Ever After

 This is  my last card for awhile using the Magical Unicorns from My Favorite Things, I had colored up a few from the set to use for a color challenge and didn't get them all done in the time frame I was hoping for....so here is the one I made for the sketch challenge at MFT

I colored the unicorns and small clouds with copics and added some grass and clouds with distress ink.  I used an oval stitched die from C.C Designs and the edged stitch on the top and bottom are a die from Sugar Pea Designs.

Happily Ever After

I put together another card using the super cute Magical Unicorn stamp set from My Favorite Things, I am entering the color challenge and the sketch challenge.  I actually had a lot of fun with the colors and thought they were perfect for  whimiscal/mythical images.  The sentiment is also from MFT and is from the Essential Sentiments set.  The heart, pattern papers, and sentiment strip are also MFT.

Happy Together

 I'm a Guest DT member for September over at Let's Get Sketchy and this is the layout that I came up with, the sketch is right below.  I LOVE using sketches as it is the perfect jumping off point for creativity.  This layout definitley took on a life of its own.  I had several bold colors and lots of shapes on the sketch to work with and this was my final take.  

I love these pictures, they make the cutest Eric, Ariel and little flouder!!  I just swiped my distress pads across the paper for the bold color strips and hand colored and cut out the seaweed, my silhouette isn't hooked up yet, so the fish and crab are stickers and the "so cute, and together" words are from Elle's Studio.  I splattered some grey distress ink and added some enamel dots. I love how it finally turned out because I played with this for quiet awhile!! :)

                           

Wildest Dreams

 I played with the color challenge at My Favorite Things and also used the Magical Unicorns stamp set to create this card.  I colored up several unicorns in the color combo and created this card. 

I would like to enter it in the color challenge at MFT.  I used copic markers, cloud stencil, stamp set and matching die set and enamel dots.

Playing with Flowers

 I usually don't play with flower themed digi stamps or regular stamps, for some reason flowers tend to intimidate me a little.  I couldn't help but pick up the Beautiful Blossoms stamp set and the Just Vine Background stamp from Taylored Expressions and I've actually started to get over my aversion to flowers!  These flowers are so pretty and can be colored up quickly.  I also got the matching die set.

So I made a couple different cards using the daisy looking image and did two completely different styles and color combos. 

The first card is done in more fallish colors and I used the sketch over at My Favorite Things as the inspiration for the design.

and the second card I colored with contrasting colors. Everything was colored with copics, I used enamel dots and washi tape from Freckled Fawn and used the banner die from My Favorite Things.

Snapchat Obsession

It's been so good to spend some time actually scrapping, lately I've been pulled in too many directions and while I still have a few weeks of other obligations, I was happy to find a little time to join a layout sketch challenge over at Let's Get Sketchy

                                                
                                             Here is the sketch and then my take on it!

I didn't know anything about snapchat for the longest time and then when I did.....Holy Cow, I had found a way to entertain myself for a long time.  I would take pictures everyday with my favorite filters and trust me.....I have a ton!  This is a smidge of the pics and some fun ones.  I absolutely LOVE BREAD HEAD.....such a good time!  Anyway, I'm entering this in the Let's Get Sketchy challenge and then after a couple months I'm really hoping to get back to scrapbooking on a more regular basis!

Everything on this layout except for the letters are from my stash, and some elements from paper collections at are way old.  The letters are die cuts from My Favorite Stamps.

New Home

OH MY GOODNESS, I am so in love with this stamp set from My Favorite Things called
 Hangin with my Gnomies!  I mean look at this adorable little gnome home!  Soooo cute!  I love all things mythical and fantastical, so this set was a must have.  There are some fun punny gnome sentiments, mushrooms, ladybugs, flowers and leaves and 4 different gnomes along with the house.

I followed the challenge for the color combination and the sketch over at MFT for this card and love how it turned out.

and here is my take on the sketch and color combinations. I colored with copics and masked the house to shade the background with Simon Says Stamp ink and Taylor Expressions blender tools (first time using them and I LOVE them)
