You Make Me So Happy

We've got a new sketch for you to try out at Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2. I know I say this every week, but this one sure is a winner!!!  

And our wonderful sponsor is the lovely Heather at Fresh Brewed Designs. She is a dearand very generous friend. Take a moment to browse through her store, I'm sure you'll find a must have...or two or three!!!  

I used the lovely Mermaid in Love image, coloring her up with my copics and adding shimmer with my wink of stella pen. Aqua and coral is my latest favorite color combination, perfect for under the sea images. Now I sure hope you can join us this week at Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 for your chance at some Fresh Brewed Designs goodness. 

Winter Wonderland

We have a new challenge for you over at Holly Jolly Christmas, Winter Wonderland. I am all in when it comes to keeping it quick and easy...and that's exactly what this card was!! The background is from Eureka, one of our sponsors, and is called Snow Background. I simply changed it up to blue before printing it off. Then I die cut it out and added a few more die cuts and a sentiment. Quick, easy and fun!! I sure hope you can join us for some Winter Wonderland fun at Holly Jolly Christmas.

Challenges I'm submitting my card to include:
Christmas Stampin' All Year Long - Snow or glitter 
 

Happy Day

Doodle Pantry is sponsoring the Anything Goes challenge going on over at Craft Your Passion. When I started thinking about what image I would use for this challenge, I was a bit overwhelmed. The possibilities were endless!!! Then it hit me, make a birthday card for Mom...so here it is!! She loves pink and flowers. Okay, I used coral instead of pink but the flowers, from the Doodle Pantry set Jargon Mixes, were perfect. I sparkled up the water with my clear Wink of Stella pen and kept the rest very clean and simple. Sure hope you can join them at Craft Your Passion for their anything goes challenge. And if you use a digital image, be sure and submit it to our Ants in my Pantry challenge over at the Doodle Pantry Blog.
   

Life's a Beach

Two weeks from today we'll be leaving for our beach vacation!!! I love the sound of the waves crashing, it puts me in my happy place!! This week for our CAS challenge over at The Outlawz, the beach is our theme. I used a sponsor image from Deedee's Digis called Life's a Beach. I chuckle every time I read this sentiment!!! The yellow paper behind the main image is of sun rays...too bad it doesn't show up better in this picture. Anyway, sure hope you can join us for our CAS beach challenge over at The Outlawz.

Sweet Birthday

What a sweetie of a mouse!!! This is one of the newly released sets over at Imagine That! You really need to check 'em all out...they are all so fabulous and fun!!!!! This one is Chloe's Mixer. I couldn't wait to print this one up 'cause I love, love, love the sweet cherry paper that comes with it!!! Her mixer reminds me of the pretty one The Pioneer Woman has on Food Network!! I used the sketch from Sunday Stamps...love the ability to show off that wonderful cherry paper!!

Play Ball

It's the first day of the month so that means a new Ants in my Pantry Digital Challenge over at the Doodle Pantry Blog. The theme is anything goes so lots of fun is to be had, and best of all, some Doodle Pantry goodness is up for grabs!! I've been in the patriotic mood so I used the Stars & Stripes Paper Pack along with Baseball Birdie. Picking the paper actually came first, and, for some reason, this paper made me think baseball. A quick card, thanks to the color version of so many of Doodle Pantry's images. Hope you can join us for our Ants in my Pantry Digital Challenge.
