Sweet Sketch Wednesday 52 - Kindred Spirits

It's been a busy week and weekend, but I managed to squeeze a card in... I made this card for a couple getting married on the 19th of June. Unfortunately my hubby and I will be away and are not able to attend the wedding :( They are not the "love bird and flowers" type of people, so I opted to go a little "dark" for their card. I know that they will appreciate it, being untraditional as they are!

I used Sweet Sketch Wednesday #52 and the image is from Tiddly Inks called The Happy Couple.

Thanks for taking a peek, now I have to get busy on my Dad's Father's Day card!

Happy Sunday!

Sweet Sketch Wednesday 51- LET'S GO FLYERS!!!

I live in a Philly Suburb, so of course, I am sporting orange today, as is everyone I have seen so far this morning in my area. Why do you ask?? In honor of the first game of the Flyers in their quest for the CUP!!! I am heading to my uncle's house today for a dual purpose party, Memorial Day and the Flyers! They are die hard, and I mean DIE HARD fans. I just had to make a card to bring over with me. I hope that they get a kick out of it!

I used the image Hockey Beary by Prairie Fairy Designs. I also used Sweet Sketch Wednesday Challenge #51.

I made the little pennant out of plain 'ole white cardstock, using a font in Microsoft Word. Then inked it up a bit and glued it to a toothpick. I hand drew the little puck on the image as well.

I hope that everyone has fun today, in whatever you may be doing!

Thanks for taking a peek and LET'S GO FLYERS!!!!!!!!!!!

Celebrate - A double challenge!

Happy Friday everyone!

Hope that everyone is getting ready for a good weekend! The weather is as promised here... sunny and warm! I also lucked out on the yard work for today too ;) My hubby finished right before I returned home from my sister's house.. hehe

My uncle's birthday is coming up in a few weeks and I always struggle with masculine cards. So when I saw the new release from Meljen's Designs called A Dog's Day and the Challenge #8 Seeing Spots. I felt inspired by the image called Chili Chihuahua! He loves Mexican food and Sangria.. How perfect!

I also combined it with the Sweet Sketch Wednesday Challenge #50.

I printed out a few copies of the image and then hand cut peppers for the side and a set to raise on the image itself. Not sure if it showed that well in the pic, as usual :(

I hope that you all have a great weekend!

Thanks for stopping by :)

Way to Go Dana!!!!

Hello everyone!

I hope that you all had a good Monday!

I am back with a card.... go figure ;)

My niece Dana, who is 8, just made the traveling soccer team after a grueling week of try-outs! I am so proud of her and just had to make a card to send her! The teams colors are blue and yellow which is why I chose this color combo... Had to make her authentic, ya know?

I used the Sweet Sketch Wednesday #49. Another wonderful sketch by Arlana!

This image is by Mo Manning at Mo's Digital Pencil. She is Soccer Girl.

Thanks for taking the time to check out my blog and leave a comment, I really appreciate it!

Sweet Sketch #48 Happy Mother'sDay

Happy Friday everyone!

I can finally post this card as my Mom won't see it on my blog now. This is her Mother's Day card, again not very traditional, but I wanted the same type of image that I used on my sister's card.

This card was made using Sweet Sketch #48 over at Sweet Sketch Wednesday. This was a really cool sketch and I had a lot of fun with it! Thanks Ariana!

The image is by Mo Manning at Mo's Digital Pencil and is called I Love It. How cute is this little girl????

She was colored in with my ever trusty Copics and I inked all of the edges of the paper with ColorBox Chalk Ink in Chestnut Roan.

Thanks for stopping by and for leaving a comment, they make my day!
