Lasting Memories #154

GOOD MORNING!!!

It's Sunday so that means it's time for a new challenge at 

LASTING MEMORIES!

The challenge is to try something new!

There is alot of new things (for me) on this LO!

First and foremost is, I made my own Background, this started out being a winter white embossed piece of DP but I used a piece of lace and glimmer mist. COOL STUFF! I colored on my diecuts (self made using SU in the bigshot) with prisma colored pencils on patterned paper but they looked to new for my pic, so I wadded it up. (Boy did that make me nervous! See Claire, I'm always afraid I'm going to mess it up at the end! LOL! I sprayed my paper lace doily with glimmer mist also All th diecuts are from SU! Bling and the frame is from my stash.

DSC #50 'Summertime Colors' w/Lacy Sunshine

It's Friday again so time for a new challenge at Digitally Sweet and we are being sponsored by the Fantastic Lacy Sunshine Stamps.

I made a LO using Lacy Sunshine's 'Pearl Sea Kissed'

I used MDS2 and I had alot of fun coloring her in Paintbrush! Heather draws her hair in sections so it was easy to add highlights!

All the rest of the elements are from MDS2 except the pics of course!

Lacy Sunshine #15

It's all about the GIRLS this challenge at Lacy Sunshine.

I used to use decorative scissors to cut out my photos and lots of stickers!

    That's me dressed up as a cat. Back then I used 8.5 x 11 papers only and I always forgot to put the very important date on them, so it must of been in 1987.

Here's my new (I do alot of digital now!)

Digital was basically unheard of back then!

These are 2011-2013 of my doggies!

Lacy Sunshine #14

I immediately thought of my BEAUTIFUL Ringo when I saw this BEAUTIFUL digi! Our challenge at Lacy Sunshine Challenges is called Favorite Things, I made a LO of my beautiful Ringo!

I used this Beautiful digi from Lacy Sunshine called 'Dorina & Bardolph.' 

ISN'T SHE A BEAUTY?!

Colored her with prisma colored pencils and added stickle's in some places. Cut them out with grand nestabilities.

I made what I think looks kinda like collars with a punch from my stash that looks like a buckle. I did the journaling on WORD.

Found these pics while spring cleaning!

GOOD MORNING!!!

It's time for a new challenge at Digitally Sweet!

We are being sponsored by Cedar Chest Designs.

I chose the digi 'Genie'

I colored her and removed the background in Paintbrush. 

I didn't have a bottle in my software so I used a Happy Hour Glass. I used an embellie to act as a lid and added flourishes to act as smoke like 'I Dream Of Jeannie'!

My software is MDS2 from Stampin' Up

CWLC #52

This is Created With Love's first anniversary! WOOHOO!

They are celebrating it with a Bloghop! It's everyone's fav!

ANYTHING GOES!

So here is my entry (That I won BTW) using a Delicious Doodles image,

'Fae'

She is such a beauty, I wanted her to be the main focal point of my card. I colored her with copic markers and I colored the butterflies with prisma colored pencils. I printed her out twice so I could cut out the butterflies and I used a Stampin' Up butterfly punch. (A little dimension)

OK, I had to add stickles

Digi Darla #74

It sure was fun seeing all those 'Copy Cats' but now Digi Darla has a new challenge for us!

It's get inspired by ice cream colors!

Mine was Neapolitan using DD "A Cup Of Heart Chocolate'. I colored my image with prisma colored pencils. I used a doily die cut from SU and a spellbinders grand nestabilities round die. My little tag is a punch from SU as well.

Digitally Sweet #47

We have a new challenge at Digitally Sweet and it's everyone's favorite!

'ANYTHING GOES' 

The wonderful Digi Darla is sponsoring us this week!

I made a LO using 'Kitty Face'

This was quite challenging to digitally color.

First I removed the background and then used the airbrush to add hints of color except for the eyes. MDS2 and paintbrush helped me.
