 The image is from Milk n Coffee. I have to tell you I really love the images I got from this sponsor. I have never heard of them before and I love them.This image is Tiffany and Birthday Cake. I colored her with Copics and added Stickles to her dress.

The inside sentiment and front sentiment are from Stampendous. The paper is DCWV and gorgeous! It has glitter through out that is hard to see in the picture.

Teal Birthday Card

I am happy to say that I will be guest designing with Card Mania for the entire summer. This week's challenge is flowers. How simple is that!? I used flower paper, embellishments and a stamp. Over achiever I know :)

This is actually two stamps. The background stamp and then a birthday sentiment. I was unsure how they would look together but liked the result. The sentiment is Fiskar and the background I believe is too but I am not sure.

The inside is a Stampendous birthday set sentiment.

TSB Doily

This week on The Stamping Boutique the challenge is doily. I don't use them often but they do make a nice background piece.

This is one purple birthday card. It came out good. I used a Stampendous sentiment and some button brads.

Birthday Turtle is so cute. I love the hearts on the shell. I am a fan of turtles so I have a lot of turtle stamps. I colored this one with Copics and added stickles to the bow.

I love how this card came out. I used some DCWV paper for my background DP.

This sentiment is Butterfly Kisses Sentiment. I added some color to the butterflies with a Copic marker and Stickles on top.

I used a Stampendous birthday sentiment inside the card.

Mojo Monday 275 Sketch Card

I made a few male birthday cards the other day. This one I am debating if it is a male card. The colors make it male my hubby says.

The paper is DCWV. The stamp is from Stampendous. 

I followed Mojo Monday 275 sketch.

Miki Eating Cake Pink Bday Card

Miki Eating Cake is a cute Sew Many image. I love all Sew Many stamps sooo much. I colored him with Copics and added stickles to the cake. I happy birthday is a clear stamp from Stampendous.

School has started for me so my time is limited for posting projects. I am excited to be back at work with the most fantastic third grade class I have ever seen. Hopefully I will adjust to work soon and not be so exhausted so I can be more active in the crafty world again. Thanks for stopping by and looking.

Miki Pink Bday Card

So if you follow my blog this card might look familiar. I made one just like it with a different image and a customer saw it and wanted the same layout with a monkey instead of the elephant card

The happy birthday 2 U is stampendous and the monkey is Miki from Sew Many. I colored him with Copics and and Stickles to the cake.

Scraps Blog Hop Day 2

Scroll down for Day 1 of this wonderful hop.

 This dragonfly was cut from Gypsy Wanderings and gems added with Irock.

I just love this digi right now. I get stuck on using the same stamps over and over for a short time until my next obsession. This Sassy Cheryl digi is my current favorite. I colored it with Copics and added stickles to the cupcake. A little twine bow, some faux pearls and lots of scraps. I used a few sheets of 12x12 paper from My Minds Eye to a card the other day and of course had lots of left overs. So I made these cards from the left overs.

These two cards I used a stamp from Stampendous (Two You I think) and used my Copics and Prism Colored Pencils to color them.

Stampendous Monkey Birthday Card

Bothe cards were colored with Copics and gems were added with my Irock. The top card is pretty self explanatory. The bottom card the background paper was made using shaving cream and Ranger Rick's Alcohol Inks. I explained it poorly here. I added brads to the ribbon on the bottom.

Stampendous Bee Birthday Card

I cut the scallop with my Nestibilites and stamped around it with the small stamp in this bee set and added metal accents with my Irock. I stamped the cute bee and colored with Copics. I added glossy accents to the balloon. Thanks for looking.
