Strange things

Well today is a gorgeous day!  And my hubby installed the dishwasher and it seems to work... crisis averted... but need to see the doctor and he doesn't seem to be available... that just sucks so don't know what I will do next week.... One day at a time right?!? I decided to make something different to share with you coloring wise... I saw that the challenge over at Dilly Beans is back and I was soooo excited because that's one challenge that I totally looooove I just adore those images!  This time around their challenge was Black and White.... so I did some coloring using just my charcoals and pencils! The image that I used is the fab 569 Milla Framed .

Tip Top Tuesday - CAS

Image
It's time for a new challenge over at  Top Tip Tuesday  this time around it's CAS.  And for this challenge the sponsor is   I have a little Tip to share with you before I get to my make. Tip:When making lots of items of similar nature do them all in advance and at the same time it makes assembling it a lot easier afterwards. You also have all the tools out.  In this case, for the calendar I wrote it down on a piece of paper to organize the images that I needed for all the month depending on the holidays going on :) Here it's the month of May so for Mother's day in Canada. The image that I used is from Dilly Bean - it's called 183 Framed Flower girl.

For this challenge we have these awesome sponsors: , , , For this card I used a great digi from  Dilly Beans  called 276 - Disturbed snowman.  It's part of a great discontinued bundle.

Let it snow

I'm back and this time around it's with a card to play in the great Dilly Beans challenge!!!!  I try not to miss it :)  So this tie when I had some left over papers from die cuts that I had done it gave me the idea to use it for this challenge! It happens to be die cuts :)  So the image that I used is the great  517 let it snow snowmen framed . I really like how this card turned out with scraps!!!! :)  And less in my scrap pile.

Thank you

I needed a little thank you card!  And I really wasn't too sure what I would do for it... someone from work sent me a great letter with a coupon for a sale that I love even if I'm not at work!!!!  It touched me soooooo much that she would take the time to do that even if I wasn't there!  And that they were still thinking of me! So yeah... back to what to make... and then I saw the latest challenge of Dilly Beans which was  Thankful  and since I love participating in that challenge I thought it was perfect. So here's my card very minimalist.

OH so it's Sunday!!!  And that's good because I'm still feeling like crap..... man will this cold please go away?!? As my followers know I love playing with  Dilly Beans  and this time around the challenge was one that I couldn't resists... it was Feathers or Fins.  As you know I love to make owl cards they are just perfect to send to my dad as a little thinking of you.  So I try to have some in advance.  And this is one of those occasions. I used the fabulous 421 Hooter Framed to make my card.

Hello!  Have I intrigued you with this title?!  If I did it was done on purpose.  As you know I really adore playing along at  Dilly beans challenge  and this time around the challenge is about you! So because I was the winner last time I got to pick some great digis and I pick this one especially to play in this challenge!  I figured that when you reveal stuff about yourself it's like lifting a mask right?!?  Yup I was in one of those very thoughtful mood rofl :) So here's my make with her.  I know that I have shared 2 green cards back to back... but I've been in a really really pink mood recently (you don't know yet because you haven't seen the DT cards... but trust me I have).  So this make just had to go with some pinks! Ok and why is it revealing a lot about me?!?  well the sentiment says it all I'm not too flexible... lol  When I organize stuff I really really want it to go the way that I planned it... when it doesn't I don't like it (nice wa

Bumble bee girl

Image
Told you I would be back!  And this time it's for another cutie from  Dilly Bean .  The no DP challenge was too hard to resist since I have hardly any supplies while camping... it was just the perfect challenge for me... and let me have fun coloring! So this time I used the very cute 197 Framed bumble bee girlie and I went with a bumblebee theme!  Could have also been a wasp theme... my daughter was stung by one while I was coloring yesterday... :(  She's ok... but they are really annoying.. we don't  have a lot here on the campground but just enough I guess...

My last for this night!  I didn't play last forthnight over at  Dilly beans challenge .  I had meant to... but then didn't because it was my camping trip and I was super busy trying to get everything organized... and it took me all week just to get my bearings here.... Don't know about you but I get totally screwed up on vacation time... I forget which day is which... and just doing everything seems to take muuuuuuch longer. Anyway... that's not why you are here!  You are here because this time I did decide to participate!  I mean come on... such an easy one... it's one about no DP and that's just perfect for me because I don't have a lot of supplies here...  So I had great fun coloring this image this morning and then just choosing out of the cardstock that I brought what could be used for this! So for this I decided to make a Christmas card with one of the great images from Dilly Bean.   Totally adore those images!  And soooo happy I have another Chris

So... how was your Monday?!?  Mine was spent running around at work... Man...The day passed relatively fast but at the same time I felt really really blah... can't really figure out why.  Maybe just because it's Monday? Anyway I ended up the day coloring a fabulous image that you will be seeing on my blog on Friday.  In the meantime I'm here to share with you a card that I made with a great digi from  Dilly Beans  I soooo love those and I have given myself the challenge to play more with the ones that I have. So here's my card perfect for my dad who love owl!!!  So I'll be sending this over to him.  Just in time for Father's day :)  The digi is  540-owl-always-love-you I made it quite masculine I think with all the added texture!

OK I have to admit it I'm in looooove with the digis over at  Dilly Bean Stamps !!!  And last challenge I had the extreme luck to win some new digis!!!  WOW that's such a blessing because I WANT THEM ALL!!! But of course I can't afford to buy them all... so... to win some is a pretty awesome thing! One of the digis that I asked for after much debate because they are all yummy is 453- Daisy girl framed .  So I just HAD to play in the newest challenge which is celebration and use her.  I have to admit she was a dream to color.
