Express yourself Colorful Friend

Hello, hello...I have been MIA these past weeks. I really lost my mojo and I was thinking if this was the direction I wanted to go to...I felt lost and tired after our last vacation and this got me thinking...I still don't feel completely back again and that is why I went with a simple card today.


The image is Painting Ladybug and it was given for FREE from Delighful Inspiration if you played last month's progressive challenge.


My lighting is not very good today and I tried fixing it but it just wouldn't work...

I'm entering this card into the following:

No Color or Monochromatic Challenge - The Stamping Chef

Hello everyone and welcome to another challenge from The Stamping Chef. The theme this week is No Color or Monochromatic. I went with the No Color one and boy, was I stumped! It was very tricky to me and I was not sure if the face and hands could be colored or not?

Finally, I used up Stickles and embossed the card and the mat with both my e/f and Scor-Buddy respectively. Sentiment is from Create from TLC and ribbons is from stash. Image is Lucy's Cookie.




Please do visit my teamies here and leave them some love.

Patriotic Blog Hop



Hello and welcome to this patriotic blog hop. Today, we were asked to create a project with the colors Red, Blue & White. I went with a CAS card using the Fresh Squeezed Stamps.




Used up some Washi tapes to create the strip in the middle and the star on the upper right is from Hero Arts. To finish the card, I used my corner rounder. I am the last stop and if you are lost, please find the line up below:






Please note that Susan and Ashley are giving away some candy. It would be great if you would become a follower of my blog. Enjoy the hop!

Click - Say Cheese!

Helloooooo, I'm back!!! My family and I took last week off to celebrate the first week of the summer holidays in Niagara Falls US. I have always wanted to be there but never had the chance to do so...We did have a nice time over there even though the weather was not cooperating the first day but the rest of the week, it was awesome!

Today, I am using the sketch from Mojo Monday and they're celebrating their 300th sketch! They are one of my fave sketches that I like to go to. Of course, there are tons of prizes to be won.

 I chose to do my own patterned papers by first embossing the blue cardstock with my dots e/f and then adding some white pigment ink over. Secondly, I used the "Say Cheese" for a tone on tone pattern.
