Apple Pie anyone???


Hello everyone, Thursday is here so the week is almost at a close. I need Saturday to be here so I can stay home and get caught up here. :o) So many things need to be done. Just can't get on the top of it like I want.

Well, on to my card for today. I have made this little card with someone in mind. I won't tell you who as she does visit my blog and leaves me very sweet comments. I have used the sketch from Sketch Saturday and used the recipe from Stamp Something....
The recipe is......
1 ribbon, 2 papers, 3 embellishments (this can be a total of 3 or 3 different kinds)
I love this *NEW little image from the Greeting Farm. I did get all 4 of them and they are so cute. THis one is Twinkle Tot 'Lottie' and I purchased her from Elaine at Quixotic Paperie. So I just happen to know that the challenge at Quixotic Challenge blog is ***STITCHING***. I will also enter it there and that will be a first for me.

Wishing you all a wonderful Thursday and a Great weekend. Not sure I will be back until Sunday. Lots to do.
hugs, janny

Love and Happiness at Christmas Time


Today I have my Design Team creation for Creative Inspirations Challenge up for your viewing.The challenge today is USE SOMETHING NEW OR NEGLECTED. Well that is easy for everyone so jump over to the blog and join us!!!! I have used a *NEW** stamp that I purchased at the stamp show in Phoenix this past weekend. It is so precious and I have to say that I feel that I didn't do it justice. But I do plan on giving it another go soon. I have also use a new stamp from Renee Mullin Plum Purdy Designs that I have stamped on the tag of the card. I have made my card a bit clutter free for me as my normal is lots more goodies on them. This image is so detailed that I kept the card a little on the plainer side.

The Design team has done an outstanding job with the cards. Make sure to stop over and have a look. I hope that you will join us with this beautiful color combo this week.
Wishing you all a great day........
many blessing to you,
janny

Sugar Nellie mini blog hop with Judy and Dena

Good morning,
Today myself, Judy and Dena are back on our little blog hop. I hope you enjoy it as much as we love doing it.

We have chosen to use the Windswept image by SUGAR NELLIE. She is a beautiful little girl that can be used in so many different ways. I can't wait to see what the girlies have came up with. It's a blast to see. I have used my copic markers to color this little sweetie. A bit daring for me. As I like to use my watercolor pencil with them. But not this time. Over at the Copic Creations Challenge blog they have Challenge No. 15 as Red Hair. So I am going to be brave and enter this into the challenge for the first time. I have distressed this card a lot to make it look a card from long long ago so I will also be entering it at Everybody Art Challenge as the challenge this week is distressing.
This cute little Sugar Nellie stamps can be bought at Funkykits
.
Thanks for stopping by today for our little blog hop......now just on over and see what
Judy and Dena have done.
many blessings, janny

Colour Create Challenge....Blue, White and Silver


Hello all my blogging friends,Today is the Colour Create challenge. You are going to love to work with these colours!!! The challenge was set by the very talented Karen and she has chose BLUE, WHITE and SILVER with extra option glitter and winter. The Design teams cards are gorgeous!! Make sure to stop by and have a look. I hope you can join us this week.
We had a lot of entries for the White on White. Thanks for joining us. I had fun stopping by your blogs.


Here is a little inspiration to get you started.


This week our sponsor is Handy Hippo.
I have used a another very cute little image by Renee Mullen with Plum Purdy Designs.Her designs are so easy and fun to work with. I have to tell you that this card was a true challenge for me as I normally use 3 or 4 papers and this time I only used 2. I also painted my image and then wanted it to look somewhat like a window so I cut it into 9 little pieces and glued it to some blue card stock. Okay now this was a sick feeling after I had just spent a good bit painting it. Have you ever done this before? It was my first time and my tummy turned as I did the cutting. LOL........I also used my sanding pad and sanded the edges after I used distressed ink on them. I have also use a single little bird stamp by Renee and added it to the snowflakes in the right hand upper corner. I have added pearls to the snowman/women's apron and added glitter for the sparkle. I have use a beautiful satin white ribbon and added silver domes down the middle of it. I have sewn the card and finally added some Crystal Lacquer to the hat, scarf, birdhouse and birds for a bit of gloss.

Can you see the faint silhouette of the Santa's sleigh and reindeer just above the left corner of the image window?


Okay I am rambling. SORRY!..... I will just let you look now..

Thanks for stopping by to see my little work's of art.

Have a WONDERFUL day,
hugs, janny.

Sweet as Cherry Pie...........


Today I have my Design Team creation for Creative Inspirations Challenge up for your viewing. The colors this week is RED & BLACK... I love this color combo. The Design team has done an outstanding job with the cards. Make sure to stop over and have a look. I hope that you will join us with this beautiful color combo this week.

I have used a cute little Tilda by Magnolia that can be purchased at Michelle's Scrapbooking and More. I have colored her with my copic markers and watercolor pencils. I have used my distressed inks to do the background and edges of all papers. I have made this card to look a tad vintage by scuffing up the edges of some of the papers and using my distressed inks on ribbon, dollie and Prima flowers. If you have looked close then you have seen that I spelled You 're wrong on the card. :o( What a dummy I am!!!! I caught it after I took the photos. :o( It is now fixed on the card but to dark to get more photo's so you get to see my boo boo. :o( It made me laugh and I hope it does you too.

Thanks for stopping by today..
Hope you have a great day,
big hugs, janny
