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

                                          This week the LOVE TO CREATE Challenge is 

READ ALL ABOUT IT!  So make a bookmark, a card with a bookmark or something to do with READING!!! 

I have made a bookmark using READING BEAR from one of our sponsors, QKR Stampede...isn't he cute??  I really don't like this bookmark, it is missing something! I've been in a bit of a "mood" this past week, and I don't think my heart was into it.... I'm a little embarrassed to post it actually, so I hope you will forgive me!!!

Thanks for stopping by!!!

Incy Wincy Designs Challenge - Photo inspiration!!

                           Good morning!!!!  Happy RAINY Monday!!! 

This week the Incy Wincy Design team has a GREAT challenge for you.....
A PHOTO for INSPIRATION!!!!  
Here it is...gorgeous eh???

 

 

 I took my inspiration from the mountains and used this cute AKV Mountain climber for my card.  I thought this would make a great Graduation card for a boy!  Different, at least!!!  I have coloured him with Copics and chalked the sky.  It is a center step card so I stamped CONGRATS on the sides.

Hellooooo everyone!!  Happy Thursday!!!!  I am looking forward to a weekend get away with my Mother in Law to her cabin.....should be relaxing!! Can't wait!!!! 

This week, our Dare to be Sassy Theme is to celebrate the GRADUATE!!!! 

I have used Chelsea Graduation and made a twisted easel card to resemble a grad hat.  I hand made the tassel with embroidery thread & attached it......but it wasn't easy taking a picture of this card! LOL  OY!!!!!  So here are several so you get the jist of it!!! The grid paper DP is from a pack from DCWV called Grade School.  I have coloured her with Copics and pop dotted her up on the hat.  I hand rolled the diploma and attached some matching thread to it.
