A little Lady ..... Saturated Canary New Challenge

Hello fellow peeps :)

I know I'm late sharing my card today but I've been so busy at home with a house full of sick children and the hubby is even worst than them (btw he's in the hospital forgot to mention he couldn't take the chest pains anymore and he had shortness of breath).

 I've been on call 24/7 from rubbing the Vapor rub and changing cold cloths, night round of meds and all the other good stuff. I am beyond tired and haven't had a good night sleep in days. It all started two weeks ago when my son(9yo) was the only one sick and then two weeks after Orlando started getting better. Lauren (7yo) fell into a high fever and it spiral down from there. One after the next everybody got sick. For some reason I've been the only one who hasn't  been hit BUT I recently started wheezing and a chest pain here and there. I'm hoping it's not a cough trying to brake through :(

So that's why I'm running behind on my post but I'm here now with a few minutes to spare and wish me luck so I don't get sick PLEASE!!! LOL!

Ok let's carry on to my card posting :)

It's time for another Saturated Canary challenge and the theme this time is 

" Emerald"

I am showcasing The Seasons, SpringtimeII available at Saturated Canary online shop. 

 I knew I wanted to give this New digi an emerald colored dress when I  spotted her. The dress is detailed so nicely and enhancing those existing pleats was a nice practice. Oh  and oh yes all colored with Spectrum Noir Markers. Also the image was blown up to @ 5 x 3 1/2 inches and matted on a card front. So it's quite big for what I regularly do. 

I also used one of the new sentiments from Little Darlings Fairytale sentiments

A little Lady.......  

the hanging tag is from Little Darlings as well from the Tag Along set

you could use this picture for Inspiration if you like and I can't wait to see what you create 

Ok that's it for me and I'm hoping tomorrow will be a peaceful day. I'm waiting for the my husband to get home and hopefully is just a matter of more rest and nothing serious. 

Thanks guys for stopping by my corner and I think It's time I do something to this blog yikes lacking color lol! I need a makeover ASAP :)

MOMS, AUNTS, GRANDMAS and Fathers that do the mom roll too

HAVE A BEAUTIFUL Mother's Day!!!! ((hugs))

The basket was inspired by Denas Easter basket tutorial but without the tulle.

Happy Princess Tilda

Hello peeps, I'm sorry for being a bit quiet but I'm currently working on CHA creations for this June and they need to get done ASAP.  I know it's seems I have time but you know hoe time creeps up on you.

 I'm also running around mad with the family. My family is always out and about specially as the summer fast approaches. We have baseball, soccer, softball and then my little girls tell me the other day they want to be part of some kind of team this summer. They told me they want to play soccer if not gymnastics. Ay ya ya I guess I better start looking. My husband and I are all about keeping the kids active and if we could get them away from their gadgets at home then we're in :)

.................... someone needs to find me a team too then because I have a problem with staying away from my puter and then who in the world invented pinterest??? GEEEZ SO ADDICTING LOL!

ANYWAYS LOL!

back to today's share, another Magnolia card for the new challenge over

 Magnolia-licious and Wee stamps blog. 

The theme this time is "Vellum" so any way you could use vellum will work. 

I decide to use vellum on my Doohickey Die Rose pedal and a Dollie die.

I used Happy Princess Tilda from New Once upon a time 2013 collection was colored with Distress Inks.

these sentiments are from MIC in rubber stamped on vellum sheet.

I hope you like my card and get ya playing with us.

I'm Always here for you Friend

Hello lovelies I'm back and here I am sharing another creation for the new challenge over 

Saturated Canary and this time we are going with "All things bright and beautiful..."

with the *optional* color scheme shown below!

I really was a softy for the palette. I couldn't wait to get coloring and as soon as I saw this little lady I thought her hair is a MUST to color :)

Using this picture as Inspiration is how I approached the coloring on Zorona in which I used 

 Spectrum Noir markers.

uhh I am obsessed with the LD Friendship sentiment line.I tend to reach for them for every card I'm working on now :)

the inside easy and simple

That's all for me and I'll be back with a Magnolia card very soon. Please stop by the challenge blog the team has done a wonderful job with the theme.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the weekend :)

Friends are Sisters we Choose

 Morning guys I'm back to share some Inspiration for the Little Darlings blog.

If you are here for the Make IT CRAFTY hop just scroll down to the previous post or click HERE

Today I'm showcasing Saturated Queenie and Princess.  This duo comes together when you buy them in rubber. I think you could use this image in many ways. 

I used it as a friends card but how about sisters or mommy and daughter :) I'm sure there are many other ways to use them.

The image is water colored with Distress Inks. I had lots of bling going through out the card and the sentiment I used is from the latest LD Warm Fuzzies Friendship sentiment line,

 The LD sentiment was stamped on a Magnolia Banner rubber stamp and then I colored it with my SN markers :)

Uummmm BLING :)

I hope you like my card and 

have a great safe weekend
