Delivery Fairy - A Day for Daisies

Today is the start of a new challenge at Making Memories Crafting and the theme is 'Add Some Layers' so unless you are doing a CAS project, this should be an easy one to follow along.  Our generous sponsors are A Day for Daisies and The Cutting Cafe.  I chose to use the Cute Delivery Fairy from ADFD for my card.
I kept my card fairly simple because I am still trying to familiarize myself with the new craft space.  It's getting easier to remember where I put things, but every time I sit down to make a card, it's like someone sneaked in during the night and moved and hid my 'stuff'.   Sadly, that 'someone' is me. hahhahah.... I do think once I have everything moved to where I want it, this craft space is going to be much better than what I had, simply because it's so much bigger.
Do pop on over to  Making Memories Crafting and check out the gorgeousness the girls on the team put together for this challenge.
Thanks for stopping by.

Happy Birthday

Thanks for stopping by and welcome my new followers!
Today's card is one I made for my daughter-in- law's birthday.  It worked up really quickly because it was a matter of adding the image and sentiment to the document and once it was printed, it didn't take long to colour.  The sentiment is an Audrey Hepburn quote I found a long time ago and I love it.  The image is from A Day for Daisies and this one is Flower Maiden 2.  Have a great week!

Braid in My Hair!

Hope you are all doing well and welcome to my new followers and to the rest of you, thanks for sticking around and visiting me like you do.

A couple of weeks ago, Cathy from Sketch Saturday contacted me asking if I would like to be a guest designer for the month of February.  Like really?... well... yesssss!... I think it took me all of two seconds to shoot off an acceptance email so thanks for having me ladies.

I enjoy working with sketches and this week is especially sweet because A Day for Daisies is the sponsor so I get to use one of their sweet images.  This one is Braid in My Hair and although it would really freak me out to actually have birds in my hair, it is a lovely image and I am able to cope just fine.  I have to admit, it took me a little thinking to get this sketch to work with this gal's braid.  I didn't want to cover that glorious hair so under it we go!  I love these bark shapes by Prima.  I have a couple diferent shapes and although they aren't for every project, I thought it suited this piece because of all the distressing.

Cinderella - Stamps R Us Encore Presentation

The new challenge at Stamps R Us is Encore Presentation and what that means is that you choose a card you are happy with and in order to showcase it again, you simply re-post it.  It must be re-posted, not back-linked.  Now what could be easier that that?  We do not have a sponsor this week but instead, the prize is a guest designer spot for a future challenge.

In the last week of June of this year, A Day for Daisies sponsored our challenge and the image I chose then was Cinderella... as soon as I saw this little gal, I liked her and couldn't wait to colour her so I thought it would be a good choice to re-post.

The image is coloured with Copics and I've used K & Company papers from their Watercolor Bouquet collection. The sentiment is from Stampin Up's Humor in High Heels set and Tiara Stickles are around the edges.

Be sure to dash on over to Stamps R Us and check out what the rest of the DT has created - there's some serious talent and fab inspiration there - I always look forward to each and every new challenge to see what these gals have come up with and they never disappoint.

Cinderella

Our challenge for the next two weeks at Stamps R Us is "there once was a little girl..." and we are being sponsored by the fabulous A Day for Daisies.  It was hard to pick but I finally chose the Cinderella image from the May 2011 release.  The whole collection is cute, cute, cute... as are all her images and I can see I will be doing some shopping over there.

The image is coloured with Copics and I've used K & Company papers from their Watercolor Bouquet collection.  The sentiment is from Stampin Up's Humor in High Heels set and the I used Tiara Stickles to go  around the edges.

Challenges:

Color Me Creative - image must have pleats, folds or ruffles

A Day for Daisies - pastels but no pink

Mom's Scarf - A Day for Daisies

This image is from A Day for Daisies & is called Mom's Scarf.  I've had it coloured for ages & finally got it put together for a card which is a sketch from A Day for Daisies Challenge Blog.  I coloured the image with Copics & used my Magnolia Doohickey Die for the flower.  The ribbon is Stampin Up, the brads Basic Grey & the paper is a piece from Creative Imaginations.  I love those two sided papers because they take all the work out of selecting a couple papers.  The inside stamp is from Lili of the Valley's Set 10 called A-5 Verses.
