For a Sweet Friend

Hi everyone ! It's time for another challenge..the Lacy Sunshine girls are playing with
DIES and/or PUNCHES 
I have used both on my card. I have used Rory Lucky Clovers I have tweaked her a little to make her versatile . I added a flower where the clover is and just covered along the bottom.Although you can't see I actually just colored the grass not showing the clover. My papers are from Authentique.Now for my dies and punches...the butterfly ,hearts, center flower and branches are made from punches.The dangling heart is from Memory Box.


The butterfly antenna is actually from a roll of twigs from the dollar store.It had these buds continuously .I just cut off a piece to add to it.


Now the flower I had made from three different sized circle punches . I distress the edges and brushes with distress ink. Now I took these little puff balls from a storage box I had gotten years ago.I thought they would be perfect for a shaker as snowballs. Then as I stared at them I thought..huh cute for flower center.I also brushed on some liquid pearls just to give a soft touch to them.I did try to spray them,but apparently they melt when you heat them lol.And not just melt but melt away !!



Now I took the paper that I punched the circles out of and added cardstock to the background .Then punched some more hearts out and put them into the circles.Complete fluke that this worked out lol

Hi my crafty friends ! I hope all is well.Sorry I've been missing from here.My youngest daughter has joined hockey and soccer as well as my middle daughter is graduating here in a month .So my craft time is limited...that's ok.My mojo seems to be limited as well lol.
So anyways...I am posting for the first time as a DT member for Lacy Sunshine Designs. And the challenge for this fortnight is

Easy peasy right..I am featuring Eleanor Tubing Fun
Perfect for that hot summer weather ! Although for me I had snow last week...now rain...hopefully soon will be consistent sun!

New Flower Pot Pretty

Hi It's Saturdayat means my turn to feature for Lacy Sunshine Creative Design Team. And I get to show you this new image named Gerry Geranium from the Flower Pot Pretty line. 

I have to admit I called my momma to ask her what color geraniums were.This was a challenge to color.I do hope I got it right.

My paper is from Farmhouse Paper Company - SugarHill collection.Now it is a fall line but I wanted the kinda country look. And you'll notice NO FLOWERS ...I know !! But I wanted the only flowers featured on the image .


Wooden pieces from Kaisercraft...

Bunny in a Basket

Oh my I totally forgot I had promised you I would post another Easter card. I am always late lol...yep I'm the Alice in wonderland bunny....I'm late, I'm late for an very important date " Speaking of bunny...here is a sweetie from Dustin Pike.I've had this for awhile and never colored up...shame shame on me for negelcting all these images I have. 
This image was super easy to color.I think maybe I will try to color him a different color than the typical same old.Maybe pink lol 
Todays card I actually used a Easter line of paper from We R Memory Keepers. Such an adorable line of paper.Now I took my Egg die and cut out of honeycomb. Makes a fun egg.You can really go to town decorating it as well.I went simple with a little ribbon and some floral. I topped the card off with a button from my stash with the Stampin Up sentiment.
