Color Me Creative Challenge

Hey peeps.  It's time for another challenge over at Color Me Creative.  You have free range with your card.  The challenge is an anything goes so let's start 2014 off  with some coloring and card making!! I used this adorable bachelorette image from Kenny K.  I've had this image FORVER.  I love the look on her face.  PRICELESS!!!!  I followed the sketch layout over at Sketch N Stash for this card.  I'm crafting from my sisters home so I don't have all of my craft supplies with me.  What a nightmare at the airport for the items I did bring.  My luggage was a little over and they charged with an additional $200 to get my bags on the damn plane!!  One was two pounds over and the other one four pounds.  I had no choice but to pay since I couldn't just let me stuff go in the trash.  GRRRRR...I was not happy!  Lesson learned as I will be mailing back all of my stamping stuff along with some clothes so I will not be paying that ridiculous fee to get back home.

Okay, enough of my complaining.  I'm entering my card into the Sketch N Stash and Kenny K challenges.  I hope everyone has stepped into 2014 healthy and blessed.  Can't wait to see what you create.

Hugs and love~

Party Time Tuesdays Challenge #68

Hey peeps.  So glad to see ya back.  Another fun challenge coming your way from Party Time Tuesdays.  This week's challenge is to use the colors on purple on your card.  Since I had a boy image I used a very deep purple to keep the card from looking too girlie.  Can't put on a whole bunch of sparkle on a soccer guy.  LOL  This week's image is from Kenny K and they are also one of our sponsors this week.  As you already know I'm a huge fan of Kenny K images.

Now for some color inspiration.  Here are a few "purple" inspirations for you.  I love all these colors.  So let's see what you can do. Make sure to link up your creation before the next challenge on May 22nd.

Hugs and love~

Jammin' with Kenny K

Mornin' peeps.  Hope everyone is having a great MONDAY.  I know, I already wish is was Friday. :-)  Anyway, I have a card for you.  Jumped in on the chance to play along with Kenny K Girlz challenge.  It was to showcase a fun/game card.  While my card is jamming out to some Zumba music.  I love Zumba and I think it's a great way to exercise and get your "groove" on at the same time. 

Well hope you like my little piece today and I hope to see ya back here soon.

Kenny K and Raise the Bar Challenges

Okay so I have a weird sense of humor for a Mother's Day card.  My Mom can take a good joke every now and then so I thought I would send her this card for Mother's Day.  Awww...so sentimental.  I put the image on shamrock paper as a reference to "good luck" with getting a good rest home.  LMBO.  This image by Kenny K reminds me so much of my daughter with her little waist and hip self.  Oh to be young again.  I know my Mom will get a kick out of this image too.  I've had this sentiment forever and I finally organized my sentiments stamps (700+ and still counting) and it made me giggle.  I'm adding this one to the Kenny K Challenge to make "Mother's Day" cards with green and to the Raise the Bar challenge to use four-leaf clovers.  I sure do hope everyone has a sense of humor.  Thanks for swinging by and hope to see ya again real soon!

Hugs and love~

Kenny K Challenge #63

Hey peeps.  I hope everyone has had a wonderful week thus far.  Mine is going GREAT.  Wanted to quickly show you a card that I'm submitting into this week's challenge at Kenny K Krafty Girlz.   The challenge was to use more than one girl and a die cut on your card.  I love these two images from KK so I colored them up with my Copic markers to match this awesome red and brown paper I had and couldn't wait to use.  Only used my R17, R46, E57, E47 with a hint of E49 along with my standard E13, E11, E00 markers to color my image to match the paper.  See not a lot of markers for such a cool card. :-) I think they came out super cute.  Remember you can find some great tips on coloring with Copics over at the Color Me Creative Classroom.  I'm learning so much as being a member of this team.  You should come check us out. 

Well I'm taking it down for the night.  Workie, workie comes so early in the morning.  Sending hugs out to my peeps.  Make sure you come back and see me soon.  I'll be waiting!

