Thinking Of You
Hello and happy Friday to all of you! My LSS, The Paper Cottage, has added a new line of stamps to their store and they are some of the cutest fairies ever!
This image is Mariella from the Angelica and Friends Collection. If you don't live near The Paper Cottage, you can also find these adorable fairies at Crafter's Companion. I colored her with copics and colored pencils and then used Glamour Dust on her wings and the flowers. I also used Liquid Pearls around the outside of the image. The hearts die and greenery flourish die are both from The Memory Box. I punched the flowers with my EK Success punches and added a pearl to the center of each flower. That sweet sentiment comes with the stamp set!
Thank you so much for stopping by. Have a great day!

Happiness Is Knowing You
Hello sweet friends. I hope you've had an enjoyable weekend. As I write this post I'm looking out the window to see more snow falling. We're expecting to get anywhere from 4 to 8 inches of snow by tomorrow evening. Spring is just around the corner ... right?
Well, I thought this image would bring visions of warmer weather lol! This little sweetie is Maxie With Snow Cone and I think she's such a cutie. She's one of Lori's newer releases and you can find her in the By LORi Designs digi shop. She's colored with copics and colored pencils and I added some Glamour Dust on the snowcone so that it sparkles like ice. A ribbon and a button are my only embellishments. While looking around Facebook earlier today I saw that the Sunday Showcase over on Designed to Color is ... one layer cards. Well, I almost NEVER make one layer cards so I thought I would give it a go. I have to say I kind of like the way it turned out :)
Thanks for stopping by and stay warm!

Hey Chickie
( ** Please scroll down for my Greeting Farm post ** )
Hello again friends. I have one more card to share with you today. I have used one of the newest stamps from the Bags of Fashion collection over at Funky Kits.
This beautiful girl is called Tabitha and she was such a dream to color! I love her long, wavy hair. I used my copics and colored pencils and some pretty papers from My Mind's Eye. I dyed some seam binding and a strip of muslin fabric with my distress ink refill. I gathered the muslin into a rosette shape and then added a WOC flower. A few pearls and corner dies finished my card.
Thank you so much for stopping by. I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
Hugs, Anita

I used this sweet CC Monday Morning on my card this week ... I just love that look on her face lol! I colored her with copics and colored pencils. I decided to make my easel card round so I used my nestabilities to cut the shapes. I added some ribbon, a birthday sentiment, and a butterfly with a pearl. Be sure to stop by the Greeting Farm Blog to see what the rest of the DT is sharing and you can get all the challenge details while you're there. I hope you find some time to play along this week :)

Love You Slow Much

This adorable image is Love You Slow Much. That's right ... Sylvia has delighted us with a new beautiful Peggy image! And this time Peggy has a sweet and huggable snail friend.

Hello friends. Today we're reviewing some of the fabulous March release stamps over on the All That Scraps Blog.
I used Drozy's Darlings Lily of the Valley for my card.

You're Beautiful
Good morning to all of you. Today I'm sharing a card that required no coloring. That's right ... no copics, no colored pencils, no distress inks!
As much as I love coloring, it's nice to be able to occasionally make a quick and easy card without coloring. This clean and simple card features one of the newer clear stamp/die sets from The Greeting Farm - Mini Flutters with Die Clear Stamps. I ink distressed all my papers and then added some WOC flowers and pearls to my butterflies. A bit of lace and some crinkled seam binding finished my card. I got the inspiration for this card from one that I saw a while back on pinterest. I thought I had pinned that card but now I can't find it on my boards. So if any one you know the orginal artist, please leave me a note and I'll link to her blog :)
Thank you for stopping by!

Inspiration Tuesday
( ** Please scroll down for my TGF and ATS posts ** )
Hello! Today is a busy day on my blog but this is the last post for today :) Since it's Tuesday, we're sharing some inspiration over on the By LORi Designs Blog.
I used this sweet little Puddle Jumper Maxie (Two) which can be found here. She's colored with copics and colored pencils. I wanted to color Maxie in some bright, fun colors so I thought this paper by Doodlebug Design would be perfect for her. I added a polka-dot bow with a button and then diecut the letters to add to my card. A very quick and easy card but I think it would be a perfect card to let someone know you're thinking of them! Be sure to visit the By LORi Designs Blog to see what the rest of the dt is sharing this week. I know their projects will bring a smile to your face!

