Happy Friday Everyone!! The weekend is here! It will be a very busy one for me as my family and I will going away to visit family. Before I go, however, I have lots of fun to share with you. Today is a new Wags n Whiskers challenge and then tomorrow is our New Release Our Daily Bread Designs Blog Hop!!
This Wags n Whiskers challenge, my dear dt sister Jeanette has the perfect challenge:April Showers bring May Flowers ~ Use flowers on your project.
Here is my take on the challenge:

tear drop lace, ZVA Creative pearls, Spellbinders Rectangle die, corner rounder punch

Hand full of Stamps: use one thing you purchased during the last week (Pearls)
Your Next stamp: Going Dotty
My Grafic0- punch or dies cut
Papertake weekly: do something different (although the card is square, I have never cut off the front so the inside is showing from the front
Spoonful of Sugar: My image is cut out and put on dimensionals (paper tole)
Creative Card Crew: April Showers Bring May Flowers
Stamptacular sundays....sewing and for someone special (birthday card for my niece)
Our Creative Corner- blossoms

Bree, Christa, Debbie, Jeanette, Jacqui, Karen, Lacey, Michelle, Nikki, Sharon, Tina
and our guests for May and June ... Melanie Holtz and Renata van Miltenburg.
Thanks for stopping by and for your comments!! Have a great weekend!!
Since it is Wednesday today it is time for another Flutter By Wednesday!! This one is a sad one for me, however, since it is my last post as a Flutter By Wednesday team member. I have resigned from the team after being on it for a full year to allow others the opportunity to be on the Flutter By Wednesday team. I have so enjoyed the challenges, our super talented and sweet hostess, Danni, and the friendships I have made with the awesome team!!! You girls are so dear and special to me!! Please know I will still be following you all and playing the challenges when time allows. You will be missed!!
Anywho...here is today's challenge....Create a card or project which is Clean and Simple (CAS) and includes a fairy, butterfly, or angel on your creation.
CAS means so many different things to so many different people ...I made a creation using the a sneak peak set from Our Daily Bread Designs called As You Graduate. I thought it was CAS for me. No sewing, no coloring...but it does have several layers and lots of embossing....
So I said last night at 3 a.m. I should really make another. I used the same As You Graduate Stamp set from Our Daily Bread Designs that will be released on May 1. This is CAS cause I was tired and wanted some sleep. I did add some sewing but this card has a lot of white and very little coloring. This to me is CAS. What do you think?
I hope you can join the Flutter By Wednesday Challenge. If you do, please leave a direct link to your creation here. If you upload your creation to SC or PCP, please use the keyword FBW.
For more inspiration for this challenge, please visit my dt sisters: Danni , Michelle , Alex, Ann, Brandi, Christine, Debby, Harriet, Jodi, Karen, Kimberly, Kris, Kristie, Lelia, Nancy, Randi, and Shana.
I hope you have a great day!! Thanks for stopping by and for all your warm comments!! I so enjoy reading them!!
blessings,
Chris

Anywho.... today I have a Stampin Sister's in Christ challenge to share with you. This week's hostess is the ever so sweet and talented Randi.
Randi has chosen the verse: Ex. 20:12 Honor your father and your Mother, that your days may be prolonged in the land which the Lord your God gives you.
I count myself blessed to still have both my parents here to show respect and learn from. I have lost my mother in law but her testimony and faith live on. Each and every one of us who have Christian parents are so blessed to have our parents to guide us even as adults. Soon it will be Mother's Day so this is an appropriate time to thank God for our Mothers. They have a special place in our hearts and lives.
Randi's Challenge is: Make a Mother's Day Card or project for your Mom or someone special you would like to honor this Mother's Day.
Here is my take on the challenge:
For my card I used the Happy Mother's Day set from Our Daily Bread Designs. I tried to give it a touch of elegance with my sewing and embellishing.
Recipe:
Stamps: Our Daily Bread Designs: Happy Mother's Day
Paper: SEI Claire, cs
Embellishments and tools: Spellbinders Lattice Borders, Spellbinders Lotus, pink satin ribbon, silver baubles, pink ZVA creative pearls, cameo roses, Belle Arts Novelty prima roses

