...Christmas Card and New Challenge!

I have been busy playing with my new Imagine and trying to get some challenges done. I have one card to post that I finished for Christmas and a Challenge at Simply Scrapping Copic Corner. Our challenge was to create a card using Caucasian Skin Tones and Brown Hair with Highlights. I hope you enjoy! I hope you love this image by Mo Manning as much as I do!! I think she is just beautiful and love how she dressed up my card. I have so much catching up to do on making cards as I have been under the weather for the past couple of weeks! Trying to get my Mojo going as this is definitely not the time of year that it needs to be straying! LOL! Please leave some comments!

....Sending you Butterfly Kisses!

Butterfly Kisses". I used the Imagine to print and cut out the butterfly sentiment and just love how it came out! My image is "Princess tu-tu" from Elisabeth Bell and her images are amazing!! I love them too! The papers are from DCWV the summer glitter stack, I think... The front of the paper pack has come off so I am not sure which one it is.
Thank you so much for stopping by and I would love it if you would become a follower and leave a comment! I thrive on comments good or bad as I would love to have your opinion or suggestions!!

....Happy Halllween and Best Witches~!

"Best Witches" Tilda! I created her for the Copic Challenge at Simply Scrapping. The recipe called for a Halloween Card and it must use Orange and Black. I used Copics C9, C7, C5, C3, C1, and C00 for Tilda's dress, hat, and shoes. I used the gold Spica pen on the buckles and buttons. I also added straw sticks to the broom but they don't show up to well in this picture. The pumpkins are from Cindy Echtinaw's Design Stamps Of Stamping Scrapping that she operates with her darling husband Kevin and I colored these with YR09, YR07, YR15, and YR12. The sentiment Best Witches is also from Cindy's design stamps. I have to tell ya these are really high quality great stamps! You can get them at her store that she operates with hubby Kevin. The bat is printed and cut with my new Imagine!

.....Challenge Cards..!!

