forever since I've done one. This week they had a sketch, and I love to do sketch challenges. And since I actually got to do this one, I went all out and made a card and a note book. WOO HOO!!! The card is made using the "Pop-ular Fun" stamp. I colored it with my prisma pencils and blender pencil. I cut the image out with my nesties, matted on green Bazill paper that I ran through the cuttlebug with an embossing folder. I sanded it a little bit to make it look distressed. The CS is Bazill, and the DP is DCWV. Both circles were cut out with my nesties and ran through the cuttlebug with the swiss dots embossing folder. The ribbon is from my stash, and I added some dew drops on the top and bottom of the circles. The note book uses the same DP, but the CS is from Michael's. The stamp for this one is "Balloon Journey". I also used my nesties to cut these out. I added my own polka dots to the circle and then went over them with stickles. I went around the green part with my glitter gel pen. The ribbon is again from my stash, and I also added dew drops to this one. Thanks for looking and don't forget about The Squigglefly blog hop starting July 1st, and then also the 2nd. And, don't forget about The Character Cafe's Work it Wednesday starting July 1st. Have a wonderful day!

Squigglefly Challenge #7

Good morning, hope all is well with you. This week on the squigglefly challenge blog, Kim has given us the challenge of doing the "out of the box" technique. If your saying "what the heck is that" as I was Here is the tutorial. I thought this was going to be so hard, but it was very easy. So for this card I used Squigglefly image: Brokenteddy. I used a sketch from the Sketch Saturday Blog. The blue CS is Bazill Bling, and the gingham dp is making memories, the stripe is DCWV. I cut the bear out with my nesties. I added button to the corners, and class a peel stickers to the top. I colored the image with my prisma color pencils. The sentiment is hand written and says "Get Well Soon". Hope you like it and thanks for looking. I'll be back tomorrow with The Character Cafe Feature Friday entry.

A Squigglefly Wedding Set

Good morning, hope all is well with you. I can't believe I haven't posted anything since Thursday. The Character Cafe' had their blog hop going until yesterday, so I wanted to leave that post until then. And, I'm not the smartest in figuring out things, I know that their is a way to leave a post at the top, but I don't know how to do it. So I thought this would just be easier. So, on to today's post. I made both of these for a contest at Squigglefly, so I didn't want to post them until it was over. But here they are. I kinda went with a wedding theme, and of course I was stuck on the whole black, pink, silver thing. The card is made with the "Beautiful Wedding: Sweet Dress" image. And the journal is made with the "Wedding Bliss: Beautiful Cake" image. They are both so much fun to color. And can be very versatile. They don't have to be used for a wedding theme, you could use them for lots of things. Prom, baby shower, bridal shower, the possibilities are endless. If you haven't checked out Squigglefly recently, go over right now. They've been adding new image all the time. Thanks for looking, and have a great day.

Squigglefly Challenge 6

Good morning, hope all is well with you. I've been having a heck of a time getting this to post! I'm ready to scream! Ok, enough of that. This week on the Squigglefly Challenge Blog we were asked to use Black, Pink, one color of our choice, 2 flowers, and 2 brads. Now for me this was the easiest challenge ever. This is my absolute favorite color combo, and these were the colors of my wedding. Including the Silver that I picked as my other color. The name of the image I used is: Madison and Popples. Isn't it too cute? I colored her with my Bic Mark It's and Copics. I used a glitter gel pen for the silver. I cut her out and matted her with nesties. All CS is DCWV, the dp is making memories, and the silver vellum-well, I have no idea. I used a corner punch to my dp into. The flowers are prima, and the glitter brads are bo bunny. The ribbon is from Joann's, and the bling is Kaiser Scrapbok. If you haven't visited Squigglefly, you really should. They just released a bunch of new images, besides all the other ones. They are a digital company, with great prices. Thanks for looking, and hope you like it.
