WHAT TIME IS IT?

 Hey Everyone! It is SATURDAY and time for the Sweet Stop Sketch!  I took the sketch  and flipped it to the side and then added this Sweet Umbrella Peeker Girl . I kept the colors in a monochromatic tones.

Have you checked out Susana's Mixed Media Line? She has SOOO MANY COOL ELEMENT Stamps  AND DIES! On this card, I used the Rays and Steampunk Clock Set and added the Vintaj Clockwork Elements to further embellish the project. I used the Rays and Steampunk Clock Set and embossed the hands of the clock with Gold Embossing Powder and cut them out using my craft scissors.

 On this Sweet Umbrella Peeker Girl , I colored her in with EARTH colored Copic Markers and cut out the image and popped up using Dimensionals. Of course, I had to clean my stamps and these beauties deserve NOTHING but the best!!!  So I used the ScraPerfect Best Cleaner Ever! (It REALLY IS!)

I hope you enjoyed my project today! When you are done looking here, please take some time to be inspired by the Sugar Babies creations: Cathy McCauley, Shannon White, Korin Sutherland, Monika Davis, Janice Melton and Shelby Goolsby

Thank you for stopping by today! Have a WONDERFUL weekend!!!

STRIKE A POSE!

Hello Everyone - The past 2 months has been a whirlwind of activity in our home. I started as a Norwex Demonstrator in June and that took off like wild fire. I am SO blessed!! I will be adding some Norwex things to my blog as well as I go along and find some time too! 

Isn't this sweetie, precious? This image is from the Story Book Collection 

and she is called the Big Hat Peeker.  To color her in, I used the

Creative Inspiration Paints  - Rose Quartz, Sky Blue, Beige, Blue Ice and Antique Copper

Ink: Blushing Bride for skin tone. 

Susana has all kinds of NEW fabulous papers in her store! On todays card, I used the cheerful  So Happy Together by Echo Park Paper. You can see all the beautiful patterned paper that Susana carries HERE.  I also used the totally COOL new Petaloo Premier Cruelty Free Feathers  (just scroll down)! You can choose from a wonderful variety of colors. There is a WIDE variety of Mixed Media things in Susana's store! Sure to fit every artists needs! To add a bit of flair to my project, I added the Jasmine Frame memory Box Die . 

I used the Sakura Quickie Glue Pen to adhere it to my project. To finish off this cutie pie card, I used the Ice White Viva Pearl Pen on the flowers and the corners.

BEAT THE BAND

Hi Everyone - Have you joined in on the FUN this week for DRS DESIGNS Challenge? Yes... it is WHEELS but come on and join us! It isn't too late! If you do not have a "WHEEL" make your own! On my "float" I used a Soccer ball stamp  to create my wheel. :) You can see the challenge HERE.

On my card today, I used the FOUR CORNER SPORTS image to create the wheel on my parade float. The Band Member image is called MARCHING BAND TRUMPET and the sentiment that goes PERFECTLY with these fun images is the BEAT THE BAND GREETING. The foliage on the float is the FOUR CORNER BUTTERFLY BACKGROUND.  I sponged the background with Bashful Blue Ink and used Silver Chrome Viva Pearl Pen.

Thank you for stopping by! I hope you have a great day!

TREASURE EACH DAY

Hello Everyone! Welcome to my blog today for SWEET STOP SKETCH SATURDAY! Are you ready for a NEW sketch this week? It is Sweet Stop Sketch Saturday!!! 

I had a blast paper piecing and coloring this sweet image from Susana's Custom Art and Card Design  and the Story book Collection! Such ADORABLE images, that make it fun to reminisce those special moments with your own children! Those moments FLY by, so I thought the Idea-Ology Chit Chat Stickers was the perfect way to "Treasure the Moment."

I stamped the "Motherly" image in the back using the Blank Canvas Collection . 

I used Technique Junkies Newsletter and the Out of the Box technique with the Circle Spellbinders, along with the Banner Dies. I used the Viva Pearl Pen in Lilac 

to finish off the card.

There is a line up of fabulous new product over at Susana's Custom Art and Card Design
