Looking Out

Another fun digi from Whoopsidaisy.  The girl is a freebie image for the Freebie Challenge CDACFDC29,
which is going on now.  I have colored her with copics and have added some glitter glue to the flowers in her hair and on the ground.  The fence is also an image from Whoopsidaisy and has been colored with Ranger Distress inks.  The flowers on the top of the fence are chipboard and are from a scrapbook kit.  The background was done with a cuttlebug folder.

We were hurrying out of the house this morning, so I added this image very hastily to My Page for the gallery, and I left the challenge tag off.  Hope I can rectify that little detail (haste makes waste.)  Spent the day in Niagara Falls stateside to-day.  ( Don't know why when we are crossing the border, I always get behind the car that gets held up for some reason or another.)  To-day it happened both coming and going.  But we had a fun day anyway.

Girl with Watering Can

I like making cards with little girls or boys on them.  This card is for the CDAC Midnight Madness sketch challenge #114.  The images are from Whoopsiedaisy ( the girl and the arbor).  I colored the image with copics.  The scalloped circle is a card front from I-craft.  The flowers are from Walmart, and come with a tiny pearl in the center.I cut the little girl out and popped her up with pop dots in front of the arbor.

Went golfing with my husband this morning, but the heat was a little too much for him to-day.  Next time we go together he will have to take a cart if it is at all warm.  Otherwise we had a good day, went to Dairy Queen for a treat after dinner.

Dance Party

This is another Kenny K Digi.  His designs are such fun this card is for another one of my grandsons.  Hope he likes it, I know he likes to get together with his friends for a party often.  It is colored with copics and I have again used DP from Teresa Collins - On The Edge.

Last night I planted some flowers in my garden, we moved two years ago next month, every time I dig I try to add some new topsoil, but whats underneath is clay combined with gravel, and pieces of cement.  Eventually,
maybe I will be able to have a nice garden, but in the meantime lots of hard work.  This is a great time of the year to add to a perennial garden as they are all on sale right now.  Trying to get a nice variety like I had in my old garden, but this area is about 1/4 of the size I had before, there is no way I can get that much variety in this garden, but I keep trying.
