{FTHS} SOTM - May

Hi it's me again, I'm here for the FTHS - SOTM May and here is my card based on this week's sketch (see below). I do apologise in advance I missed the scallops on the sketch. I was in a hurry since I have a cold. Yes, in this sunny warm weather!

Mom, Thank You for being You

Hello and happy Saturday! Hope yours started with a smile. Mine did, I can't complain. Sunny weather, tryouts to my daughter's dance, quick check to the shopping mall and finally, eating out for dinner later. What can be more perfect than this?

I'm here today for the progressive challenge by Imagine This...imagine that by Kris. We received this image to play


and here is what I came up with:



She has been colored with prismacolors and gamsol, popped up with foam dots and fussy cut. The mat was cut with my spellbinders ovals and scallops.

Hope you like it!

{HBDT} Hello Princess

Good morning and Happy Wednesday! We're in the middle of the week already! Where did the time go? Today brings out a new challenge over at Hobbybook where the theme is Use at least 3 flowers. Easy peasy right?

Here is my card

I colored Lyndseypop with my prisma colors and gamsol, popped her up onto some foam dots and stamped a sentiment from one of my unknown stamp sets. I cut the mat with my Cricut and embossed the background papers with my cuttlebug. Flowers are from Prisma, the center of the flower was done with a thread to make it look like it has a pistil and I also used my Martha Stewart punch for some vines. 

Here is a close up

Hope you like it and visit my fellow teamies for more inspiration here

{DGDT} Up, up & Away


Happy Friday everyone! It's my weekly post for the Doodle Garden. How is it going on  your side? Ours is certainly off to a great start! We are doing some renos of our backyard finally, been a long, long time. We are sure looking forward to a new patio so we can chill during summer.

 

 
 
My little cutie is Aviator Boy that you can find in the store here. I love every single image of Jennifer's, they're SO SO cute!!!
 
I went with a masculine card, something I rarely create. I colored Aviator with prismacolor pencils and gamsol, fussy cut and popped him up with some foam dots. Papers are from October Afternoon Travel Girl and sentiment is from Up, UP & Away (The clouds too!)
 
Hope  you like it and remember we have our monthly challenge going on. Check it out!

Girls just wanna have fun

Hi everyone and Happy Thursday! Today the weather is so mucky that I don't want to go out but I really should since I have to do some shopping... I wanted to play with Stampin Bella Uptown Girls Victoria and Juliette's Night out today. Sorry for the dark pic but I just couldn't make it brighter :-( I will upload a new one tomorrow.



They were colored with prismacolor pencils and gamsol and a sky background was stamped in the back. I took the MFT Instaframe die and cut a frame for these girls. I rolled the frame in my dotted embossing floder first before hand swishing some red ink pad onto the dots. For the sentiment, I cut it with the MFT dimensional banner but cut off the pointy ends. 

My sketch comes from The House that built

You're my Super Dad


Happy Sunday! Happy Mother's Day to all the moms celebrating today! I know, I know, my card is not a Mother's Day card but we also have to thank these dads that take both roles.

I colored this awesome My Hero stamp with prismacolor pencils and gamsol. I think I went a bit overboard with the color of the skin so pardon me, I'm still playing with my new gamsol here.

{DGDT} Thinking of You


It's Saturday and tomorrow will be a special day since it will be Mother's day in Canada. I would like to wish a very Happy Mother's Day to every mom who is a mom, be it your mum, mom-in-law, aunt, sister etc... Without them, our world would not be the same...

This is my weekly post for the Doodle Garden blog. I was supposed to do it yesterday but my daughter had a school performance. So here is Muffin Mouse, which you can find here in the shop.


It was colored with prismacolor pencils and I followed the sketch from Sugar Pea Designs and column #1 for the twist at 613 Create Avenue.




Hope you like it and have a fabulous mother's day tomorrow!!!
