Morning, thanks everyone for your thoughts and prayers yesterday, every thing went great!!!  the doctor was real please so guess I am too.

Here is a card i made the other day for the Sugar Bowl sketch challenge.  Her name is Verity, colored with Spectrum pens, and I added liquid pearls to her dress.  I cut her out using Spellbinders calssic Circle leaving her legs hang over, then I matted it with a Scalloped circle.  Added a glittered leaf from Foliage, 2 flowers from Bitty Blossoms and the pearls here and there,.  the sentiment is from Stampin Up on a circle and matted with Ironwork Motifs.  The paper is also Stampin Up.  Hope you like, have a great day and I'll be round later to comment!!!

Cup of Joe

Morning gorgeous people, gonna be fast and loud this morning, ever watch that show, it's about cars of course but we never miss it.  Anywho, it's off to Winston this morning but I do want to share this card first.  Awhile back a blogging friend sent me this Heartfelt Creations stamp ( I do not know the name or number and it is retired),  I loved it and so she mailed it to me, this is the first time I have used it, it's that coloring thing, I'm slow but I'm getting there.  then on FB yesterday Heartfelt Creations had a video on there on making Roses.  Now grant ya I don't have the flower stamps she was using but I did have the HCPC3406 and HCPC3407 Botanical Floral 1 & 2.  So I followed her instructions and using Spellbinders Rose Creations cut them out, I even used a hot glue gun like Emma Lou did, I love how this rose turned out.  So easy!!!!  All the paper is Stampin UP, twine is also added.  That's it, I'm gone, I'll try and get by your blogs before I head out, so until then, have a fantastic day!!!

Good morning, it's raining like crazy out here this morning, poor doggies, they didn't even want to go out LOL.....  Here is a card I made this past weekend using some gorgeous items I won (thanks Tesa),  It's the Prickley Pear set Cleary Beautiful and matching die.  Love the leaves with swirls and flowers right in it!!!  I had a piece of left over paper fro Heartfelt Creations laying on the counter and began stamping randomly ove it with one of the stamps, then using Spellbinders Decorative Labels Eight I started cutting and placing.  Stamped 3 more leaves out of printed paper from the scrap basket, cut those out and attached to the card, still needed something, so 3 flowers using Bitty Blossoms were made and added. Golds, browns and reds.  The perfect fall card...........yall have a good one and I'll catch up later!!  Stay dry.