Happy Friday Everyone!! The weekend is upon us and Wags n Whiskers is kicking it off with a new challenge. Hopefully you have lots of crafting time to join in the fun! Bree is our host this week and she has created a wonderful Sketch for us to follow!! Rember that there is only 1 rule: You must use a Wags 'n Whiskers image on your project if you would like to be entered into the drawing for the prize!
Here is my take on the sketch:
I just love this adorable image, Just for You. I watercolored it and popped it up on dimensionals. The dp is new SEI Chickadoo paper that I just bought at Michael's. I just love tempting turquoise an brown together. To frame my image I used a Labels 10 die. The flowers are primas from Stamp and Create.

Happy Hump Day Everyone!! I can't believe it is Wednesday already. Wow! Where does the time go!! Today is the day to share another Inky Impressions challenge and a Flutterby Wednesday. They are both fun challenges and perfect for combining.
Flutter by Wednesdays challenge is a sketch created for Flutter By Wednesday by Mercy and to use a butterfly, fairy and/or angel on your creation!! I just love Mercy's sketches!! Should you create something for this challenge, please leave a direct link to Mr. Linky here. If you upload to PCP and Splitcoast, please use the keyword FBW.
The Inky Impressions challenge is a two week challenge due before Midnight on May 3. This week's Inky challenge is a recipe: 3 layers, 2 designer papers, 3 embellishments and a ribbon. I just love how perfect it works with Mercy's sketch!! If you create a card or project using this challenge please a direct link here. You don't need to use an Inky Impressions image for the challenge but if you have them, we would love to see them.
Here is my take on both challenges using the recipe, the sketch, and Lili Rollerskating. I had so much fun paper piecing her with Sassafrass Daisy Dots paper an water coloring her. I did some stitching but limited it due to there mostly being one base layer. I added lots of sparkle on the frame, heart on her shirt and butterflies.
I hope you enjoyed today challenges and you too are inspired to join the fun. For more inspiration, please visit my dt sisters at Flutter By Wednesday for the sketch, butterfly, angel or fairy at these links:Danni , Michelle , Alex, Ann, Brandi, Christine, Debby, Harriet, Jodi, Karen, Kimberly, Kris, Kristie, Lelia, Nancy, Randi, and Shana.

Thanks for stopping by!! I hope you have a great day!! Thanks for your sweet comments. They are truly appreciated!!
Before going on to our sketch this week, I would like to share this week sponsor and prize info:
*************
Here is our sketches:
My take on the sketches:
Today I will be sharing two cards with you using this sketch. One more girly and the other masculine.
This first card is created with one of Chelsea's Gurlee Girl images called Lexi Girl. I used Basic Grey Euphoria paper for my background and for paper piecing her bathing suit. The rest of the image is water colored and popped up on dimensionals. The top beach border uses an EK Success Border punch. The luscious lace and stunning prima flower are from Stamp and Create. Each of the circles are dry embossed with swirls, swiss dots, and Victoria Provo Craft folders.
The second card I would like to share is a masculine card I made for my nephew using the adorable Whimsy Turtle and the Whimsy Circle Postmark sentiment set. I thought since I was fashionably late for his birthday it would be very appropriate to use a SLOW turtle. Isn't he just darling.
I colored my image in with water colors and distressed all the edges on my card. The layout uses today's Midnight Madness Sketch challenge. The dp is Basic Grey Marakech. I added some stitching with some thicker thread to make it more masculine. The colors are inspired by the inspiration at My Grafico Challenge
My Whimsy dt sister, Debbie E. also asked many of us at Whimsy to be guest at today's challenge at Spoon Full of Sugar as well since Whimsy is the sponsor!! What fun!! Today's challenge there was to create a birthday card. This second card is my entry for this challenge. For more inspiration from several of my Whimsy dt sisters for this challenge, please visit: Debbie, Erin, Sue, Ann, Denise, Simonne, Marley and Rowena.

