Happy St. Patty's Day!

Hi all!! I hope you are having a wonderful St. Patrick's Day wherever you are! Sorry for the late post, we had some issues this morning getting to school, but everything's fine now.

My card today is a cute little House Mouse. Looks like he found his four leaf clover!!! He's so cute!! I colored him with my Prismacolor pencils and OMS with blending stumps. I also added some glitter pen to the flowers and the four leaf clover for some sparkle. My patterned paper is by Best Creation Inc. and has glittery clovers on it. The clover leaf flowers I had in my stash and the clover confetti is from Michael's.I cut my sentiment out with my nesties and popped it up on pop dots.

I hope you enjoy my card today. I love this image. I think it's so cute!! For the inside, I randomly arranged the confetti in an oval so I could put my sentiment/note in the center.

Thanks for stopping by my blog today. I really appreciate you. Be sure to leave me a comment so I'll know you were here!! See you later!

It's a Hedgehog Valentine!!

Happy Tuesday everyone!!

I can't believe Valentine's Day is this weekend!! I have such cute Valentine stamps that I haven't gotten to use yet!! What's a girl to do? I guess I could post 3 or 4 times a day until then. Okay I can't, because I can't seem to find enough time to make the stuff that I want to post! So I 'll get to the point.

I did this adorable Penny Black Hedgehog for Valentine's Day. It is such a cute image, I love it!! I colored it with my Prismacolor Pencils and OMS. He was such fun to color! Isn't it great to color images that we love. You get to watch the black and white picture develop into a colorful personality. Anyway, here's my card for today.

I stamped the inside sentiment and used my Martha Stewart scalloped heart punches to decorate the inside.
I hope you like it and will come back tomorrow to see what I have planned for Flutterby Wednesday. Be sure to leave me a comment and let me know you were here. I love to read them.

I know this is last week's challenge. I'm trying to catch up!! I colored the image with my prismacolor pencils and OMS with blending stumps.I love Changito. He is so cute!! I used some yummy My Mind's Eye paper for my card. I used stickles glitter around the flower. I hope Madelynn likes it!! I layered lots of Bazzill cardstock on just like the sketch and some May Arts ribbon and dew drops to finish it off.

I hope you enjoyed my card. Thanks for stopping by my blog. Stop by again soon and look at my card for this week's Twinkling Tuesday sketch.

My First House Mouse!!!

Happy Monday!! I just had to share my very first House Mouse!! I have always loved these little mice, but have always been intimidated by them. I wasn't sure that I could color them to look right. I think I did okay. What do you think?? (Be gentle!) I think they are so cute!

I colored this sweet little mouse with my Prismacolors and OMS. I used Cloud Nine Valentine papers and Bazzill cardstock. The camera is not showing the embossed hearts on the patterned paper, but they are cute!. I used Martha Stewart punches "love" and "hearts" for my sentiment. I used Stickles on the heart for a little sparkle. I'm sorry the carmera is not picking up on the sparkle. One of these days, I will figure this thing out completly. LOL I also managed to make this from the Splitcoast sketch SC212. Yea, I did a sketch challenge!! I'm so proud of myself!

I hope you like my card and I really appreciate you stopping by to take a peek. Please come back and see what I'm up to tomorrow!! Have a great day!

A Simple Baby Welcome

Hi everyone! This will be a quick post. Today is just a simple little welcome baby card that I made a while back, but haven't posted. Sometimes you don't need a lot of embellishment to make a cute, sweet card. I used my Prismacolor pencils and OMS to color in my image. This is an Imaginisce stamp (giraffe). I'm sorry but I cannot remember whose stamps the little images are from. Maybe Stampendous?? The sentiment is an A Muse Artstamp.

I punched out my stamped image with an oval scalloped Marvy Uchida punch and the green mat with my Coluzzle. I ran the green piece through the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots folder for some texture. I popped the giraffe oval and the sentiment up on pop dots for added dimension. I used those cute little button brads from Making Memories on the sentiment block. I attached a strip of brown grosgrain ribbon across the front of the card.

On the inside of the card, I cut a piece of white cardstock and stamped a little baby bib in the corner and colored it with my Prismas and OMS. So cute and quick!

I hope you like my simple little card and come back soon to see what I'm up to next. I really appreciate you stopping by to look at my work, it means a lot. See you soon!!
