February card club

Hello! This month our card club started doing something a little different - instead of giving an image to everyone to use we have decided to do a theme instead. This months theme was Birthday. We could create a card using any image as long as it was a Birthday card. I wanted to do something out of the ordinary for me so I decided to do something simple with not as many layers. I also wanted to use calming colors, so I found this color combo on a blog I frequent & thought it was perfect for what I had in mind. I also got to play with my new Quickutz embossing folder (when I say "new" I have had it for a few months LOL.) I am not sure if you can tell by the picture or not but I used stickles on the flowers to add some detail (zoom in for a better view). The dp going through the middle is actually a digi paper I got free off a blog, love it! Thanks for stopping by, and hope you are staying warm! :)

I am back with a challenge!

I finally made it into my room to do some creating. I played along w/ Taylored Expressions 100th Sketch celebration. This is for TESC100, you can find the details on Taylor's blog HERE The image I used is by Karen Lockhart and the paper is a new paper pad I got by My Mind's Eye - lots of sparkles, I love it! I had a 3 hour glucose blood test so I took some images to color. I never usually color my images until I have my layout & papers picked out, then I color it to match so this was a challenge for me! LOL I do love how it turned out though. What do you think? :)

I have been busy!

Sorry for my lack of posting last week, I have been moving my closets around & re-organizing them & I also moved my scrap room to prepare for our baby due May 3rd. I finally finished the closets & my scrap room today! YEAH! Now, my husband just has to clear the furniture out of the room & then we can decorate! I am so tired, & hope to escape to my room tomorrow to create something. Hope you are all warm & not snowed in! We have about a foot of snow here!
