A Tweet Christmas

Happy Tuesday~ This week at Holly Jolly Christmas Challenge Blog, our challenge is one I got to choose...A Christmas card using Birds! This is the card I have made with that theme for this week. The image is from Bugaboo Digi Stamps called Winter Birds - Snowman. As usual, it was colored using Prismacolor Watercolor Pencils and an Aqua Brush. Cut out with Nesties and mounted on DP from my stash. 

Thanks so much for visiting today...please be sure to pop over to Holly Jolly and check out the rest of the Design Teams' inspiration, and of course, join in the fun this week!!

My Sketch At Come and Get It

Happy Sunday! I hope you are all having a FANTASTIC Weekend! As this is posting, I will be  in N.W. Arkansas on the Elk River floating in a raft! We go yearly with work, and last year ended a bit sad. They took us off the river earlier than anticipated due to incoming inclement weather. Within an hour of getting home, we heard the news of the Tornado in Joplin, Missouri...just 50 miles from where we had been floating! Needless to say, a day we will never forget~

Back to business....Today's card is for the Sketch Challenge at Come and Get It Challenges! I am the hostess this week, and I designed the sketch - GO ME!  LOL

I hope you will all stop over and play along with us this week! Our Sponsor is Fred She Said Designs , and you will have the chance to win $10 in their store! WOO HOO!
Thanks for coming to visit today...have a Blessed Sunday!

Hello, Baby~

Happy ALMOST T.G.I.F....LOL. My card today was made for 2 reasons - for my Nephew's Girlfriend's Baby Shower ( that is a doozy, eh?) and for Oldie But Goodie Thursday at Catch the Bug!  I have used JJPregnant - Back Pain...isn't she cool? She is holding a Chocolate Bar...always perfect for what ails you! Since they are having a boy ( my first Great- Nephew) I did her all up in Blue. The gingham matches her Baby Shower invitation, and since I KNOW she will be saving everything from Easton's Shower, I wanted to make it special. Can you tell I am excited about this baby? I just wish my Momma was here to meet her first Great Grandchild...

Anyway, I hope you will swing over and see the rest of the Design Team's creations, and check out the adorable Digis at Bugaboo Digi Stamps~
