TURTLEY AWESOME / ISSC #19...

I got the new releases from The Alley Way Stamps - they are ADORABLE! This card was made using Sea Mates - I really LOVE this turtle! I thought he would be even cuter paper pieced! I also used this week's iSpy Sketch.

I'm going to let the kids sign this for Jeff for Father's Day - I think they'll really like it!

 Bye for now...

KNOT ANOTHER LIKE YOU / CQC #141 & FTL #194...

Hello! Have you seen the newest colourQ Challenge? My sample card today for colourQ uses the set Tie One On from the Alley Way Stamps! I used the smaller tie to make a pattern using each of the colors and then paper pieced the bigger tie, stamped and colored in dots, drew on the smaller dots and threw on some rhinestones! I traded this card to my dad for lunch, and he's going to send it to my Grandpa Don.

I also played along with the current Fall-To Layout...

Oh, and here's Alex, jumping off the diving board for the first time! He's been taking swim lessons at the "Y" (thanks mom!) and he was so happy and excited!

Thanks for stopping by!

DOMINOES / DHD Digi Morph...

Some of the DHD Decorators hosted a digi morph last month, and there were so many playing along they broke it up into 3 groups. A digi morph is almost like that game "Rumor" you played as a kid, you start with one layout and each person passes their version of it to the next person. It took about 3 and a half weeks to get through everyone. You can see the results here.

Jeff and the kids were playing dominoes, and I snapped some pics. The kits I used were Karen Funk's Whooo Loves You, Shannon Hegarty's Carefree Alpha, and Karla Dudley's Protectors Templates.

 

Okay, back to work...

HELLO / RS #15...

Good afternoon! We're getting ready for Alex's party tomorrow, so I didn't get this posted as early as I'd hoped - but I did get the new RetroSketch challenge up, which is more important anyway, right?

I used 2 sets from the Alley Way Stamps, Talk To Me for the speech bubble and Kitchen Gadgets 2 for the sentiment.

Here's the sketch...

Hope you're having a great weekend!!!

ROSIE / DB #28...

Good morning~ it's time for a new Dilly Beans Challenge!!! Our theme today is "PURPLE", so I grabbed all my purple~y Copics to color this beauty up! The image is called Rosie Framed, isn't she beautiful?

I reached into my ribbon scrap jar for the little button/ribbon bundle! I had to pop the image up using pop dots (2 thick) to be able to sit on top of the button and ribbons! So it's kinda a tall card - LOL!
