Sealed with Love

Happy Friday!
Today is the first day of a SUPER cute release of seals!

I have the privilege of using "Summer Seal Playing"!  Isn't this a sweetie!?!

She is colored with Shin Han and Copic markers.  The patterned paper is from My Mind's Eye!

My fellow Design Team members have also used these cute seals and have added floral papers!

Please join us for our upcoming challenge!  Use floral paper!  Check out all the details on the A Day for Daisies Blog!  

I hope you get a chance to enjoy this weekend, and make something beautiful!!
Thanks for stopping by my blog!

I hope you dance!

Friday is here!!!

I am in full graduation mode as my second child graduates.

And in full reflection mode, too.  Memories!  Not just of my own child graduating but the wonderful people she has brought into my life.

My daughter's oldest friend was the inspiration behind this card.  She is a dancer.  She is a joy to watch and a blessing to know!

The image used is Magical Bloom Dancer from A Day for Daisies:

She was printed on watercolor paper.  I used Tim Holtz Distress and Stampin' Up inks to watercolor her.

I have previewed what my teammates have done and you will not want to miss their creations!

Enjoy your Friday!

Napping with Daisies

Napping with daisies?  Really?

Well, no not really... I am just continuing the theme of "Long Winter's Nap" that I started yesterday, but with images from A Day for Daisies.

Ready for a nap???

Well I am ready for a nap!  

I had my first ever gall bladder attack this past Saturday evening.   It didn't let up, so I got tests, and then surgery!  

Though I feel better every day, I am still ready for a nap!

Well, six months ago, I became a part of the "Dirt Pile"  a.k.a. SplitCoastStampers design team.  My work was displayed in an amazing members only gallery!

I can now show you some of those cards!
The theme was "A Long Winter's Nap":

No stamp used here, just a coloring page resized for a card;

Stamp Credits: Rubbernecker Stamps for backgrounds (They are the best place for background stamps!!!); and  Verve for the coffee cups and sentiment;

I hope you enjoyed this little walk down memory lane with me... Now I am going to nap... ;)


Please post a comment if you have any questions about these cards or any other cards on my blog.

Dancing Roses

Woo Hoo!  it is Friday! AND if you are here, that means you made it through!!!

Today I have a sweetie that is dancing for joy right along with you!!
"Little Dancer Rose" was just released last week from A Day for Daisies!

I thought she would be so much fun up close! (her original digital size is actually much larger than this! ;) )

She is colored with Copic markers.
The sentiment is from a floral set from Rubbernecker Stamps.

I have previewed what my teammates have done and you will not want to miss their creations!