Hugs and much love~

Club Kid

Morning everyone.  Glad you're back today.  Wanted to show you a card I made for several challenges.  As you may already know, I am always coloring up images and saving them for future challenges.  This is one of my favorite images from Kenny K.  Her name is Club Kid.  I'm way passed my days of hanging out at the club but she reminds me of my "youth".  LOL  So today I'm entering my card into the My Favorite Kenny K challenge along with this week's Tuesday Throwdown (fall card) and Splitcoaststampers (color) challenges.  Whew, that was a mouth full. 

I hope you like my little creation today.  And if you haven't seen Carole's CCC for this month, hop on over to Your Next Stamp for some entertainment and all the details.  Also you'll have a chance to get your hands on some goodies.

Hugs and happy stamping~

Doing the Humpty Hump!!!

I'm doing the humpty dance.  That's right it's hump day baby.  Well, really my hump day is just about over.  So I'm really sliding into Thirsty Thursday. :-)  Had a chance to get into my stamp room and come up with a card for the Kenny K and Tuesday Throwdown challenges.  I just love having an image and paper already coordinated.  Had this sitting in my folder waiting for a card.  Perfect!!  All I had to do was cut up the layers, add some details and viola....a card!!

Thanks for swinging by tonight.  Time to scope out You Tube for some funny videos so share with co-workers.  How do we say it ladies...."sweet baby, sweet baby, sweet baby".  LOL

Hugs and happy stamping~

Summer Fun with a Featured Stamper

Howdy y'all.  Ready for some of the wild, wild west?!?  Okay, I'm not into the whole rodeo thing but I wanted to showcase some summer fun for the Kenny K Krafty Girlz Challenge. I think the image named Cheyenne could make it in the wild, wild west.   I'm not the one to get on the back of a pissed-off bull for the entertainment of others.  Sorry, I just don't roll like that.  LOL I'm also joining in on the fun at SCS with this week's featured stamper Joy aka Daiseyfreak. Congrats girlie.

Got to run y'all.  But glad you stopped by.  Make sure you come back because I have a world wind of stuff to show you.

Hugs and happy stamping~

Kenny K Anniversary with a Sketch Saturday Flair

Hey Kenny K is one year old!!  It has been a blast following their blog and participating in the challenges. I am a huge fan of Kenny K images so I wanted to dedicate my card to all the groovy people that put their heart and soul into these wonderful  images.

My groovy dude is pumping up the jams this week at the Sketch Saturday challenge.  Oh yes, he ROCKS!!  He so reminds me of this reggae guy I met several years ago at a block party.  The music was great and we were jamming to his guitar.

Speaking of jamming to some beats. I need to load up my IPod with some music to travel with.  Can't go on a road trip with the tunes.  Check you guys out later.


Hugs and happy stamping!!

Second Posting - KKKG #51

I'm back for a second challenge today.  I just had to play along in the Kenny K Krafty Girlz Challenge.  The challenge was to use red, white and blue.  I had the biker image from Kenny K for a while and had not colored in the clothing.  Well today my biker is roaming the street of Georgia celebrating his independence.  With the 4th of July just around the corner, it's a great time to say thank you to our troops for keeping us free.  So ride on fella and enjoy your independence.

See ya back here soon.

Super Mojo with Girlie Green Doodles

Thanks for swinging by today.  See ya soon!

Second Posting: Copic Creations Anniversary

Second posting for today.  I just happened to hop over to the Copic Creations blog and realize it was their second anniversary.  I just had to join in on the fun. I already had my Kenny K Super Mom image colored so I chose to just do her dress and apron in the distressed Copic ink look.  You can't really see the light shades of violet and red-violet that I used but it is there IFL.  As they always say....practice makes perfect. 

 Here are the colors I used:

They have a ton of candy to give away so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I might be the lucky winner of some of that candy.  Wish me luck!

 Hugs~

FS226

Hey everyone.  Had a chance to participate in today's SCS Featured Stampers challenge.  Taylor has an AMAZING gallery.  It was so hard for me to pick a card.  There were soooo many cards to case.  Congrats Taylor and enjoy your week.

I'm off to start my first COUPON BINDER.  Yep, I've gotten the coupon bug.  My co-workers have been doing it now for a month or so and each week we try to see who can save the most.  So much fun.  If you are interested in starting a coupon binder here's the link to Tipnut on how to get my coupon organizer started.

