 I have a quick Christmas card to share.  This sweet digi is a freebie from Beccy's Place and I've used it several times.

I colored the ribbon on a second image, cut it out  and popped it up for some added dimension.

 This shot shows the shimmer of this great paper from My Minds Eye.

"Roses Are Red, Dear, Violets Are Blue..."

"Angels in Heaven, know I love you.  Know I love you dear, know I love you.  Angels in Heaven know I love you!"  Did you know that is the 2nd verse of "Down In The Valley"?  I think I learned it when I was a kid but had forgotten it.  When I think of it now, in my head I hear that great big prisoner in the movie "Green Mile" (I think) singing it.  He had a beautiful voice and that was such a touching scene. 

Anyway......it's Tuesday Throwdown day!  Our theme is "Roses Are Red, Violets Are Blue" and we are sponsored by Simply B Stamps.    Boy!  She has some awesome stuff!  I was honored to get to use her "My Funky Valentine Betty" and here's what I created:

 I did a lot of practicing on this girl before I got her colored good enough to use!  I colored 3 images before I got the clothes right and 2 more trying to get the hair right!  But in the end, I'm very happy with this card!

Black & White Wedding Card

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!

Wow!  2014!!!!  How did that get here so fast?  I hope you all have a wonderful, blessed year!

I made this black and white wedding card.

An Autumn Tag

Hello Bloggies!  It's time again for a challenge at My Sheri Crafts.  Sandy challenged us to create "Anything Fall/Thanksgiving Related".  I had two of this sunflower digi colored up and laying on my workdesk, just waiting to be used.  So I made a tag to use for a "Thank You" gift.

 

The digi is from Robyn's Fetish and colored with Spectrum Noir pens.  I used the second digi to pop up the top of the flower.  I used two sets of Spellbinders dies to cut the layers and the tag itself is cut with Tags, Bags, Boxes and More cartridge.  The sentiment stamp is from Studio G.   

 

So this challenge shouldn't be too hard!  Come on over and join us!

Thank You Sew Much - My Sheri Crafts #120

Hello!  Happy Saturday!  We are having some beautiful Autumn weather.  I love this time of year!  The weather is cooling off and makes me think of evenings cozied up in my chair cross-stitching.  So this week's challenge at My Sheri Crafts is perfect!  Sue chose the theme "Stitch In Time"-make a project which includes a sewing theme. 

I chose this cute bear digi, "Patch", from Stamping Boutique to make a Thank You Card:

 I used Spellbinders dies to cut him out.  The patterned paper is from Melody Ross.

He's colored with my Spectrum Noir markers and I used a silver glitter gel pen to accent some of the dots around him.

 The sentiment is computer generated and cut out with Tags, Bags, Boxes and More and some gems from my stash.  I've used some of them on the corners of the image cut, too.  I've anchored the sentiment with a little bit of ribbon and some flower brads.

The inside is completed with scraps!  I really like how this card turned out!

 

So come on over to My Sheri Crafts and stitch up some fun!  Thanks for stopping by!
