Happy Birthday to you

It really saddens me to mention I  no longer find the time and the energy to create cards.  I miss sitting in my studio everyday and spending just a few precious moments just me and my images and of course my pencil crayons.

Here is a card I had actually made awhile back but had not had a chance to share it.

Meet Anastasia from the Green Bean Baby Collection. 

As you can see I coloured her up with my prisma pencil Crayons and used Sakura clear glitter pen to give her sweet little sparkles.

May Your Year be filled with Wonderful Days

Hello bloggers, hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Mine was very busy, had dinner guests on Saturday and Sunday so I pretty much spent the weekend in the kitchen.  However,  Friday was a real treat as my kids surprised me with an early Mother's day present which blew be off the water, they bought me the new iPhone 4S, I could not believe my eyes, of course this was mainly funded by my DH.  I will be off to the mall today to look at some cases for it so it does not get scratched.

Aside from being extremely busy, I managed to get a card done and she is absolutely adorable in my humble opinion. Meet Izzie with a Cherry on Top, she makes a perfect birthday card and the sentiment is actually from Mo Manning .

I coloured her up with Prisma pencil crayons and used liquid appliqué for the icing on the cupcake to give it a 3D effect. For extra added detail, I distress inked some clouds in the background and added glitter with a clear Sakura jelly pen.

Don't forget about this weeks Bellariffic Challenge which is SEWING - Faux or real, it's totally up to you. Just email your card to Emily by this Thursday and she will have it up on the Bella Blog on Friday.

That's all for today Friends, thanks for dropping by !!

Dark and Gloomy Out

Hello bloggers, I hope you're having better weather then us here in Ontario. It is dark and rainy today but one good news is it's going up to 18 degrees. I have tons of chores inside and outside of the house, first of all I need to go to Costco to pick up some handing plants for the back and the front yard. Last week I bought a small Lilac bush and planted that in the back yard, I love the smell of Lilacs and can't wait to see them blossom. My plan is to snip them off as they grow and put them all over my house for colour and scent. I have also planted some Dahlia bulbs for the first time so I am hoping the rabbits won't get to the bulbs.

 To be honest with you, I was never into gardening but I'm really enjoying it now. One sad thing is I do not have a Green thumb and most of the time whatever I plant, dies on me.  Last year I planted Four Cedar pine trees in the back yard and this year we pulled them all out cause they did not survive. I'm thinking maybe it's the drainage, my soil is staying to wet and rotting all the roots. OK, I'm sure you had enough about me rambling on about my gardening experiments and experiences so lets move onto a card shall we.

On Saturday a bunch of us girls went out for dinner to celebrate one of our BF's birthday and this is the card I made for her. She is an Uptown Girl called Posh has a present.  Every time there is a birthday or a celebration, my friends look forward to what card they are going to get from me rather then the present and this makes me so happy cause they really value and treasure my work.

This is a large stamp image therefore you can't play around with design to much cause she pretty much covers most of the card. I stamped her on Bellas bestest White paper and coloured her with Prisma's and Copics. If you look closely at her shoe's I glittered them all up.... hehehe !! LOVE Glittah.

This week's Bellariffic Friday challenge is a Sketch. Don't forget to email your cards to Emily and upload them onto SCS website under the keyword BELLARIFFIC1712.

Hanging Sign Birthday Card

Hello bloggers, it's a late post today but I wanted to share my Hanging Sign card. I always say you can never have enough of birthday cards and I have quite a few lined up next month.

I stamped my image on Bella's bestest white paper and coloured it with Prisma pencils. For extra added detail I glued 3 random buttons, don't the buttons look familiar to Fridays card :D. If you look closer, you will notice I did Faux stitching around my card and I must admit it looks like machine stitched. 

Quick reminder for next weeks Bellariffic Friday challenge (BELLARIFFIC1612) use FLOWERS.
I absolutely love flowers so I'm looking forward to seeing all of your lovely flower cards, so be sure to play along with the rest of us Bella's and post it to the SCS website.

That's all for today everyone, thanks for dropping by !!
