Happy Monday to all of you. I hope you had a fun weekend. If you celebrated Father's Day, I hope the men in your lives had a wonderful day. My hubby got lots of attention, love, gifts, and a yummy meal of his favorite foods. And since my sweet daughter did all the work, I got to sit back and relax - yay!
I wanted to make my grandson a card for the 4th of July and thought Lollipop Firecracker Finn would be perfect. I colored him with copics and added some Glamour Dust to the firecracker "flame" for some sparkle. You can find all of Lori's adorable images over in her By LORi Designs shop.
Thank you so much for stopping by.
Hugs, Anita

Good morning to all of you! SugarPea Designs is sponsoring the challenge over on the Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge Blog this week so I thought I'd make a card and join in the fun!
I used Love You Bunches. I thought this sweetie would be perfect for this challenge. I colored her with copics and used some Graphic 45 paper. I have to say that I hate trying to photograph purple ... it never turns out quite right for me. I promise that her blouse actually matches the purple in the dp, even though this photo doesn't show it :) Anyway, I added some banners and a diecut flower with a pearl.
Here's the inspiration photo over at Curtain Call. Be sure to stop by and check out their challenge details!
Thank you for stopping by. I hope you have a wonderful day.
Hugs, Anita

Good evening everyone! I just wanted to pop on quickly to post a card I made for a friend who's been feeling a little under the weather.
This cute little bear is Healing Bear from Whimsie Doodles. Isn't he adorable with his stuffing popping out? Obviously he's a well-loved bear, right? I colored him with copics and colored pencils and used Glossy Accents on his button eyes. I used some cotton for the stuffing and added a few buttons. Be sure to check out the digi image in the shop because he comes with two sentiments and some cute Band-Aid digis too.
Thank you so much for stopping by. Have a wonderful weekend!
Hugs, Anita

Good morning everyone! Jo Davies recently released some new digi stamps over in her Etsy shop and I made a card using one of them.
This lovely image is Banner Girl. I colored her with copics and added some shading with a Prismacolor pencil. I was really struggling with this image because orange isn't a color I use very often. I love it ... I just can't seem to color with it lol! I added some ribbon, a bow, and a few gumdrops from Your Next Stamp. If you purchase this digi image, you actually get two images. The one you see here with HB2U on the banner, and one image with no letters on the banner.
Thank you so much for stopping by!

Hello again! Today I'm sharing a card using one of the cute images from the By LORi Designs shop.
This little sweetie is Puddle Jumper Ella's Umbrella ... isn't she a cutie? I colored her with copics and then cut her out using a circle die. The fun papers are by Doodlebug and I just love the bright, cheery colors in this collection. I followed the sketch from The Challenge #8 over on Lesley Croghan's blog. I love this layout and I'm sure I'll be using it again! Be sure to check out the By LORi Designs Blog each day to see what the DT is sharing.
Thank you so much for stopping by. I hope you have a wonderful day!
