A hug "Fur" you


Hi everyone... it's only been 3 days since school began and I fee like it's been a month.. I have been running to every store in town getting speciality papers and note books and I can go on and on LOL.. However I do have a quick post to share tonight.

This card is for this weeks challenge over at Delightful Inspiration and Double Delight challenges. As you may now every month Faith gives a freebie for the "first" Friday of the month and whom ever follows and play along is automatically entered for the next week's freebie until the month is done and then we start again.. And now her talented DT has a new challenge blogs to go along with the freebies that Faith offers. This week was a challenge was a "sketch" challenge and what a beautiful and fun sketch it was.

The Image is called "Teddy" and I colored him with my Prisma and OMS my DP is from a scrapbook pack that I got from Oriental Trading Co. (it is a set for a new baby and it just fit in with the theme so beautifully.. I inked the edge with some "studio g" ink and then cut out with my Nesti the flower also came from O.T.Co. Look at the sentiment this came from Create with TLC I really love Paulette's sentiment she always have something for u to use no matter what image u have.  I decrate with some Pears and Bling.. I hope u enjoy and have a wonderful evening.




Blessings,
Sharette

Look What I Got ATG


Hi everyone; look what I got in the mail today :0)... so excited my FIRST ATG (advanced tape glider) that's what the lady from the CHA demo called it .. I ordered  it from Custom Crops about a month ago, but it was on back order I got an email from them last week saying that they had shipped it out to me,  and today I got it.
What was funny is that last week I also saw on a site that u could also get it from Michael's, I paid $26.00, and Michael's has theirs for about $35.00 and I believe u can use ur 40% coupon with it so u might get it for about the same price,,, the one thing that a few people stated was that they did not have a lot in stock, so it's best to call ahead to make sure they have them..

It is soo cute and Pink and it comes with a pack of two rolls of  the 1/4 tape. I was a little intimidated with loading it, but I watched that demo and read the instruction, and I had no problem with it.. I hope I get a chance to play with it later on this evening.

A Fairy Card & Back to School time



Hi everyone; its pretty late for me .. but I finally have a little me time.. and I have to "unwind" before I can sleep so why not post a comment and a card on my "blog". Tomorrow my two older  kids start their "first day" of school!!! yeah :0) .... Brianna will be a 'SENIOR this year.. ( I have a child that is graduation from HIGH SCHOOL.. WOWWWW lol../ Here is another WOW; as I sit here just thinking about it.. My youngest/daughter Lynette is entering "Kindergarden" next month!! Christopher will be a "sophomore" and will be playing on the Jr. Varsity Basket ball team., and not leaving out my 2nd son Jordan he is also entering a mile stone him self as he is entering the 6th grade and will also be graduating him self from "elementary school".. Yes I have quite a year in front of me and I want to enjoy every minute of it with my family.

On to my card I colored this gorgeous little fairy form Mo's Digital  a few weeks a go for one her challenges, but never got a chance to making the card or posting it.. So when I saw that the theme for this weeks challenge is "Things with Wings" I  knew that it was my chance to show her off.. I love Mo's image, I follow her on FB and have been fortunate to get a couple of her images as "freebies" and that is how I got "Finna" I colored her with my prisma and OMS and I colored her wings with my Sakura gell pens'. I got the butterfly's from Michaels on clearance the DP is from EK success ( I said it before but I got it from the .99 cents store... I loved the colors and just loved how the card came together.
I hope u like it.. ;0)

A card for a cure & A circle easel


I started to color my image on Thursday night. then yesterday  I took my kids "back to school shopping" as we were in a store where my son was shopping ( yes he was making his own purchase with his own money that he worked for- did i mention how "proud of them I am :0)... and both him and my daughter went crazy when they say this  wrist band they both had to have one (they do come in different colors.. this on is for my daughter & my son got a black & white one!!What was amazing is that they new what it stood for And that it is the "must have" for the new school year and they where just going on and on about it.

I loved how it all Incorporated with my card and theme that I was doing for a couple of challenges . My image is from SSD (I have soo many of Lindsay's image, and I'm getting to play with a lot of them, which I just love. I colored her with my Prisma & OMS and Sakura gell pen to glamor up her shoes and belt. I printed her twice to make sure she really poped up off the card. What I really loved was that this was my first "Round" easel card, I have seen quite a few of these cards and I just love how great  the finished product looked so I wanted to try.

A Cricut Card


Hi everyone; I am enjoying a beautiful Saturday with my "FAM" It's not HOT as it has been in the last week or so. (which is a good thing trust me :0) I made this card about a week a go, but never got to post it.. It is a card for my "Sister-N-Law"  we chat on FB ( I tell everyone how much I love face-book) it is on of the only way I can keep in contact with my family and friends..  I am not a  phone chatter or anything like that, so it is great that I can know how everyone is doing by just going to my page..So anyways she stated that she wanted some pictures of he kids, because it had been a "while" since she has seen them. (actually a LONG WHILE!!!
I had just received my new "forever  young" cartridge that I got from Custom Crops. (they are one of my favorite place to shop.. and always have the best deal on Cricut Cartridge, so I decided that I would make her card with it.. She loves shopping and shoes ( i think that's where my youngest gets it from lol)

Card stock & Ribbon: PTI (Summer Breeze), DP: (I forgot the name,,got it frm Michaels), Shoes & mat (forever young cricut cart) ran thru cuttlebug
