Cindy's Antics! Stamping, Scrapping, Crocheting, Family!!!

    A couple of weeks ago, I found a new digi site (to me),   JustInkLined .  I just couldn't resist this Fairy Grama. Isn't she a hoot???!!            I colored her with Copics, shaded with Pebbles Chalk, used my fancy Creative Memories Corner punch. The dp is Kaleidoscope by K & Co. I just love it!!      I added some flowers, brads and bling.               Of course, we must not forget the good 'ol Stickles!!          I hope you enjoyed my Fairy Grama!!   I will definitely have to color her up again!!   I almost forgot... the sentiment is from SU. I do not remember the name.  My fellow stamper, Cindy G , stamped a bunch of them up for me.      I'm entering this at Color Me Creative Classroom . The challenge was to color hair a non-traditional color or multi-color.  I colored her hair blue.   ...

   Finally...I have colored again!!  This is a cute little Snowman from Designed2Delight. I don't know why I continually color the images before thinking of the layout I will use.  I had the hardest time picking a background dp for this.  It seems the Christmas papers didn't match right, none of the greens matched, neither did the turquoise ones.  So, maybe I will remember, next time...pick layout first, then color!!   I used Copics, my Creative Memories Corner Rounder, SU circle and Scallop circle punches.  The sentiment is an Inky Antics stamp.     Yesterday was our family Thanksgiving.  This is me and my Mom cutting of the making for our Polish Dressing. You either like it or hate it!! It has the giblets (liver,heart,gizzards, neck) plus carrots, eggs, celery, onion, bread and seasonings. I have loved it all my life.  I remember getting up early in the morning to help my Grama and my Mom make it.    Here ar...

      Many months ago I won blog candy from Gina .  I am finally coloring up one of the stamps!! There were a lot of stamps in that box of blog candy!!  Check out her blog: "Makings and Musings."   She actually used a Sweet Pea Stamp today.     This image is available at Sweet Pea Stamps .   It was designed by Ching Chou Kuik, but I could not find the name of this particular stamp.      This is a perfect image for the challenge over at Color Me Creative Classroom , titled  "Colors of the Sea."     Cardstock is Tempting Turquiose and Gina K Pure Luxury White.  I embossed with the Cuttlebug and sponged with Tempting Turquoise ink. Image was colored with Copics and shaded with Pebbles chalk. I added stickles to make her scales shine.    Hoping you can see the bling!                              I hope you enj...

    This weeks challenge at Cute Card Thursday   is for this past Sunday,  Remembrance Sunday .  Our card is to be made with the color Red , or to feature Poppies.   Mine has both.   I have always loved this SU stamp from the "Oh So Lovely" set.    The image is colored with Copics, shaded with Pebbles chalk, and Stickles were added for a little sparkle.  I used a Nesties Scallop, added Primas and ribbon.  The dp is from K & Co. Designer Mat Pad by Susan Winget.  It goes perfectly with the poppies!!  I also used the Bow Easy for the first time!! I definitely need to practice, but I think it turned out ok.     I didn't do very well at bowling this week!! I only bowled my average of 130 for one game out of 3... Oh well, maybe next week!!

      Our Title Acronym stands for: D ivine,  I nspirational, V irtuous, A rtistic (or Annointed) S istahs!  Our group originated at SCS back over 2 yrs ago. Our blog hop showcases cards made with items that we’ve had “stashed”.  An “Oldie But, Goodie” that we’ve pulled out and blown the dust off of to create something with it. So please join us as we journey along the way to discover some hidden treasures we’ve had tucked away that we’ve designed just for this special occasion with many more to come! You should have arrived from Linda Payne's  blog. She has fabulous creations!!     This month's hop was to focus on "Thanks." I had my card made ahead of time before I knew that, but Little Miss Lilyboo is very thankful for the big bag of hearts she has there in her hand!!     This is a digi  from "Cuddly Buddly"  , a group of stamps called "Lilyboo." I know it is more than 6 months old, because ...

    This weeks challenge at the Paper Shelter ,   is called All in Pink.. How do you like Little Miss Gilly??  She is caroling away all dressed in pink!! She is a Prairie Fairy digi, called "Gilly's Caroling."  Card stock is Pretty in Pink, Blush Pink, a misc. green, and the dp is DCWV Christmas.  I colored with Copics, and embossed all of her fur with pink powder.  It probably would have looked better in white.  Now that I see, I should have colored her book in Green!!  That's what I get for coloring before I choose my paper!!   I think this paper is just perfect!! Thank you for visiting!!  Come back soon!!!

  I didn't make this card, my daughter, Jenn, did. She made it for her son, my Grandson, Hunter!!     She did an awesome job!!   She heat embossed the sentiment as well as the dump truck.  Both stamps are by Great Impressions.    I'm going to post this in 2 challenges, Sassy Cheryl's, "Emboss it" and Stamps R Us, "Masculine."      Tonight we had Cristine's Birthday dinner. She picked Fondue..  Main course: Beef, Chicken,Shrimp, Scallops, veggies  Cristine & Kris   Dessert:  Banana bread, pound cake, fruit   Jenn   Me   Me & Cristine Happy Birthday!!!  (30)
