Card no. 104 - Welcome Sweet Baby

Good evening/or morning ...

I had this cute Mo Manning image colored for a few days, sitting on my desk, and today I've finally found a little bit of time to give her a good home (on a card).

My wonderful sister's been playing with the girls while I could sneak in few minutes behind my desk.

I, of course, colored her with my Copics, ProMarkers & ShinHan Markers. I sparkled her dress and wings with StarDust Stickles. Flowers are from Magnolia and Prima. Papers are by Pebbles (Ever After Collection - sooo super cute!). Ribbons are from JoAnn and so are the rhinestones.The tickets are by Inkadinkado and the inside sentiments by Recollections and Technique Tuesday.

I used the wonderful sketch from this week's Fussy & Fancy Friday Challenge.

"Krafty" Inspiration at the Inky Blog

Hello!!!

I am back from the hibernation. LOL
The move's been brutal. The hardest one.
BUT

It's over and I have finally finished setting up my "play"/craft room (and almost everything else) and I am SO ready to start taking time off - crafting.

It was my turn at the Inky Impressions Blog to inspire you.

I was myself inpired by THE super talented Kylie's Kraft card and wanted to give it a go.
I didn't really use my white pencil that good and I couldn't figure out how to give it that soft look, but I am quite pleased how it turned out. The embellishments are all over the place and it looks a little busy - out of my comfort zone - but sometimes it is good to try new things. Right?

I used Inky Impressions stamp - Lili's Present (of course) colored with my Copics and ShinHan markers, I added a little Martha Stewart tag with MS twine, base is made from Kraft paper picked up at JoAnn's, Stickles, DP from my scrap stash - My Mind's Eye and Basic Gray, ribbon, lace, Prima flowers, pearls from Michael's and that goooorgeous butterfly die is by Cheery Lynn Design.

I hope you're enjoying your week.

My "little" sister came to visit and she is the sweetest thing! The girls can't get enough of her and I am so happy to have her here! Sisters are the best!
Especially when they are so fabulous!

Off to play with my kids & my sis ....

I am entering the Basic Gray Challenge - Stitching 

Enjoy the rest of your Wednesday!

Card no. 100 - Yaaay! My hundredth card - Just Magnolia + Simon Says + more

Hello Ladies!!! Happy Thursday - I've had a though week, but I think the closer it's getting to the weekend the better.  I am still struggling to find "the perfect" place in Phoenix and my hubby suggested I have to let go of my perfectionism - ehm... first, I am not a perfectionist - you should see my house - it looks like a bomb exploded here - and second, I don't think I can - it's just too important to me. He'll be working 16-hour days, so I'll be the one in the house - I need to like it. Also, the school system is the TOP of my list, so we've been researching and researching. Once you have school age kids it's a whole another game.

Anywhoo ... I am not sure if you've noticed, but this is my 100th Card since I started posting (I think about 2 years ago). Yay! Keep your eyes and ears peeled for some deliciousness.... probably will put it together today or tomorrow.

OK, now for the business LOL ... this is a suuuuper cute baby from Magnolia - check out those bunny slippers! Just yummy!  I colored this cutie with my Copics & ProMarkers with few ShinHans. I used the Shake-It pouch and added confetti & MS glitter. I had to seal it with my ZipDry, because I don't think it seals that well. 

I used the Just Magnolia's Week 101 - Sketch Challenge & Simon Says Stamp - Card For A Child. Perfect combo :) - My sweet friend had her 2nd baby girl and I just had to make it all pink!  I used the brand new papers from Imaginisce - Enchanted - If the Crown fits. Oh, so delicious!

Also, these challenges are awesome (and I am entering this card):
