Exciting News and Dots and Stripes!

Hellllllllo Bloggie friends! I hope everybody had a wonderful Mother's Day yesterday. Mine was pretty darn nice, didn't do much but that  is exactly what I wanted!  I had a pretty nice lunch with my mother, father, brother and sister and their families. Came home and vegged a little. Then did dinner with in the in-laws.  My daughter made me a beautiful crown....and yes I wore it in the restaurant. How could I not? 

I do have some exciting news. I was asked to join the girls over at the Ribbon Carousel. I seriously think I may be in trouble because these girls are a rare breed of donkeys. No kidding!!! I can't wait to work with them all, they are all a hoot. So I was so excited about being asked to join that I hopped onto my blog and I was going to add the "crew" badge and what do you know, I was OUT OF SPACE! Yay...NOT COOL!!! I was freakin' out. I'm like, seriously??? So there I go googling how to get space and/or delete pictures from blogger. It took me a little while, but I figured it out. I know have space back...thank goodness. However, I had to delete alot of pictures from some of my old post. I tried only deleting the "artsy fartsy" shots. You know the ones that are at an angle...etc! :-) So all is right in the world now...thank goodness!

Todays card is for the La-La Land challenge. I only have 2 more weeks as GDT. :-( This weeks challenge is "Dots and Stripes". I used Travel Marci and the NEW Street Lamp DIE from La-La Land. You read that correctly. La-La Land Crafts is now doing their own Dies and they are beautiful. They cut so well too. No probably popping the cardstock out at all!


The paper is from the Vintage Marketplace by Bazzill.Paper 6x6 paper pad. I printed out a qoute from my computer. The pink twill ribbon is from Ribbon Carousel...

So come on over and add your cards to the Customer Gallery!

Frame It - La La Land

Good morning!  I hope everybody had a great weekend! I know I did. I took a couple extra days off (friday and today) because I just needed a mental break!  Lots going on and I needed a time out!  I was even a bad (or good depends on how you look at it) mommy and let the kids play hookie from school on Friday. We had lunch then spent the day at the pool. It was gorgeous out and I really needed some sun!! I also made a pinterest inspired dinner for my brother, sister and their families.  The rest of the weekend we kind just hung out and watched a few movies, I colored a little...it was just nice.  Back to the grind tomorrow though ;(
Today is Challenge day at La-La Land Crafts. This weeks challenge is to "Frame it". So take that I do whatever inspires you to frame it. I had a couple ideas from actually framing a piece or having the image on the inside of the card framing it with the outside of the card. I ended up going for my little one in a frame. I have had this spellbinder forever and had never used it, so I was kinda glad to get to.

The ruffles on Ruffles Marci were also pinterest inspired!! I saw the CUTEST ruffled apron done in rainbow colors on pinterest a few days ago and I thought of Ruffles Marci. So of course I had to replicate it!!


Red: R20, R22, R24
Yellow: Y11, Y15
Green: G40, G43, G46
Blue: B91, B12, B14
Hair: E50, E51, E53, E33
Ground: E40, E42, E43
Outline: B000
Skin: E000, E00, E11, R20


So if you would like to join us, come by the La-La Land Crafts Blog and add your photo to the Customer gallery!!

Superstar!

Morning all! Short and sweet today as I am just not up to a long post today. Had a rough couple of days ;-((

I mentioned last week I am a Guest Designer for La La Land Crafts for the month of April and May. This weeks challenge is "Unusual Haircolor". As you can see, my little Cheeky Monkey has some vibrant green hair!

I love the sock monkey hat on her. My mom has always had a thing for sock monkeys so now I do as well.  My mother use to make them years ago. You could easily find the socks all over back then. Now you have to order them and they are made specifically for sock monkeys. Just not the same too me!!!

I masked Cheeky Monkey on top of the brick wall and stamped some clouds randomly on the page. She was colored up completely in copic markers. Here is my list:

Hair: YG11, YG13, YG17
Monkey/Shoes: E40, E42, E43, E44
Red: R20, R22, R24
Black: C3, C5, C7
Shirt: R20, R22, R24
Skirt: B00, B01, B02, B04
Brick Wall: R01, R02, E04, E40
Grass: YG61, YG63, YG67
Clouds: C00, C1, C2
Sky: B000, B0000
Skin: E000, E00, E11, R20

Exciting News!!


So guess who is a guest designer for La La Land Crafts for the next 2 months???? Yep, ME! ;-)  I was very excited when I was asked...thanks Rosie!  

This weeks challenge at La La Land Crafts is to RECYCLE! I had a shirt that had a belt made from ribbon. I got rid of the shirt awhile back ago but I kept the ribbon belt. It was a thick black satin piece of ribbon, I figured it would get used at some point!  When I saw the theme this week was to "Recycle" I thought that ribbon would be perfect.




Today I used Easter Marci . As I said before the ribbon is recycled from a shirt I had. The paper is from Crate Paper. Sorry about the photo. I took it outside, but I think it was almost TO sunny! Go figure! 

The copic colors I used are as follows:
Hair: E50, E51, E53


Yellow: Y00, Y11, Y15, E31, E30, E33

Dress: YR61, YR65, YR68

Basket: E42, E43, E44

Eggs: RV10, R83, YG11, YG17, B01,B04

Sky: B000, B0000

Grass: YG61, YG63, YG67

You can see the other DT's Creations on the La La Land Crafts Blog.  If you join us in the challenge, which we hope that you do, be sure to upload your card/project to our Customer Gallery.

Hugs,
