ABC Christmas Challenge - P is for..............

Hi everyone! Here is my card for the ABC Christmas challenge  this time. You have 2 weeks to enter this challenge so I hope you join us!!  Here is my P card - P is for purple (it really is purple....lavender and dark purple...I PROMISE!!!), polar bear and pearls!! The lighting in my house is wonky again - probably because its been rainy and cloudy - I can't seem to get a good picture!! SORRY!!!!  This image is from Angel's Landing - one of the first digi images I ever purchased!  I used the snowflake folder with my Cuttlebug, some pearls, silver ribbon and silver ink with the sentiment...it really does look lovely in person!!!  

Our sponsors this week is  STAMP AND CREATE and LILY OF THE VALLEY!!!!  
So join us if you want to win some GREAT prizes!!!!

Thanks for popping by....be sure to check out the challenge & join us this week!!!
Hugs,

Chris

Summertime Challenge entry

Good morning!!!! I made this card for a friend and decided to enter it into a few challenges (see below). 
I have used Surfs Up from The Stamping Chef.  I have coloured her with Copics and chalked the clouds and water.  The "sand" is brown flock and the mini sea shells are real (got them at Michaels!!)  The sentiment is from Changito....but it is one of my favourite to use for summer birthdays!!!  AND it fit nicely with this image!!!

 Here are the challenges that I am entering this card into:
Sweet Stampin Challenge - by the Sea
2 Sisters - Anything goes
Crafty Calendar - Anything Goes
Drunken Stampers - Athlete/sport inspired (SURFING)
Sugar Creek Hollow - Water, Water, Everywhere
Word Play Saturday - Birthdays


THANKS for stopping by! Have a great week!

Love to Create - SKETCH time!!

a SKETCH!!!!

This week we have 2 sponsors - Stamped Art by Kathryn (I have used Lizzy for my first card) and Dr. Digis House of Stamps (I have used Made for each other for my second card)

Challenge entry...finally time to play!!!

I made this card for a good friend and colleague that was leaving us at the end of the school year. She is moving to Singapore for 2 years to teach! I will miss her greatly, she was so positive and upbeat and she really made me stop and think before I said something negative! This is for you Linds!!! 

I am entering it into the Saturated Canary Challenge blog - Set your creativity free (aka Anything Goes!) challenge, 2 Sisters (Anything Goes), Colour me Creative challenge (Pretty in Pink), and Crafty Calendar (Anything Goes).

I have used PACK LIGHT from Saturated Canary and have coloured her with Copics.  The sentiment is computer generated and the flowers are from my stash.  The white ones are from the wedding section at Michaels.  

Thanks for stopping by! HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!
Hugs,
Chris

Sassy Studio Designs - 80s to the Max joint BLOG HOP with Corrosive Challenge!!!

The theme is 80's of course BUT it will be  "It's Only A Number" Birthday theme as well. You must make a b-day project and have a number or numbers on it!  


                     Here's what you could win...WOW!!!!

- There will be a winner from each blog from a random comment.

- There will be a challenge listed on the Corrosive blog..every entry will get a freebie  and the winner will win a prize of all the images!!!


Here is my creation using SMURFETTE!!!  I loved the Smurfs growing up - I remember my friend and I had a rivalry going on who had the MOST smurfs!! I think I won!  AND funny thing is, I still have some of them!  I kept a few and gave some to my nieces and nephews when we were cleaning and selling my Mom & Dad's house! 

I have coloured her with Copics (I think she needs blue lips...what do you think??)  and added some glitter glue to the mushrooms (Still wet - sorry!!).  The mushrooms are from Dustin Pike, and the mushroom paper is from a store on Etsy (digi paper).  The sentiment is computer generated.  The charm and ribbon are from my stash & thought it fit in nicely with the mushroom theme!!!

LOVE all of these new releases, I am SUCH an 80s girl!!!!  LOL  The music is awesome, the clothes...well, not so much, but back then....they were smokin'!!!! LOL
