Snowy Blues

My dear friend, and fellow DT member at Come and Get It Challenges, Cindy, is a Guest Designer this week at A La Card Monkey Challenge Blog. Their theme this week is Christmas, and they have a sketch they would like you to  use. I am SO not a tag person, but I enjoyed this one, to be honest. One of my favorite colors for Christmas is the non-traditional blue. I have TONS of DP in blues, but need to get some card stock to match...LOL. I lucked out on this one, and went with the silver to pretty it up.
Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a Terrific Thursday!

A Song In Their Hearts

 This week at Come and Get It Challenges, we have a Sketch Challenge by Shell! I just love this Digi stamp, and thought it would be cute with the music note brads. It is hard to see, but I also embossed the turquoise paper with the music Fiskars Embossing Plate. I have several musician friends, so this will definitely go to one of them.

We hope you will join us with this week Sketch! Thanks for stopping by...Have a FANTASTIC SUNDAY!

Relax.....

I made this card for my dearest friend of almost 40 years, Darla. Her birthday is Thursday, so I had to get it made and into the mail. I knew for sure I wanted to use this adorable Digi from Bugaboo Stamps, so I went looking for a cool sketch and found one at The Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge. 
I have had this Bubble DP in my stash for ages and thought it would work perfectly...and it did! Guess I like this one...hehehehe.


Along with the sketch challenge, I will also enter this card into the following:

The Falling Leaves....

This week over at Come And Get It Challenges, I get to host a Color Challenge. With Fall on its way ( it officially begins September 23rd) I thought it would be fun to use some Fall Colors!
I chose Red, Brown and Orange, but any Fall colors work as long as those 3 are included!
I started with this adorable Charlie Fall stamp from Clear Dollar Stamps, and colored him with my faithful water color crayons. Then I found some DP in my stash and some cute Leaf Buttons to finish it all off.
Along with the Come and Get It challenge, I would also like to enter my card into the following:

The Poodles Parlour - Animal Antics
Stamp Something - Anything Goes
Totally Paper Crafts - Cute with Buttons
Craft Us Crazy - Autumn Colors
Crazy 4 Challenges - Fall Colors

Also, before I close, I would like to send prayers of strength and hope to all of the families of 9/11. It was a day we will never forget~

Opps, I almost missed it!

My Dear Friend, Cindy, is a Guest Designer over at A La Card Monkey Challenges, and I told her I was gonna play along, too~ Well, I made this card last night, and almost forgot to post it! The Challenge is to use the sketch and make a card that looks like Autumn. I had this Pumpkin Digi from McMahon 5 all colored up, so I used it to do this challenge.

I better get over and link this one up..LOL. I have made it by 2 hours...
I would also like to enter this one into the challenge over at  Craft Us Crazy which is to use Autumn Colors.
