momma made jaime some zucchini bread, i think she liked it. lol

i only have three words for my hardworking daughter
FIERCE
FABULOUS
FUN
she totally rocks!!!

this is a pic of my adorable daughter jaime. she is da bomb!!

well whataya know, blurry again. jeepers i gotta practice the picture thing. this was a splitcoast color challenge, blush blossom, sage shadow and close to cocoa. i used punches for the little flowers and butterfly, i colored some little adhesive pearls with a copic marker to match, used the cuttlebug for the background texture.
well thats it for now i will try not to leave such a big time span for the next time i post, i am so sorry about that. all of you stay happy, stay sweet and stay stampin. hugs candy cane

this card came out so PINK but i still like it. the cupcakes are from inkadinkado and the d.p. is some random paper i have in a drawer. this was a sketch challenge from splitcoast i think, from a while back. colored the cupcakes with prismacolor pencils and gamsol.

this is a card we did in my tuesday class, we inked the cuttlebug embossing folder and embossed on white c.s. it really came out neat and i cant wait to try the technique again. the sentiment and c.s. and ink is all from stampin up.

whipper snapper designs

well this is my favorite new card, of course i am a dog lover and as usual its kinda blurry, i am not much of a photographer. the inside says something like 'the best way to end a really bad day is covered in dog slobber." i thought that was the bomb, my sister found the sentiment so i had to shop for a doggie stamp, found this on the net at whippersnapper designs.

hey how ya doin'? here is my card for the sketch challenge on mojo monday sketch #42 , i have recently found out you can get the plain rhinestones and color them with your copic markers and make them any color you want. so now i have orange rhinestones to go with my orange bird. the d.p. is bali breeze from s.u. mounted on pumpkin pie on a fold of tempting turquoise. hope you like and thats all for today folks. hope you have enjoyed seeing these as much as i have enjoyed creating them for you.
have a fabulous and fierce rest of the weekend

well i have to admit that i have never heard of the serendipity technique before, but this weeks challenge at magnolia was just that. they posted some very good examples and places to see more about the technique so i played along. the technique is basically tearing little bits of paper and gluing them on a base to make a collage type of background. its a little tedious but wow! what a cool look, if you click on the picture you can get a close up of it. so here is my card for week #24 challenge. i dearly love my magnolia stamps, i just cant get enough of their cute little faces. well on with the show....

are ya still with me? my next picture is a card that i did for the friday sketchers week #7. this has got to be one of my all time favorites! the stamp is from magnolia and most of the c.s. is stampin up and of course it wouldn't be me without the prismacolor pencils. hope you like! fridaysketchers post a new sketch every friday
