Time For Me

Bright Sunny day here, but we do need some rain for our gardens, it is hard to dig to put in some new plants.  Glad I have so many flowering plants that come up every year.

Thought this would suit a granddaughter for her birthday she does like to have her fingernails and toes polished.  Had nice visit with her last week, they live a distance away so don't see them as often as I would like to.

The image is from Mo Manning and I have coloured her with Copics and added a butterfly, a flower some gold ribbon and a sentiment sticker from my stash.

Shine On

This card is for my Nephews daughter who is turning 6  she has a brother a couple of years older and would very much like to keep up with him and do everything he can do.  She can also be a very girly girl!  She does have gorgeous long blond hair.

This image is from Polkadoodles and I coloured her with Copics and cut her out and glued her to the red dp.  To go with the sentiment on the front on the inside left side it says "Shine On".
With the Birthday sentiment on the inside right.
  I kept it flat because i was mailing it right away which I did this afternoon after I got some stamps.

Presents for your Birthday

Really quite cool here again, but it is suppose to warm up for the weekend.  I can see the sunset through the trees at the back of the house, it is very pretty with orange and yellow colours  against the blue sky.

This is the strangest cardstock, the white that you see in reality has a gold sheen to it, but it does not show in the photo at all.  It's called Recollections Shimmer. I used my chalk pads to colour the raised background in yellow and green.

The cute little girl is from Cheryls Digital Images and the sentiment from Netty's Cards which I did not colour because of the gold sheen that is there but not showing up.  The background I embossed with a Cuttlebug - Anna Griffin folder which covers a 5 x 7 card. I added the gold ribbon and pearls from my stash.

I dropped the card off at my friends house this afternoon, so I can't take any more photos.  I had taken quite a few, but the light was not as good as some days.

Skateboard Girl

So many teens seem to have a skate board these days, to go along with their wireless devices. My granddaughter is no exception!

The image is from Sassy Studio Designs and I coloured her with Copics and then cut her out because I liked this piece of designer paper that I found in my stash. I then added the sentiment and glued it to a white card.

Have Your Cake & Eat it Too

Hope everyone have a wonderful Mothers Day, I certainly did with the grandkids and their parents!  It was just the younger grandchildren as the older boys were all at the cottage on such a nice weekend.

This image is from Saturated Canary and I have used the name for my title. I have coloured the image with copics, did a little bit of paper piecing on the cake.  Used a couple of my Spellbinders dies, Glitter Glue on the fireworks on the cake, flowers at bottom from Doodlebug Designs.  Butterflies, stamp and DP from my stash.
