Nursing is a work of the heart.



Good morning! I have a card to share using the adorable "Little Nurse Kathy"...I just love this image!

She will be missed!

Hello


Good morning!  I have a card to share featuring both the current From the Heart Stamps sketch and newest critter...Prickles!  This image is the June Stamp of the Month.

How to color a hedgehog?  I decided to Google pictures of one and discovered that the tips of their "prickles" are white.  I did try to do that...without much luck....  I don't feel I did this adorable critter justice!  I will keep trying!  I used some bright and cheery papers, from my stash, matted with black to make them pop; for embellishing I've used a single button.

Hey Chickie


Good morning!  We have a new sketch for you at Catch the Bug...check it out:


Fun sketch, right?!  I have to admit the hexagons threw me off a bit, but that's why they call it a challenge!  The chicken is colored with pencils and of course I had to add some "glittery eye shadow"...I really couldn't resist.  I was able to work 4 patterned papers into the card...I love it when I can make that work!  I've embellished simply with some Swarovski flatback crystals.  I have a friend in mind for this one...she has chickens at her acreage and is kind enough to give us fresh eggs!

Good morning!  It's time for a new sketch challenge from the Saturday Girls; since it's the 5th Saturday of the month, that means you get to pick your sketch!  We also have a great sponsor this week...Drawn with Character...the images are adorable!  I think I will be doing a bit of shopping....

I used "Coffee and Doughnuts" (thank you to Drawn with Character) and Sketch #225.  Here's the sketch:


I thought this layout would suit the image perfectly and I did minimal layering to keep the focus on the image.  I've done a bit of coloring with pencils and paper pieced the cup.  For embellishing, I've added some glitter to the doughnut and sparkly Bella Dots.

There is No Udder Friend Like You


Good morning!  In addition to Release Day, we have a fun, new challenge for you at Doodle Pantry: Ants in My Pantry Digital Challenge.  Our theme for January is "Milk Day" and we would like to see you use or feature something associated with milk, along with buttons or brads.

I've used a new set called Udder Fun Ants, which includes line art, sentiments, pre-colored images, and patterned papers.  It's a fun set!  I wanted to focus on the blush-toned udder, so I kept the rest of the card monochromatic.  I've done a bit of layering and embellished simply with brads.  The sketch is a past one from Mojo Monday.

Good morning!  It's time for a new sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches; not only is there a great sketch, but a great twist as well...flowers!  Melissa is our sponsor for the week; here is the sketch:


I went with a fun, springy, pre-colored image from Doodle Pantry and paired it with a sentiment and patterned paper from the set.  I've done some layering and put my dies to use; for embellishing I've used some ribbon, and mini flowers with a pearl center.

Friends to the End


Good morning!  We have a new challenge for you from Ruby's Rainbow; for this fortnight Denise has chosen our challenge and she would like to see "Pearls, Flowers, and Charms".  Hmmm, I do have to say that this was indeed a challenge for me!  I had to think "out of the box" a bit....

I went with a fun set from Doodle Pantry, Snowman Pile-Up; it includes line art, pre-colored images, sentiments, and DP...everything you need!  I went with a pre-colored image, a sentiment, and 2 of the DPs.  After printing the elements, I did a bit of layering and added my embellishments; a "flurry" of pearls for snow, a white felt "loopy bloom" flower embellished with a snowflake charm and pearl.  It was fun to see if I could make this challenge work for a winter card!  I also added some glitter to the image, but I didn't capture the sparkle with my photo...it is pretty in real life!

Paper: G.P. 110, PTI Stamper's Select and True Black, Doodle Pantry DP

So...What's Up Chick?


Good morning!  I have a card to share using this week's From the Heart Stamps sketch...it's a great one!

I used one of the Birdbrain Chicks (my favorite of Faith's images!); this little cutie is colored with pencils and she has just a touch of glitter on her spotted tummy and eyes (a girl has got to be glam, right?!).  I put my Spellbinder's dies to good use on this card and did a bit of layering.  For embellishing, I've added some twill and Bella Dots.

Dear friend


Good morning!  I'm have a card and some exciting news from Clearly Digi Stamps...not only is today a new release, but it also opening day of the new store!  Woo hoo...I can't wait to check it out!  I hope you will check it out too, along with the new creations the DT have designed to inspire you.

Today I am working with a new set called Coffee Cup Greetings.  The set includes line art, pre-colored images, sentiments, and DP.  I used a line art image, as I thought this cup would be so fun to paper piece....  It was too...no tricky detail cutting!  Love that!  I pulled out some papers that I thought coordinated perfectly and I also used some bling from my stash that I have been hoarding.  Sometimes I really have a hard time using the stuff that is "extra pretty"!  Does anyone else have that problem?  I simply had to make myself do it!  (I even used one of the gems on the sentiment...to "dot" the "i".)  The sentiment is tied onto the cup handle with twine.

For the next month, Clearly Digi Stamps will be giving away free digis on Thursdays and Sundays.  Click here to see the current offering!

I'm Just a Phone Call Away....


Good morning!  I'm here with a new challenge from the ladies at Creative Card Crew...we would like to see some bling!

In The Garden....


Good morning!  Ruby's Rainbow has a new challenge for this next fortnight; our theme "In The  Garden" was chosen by Shaz.  With zero degree temperatures here at the present, this helps me look forward to spring...I am so ready for it!

As I was looking through my stamps for something to work with, I came across Stella and knew I had to ink her up...I love her quirkiness!  Do you like the smudges of dirt on her face?  She's colored with pencils and I've accented her crown and wand with yellow glitter.  The sketch is from Some Odd Girl; I've done a bit of distressing and added a button/twine for embellishing.

Hey Chickie


I'm back with my second post today!  (Please scroll down for Creative Card Crew post.)  We have another sketch challenge for you at Tuesday Morning Sketches...Jessi designed our sketch this week and I think you'll like it...so many possibilities!

I was trying to come up with a tiny stamp to put in the circles...then I remembered my DeNami chicks...they're perfect!  I colored the cute, tiny chicks with pencils and added a bit of glitter to their bows.  The chick panels are popped up just a bit whereas the sentiment is popped up higher, plus I added some leaves to that flower.  It's pretty simple on one hand, but on the other hand there are a lot of layers.

Image/Sentiment: DeNami
Paper: PTI Stamper's Select, Harvest Gold, and Dark Chocolate, Jillibean Soup DP, My Mind's Eye DP (leaves)
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Sakura Black Gel Pen
Embellie: Doodlebug Glitter
Extras: Prismas/Goo Gone, Spellbinder's Dies, MFT Royal Leaves Die-namics Die, The Paper Studio Sticky Doos

I hope you will head on over to TMS to see what everyone else has created with Jessi's sketch.  What will you create?
