Because we have tons of trees around us, I rarely see a sunset in the summertime. Winter is when I get to see them, and here is the first one of this season:

Hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

A Little Stud-muffin!

Hello! Today I am sharing a card I made to enter the Lawnscaping Challenge: Lawnscaping Challenge: Color Splash sponsored by ELLEN HUTSON ! Here's my card: I'm planning to give this to my husband. We celebrate our 20th anniversary next month! I used the Lawn Fawn sets Love 'n Breakfast, and Fly Away With Me. I really hope you like my card, and thanks for stopping by!

Ladybug Crafts Ink Challenge Blog!

There is still time to do the Ladybug Crafts Ink Blog Hop and Challenge! Here is the card I made to enter into their first ever challenge! The stamp is from LCI, and is one of the new Cupcake Cuties.

I also used Dimensional Pearls on the Cutie's shirt, and colored the image with Copics. Dimensional Pearls and Stickles are from Ranger.

The flowers are white paper pressed into into "Squeezed Lemonade" Distress Ink. I stamped the centers with Soft Canteloupe from Hero Arts, but it was very bright over the yellow, so I toned it down and added some sparkle with some sequins from Ellen Hutson and Studio Calico. The leaves are green neon ink from Hero Arts, and The white ink is from Color Box. The white gel pen is Signo, the blue jewels are from Doodlebug Designs, the ribbon is from Amer...