"I Hope You'll Dance" and image by Mo Manning and it called Mummu! Isn't she the cutest thing? I just love her! She makes me smile and just feel good all over. I have been running around the house singing "I Hope You'll Dance" all day long! LOL! "I Hope You'll Dance" was created for another Copic Challenge at Simply Scrapping in which the recipe called for coloring with grays, either hair or metal. I thought Mummu's gray hair would be perfect for this and really love the way she turned out! The music frame borders were printed with my Imagine however it was my first Imagine and I had to cut them out by hand! You wouldn't believe how much faster the new Imagine is compared to me spending hours cutting these out by hand! Amazing! I inked them up with Broken China Distress Ink from Tim Holtz. The roses are from Wild Orchid.
I just found out that each card you link for challenges have to be on a separate post. I am adding separate posts for each one of my challenge cards! Thank you so much for any love you leave! I love reading your comments and would love any suggestions!!

~~~~~I Found Some MOJO!!!~~~~~

I found a little bit of my MOJO and cranked out a couple of cards for some of the challenges I have been missing out on.
My first card is "Best Witches" Tilda! I created her for the Copic Challenge at Simply Scrapping. The recipe called for a Halloween Card and it must use Orange and Black. I used Copics C9, C7, C5, C3, C1, and C00 for Tilda's dress, hat, and shoes. I used the gold Spica pen on the buckles and buttons. I also added straw sticks to the broom but they don't show up to well in this picture. The pumpkins are from Cindy Echtinaw's Design Stamps Of Stamping Scrapping that she operates with her darling husband Kevin and I colored these with YR09, YR07, YR15, and YR12. The sentiment Best Witches is also from Cindy's design stamps. I have to tell ya these are really high quality great stamps! You can get them at her store that she operates with hubby Kevin. The bat is printed and cut with my new Imagine! I adore this machine! I ordered it from the Premier on HSN and received it on September 22nd. My Imagine printed beautifully but would not cut so had to send it back for a replacement. Provocraft had this new Imagine sitting on my front porch two days after I shipped the other one back! Way to Go Provocraft!! I received it about a week ago and have just really started playing with it. Yesterday was the big update day in which the Imagine can now talk to the Gypsy however my Gypsy is at Provocraft as the cord connection was not working and you had to really twist the cord around and hold it without moving to get it to work. Hopefully, my new Gypsy will be here this week as it has been almost two weeks since I shipped it back.


My second card is from "I Hope You'll Dance" and image by Mo Manning and it called Mummu! Isn't she the cutest thing? I just love her! She makes me smile and just feel good all over. I have been running around the house singing "I Hope You'll Dance" all day long! LOL! "I Hope You'll Dance" was created for another Copic Challenge at Simply Scrapping in which the recipe called for coloring with grays, either hair or metal. I thought Mummu's gray hair would be perfect for this and really love the way she turned out! The music frame borders were printed with my Imagine however it was my first Imagine and I had to cut them out by hand! You wouldn't believe how much faster the new Imagine is compared to me spending hours cutting these out by hand! Amazing! I inked them up with Broken China Distress Ink from Tim Holtz. The roses are from Wild Orchid.


My next creation is "Ooooh Santa Baby" and my naughty angel "Lady Raven" is a digi from Kenny K! I absolutely adore his images! I think I have purchased almost all of them and can't wait for him to release more! LOL!! I created this card for a challenge at Color Me Creative Classroom Challenge in which the recipe called for us to color something and show that it is sheer. As you can see on her upper thigh the little skirt coming down is sheer and showing some gorgeous leg! LOL!


Last but not least is "Butterfly Kisses". I used the Imagine to print and cut out the butterfly sentiment and just love how it came out! My image is "Princess tu-tu" from Elisabeth Bell and her images are amazing!! I love them too! The papers are from DCWV the summer glitter stack, I think... The front of the paper pack has come off so I am not sure which one it is.

Fold of this card

I simply adore this card that Elisabeth Bell has up! Does anyone know what this fold is? I would love to make one but don't know exactly how it is done. Does it have a tag on the inside? If you know please leave me a comment on how to do this fold or a post to a tutorial.

Who Took My Mojo??

Wow! It has been forever since I have added a new post! Darnedest thing! I can't find my mojo! I have looked everywhere...I looked naturally in my craftroom...under papers, punches, Copics, stickles, inks, etc. It isn't anywhere in here! I am sure I left it in here as this was the last place I used it! Stamps are laying everywhere and my Copics are scattered on my desk...I am sure this is where I had it last! My craftroom is in such disarray I am sure no one has come in here...but my MOJO is GONE!! HELP!!! I have about ten Magnolias, four or five Kenny Ks, and a couple of Elizabeth Bell's colored but no cards....my Mojo must have left somewhere in between. I was also watching some of Suzanne Dean's videos on coloring with my Copics, I did take the laptop into the family room so that was the next place I looked. Still no MOJO! I noticed that some of my stamped images I had colored were homework for Suzanne's class so I found my camera and started to snap some shots. Would you believe my camera's battery is dead? Unloading the battery and searching for the charger ......Dang it! I had left the charger in Colorado at the cabin. I know the Mojo isn't at the cabin as I did complete a few cards after returning.....so that option is out! If anyone comes across my MOJO...please...please...please send it back! I am going to see if I can borrow a camera or at the very least go purchase a new charger. I am headed back to the cabin in a few days. Maybe then I can put up a new post.
Have a fun and fabulous week!
Praying for your family and mine!

Woooo Hooooo It Is Friday!

Hi!
I am so glad today is Friday and I am anxiously awaiting the BIG GAME tomorrow! In case you don't know the BIG GAME is the Red River Shoot Out between Oklahoma Sooner (wooo hooo!) and the Texas Longhorn (boo hiss!)! I love this game and pray that my beloved Sooners come through and make hamburger meat out of those 'ole Longhorns!
The card I am posting is "Little Rapunzel" by Elisabeth Bell, I just love this image and have used her on several cards! I am entering her in the Copic Creation Challenge and the Simon Says Challenge. The theme is using orange in a fall scene.
I am so excited as I have sold four of my cards this week! These are my very first cards that I have actually sold! I am so honored that people want to purchase my cards!
Tomorrow, I am going to my first crop ever!! It started today but I could not get there until tomorrow and lasts until Sunday at 3:00 p.m. I am really excited but nervous at the same time! There is so much talent out there I am always afraid of looking inadequate!
My new Cricut Imagine came in last week and I couldn't believe how wonderful the print is! Bummer though mine has to be sent back to Provo Craft as it won't cut! The real Bummer is my Gypsy is being sent back also as it has been having issues with the cord. I have to wiggle it around to get it to make contact and then hold it without moving to get it to work. I was hoping to play with my new Imagine while my Gypsy was gone but now both will be gone. I will be having Cricut withdrawals!
I hope you have a fabulous weekend!
Praying for your family and mine!
