Bear Hugs To The Rescue

Hello yet again blogging friends. This has to be a record of the most consecutive days of posting a card on my blog. Don't get used to though because I don't think I can keep it up for too much longer. 

Sadly this is going to be my last card as a Di's Digi Download DT member. I'm bummed that I had to step down but I have over committed myself with DT responsibilities and need to let some of them go. It's not fair to the companies I represent to not give 100% or to myself to be super stressed about getting my cards made. It was hard deciding which team to step down from. Di's term was open ended so I felt like it was the best one to drop at this time. If I still feel like I can't give 100%, I will reevaluate my other Design Teams when their terms end. I will still use Di's images because I adore them.

Simply Betty Stamps Meets Fussy and Fancy

Happy Friday friends, today I am sharing a card that I made for 2 of my DT's. This cards was made for Simply Betty Challenge All about Rio. We were challenged to use any Rio image, black as the main color and a skull embellishment. At Fussy and Fancy Lisa is challenging us to Make a Card For a Child.Usually this is not my week to post for Fussy and Fancy but one of my fellow DT members needed some extra time so I offered to switch weeks. 

I combined Back To School Rio(Simply Betty Stamps) with the Bubblegum Machine from Patties Creations Digital Stamps. I think this is a perfect card for a preteen or teen age girl. They may not consider themselves a child but we all know that they till are. 

I hope you all have a fabulously crafty weekend.

Simply Betty Challenges: Rio image, Black, Skull embellishment
Fussy and Fancy: Card For a Child

SISC 54 Let's Go Retro

Hello everyone, today there is a new challenge over at StampInsanity. Tanya, the new DT Coordinator Extraordinaire at StampInsanity has challenged us to go Retro. Yikes, I have to say that this challenge truly challenged me. To me the 80's is not retro but I'm figuring to the young people out there it is, lol. 

 Did you notice my new blog banner and design? I want to thank Stacy from Vampire Craftin for hooking me up with a cool looking blog. If you like the way it turned out I highly encourage you to head over to her blog or Facebook Page  and let her know.

Fussy and Fancy 33

Hello and Happy Friday everyone. I have 2 posts for you today, this is the first. This is my card for Fussy and Fancy Challenge 33. Chelsea has challenge us to use a zipper or feather on our projects. This was most definitely a challenge for me because I have never used either in my crafting. With all the cool zipper flowers out there I figured I give it a try. The zipper was white because I didn't know what I was going to do when we got it (Jennifer and I spit one zipper). I figured I could dye it what ever color I wanted to once I made my flower. My daughter picked black so she can wear it in her hair whenever she wants without having to worry about it matching. Now I need to go out and get more zippers so I can make her a few more in different colors. 

Here is the tutorial I used to make my flower. She kind of talks a lot but I thought her tutorial was pretty easy to follow.
