Kind of Woman Word Art

Two years ago, I created this card:
I have seen this quote so many times.  I have no idea who's quote it is.
I created my own digi for it.  I never added it to the blog post.  
So I just wanted to add it here:
If you use any of my digis, leave me a comment with link to your project!
I would love to see it!
Thanks for coming by!

Seeing Spots...Eating Cake

Hello Wonderful Crafters!  
It is so awesome of you to stop by.  It's a busy time of year for so many of you out there.  End of year activities, graduations, etc... In Florida, our school year ends around this time.
So hopefully, you've been able to sneak in some crafting here and there.  
Since school is out for me, I am able to sit at my desk and get my mojo going.
Wags 'n Whiskers has a new challenge!
**Please read all of the rules at the top of the blog.**
One lucky participant will win a free Wags 'n Whiskers Rubber stamp!
You don't have to use a Wags 'n Whiskers image on your card, but if you do, you will be entered into a 2nd drawing for a free Wags 'n Whiskers Digi.
On to my card:
 I'm using Magali.  She is stamped onto watercolor paper and colored with Twinklin' H2Os.  I then had her cut out with the Silhouette.  Pretty awesome.
I really like this color combo.  I've used it quite a few times: Betty Boop,  Animal, Ninja, Meow, and on the Bingo card I used the same stamp.
Card Details:
Base - PTI White
DP - Retired DP SU Rockabilly
Leaves - My stash
RicRac - My stash
This next pic I took without flash.
 The next pic is with flash - so you can see the texture of the leaves better.
The Sentiment is from Ginger's House.  Go check out her blog.  Free word art everyday!

Grateful Puppy Love

Ok - so I was early making my card for the Wags 'n Whiskers challenge but I am super late with my post.  So so so sorry!
The challenge is for Banners or Bunting.
**Please read all of the rules at the top of the blog**
One lucky participant will win a free Wags 'n Whiskers Rubber stamp!
You don't have to use a Wags 'n Whiskers image on your card, but if you do, you will be entered into a 2nd drawing for a free Wags 'n Whiskers Digi.

This is actually a first for me.  I've never done a banner before.  I love checking out Lacey's cards because she uses banners quite a bit...but I have never done one.  It wasn't a hard.  It was actually super easy.  That's why I like these and other challenges.  It forces me out of my comfort zone.  My style is usually easy peasy/CASish.  So doing something new is great.

Onto my card:


The precious stamp is called Puppy Love.  I like that you can use this image for a friend or for love...it works for so many occasions.  Go!  Buy it!  You need it! :-)
This is stamped on watercolor paper and colored with Twinklin' H2Os.


Other Card Details:
Base - SU Daffodil Delight
DP - SU Gingham Garden
Twine - Divine Twine Yellow Solid
Buttons - My Stash


I made the banner using my Silhouette.  Simple Triangles were cut out and glued to the twine.


The sentiment I made and cut it out with a circle punch.

You can download it here.
If you use any of my digis, leave me a comment with link to your project!
I would love to see it!

I am entering the following challenges:
Craft Your Passion - 260:Anything Goes
Alphabet Challenge - F is for Friends
Brown Sugar Challenge - Anything Goes
Cards Galore Challenge - Anything Goes for May
Thanks for hanging out with me!