I used this sweet little Puddle Jumper Maxie (Two) which can be found here. She's colored with copics and colored pencils. I wanted to color Maxie in some bright, fun colors so I thought this paper by Doodlebug Design would be perfect for her. I added a polka-dot bow with a button and then diecut the letters to add to my card. A very quick and easy card but I think it would be a perfect card to let someone know you're thinking of them! Be sure to visit the By LORi Designs Blog to see what the rest of the dt is sharing this week. I know their projects will bring a smile to your face!
Thanks for stopping by. I hope you have a wonderful day.

A Pot Of Gold
Good morning to all of you. Some of us are sharing some "anything but a card" projects over on the All That Scraps Blog.
So this is my interpretation of a leprechaun's pot of gold lol! I picked up this little bucket quite awhile back in the Target $ bin. I really wanted to fill it with gold foil-wrapped chocolate "coins" but I could not find those gold coins anywhere! It's like my local stores skipped right over the St Patty's Day candy and went straight to Easter candy :( Anyway, the cute leprechaun is from the Meoples Lucky Rainbow Rubber Stamps. He's colored with copics and colored pencils. I cut him out and matted him with my nestabilities and then tied the tag onto the bucket handle. Be sure to stop by the All That Scraps Blog to see what the rest of the DT is sharing today.

Celebrate Today
Good morning friends. I hope you're having a wonderful weekend. I have a Sugar Nellie card to share today.
This adorable fairy is called Pippi Longsocks and you can find her at Funky Kits. I think this fairy is just the sweetest, and don't you love her little froggy friend? She's colored with copics and colored pencils and has lots of Glamour Dust on her wings. Really, all fairies need sparkly wings, right? I've used some new Prima papers called Fairy Rhymes, which I just love. And I've been seeing my friend Vicky use the gorgeous heart dies on her card and I finally managed to find the die at my LSS ... yay! I also added a new branch die, punched flower, seam binding, and pearls.
Thanks so much for stopping by.

Hello again friends. If you're looking for my All That Scraps post, please scroll down. If you're looking for my Greeting Farm card then you're in the right place! Today starts a new Retro-Fresh Challenge over on The Greeting Farm Blog. Our lovely Rachel chose our theme this month and she's chosen "All About The Boys".
I used this cute little dude from Oliver and Amelia - My Favorite Thing. He's colored with copics and colored pencils and I paired him up with some new Echo Park paper that I just picked up at my LSS. The word tiles were cut from one of the new papers. I added some twine and a button to finish my card. Remember, in order to play along in our Retro-Fresh Challenge, you need to use a TGF stamp that is at least 6 months old. Be sure to drop by The Greeting Farm Blog to see what the rest of the DT created, and you can find all the challenge details listed there.

You Are Fabulous!
( ** Please scroll down for my Greeting Farm post ** )
Hello again! Today is Inspiration Tuesday over on the By LORi Designs Blog and I have a new card to share with you.
I used the adorable Lollipop Saylor 3 on my card ... isn't she a sweetie? I colored her with copics and colored pencils and then fussy cut her. I have been collecting washi tape for a while now. I pull it out and look at it and then stick it back in a drawer lol! I finally decided I needed to actually USE the tape. So, a few strips of washi and a few buttons and my card was done. Does it look naked to me? Yes ... but I do like the simple design! I think I may grow to like this washi tape. OK, be sure to stop by the By LORi Designs Blog to see what the rest of the sweet DT created.

Birthday Wishes
( ** Please scroll down for my Greeting Farm post ** )
Hello once again! Today is my turn to post over on the Sugar Nellie Blog and I'm using one of the older images from the Leanne Ellis Designs collection.
This little cutie is Talking to the Birds. It appears that this stamp is currently out of stock but there are lots of other adorable stamps from this collection available at Funky Kits. I colored the image with copics and colored pencils and then cut it out with my nestabilities. I added a little tag behind the image where I can write a special message to the birthday girl :) The flourish is a Cheery Lynn die and the flowers are a My Favorite Things Die-namic. I added a pink pearl to the center of each flower. My papers are from an older My Mind's Eye 6x6 pad.
Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a wonderful weekend!
