Scribbles Challenge-Masculine

It's time for another challenge over at Scribbles Challenge and our theme is Manly Men, Masculine, and Dads. 

Our sponsor is Bugaboo and I've paired up their astronaut image with a Scribbles sentiment.  Colored with copics, used a couple different star punches and scrap cardstock to put this together.  I love that Sandy had the perfect sentiment to go with this cutie little astronaut!!!

Head over to Scribbles to join our challenge and check out the other DT projects, they are all so talented!!

Friday Favorites #4


Favorite Disney character.....  this little guy.  I just LOVE him, he's so cute and funny. Plus, he's blue!!   I love his crazy little personality, his gravely voice and his need to just want to belong and have a family.   Hands down he is my favorite little character.  Next week on Friday Favorites I will share my favorite Disney Princess!












There is a little bit of Stitch love.....I have 5-6 Stitch collectables, picture frame, stuffed Stitches and a Stitch figurine.  Just love the little guy!! :)

Happy Birthday

I made this card using my first Kenny K image...I knew I wanted a baseball player for my daughter's boyfriends b-day card, and since he is a pitcher, this was PERFECT!!!  I used copics and kept the design really simple.  I hope he likes it....Ash says it looks a lot like him..blond hair and everything!! ;)

Just Keep Swimming..

Here is a card I made for a few challenges.  I just totally LOVE this Mermaid Mae from Some Odd Girl.  She is adorable and so fun to color. I'm not sure she is still available, I couldn't find her in the store, I had won some SOG images awhile ago and picked this one.  My Ashlie LOVES mermaids.  The Little Mermaid is still one of her favorite movies ...EVER!  So any chance to use a mermaid...I do!

I used copics to color her, glossy accents on the shell and bubbles. Enamel accents for her necklace, some sequins, embossed green paper, border punch for the purple border and white galaxy marker for the stitching.  the fish stickers were some that I've had for awhile. 

I am entering this into the SOME ODD GIRL June sketch challenge using this sketch

sketch4

Also the SOG hair raising challenge which is to color an image with long hair, funky colors or both.


{PIN}spirational challenge based on this picture





Ok...back to more cards.  I swear sometimes it takes me days to put a card together.  It really shouldn't take that long.  I don't know if I'm just super slow, or too indecisive....hmmm!  :/

Friends-

I made this card for Round 2 of Odd Idol over at Some Odd Girl.  The theme was friendship and I kinda took inspiration from my daughter and her friends.  :) 

  I really love how it turned out and it did get the most votes for that round....too bad it wasn't the final round, cuz then I would have won!  :D   ;)

I did make it to the top 15 though  which was super cool.  I haven't entered any contest this big..EVER.  And something like this, I normally don't even try, so at least I did something that was a little outside my comfort zone.  Yay me!!



I used 60's Mod Mae, Heartsy Mae, and Happy Gwen  all from Some Odd Girl, colored them with copics, used some papers from an older kit..(can't remember line) and the filmstrip SVG was from
 Miss Kate Cuttables, you should check out her site for SVG's, she has so many cute ones and a new freebie everyday!!

 Anyway, just thought I would share

Sunshine Mail Challenge -SMILE

Here is my card for the challenge over at Sunshine Mail.  Just Some Lines is  the sponsors for this challenge and I got to use this darling image.  Check out Just Some Lines, they have some super cute images and some fun ones for summer. 

Theme for this challenge is SMILE 
sponsorship-badge

I used cardstock on hand and embossed the green with my cuttlebug folder.  Colored the image with copics, used primas, cut up a flourish to add some black accents and lined it with my white gel pen. 

This card will be set aside with some others to send in to Sunshine Mail, and from there the cards will go to kids in need of cheering up.  If you have extra cards or just want to give to a good cause, make a card, join our challenge and send in a card for a child.  You have a chance to win a cool prize and you'll feel all warm and fuzzy inside!! :)

This is my last challenge with Sunshine Mail and I've had a great time working with them and believe that what they are trying to do is a very worthwhile cause.  Please check them out HERE.


And I'm off to get ready for a day of driving, basketball games, lots of diet coke and noisy girls in the back seat!  Happy Saturday!!


I am entering into the Just Some Lines challenge-Anything Goes

ALOHA- Scribbles Mid-Month #5

Here is my card for the mid-month Scribbles Challenge reminder for our challenge #5 which is the theme of Mother/Special Woman.  I made this card using Diva Lori Aloha image, isn't she fabulous!!  I also used the Escape ticket sentiment.  I totally love her and this came at a perfect time as I'm sending my card to a special person (who will not be named)  who will be going to Hawaii in a few weeks.   I'm hoping she doesn't see this post and this will be a nice little surprise in the mail. (Girlyfriend, if you see this post, just ignore it...k, thanks! ;)

Come check out our challenge and play along!

Friday Favorite #3

Right now my favorite Netflix tv series is ....................PSYCH!!!  Oh my gosh, if you haven't seen this, you really need to.  I started to watch the first season and kinda lost interest but then a few weeks ago started watching again and LOVE it!  Ash and I watch an episode here and there, and if we have time, we will watch several episodes, one right after the other.   we're Psych buddies, so we can't watch an episode without the other person there!!

  It is a little goofy, certainly not a serious crime drama, but there are so many of those on tv anyway.  This is a little light hearted, a ton of goofy, and the chemistry with Shawn and Gus is plain awesome!  The more I watch, the more I pick up on all the little Shawn-isms...it's just a fun series and I have LOL'd many, many times.  So...if you're looking for a new series to watch, give this one a chance and let me know what ya think.  Or, if you already watch...are you a fan?  Think it's dumb??    Who is your favorite character??  Let's talk! :D








Here is one of my favorite scenes from Season 2 episode 1 called "American Duos"  Shawn and Gus perform Tears for Fears "Shout" ...........SO FUNNY, I had to rewind and watch several times.  I was a child of the 80's and loved Tears for Fears, so I guess this just struck me as hilarious, esp Shawn's hair...perfect!!

 
A few more stills from the show that I love!



That's it for my Favorite Friday #3.   What is your favorite tv show right now??? Do tell! :)
