New Challenge at Lia Stampz - Anything Goes!

It's everyone's favorite challenge over at Lia Stampz! This month is Anything Goes! Come head on over and play with us! 

Here is my project:

The image is called Tree of Hearts and is our prize for the random winner this fortnight! I colored it with Copics.  I sponged the sky background with some SU ink.  I added Stickles to the clouds.  I used some retired SU paper, sentiment, and pleated ribbon. 

Can't wait to see what you guys create!

New Challenge at Scribbles Designs!

We've got a new challenge over at Scribbles Designs!  This month, we want to see your projects with a pen/pencils/paper theme! Here's my project:

The image is called Artsy.  I colored it with my Copic markers. I stamped some splatter using the SU Gorgeous Grunge stamp set.  The sentiment is an retired SU stamp.  One little red brad finishes the sentiment off. 

You don't need a Scribbles image to play, but if you do use a Scribbles image, however, you can enter as many times as you wish.  Go here to play with us!

Wanna get the sentiment digi or any other of Scribble's designs? Check out the Scribbles Designs store! 

Can't wait to see what you guys create!

Surprise Birthday Blog Hop for Sandy!

Welcome to the Surprise Birthday Blog Hop for Sandy!!! 

Sandy is having a birthday today!  What better way to celebrate our fearless leader's birthday than with a crafty (surprise) hop!?  Every stop along the way has a surprise birthday project for Sandy created by each of her design team members.  Sandy is such an inspiration to all of us and she has been so supportive and generous. She's a great friend and a very talented and artistic woman! 

I absolutely love Scribbles Designs images.  I was so excited when Sandy told me that she was going to start it and round up a design team.  So happy and honored that I'm with her and on her team!  

Happy Birthday, Sandy!

Here is my project for Sandy:

I used her digi called Sundae.  Inked it up simply with Copics.  Did a whole white-on-white motif and added some polka dot red ribbon, stitching, rhinestones, and stamp from Stampin Up!

Next head on over to DEANNE'S blog for the next project!

Here's the line up, in case you get lost (Make sure your last stop is SANDY so you can wish her a happy birthday!):
