 Here is my Project for the hop I was given the "Life Is A Picnic" set which can be found here:

I created an invitation to a picnic !

I colored the images with my Bic Mark-it markers and fussy cut them. The red checked paper is from a digital pack called Little Piggy from Lettering Delights.The sentiment word bubble was written and cut with my Cricut explore. Here is the inside 

I have a second project for you using the new stamp set "Spring Is Blooming" which can be found here



For this project I created a plant decoration 

I colored her with my Bic Mar-It markers and for the face I used my new set of Spectrum Noir Pale Hues Markers for her face and hands. I fussy cut everything out  created an oval scalloped mat in a lite blue  and a white oval mat with my cricut I ran the white one through my Cuttlebug using the Cape Cod Cricut folder. Love the lattice effect. My African Violet was being very cooperative blooming beautifully. 
For my final project I used the "Creepy Crawler 2" set which can be found here



For this project I created a set of tiny note cards they measure 3.5 x2.75







 Colored the little "bugs" with Bic Mark-It markers and fussy cut each one out I will be so glad when I master the print and cut feature on my cricut explore LOL. I added some stamping around the sentiment which were written and cut with my Cricut Explore. The cards were designed using Cricut Design Space .

Happy St Patricks Day!!!

Top of the Morning to you!! My dear Irish Grandma was fond of saying that on St Patrick's  Day.
I was compelled by my Irish roots to create this little card and I used this adorable stamp from "Sunsational Stamps" called Patty which can be found here!


I colored her with my Bic Mark-Its pens and with the pale hues "Spectrum Noir" pens that I recently purchased to try out The LUCK was stamped with a dollar stamps from Micheal's as was the sentiment. Lots of paper and card stock from my stash. I was going to put glass effects on her eyes but forgot I think it would have added a nice twinkle to he lovely green eyes.

Thanks for stopping by, all comments are greatly appreciated.

First Easter Card


  I had this adorable stamp image from Sunsational stamps "Betty Bunny" which can be found here.
  I decided to color her up using Bic Mark-it pens I added some sparkle to her floppy ears with silver glitter from Martha Stewart and Glass effects to her eyes to make them shine. The card measures 4 x 5.5. The yellow pattern paper is from Colorbok "Carnival" 6 x 6 pad, the green solid is Recollections card stock, and the ribbon is from the Dollar Tree. I punched the little flowers with a Creative Memories punch and added some Bling from Martha Stewart. The Happy Easter is from a CTMH stamp set D1629  "Just to say".


Isn't she just the cutest .
Thanks for stopping by and hope you will leave a comment I love to read them!!
