Enjoy Your Day!

Totally made this card with these challenges in mind....and it's late and past my bedtime..so i will be brief...

Here is my card using Bud from Mo's Digital Pencil:  (and oh it' so hard to add the link for this image because it's like opening Pandora's Box every time i visit Mo's shop...and i get sooo tempted) I've tried to get the newsletter to come to my email...but it doesn't come :(  It might be a good thing though. :)

of course i used one of my "go to" places for my sketch...The Sweet Stop:

So my challenges are:
Mo's Challenge Blog- Hugs and Kisses #144
The Sweet Stop- Sketch and a spin w/numbers (i added the corner w/numbers)

Just sitting here thinking of you!

I've used this fun image from Doodle Pantry..with a twist..it was 3 birds sitting on a branch and i chose just one of the birds..and it happened to be the bird hanging upside down..and i've made him so the is right side up.. I loved the expression on this bird and thought it went well with this week's sketch at Tuesday Morning Sketches!

Here is my card:

Now a word from our Sponsor this week.... Doodle Pantry

Princess-ness

Trying a new technique today.  I saw this card that was painted and then then the top body half was attached on top...and i liked the card and have saved it to try...but for some reason...tissue paper came to mind and i wanted to use it instead of paint...soooo...i printed the image off 3 times, glued white tissue paper on top of one image and orange on top of the second one and then colored the top half of the 3 image.  Cut out the last one and then layer pieces of the white for the dress and orange for the dress.  I added some embellishments...and came up with this:

I made this card for {Pin}spirational challenge blog where i am on their DT.  This week our sponsor is...ta da....

This card was a mixture of several challenges.  The first challenge was Elegance at Midweek Magnolias and it set the tone for the rest of the card.

Here is my card...i added the embellishments based on other challenges...which made this card turn out pretty i think...

The sketch it a new challenge blog for me at Graphicat Sketches Challenges...their sketches are awesome...but my Magnolia might not fit in with their theme?

It's SO HOT!

When i scheduled this post it was reading 104 degrees in Indianapolis..whew...i think we all need to sit in a kiddie pool to cool off...but wait..i remember that if it's that hot outside the water is like a hot tub instead of feeling refreshing..i guess i will just sit inside and enjoy the air conditioning for now. :)

I am combining a few challenges and whenever i do..i come up with a card i like.  I should say when i make a card i have the challenges in mind first..i only go looking for a challenge when i only have one challenge or a dt challenge. 

So because of the challenges listed below i created this card:

**Note i have used two sentiments..one is computer generated and the other is a Magnolia stamp.

 Copics used:
skin- YR000, 00, R14, 20
hair- Y11, 21, YR23
panties & slippers- R0000, 20, 22

Oh, it feels good to be back in a bit of routine.  I've missed not making some cards for Mo's challenge blog...i am finally getting organized again..and it's a good thing because i have some really awesome Mo's images in my collection...and i need to be using them.  This image that i am using on this card is one that i fell in love with instantly, but hadn't used yet.  The theme for Mo's challenge blog is "Singing and Dancing" and even though i have several Mo images, i didn't have actual singing and dancing, but this one "could" be learning to sing and dance?  Or it could make you want to sing and dance?

Here is my card:
