The Happy Cow


This digi image is from Marg Kieser, I think it is a happy fun image.  I am entering this card in the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge MMSC112.   I have colored it with copics, and added 3 different colors of denim dp as the background.  I have the chosen the Keep it simple version of the sketch.
I have not been very active on the CDAC site this week, I have just popped in several times to see what is going on. 

I have had company all week.  My daughter and her three children have all been here for the week.  My daughter has been working all week from my house, sending her work to the office via her computer.  Her eldest was going to computer camp every morning, and I got to drive him.  Her daughter was going to gymnastics and they went on their bikes, as it was very close to where we live.  Baby got to stay at home with whoever was still there.  It was a very busy week, but it was so nice to have them here and keep in touch with events in their lives.  I must add some pictures of  Colton to my blog, he is now 10 weeks old. 
They both enjoyed their camps, and may return again over the summer for another session.  ( I hope so!)

Butterflies and Flowers


Time for another Midnight Madness Challenge CDAC MMSC110.   I chose the fancy version this time, a very busy card.  The background is a cuttle bug folder which I applied Ranger Mustard Seed Distress Ink to, then ran it through my Wizard.  The leaves are a die cut from Marianne Design.  The butterflies were a stamp colored with markers onto glossy card stock, and then cut out.  The background papers and ribbon are from my stash.  The border punch is from Ek Success.  Small blue geo shape sparklers applied to the ends of the ribbon.  My purple ribbon might be a little too dark, but I like it.

Golfed this morning, great day, just enough breeze so that it was not too hot.  Sure could use some rain,  we seem to get too much rain all at once, or none at all.  Had a nice visit with my nephew, his wife and two little ones ages two and four over the weekend,  They are staying at his parents for 12 days, they are from BC so they were glad to see our sunny weather as they have had nothing but rain for quite some time.  They keep lots of umberellas & rain coats near the front door.  Seemed that last week was very busy, did not get too much done in the way of cardmaking - will have to see what this week brings.

Fair Fairy


This pretty digi is from A Day for Daisies.  I have paper pieced her with DP from Paper Boutique and colored her with copics.  The flowers are from Petaloo, Color Me Crazy and the leaves are a die cut from Marianne.  The stripes and flowers are colored with Memories Mists, Mango Lemonade.  The eyelets are from e-z set.  I am entering this in the CDAC Midnight Madness Challenge MMSC109.
