broke out the markers and had a good time!!

I had a friend come to the loft Saturday (hi, Valerie) we played with stamps and made a tag, after she left I continued to play. I got out the markers and this is what happened:

This morning I was pleased when I saw the tag. (love when that happens!!) Started diggin into the ribbon and embellishments to see what was available to enhance my tag, and this was the result.


Sometimes good things happen when you let go and play! ♥

Feb. 2010 TWS mini

Another Layout....

This was a stretch.
My .ning, blog, & you tube friend Tiffany (you can find her here: http://stampingattiffanys.blogspot.com/ ) sent me some beautiful butterflies this year. As pretty and delicate as they were, the colors didn't work for this layout. So, I attempted to make "my own".... all I can say is Tiffany's are much prettier... lol
Oh, and by the way, those little buggers are a lot of work.
Anywho, this is my attempt at handmade butterflies... be nice! Have a great day.

Challenge #5 OMiGod!! It's a scrunchie!!

This is a bookmark that I made using the crumple technique, with the distress inks when you get them wet with the glimmer mist it's not very defined. It's was very wrinkled before I sent it for a glimmer swim... lol

March @ the Beach - Challenge #2

Squeeze into your Acid Wash Jeans---good thing she didn't mean for real (LMAO)

It was a stamp with bleach challenge...
I decided to make a St. Pat's Card, and besides clovers, Irish to me, is Paisley (maybe its the golf thing...can't explain it!). This will be an easy card to stick in the mail tomorrow for the FIL.

March @ the Beach - Challenge #1

Rainbow Brite (& Big Tex, too)




This is my entry for the March beach Challenge #1, the challenge was to use the color spectrum of the rainbow, it didn't say we had to use colored paper so I played with my watercolor pencils. Then to add a little "bright" I added some distressed stickles. We had a choice of neutrals with guidelines and I chose the cream/kraft/brown combo.

Thanks Kathryn this was fun! (But, I have determined it's virtually impossible for me to crop and chat at the same time!!)

Thanks for stopping by, I'm off to work on #2!
