Unscripted Sketches #207

Quick post tonight - I LOVE the Sketch over at Unscripted Sketches this week and made a birthday card tonight with it - Very fun!!  Great Sketch to use up some of those scraps we all have...  I used a favorite image of mine from Mo Manning - love this girl with her birthday cake, she just makes me smile!!  I colored her up with my Copics and used some paper and ribbon scraps from my stash.

Baby Shower Time!!

Headed to a Baby Shower today for one of my nephew's and his wife.  So Excited!!  I saw this cute image over at Mo's Digital Pencil Shop and couldn't wait to color it up!!  The papers are from a fun new pack I recently found at Michael's - DOT Stack from DCWV.  Being a lover of all things Polka Dot, this 6x6 pad will be a favorite of mine!!

I grabbed the Sketch from this week's Challenge over at Deconstructed Sketch and got busy.

I purchased this cute little image from Mo's Digital Pencil.  Reminds me of my friend's grandson who LoVeS to blow bubbles!!  I used the sketch from Retro Sketches.  The papers are from my stash...  The clear buttons are from Close to My Heart tied with Baker's Twine.  The image is colored with Copics and fussy cut then mounted with Pop Dots. The sentiment Boy oh Boy is LoTV.

Happy Birthday Mahalia!!

One of my "Great" Nieces birthday's is coming up - Mahalia!!  She will be 6!!   Last night I made her a card using the sketch from Sweet Sketch Wednesday.  She has been dancing the last few years - and this year she had a beautiful bright pink tutu!!  So, I thought this image from Mo's Digital Pencil was perfect - after all, shat little dancing girl does not love cup cakes?!?!?  I am also entering this card in Mo's Anything Goes Challenge.

I used paper from My Mind's Eye Lost & Found - Madison Avenue.  The image is colored with Copics and fussy cut out.  I added some Stardust Glitz and pearls (Close to My Heart) and ribbon from my stash.  The sentiment is LoTV.

Happy Birthday Mahalia - I love you!!

Baseball Star's Birthday!!

Tonight I made a card for a boy who is a Baseball All-Star.  The sketch is from Sketch Saturday.  Really fun sketch to work with!!  The image is from Mo's Digital Pencil.  I colored him in with Copics and fussy cut him out.  The DP is Fanfare from Close to My Heart.  The stars are also CtMH colored with Sky ink and the ribbon is from my stash.

I'm entering this card in the following Challenges:

Wynken, Blynken and Nod...

When my kids were young I loved this song...  finding this image brought back sweet memories.  I was looking through the images at Mo's Digital Pencil Shop looking for one related to "travel" and I happened upon this sweet image.  Challenge #136 is World Traveler with a Mo's image.  I am using the Sketch from Sketch Saturday- just LoVe this sketch!!  Too late to enter in the Challenge, but the sketch fits the card.  I used the colors from the Challenge at CR84FN  (oops - too late...).  The papers and ribbons are from my stash.  The stars are Close to My Heart.  The image and stars are colored with Copics and the stars sparkle with Stardust also from CtMH. 

Thanks so much for stopping by!! 

Joy!!

What can bring more Joy on Mother's Day than Grandchildren??  Tonight's card is for a "Grandmother" friend of mine and based on the sketch over at the Sketch Saturday Challenge.  I used cute, bright papers from the Simon Says April Stamp Card Kit Sunnier Days.  I love the bright prints.  The image is from Mo Manning.  This pair of kiddos is just so adorable =)  I colored them with Copic markers, fussy cut them out and mounted them with Pop Dots.  I found some cute little paper flowers in my stash and used the sentiment Joy from a retired CtMH Christmas stamp set. 

Hope you are all having a wonder-filled Mother's Day Weekend!!

Happy Birthday!!

I'm entering this card into two challenges.  Mo's Digital Challenge #131  which is to use Flowers.  I'm using the Sketch from Card Patterns Sketch Challenge. 
The Base CS is Close ti My Heart Smokey Plum and the DP is from the Paper Pack Cruisin'.  The image is colored in with Copics and the ribbon and flowers are from my stash drawers =)  I think this image is soo cute - I wonder if the cake would make it to the table whole if the image came to life.

Life is Good!

Wanted to do a color challenge tonight and chose the first one I went to...  The Play Date Cafe.  The image I wanted to use was fairly large, so I needed a square sketch and went with my favorite Sweet Sketch Wednesday.   The image is a Mo Manning.   Mo's Digital Challenge this week is anything goes!!  So this card will go in the three Challenges.

The papers are s.e.i. Vanilla Sunshine 6 x 6 Pad.  The sentiment is Close to My Heart from the stamp set Tree Top.  The btads and button are also CtMH and the ribbons are from my stash.  The image "Maya" is colored in with Copic Markers.

Have a great week!!

I love, love, love Mo's Digital Images!!  I found a sketch I wanted to do over at Crazy 4 Challenges.    Mo's Digital Challenge had a Photo Inspiration Challenge this week.  So I put the two together to come up with this card.  I used the new paper pack Florentiine from Close to M Heart.  The image is colored in with Tombow markers.  And the card is finished off with a sheer ribbon tied in a bow.

Thanks so much for stopping by my Blog - wishing you all a great week ahead!!

Inspired By...

This weekend I am at a lovely old Inn in Rockport, MA near the ocean with my crafting supplies and fellow CtMH consultants.  There is a LOT of Paper Crafting going on!!  (I need to get this entry done, shower and get down to breakfast... I have been told the Scones are to die for...).  Last night I made this card based on the Blog The Inspired Challenges # 17 and used the sketch from {Freshly} Made Sketches.  I am an animal lover and was intrigued by the inspiration of this Zoo Animal Growth Chart (I LOVE the ZOO).  This image from Mo Manning seemed just perfect!!  I have had many dogs and cats who love to sleep together - so sweet!   The paper and sentiment are Close to My Heart.  The image is colored with Tombow markers.

As I finish up this post, the seagulls are calling me from outside my window - cool!! 

I think a walk to the ocean might be in order...

Thanks for stopping by!!

Mojo Monday (on Monday!!)

One can never have enough Birthday cards on hand...  although this one is being delivered tomorrow!!  I have been wanting to use this Mo  image and decided this was the card to do it!  The sketch at Mojo Monday was perfect!!  I am also entering this card in the Challenge over at Mo's Digital Pencil Blog.  The challenge there is to "Bling it on" a Mo image.  I thought it made perfect sense for Birthday Mouse Flossie to wear her best party dress with the blingy ribbon around her waste!!After all, she is on her way to a Party!! 










I used coordinating papers from Recollections.  The sentiment (inside it continues "a very happy birthday") is from the Verve set "Wishing You" stamped in Close to My Heart Black.  The bow and the bling are also CtMH.