Since today is Sunday, I have a new challenge for you from Stampin Sisters in Christ which is hosted by my sweet dt sister: Candace.
Candace chose the verse: Isaiah 40:8 "The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God stands forever." How true this is...as we go into spring with all the pretty flowers and the green grass, we are reminded that this is temporary for Spring and Summer but when winter comes, they are gone. God's presence and Word is here each and every day and in every circumstance, joy and sorrow. What hope we have in Him!! When others are not there, He is!!
The challenge to accompany this verse this week is: Use flowers on your card or project.
This week's Sponsor is Michelle Perkett. Michelle has so many awesome and fun digitals, check out the Stampin Sister in Christ Challenge for this week's Sponsor prize.
Here is my take on this week's challenge using Lauren Meader's Shutterfly box template, Sing to the Lord image from ODBD, and Friendship from Our Daily Bread Designs. The background is embossed in Victoria and Swiss dots Provo Craft folders. My image was water colored.
For more inspiration, please visit my dt sisters: Candace , Grace , Kathy, Kristine , Linda, Lisa, Peggysue, Randi
If you should create a card or project for this challenge, please leave a direct link here. Should you upload your creation to SC or PCP, please use the keyword SSIC35.
**********************
Card Drive:
This week my Stampin Sister in Christ dt sister, Kristine, learned of a Christian Kindergarten teacher who was in a terrible car accident. She taught her oldest daughter a few years ago. Her name is Cathy Downing.
By the looks of her car afterwards here, it's a miracle that she is alive! Angels were definitely watching over her -- God must still have a plan for her here. *Ü* Her family has set up a page at Caring Bridges network to post updates on how Cathy's doing.
Of course prayers are always appreciated!! But Kristine would love to hold a card drive too. She knows that there are so many caring stampers out there who's beautifully hand-made card can bless someone's life in such a positive way and so we are passing that opportunity on to all of YOU!
If you'd like to send Cathy a card, please email Kristine, to get her address. She will leave it open for the next few weeks and then she and her daughters will pass them on to Miss Cathy. We would greatly appreciate any cards that can be shared to send on to Miss Cathy to encourage her.
Thanks for stopping by and for your sweet comments!! Have a blessed Sunday.
As with all our challenges, we have added more fun to this challenge by having a $15 certificate as a prize (randomly selected) to one challenge participant. Entries must be entered by Thursday night at 8 p.m. for a chance to win. You are not required to use Our Daily Bread Designs stamps but if you have them we would love to see them. If you do create a card or project for this challenge, please use the keyword ODBDSLC10 when uploading to any online galleries and link your creation to Mr. Linky here.
For my creation I used a prima flower container I saved. The image I used is from our
Daily Bread Designs Happy Birthday.
The sentiment is from the Mom set at ODBD. I colored my image is with copics.
I framed the image with my scalloped circles and Lattice pendant spellbinders.
The lace is something I have been hoarding which is now gone. Boo hoo!
The white satin ribbon is from May Arts. There is lace with beads that goes around the
outside of the container.
For more inspiration, please visit my dt sisters:
Well today is Friday so it is time for another Wags n Whiskers Challenge!! This week my oh so talented dt sister and Wags n Whiskers co-owner Lacey is asking you to:
Use Ribbon on your card or paper project
How easy it that? ..... so no excuses not to play along with us!
To play our challenges you must use a Wags 'n Whiskers Rubber Stamp.... or...... Digi as your main image to be entered into the prize drawing.
If you don't have any Wags 'n Whiskers, then it's time to go shopping. You can pick up your rubber here.... or for those who like almost instant gratification.... Digi's HERE.
Here is my take on the challenge!! Since there are so many challenges out there with April Showers bring May flowers, I thought I would use the darling Love You Sis image from Wags n Whiskers illustrated by Crissy Armstrong. For some extra fun, I decided to paper piece it with some of my fave Basic Grey Paper Lily Kate!! This image is very appropriate for today's weather! LOL!The yummy flowers are available at Lacey's Stamp and create store here (Lemon trellis big rose) and here (Smaller rose).
