Tuesday Morning Sketches #57

Good Morning!  Even though I haven't done this in awhile, I still enjoy making cards for my Mom's blog.  I haven't been doing this because I've been busy with school and other things.  But maybe I'm hoping that I'll be able to keep up with my blog in September.  Wish me luck!  Anyway, well here's my card.  I worked very hard on it.  I hope you enjoy this.

I really like the image, though cutting it out was rather challenging.  I used my 2nd favorite color combo:  yellow, blue, green and gray.  Kind of a long combination but it's still pretty.  I mainly used Copics instead of using my own markers.  I like the Copics better because they have shade by shade of pretty much every color.  Shading is pretty fun, too, giving it shadow and dimension is also very cool.

I hope you enjoy my card and all the Tuesday Morning Sketches cards.

Tuesday Morning Sketches #54

Morning everyone!  We have another great sketch over at Tuesday Morning Sketches for you to play with and we also have a super sponsor called Deedee's Digis.

So here's my card...

I enjoyed making this, I did have a little trouble deciding on what to do for the scallop underneath my image.  Other than that my card was pretty fun to make.  Especially when my little brother joined me.

Levi wanted to make a Christmas card with a digi that I had on my craft table.  He had a lot of fun making it but he needed some help.  He got the idea of putting snowflakes on the sentiment when we were trying to use the snowflake border punch.  The punch part didn't work out but the snowflakes look good.  He saw snowflakes pop out from the bottom of the punch and he came up with a great idea.  I also think it's cute that he put a snowflake at the hippos ear - like Niecy on Clean House.

I hope you join us at Tuesday Morning Sketches.  Thank you for stopping by.

Tuesday Morning Sketches 1st Birthday! Week 4

Hi Everyone!  Hollyanne's mom here... She's still sleeping so I thought I'd get her post up, but she'll be by here later to fix it all up so this is in her own words.

This is the last week of the Tuesday Morning Sketches month long celebration.  We're still using our favorite past sketches but with an added twist.  We're also using a Christmas theme!  So here's Hollyanne's card and, like I said, she'll be by here to tell you about it.

Tuesday Morning Sketches 1st Birthday! Week 2

Hi Everyone,

I am posting for Hollyanne.  She's busy visiting with her cousin, so I said I'd get this done.  Actually she and her cousin Allison made cards to share with you.

This is Hollyanne's card.  She used an image called Miami from Inktegrity and did a fabulous job with it!!  She used sketch TMS #45.

And this is her cousin Allison's card.  This is the first time she's ever made a card.  Allison is about 2 1/2 months older than Hollyanne and they've been two peas in pod since getting together on Saturday.  She used sketch TMS #52.

Thank you for stopping by and leaving the girls sweet comments!

Mom for

Tuesday Morning Sketches 1st Birthday!

I'm baaack!  I made a card just in time for Tuesday Morning Sketches, I just made it today - this is my first card in weeks!  I missed making cards with my Mom and showing them to you.  I hope you enjoy my card.  Happy Birthday TMS.

Please be sure to join us for a month long celebration with a lot of fun, prizes and blog candy.  And next month I will most likely be making hosting my own challenge blog, so be sure to check back for that.

Raise the Bar Guest Designer!

Good Morning!

             I was so excited when I got my Guest Designer spot on Raise the Bar challenge blog.  I really like the sketch that Miss Joni gave me to do.  I really enjoyed it!  I did bright colors because my mom told me Miss Joni likes orange, so that led me to use bright colors.  I found this really funky paper in my mom's stash - it's really cool!!

Well, I hope you enjoy my card.  I want to thank Miss Joni for allowing me to be a Guest Designer.  Thank you for stopping by! See ya

Tuesday Morning Sketches #47

Good morning!  It's another Tuesday so it's time for Tuesday Morning Sketches.  My mom bought me this image from our sponsor Meljen's Designs and I think this turtle is soooo cute.  Here's my card.....

I colored the turtle using Prismacolor markers and used this really cool paper that was two sided.  I cut out the turtle and put him on the base with pop-dots.  I think I did really good using all the colors in the paper, too.  I hope you like my card and I hope you join us at Tuesday Morning Sketches - all ages are welcome.

Thanks for stopping by!
