Summer Fun

Good Morning! I hope you are all well and ready for another summer weekend.  I know that I am looking forward to a few days off work.  We are headed to the lake and I am hoping that the weather man is right for a change as they are calling for wonderful sunshine and warm temperatures.
 
 
 
I am here today with my card for the new challenge over at Stamp and Create with Magnolia. The theme this time around is Summer Fun so I have used Gone Fishing Tilda for my card. She has been coloured with Copics in colours that I hope give the image a fun summer feel. 
 
Once I was done I dug through my paper stash to find some papers that I felt suited the image. The papers are quite busy and I was having some trouble figuring out how to embellish so I have kept it simple.  The only little girl I know won't turn 3 until next year. Oh well, I'm early! Hee hee.

 
 
Stamp and Create carries a wide range of Magnolia stamps at some of the lowest prices!
 
I hope that you will join us for the challenge, don't forget that there is a great prize available.
Before you go off and start creating be sure to check out the main challenge blog to see all of the other DT creations.

What's Your Number

Good evening. Didn't get a post up this morning but I am here tonight to tell you about the new ABC Christmas Challenge that started today. The theme this go around is
 
N for Numbers
 
We have a fabulous new sponsor for this challenge , the winner will receive two free digis of their choice from Wendy's Etsy shop
 
My card for this challenge came together quite easily given that I don't seem to have many numbers in my stash. These cute little LOTV bears we're sitting there all coloured up just waiting to be made into a card. I dug around a bit and came up with a number sticker that I have matted on a diecut to give it a bit more punch. From there it was just a matter of digging through my stash to find some papers to pull it all together.
 

The end result is a little more bold than what I had imagined when colouring this image but I think it adds to the fun.

I hope you will join us and share your numbered creations. You never know, I just may need to go stock up after I've been inspired.
