An Udder Birthday?

***Please scroll down for Preview Day 3 of Jude & the Rockers from SBS!***

Good morning people!  It's time for another challenge at Anita Be Stampin Challenges!  Today is all about the recipe...we had to use 3 designer papers, 1 flower and 1 trim.  I combined this challenge with the one over at Basic Grey Challenges calling for stitches.  Woohoo!  I feel so accomplished!  LOL!

I used some of my favey BG Oliver paper along with the Celebration Cooper rubber stamp set.  How fun!

Thanks so much for popping in on me today!  I appreciate the comments!  Be sure to check out the ABSC blog for all the deets and to see what the other DT members have made for ya!

Hi There

Good morning everyone!  Sorry my Anita Be Stampin post is a little late this morning...we had some some pretty freaky weather last night and I didn't get my post scheduled.  :O)

Anyway, here is my card.  I made the flowers...cool, huh?  I love the way they came out.  I used the stamp set called Monster Hugs for my card today.  Only a sentiment on the front because I didn't want one of those adorable monsters stealing the show away from the flowers.  I did, however, use one of them on the inside of the card.  The beautiful lace is from Wild Orchid, the DP (which I LURVE) is by MME, I used my Silhouette to cut the leaves and petals for my flowers, butterfly is a charm from my stash.

Don't forget about the current challenge going on over at Anita Be Stampin Challenges...make a shaped card.  It's super easy to win!  Pop over and check out all the deets, won't you?  Thanks so much for coming by today!

Love You Bunches

Good morning everyone!  I hope you're all raring and ready to go this Tuesday morning.  Wishful thinking in my neck of the woods!  It's time for another round of Anita Be Stampin Challenges though...that's always something to look forward to when it's SO EASY TO WIN!  :O)

Today's challenge is to make a shaped card with the option of adding buttons.  I totally missed that part when we decided on the challenge, so mine doesn't include any buttons this.  It's my prerogative to leave them off!  I used the cling mounted rubber stamp set called Bears & Bunches for my card today.  I used some nummy MME DP and Copics to color.  I added some sparkle to the flowers, including the handmade one, using Stickles.

Be sure to check out the ABSC blog for all the deets on how YOU can be the next winner and to see all the other fab DT samples!  Thanks so much for coming by today!  <3

Monster Hugs

Good morning everyone!  I hope you all had a wonderful and safe Memorial Day weekend.  I know we did!  :O)  It's time for another round of Anita Be Stampin Challenges!  This week we're going with Layer It On as our theme...EASY!

I used the super cute Monster Hugs set for my card and embossed him with white embossing powder.  I layered and layered...there are 11 layers of paper on this baby...not to mention the layered flower!  I added some Divine Twine in Green Apple.  :O)  I used my awesome buddy, Cheri - aka Graphicat's May sketch for this little cutie.  Doesn't she make fab sketches?

Be sure to join us at the ABSC blog...you now have 2 weeks to play along with us!  Woot!  Check out the other teamies creations and see how you can be our next prize winner!  :O)

Fairy Wings

Good morning everyone!  Happy Tuesday!  I'm here with another round of Anita Be Stampin Challenges!  Today's challenge?  A recipe...PEARLS & LACE!  Fun!

I used the sweet digital image called Ariana for my card today.  I used some delish American Crafts DP that I got on clearance at Michael's and colored with Copics.  I used the very first sketch from my buddy {Jen Shults'} brand new sketch challenge - The Deconstructed Sketch.

Be sure to check out the ABS Challenge blog for all the deets on the current challenge and find out how easy it is to win!  :O)

BEEP!

Good morning all and happy Tuesday!  I'm back with another challenge post for Anita Be Stampin Challenges!  Anita herself has made our sketch challenge for you today.

I used the cling mounted rubber stamp set called Love Bots for my card.  I used my Cuttlebug to make some texture on the gray card stock and some Tim Holtz gears.

Anita Be Stampin Release Preview

Good morning, folks!  I'm here with a fun sneaky peek of one of Anita Be Stampin's newest digi release images!  It will be released tomorrow with the other 3 cute fairies along with a sentiment sheet!  Be sure to head over to the Anita Be Stampin blog to check out all the cuteness!  Be sure to come back on Friday and join the blog hop...I'm sure prizes will be up for grabs!  ;O)

Meet Meadow!  I colored her in Copics and I have to say that I should have made her larger.  I damn near colored her whole hair bow with the hair color.  Whoops!

Don't forget to join us for the current color challenge over at Anita Be Stampin Challenge blog too!

I Love Your Smile!

Good morning, people!  I hope you are all doing better than we are over here.  My dear daughter is sickly...again.  We had her at Children's Mercy urgent care on Sunday...egads!  Turns out she has a urinary tract infection...she's miserable and I am too.  :O(  She felt a bit better today, so I'm hoping for a full recovery by tomorrow.

Anyway...I'm here for another fun challenge at Anita Be Stampin Challenges.  Today is a color challenge from our teamie Tracy.  :O)  I love it!  I used the Love Monsters set...aren't these little guys so sweet?!

Be sure to stop by the ABS Challenge blog for all the details regarding the prizes, etc...and JOIN US!  Thanks so much for coming by today!  :O)

Celebrate!

Good morning everyone!  I hope all is well in your neck of the woods.  I'm here this morning with another round of challenges at Anita Be Stampin Challenges!  I do hope you'll join us!  We have some fun changes that will be implemented starting this week too...regarding prizes.  Come on over and check it out!

I used the adorable Celebration Cooper for my card today.  The sketch was fun and created by our very own teamie, Jen Shults!  I used some BG Olivia paper and I just love it!  :O)  I tried to get a good picture of the ribbon since that's where my sentiment came from, but I didn't do a very good job capturing it...satin ribbon is apparently not my friend.  LOL!

Thanks for stopping by today!  I love it when you do!  :O)
