Sending Hugs

Just a quick post today - my computer keeps heating up so I can not stay on for very long-- ackkkk!

This is for today's Splitcoaststampers Sketch Challenge.

I used Papertrey Ink's Pretty Peonies Anniversary stamp set plus a new Simon Says Stamp Set (that my daughter ordered two of - so I was the fun recipient of the double - yay!  the perks of becoming your mother...lol)

I used a touch of Wink of Stella on the flowers - you can see the shine in the second and third photo....love it - so pretty!

Off to the golf course - tis the season!!

Welcome Baby!

Yes, it is another baby card!! - there seems to be a wonderful Baby Boom around our area - proof of God's love and that life goes on.

I followed the colour challenge at Splitcoaststampers this week - my colours are Melon Berry, Spring Moss and Ripe Avocado.

I partially stenciled the MFT Spring Flowers stencil with Melon Berry ink and then adhered the panel to Melon Berry cardbase. I swiped everything with Chai ink to give it a good grounding.

I die cut the scallops with the MFT Medium Simply Scallop Dienamics and adhered them to the card.  Then I die cut and stamped the MFT Onesie with the Beautiful Baby stamp set, and ended with a Melon Berry bow at the top - loving that satin ribbon!!  The addition of enamel dots was perfect - imho.......

Good Times Colour Challenge!

Good morning - today I decided to chip in with the Splitcoaststampers colour challenge - here are the beautiful colours

I decided to use my Happy Camper Dienamics - I am definitely NOT a camper but I do love this Dienamics set!

I diecut the camper from white cardstock and then, with some scraps, I diecut the accent pieces with reds and yellows.  I used a copic marker to dot along the side of the camper.

The flowers are from the Artist's Palette Die-namics.  I diecut the splotches of paint and used my stylus to indent them a bit to give them some depth to look like flowers.  I adhered a couple of flowers with dimensionals onto the patterned paper which also has some die cut blades of grass from the Tall Grassy Edge Dienamics.

The Accent It Celebrate Dienamics is so cool - It has four words and one of them was Good Times - and for some people I am sure camping is a great time - just not me LOL!

Have a Wonderful Day!!

CAS Challenge Baby!!

Good Morning and another gorgeous morning in beautiful Southwestern Ontario!

I had the most wonderful Mother's Day ever yesterday!! - Our whole family, along with Ron's mother and my mother were here with us to celebrate the baptism of our grandson, Gibson.  It was a fabulous day, with family and extended family everywhere - my heart is FULL!!

This morning I played in the CAS Challenge at Splitcoast Stampers.  We were challenged to use three out of five of these beautiful colours.  I chose to go gender neutral by using only the greens and the yellow.

I used My Favorite Things Bokeh Builder stamp set and MFT Dienamics Oh Baby!

I didn't think that  Bokeh Builder would be my forte - all those dots that you have to stamp in a certain place - yikes!! But - let me tell you - this set is fabulous because the dots are joined together so that you don't have to think too much about placement!!

Love it - there are also one of two single dots that you can use to fill in - It really made it so much simpler - yes, my brain is not that type of brain lol

I also used some Lemon Tart ribbon - I love twine but I am IN love with ribbon - always have been - always will be!

Stamps: Bokeh Builder (My Favorite Things)
Cardstock: White, Lemon Tart, Spring Moss (Papertrey Ink)
