Rainy Days

Ever since I got this image from Nana Vic I wanted to use it with this designer paper, but didn't quite know how.  This weeks Midnight Madness sketch challenge is for the front of the card to be divided into two parts.
I chose to do the simple design as there wasn't room for too many embellishments on my card.  The top of the card is DP from Jillibean - Egg Drop Soup.  The large green umberella is in two layers and I have popped up the second one and also an additional pop up in the centre. These don't show in this picture it still looks like one layer.   The lower portion of the card is this sweet digital image from Nana Vic.  I have colored it with copics.

Was going to post this card this morning before we went out for the day, but wouldn't you know it my camera's batteries gave out after I had taken the photo, but before I had uploaded it to my computer.

I thought that we were to have some warmer weather, but did see lots of snowflakes on our drive home from Niagara Falls tonight.  Don't think it should amount to too much though.

Butterflies are always Beautiful

This card is for the Sketch Challenge at CDAC.  The beautiful butterfly image is from Sue, McMahon Five Designs.  The digi is colored with copics and Gelly Roll Pen.  Glitter, Sky Blue & Gun Metal.  DP for the background is from Stamping Up and the Swirls are from a Paper Passport pad by Provo Craft.  Pearls from Dollarama colored with copic marker.

Tonight we start daylight saving time so our clocks are set an hour ahead to-night so hopefully we can sleep in for an extra hour tomorrow morning. 

Purple Lanterns

This card is for the CDAC Color Challenge.  The wonderful purple lantern digi is from Crafty Ann's. The colors we were to use were pink, purple and lilac.   I used Purple Glitter Glue from Gary M. Burlin to decorate the lanterns.  The oriental lady stamp is from Sparkle & Sprinkle.  I think she is very pretty, I like the flowers and other decorations in her hair. Used copics to color her.   Gems and DP are from my stash.

Having a very quiet day to-day.  The rain has stopped a few days of it was enough. The creek that runs behind our townhouse is running very fast, I am glad that there are high walls to keep it enclosed.   Curled on Friday and we won - Yea!