Go forth and save, but stamp first.  LOL

Kenny K Challenge #46

Hey peeps!!  So glad you stopped by today.  It's been a long week and I wanted to make sure I got a card done for the Kenny K Challenge.  The challenge was to make a white card.  Super easy right?  Not really.  I kept wanting to add color to the background.  But I held off.  I already had the All That image colored so I just needed to pop her up on a card.  That was the easy part.  LOL

I'm off to go do a little more stamping. Hopefully today will be a nice and easy ride!!  Come back soon.

Hugs~

They Say It's Your Birthday....

Well, it's my birthday too!!  LOL  It's my birthday and my twin and I are celebrating.  Even though we can't be together today we always celebrate in spirit.  She doesn't know it but she's getting sunflowers and chocolate covered strawberries today.  And I got COPIC MARKERS!  Got to love the birthday choices.  Well, since it's a special day I participated in several challenges with this card.  This image so reminds me of my daughter.  She is ALWAYS wearing a hat titled to the side.  Oh, if I can only get that child in some heels.  LOL  This image is from Kenny K Girlz and she's called Brooklyn Babe.  I know my daughter will appreciate that since we are from right across the bridge in New Jersey.  I'm entering my card into the following challenges:


Kenny K Krafty Girlz Challenge #36 (Lace, Ribbons and Bows)
Shelly's Images Blog (Everything Goes)
Eat, Sleep, Stamp (Circle)
Delightful Sketches (Show Us Something Green)

WOW....I think that is a record!  Thanks everyone for stopping by today and I hope to see you soon.

Paper Sundaes Challenge

Hi everyone.  Thanks for stopping by today.  I finally had a chance to participate in this weeks Paper Sundaes challenge.  This week the ladies are asking us to keep it simple.  That's my favorite type of card.  LOL  I used my Kenny K Skate Girl image and colored her up with my Copic makers (E11, E15, E27, E33, E37, E47, B00, B02, B04, Y04, Y13, R22, C01, C03).  I made the sidewalk with my C05, C03 and my black liner. The sky is done with SU Soft Sky and a sponge.  I had
such a fun time coloring this image.

I hope you like my little creation for today.  Now it's time to get into your stamp room and be creative.  See ya back here soon.

Holiday Raven

Watch out.....this girls been naughty Santa.  LOL  Hi everyone.  Lady Raven is definately on Santa's naughty list this year.  I mean , just look at them boots.  There is no way she could of been good wearing those boots.  :-)  I so wanted to get this lady on a card and what better way then to participate in this week's Kenny K's Krafty Girlz Challenge.  You have to check out what the DT members came up with on this challenge.  Fabulous cards. So I just had to join in on the fun.

I don't think this card will go out with the "ordinary" cards this year.  But I think my sister will love to give it to her boyfriend. I can't wait to see the look on his face.  ;-)  Oh, what a crafty girl I am. 

Hope you liked my card and I hope you come back and visit soon.

Kenny K Challenge - 2nd Post

Okay, I really need to get out of my stamp room and feed the family but I just had to do the Kenny K's Krafty Girlz Challenge today.  I'm just in love with these images.  Since I already had her colored it was pretty easy to do the sketch.  I always find time to color images and match them with paper so when I want to do a challenge or sketch half the work is already done.  Makes things so much quicker. :-)

Okay, I'm off to feed the family.  I know they are probably thinking....is she cooking TONIGHT!  Nope, I'm ordering sushi. LOL

Exciting News and a YNS Challenge

Hey everyone.  I have some exciting news to share.  I won my very first on-line card challenge.  Woo hoo!!! I posted a card for the Gina K Stamptv x-mas card challenge last week and actually won!!  I'm so humbled and honored to have been chosen as last weeks winner. 

So with that being said I'm on to my next challenge of many in the coming days.  Today I'm entering the Your Next Stamp Challenge.  The challenge is to make an easel card.  Oh, how I love easel cards.  I had this super hip chick from Kenny K stamp called All That already colored and waiting for a card.  The sentiment is from One Hip Chick stamp set from The Stamping Studio.  It went perfect with this image.

I have a few more cards to make today so I better get back to stamping.  Wish me luck on this challenge.

Hugs~
