Fast little post with Doodle Pantry

Image
Hello!  It's already Friday.... picture sad face here.... it means our vacation is coming to an end.... But it's been great and it was fun being with the family without the stress of the regular life and housework and all.... Anyway I'm here to share with you some ATCs that I made with some Doodle Pantry image as well as another before the progressive challenge is over.... wow July sure passed quickly!!! The 1st is a series of 3 ATCs were I used the following sets from Doodle Pantry Chubby Chickadee Monkey Barrel Quirky Frog I used all precolored images but the background of the ATC are all handmade using either oil pastels or alcool ink. For the other ATC I used the great image for the progressive challenge over at  Deedee progressive challenge .  I used the precolored image and just fussy cut him.  I added some Jillibean soup stickers. That's it for me!  Have a great Friday. Hugs

Quick little shares for progressive challenges

Hello everyone!  I'm camping and we have had an amazing time here.  This week as been especially awesome weather!!!!  I don't want it to end..... I know that I'm still vulnerable... I get tired easy but with camping the beat is so much slower that it doesn't show as much! I wanted to share with you 2 makes before the progressive challenges come to an end and I will be late.... I did both... but yeah having trouble blogging.... just seem to be doing nothing but sitting in the sun and watching my kids play!  It's been awhile since I have done just that without feeling guilty! My 1st make for you is for the Outlawz progressive challenge and it's an image from Blueberry bear.  I thought it would be totally perfect for my junk journal that I made for a friend of mine. I just think this image is soooo cute!  And I used my copics to color it up.  I used some of my cards from project life and some sentiment from simple stories.  I also added some text book on the

Here's my make with this super cute image colored with my copics.  The sentiment is from  Create with TLC I think she was just the perfect embellishment for my book!

Hello everyone!  I'm still camping and enjoying every minutes of it.  Erin came for a visit this weekend and it was fun to craft with someone! But I'm here to share my makes for  My whimsical little world  and right now we are using goodies that have been release previously but were just PERFECT for my camping book!  Don't forget to check out the blog for the freebies and the FB group for the progressive challenge. For my makes this week I'm sharing 2 one using  Marigold she was used on one of the 1st pages of my camping journal.  I colored her up with my copics. And the 2nd one that I used is  Pheobe .  She was also colored with copics but I did the background with my chalks.  The sentiment is from the set as well. Since I'm on vacation I'm not entering challenges.  But I still love to read your comments. Hugs

Doodle pantry - Everyday Jargon

Image
Hello!  here it's windy at the campground but at least it seems sunny.... we've been getting rain on an off throughout the week.... that sucks but there's enough wind to dry everything fast and we do have some sunny time to enjoy doing activities! Enough about me I'm here to share with you another little page from my junk journal.  This one was part of a lunch bag that was the center of the album. I used this cute set Everyday Jargon I think it was pretty awesome for this little page: I used some distress ink in twisted lemon around the image (it had a little sentiment included on it) and I added another sentiment from  Create with TLC .  The background was done with some oil pastel and smooched with my fingers.  And I added some Kaiser Craft rubbons.  I usually hate hate hate rubbons but those worked very well! On the right hand side the sentiment and tag come from Simple stories paper as well as from project life kit.  The background on that page is do

SLS Lines - New release

Image
Hello everyone!  It's time for a new release over at  SLS Lines  .  Got to love those fab images! For my make I used the fabulous  Quiet sitting fairy .  I used her in my total junk journal that I made for a friend.  I thought she would be the perfect image for the message that I wanted to send her. I used a Unity stamp with her. The left hand page is done with some gelli printing over a leaflet from the real estate agent.  I used some left over papers that I inked with my black memento ink.  I used my pearl effect die from Spellbinder.  The background to the fairy was done with my gelatos. Here's a closer look at the digi colored with my copics. I'm not entering this in any challenges because I'm on vacation :)  So that's my little vacation but I still wanted to share with you the great image. Have a great Wednesday. Hugs

Hello everyone! I'm on vacation right now all relaxed :)  So I have plenty of time to share stuff with you guys!  I'm doing the post for  Airless chambers I'm sharing a not that dark make this time around.... but I still think dark enough for this blog.  I'm using 2 super digis for this   Signs 1   and the adorable little  EEK    and with those 2 I made a little scene that I thought would be fun.  I'm quite pleased with how it turned out! The background was made using a stamp of mountains that I used a few times and another stamp of a tree with lots of branches in Walnut distress ink.  Then the coloring of the background was completed using some pan pastels. I used prima chalk ink on the clouds. The little EEK was colored with copics and fussy cut.  I did the parachute lines after with a fine pen.  You just have to LOVE his face!!!! And here's the closer look at the sign that I did for the opposite journal page. I'm really loving how

Ohhhhhh it's hot hot hot over at the new  sexy challenge .  And what better way to share with you how hot it is but with this fabulous image  I'm so fancy I made again a journal page but this time around my background was made using a napkin which is something new to me. The digi was colored with my copics and I found a sentiment that I thought would be perfect for this.  It's if you can't be a poet be the poem.  I think that she totally would be the poem to many!!!!  I'm entering this little journal page in the following challenges: Sugar and betty  - Anything goes Ikes world challenge  - Anything but square Cardz 4 guyz  - No designer paper - I used a napkin that I tore and decoupage on... so it's not a designer paper :) That's it for me for now but I will be back with more!

I'm not feeling all that good and trying to put a brave front and do everything but it's being hard. And I'm pushing myself to hard and failing miserably.  So when I saw all the great new images from Oddball I just knew that it would make for some great therapy journaling!  And this time around I'm not sharing all I wrote.... some is not good for blogging.... You will be able to find all the fab digis here This 1st one is image 239 and was used in a junk album that I'm making with just recycled material.  The great sentiments are from  Create with TLC  as well as with the set.  I will be doing a video about this album and sharing in more details then.  The background here is done with my gelli plate and some acrylic paints and stencils.  The tag is from a pair of short jeans from my daughter :) The next one is image 241b and I made it with my
