Challenge entry.....

I have had to make several baby cards in the last couple weeks, so thought I would enter this one into a couple challenges.

Ooh La La Creations' challenge is BABY, BABY!

I am also entering this into Crafty Creations challenge, which is BABY also.  

Stampavie and More challenge is Something with Wings. 

I have used BARRY ANGEL from The Stamp Fairy & coloured him with Copics.  I added 3D Glittering Crystal paint to the cloud and Stickles to his wings.  The CS is Brilliant Blue (SU) and the DP is from DCWV - Nana's Kids.  The sentiment is from an old SU set that fits my scallop circle punch. 

It's Thursday, and that means I have only 6 days of teaching left until Summer vacation! I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!   I SO need this break!!!!!

Hugs,
Chris

Doodle Dragon challenge entry

Hey everyone!!! I had a little time tonight to play in the Doodle Dragon Challenge this week! It is ALL TIED UP!!!  I wanted a simple Birthday card for a guy so I chose Dudley in his canoe!  The paper is from SPLASH - Echo Park.  I coloured Dudley with chalks and Copics- I wish you could see the shimmer in the water and the sky!  I finished it off with a piece of twine - more manly than ribbon I think!!!! 

Have a great night!
Chris

Sad day for me...

Hi everyone!  For the past 3 years, EVERY Wednesday I have had a Simon Says.... post!  Today is the first Wednesday that I am no longer on the DT and I am sadder than I ever thought I would be.  Simon has become a family to me and I will miss the DT terribly!!! 

I started buying from Simon Says Stamp when they were just a small ebay store - about 8 or 9 years ago I think!  It IS my one and only shop!!!  Heidi & I became fast friends and I felt part of the family.  I am fortunate to have been able to be part of the team for 3 years, and I know change is a good thing, but never easy!  It has been a lot of fun, I have learned a LOT and have challenged myself with things I may have never tried! So for that, I say THANKS!

I wish all the new girlies well...enjoy your time on the team, it is the best team in blogland! 

Hugs,
Chris

Love to Create - Colours of Summer

Good morning everyone!!! Happy Monday!!!!! 

This week the LOVE TO CREATE Challenge is COLOURS OF SUMMER!!!! 

This week we have TWO SPONSORS, so that means TWO chances to win!!!! We are sponsored by Robyn's Fetish and Digi Darla.   So............. come join us!!!

Here is my card for the week!

I have used Watermelon Penguin from Digi Darla.  Cute eh?? I have a crazy penguin obsession going on lately...actually, its been for MANY years (As a little kid, I used to call my oldest brother "Ricky Ricky Penguin") but since the Calgary Zoo brought in the penguin exhibit, its been a bit of an obsession! LOL  I saw LITTLE BLUE PENGUINS in the wild when I was in Australia last summer & that started up my childhood obsession again! I also do a penguin unit with my students so I get a good dose of penguins each year!!! I have been to the Zoo twice and took about 300 pictures of them.....hahha.... I know, I'm crazy!!!!

Head on over to the challenge blog to check it out!!! HOPE to see you joining us!!!!!
