This is for today's FEATURED STAMPER CHALLENGE # 160 - AngelaCrocket. I found inspiration in 2 ways from several of her cards but especially in her GOD BLESS YOU. I loved the way she layered the circle with Nestie Labels 4 and I never use Kraft unless it is in a color challenge. I love the color in MIKI ANDO's COSTUME so I used it for Saturday's INSPIRATION CHALLENGE # 221 - Ice Skating Costumes. My layout is from today's SUNDAY SKETCH & STAMP # 22. I attached the circle to the Nestie Label 4 then popped that up on the next layered Label 4. I punched some slots from one of my punches to use as cat tails for Monday's TECHNIQUE LOVERS CHALLENGE # 261 - Its In The Pieces. My focal image is one I just got from Sugar Nellie called To Catch A Big Fish. He is soo cute and all I could think about while I was coloring was Brayden with his blonde hair although his is straight not curly but he sure loves to fish with his Papa. My image was stamped in graphite black and colored with copics. I used my brand new Martha Stewart grass border punch. Friday challenge brought something really new to SCS. No more Limited Supply Challenges. I just had to do another one for FREE 4 ALL # 1 - Textures, Colors & Patterns. I used my cuttlebug Herringbone embossing folder on the Kraft panel. My pattern paper is from My Minds Eye that I just bought Sat on a shopping excursion with Shannon. This will be for Brayed on his 7th birthday later this year. I adore how this turned out and hope you do too.

Bling It On with Easter Lillies
Well it's Thursday again and that means time for another great challenge from TREEHOUSE THURSDAY CHALLENGE. This week is being hosted by Gloria Morezen. I love Gloria choice for this week. She has challenged us to BLING IT ON! What does that mean? That means to make it shine, shimmer, and sparkle. I used my favorite shine and sparkle, Stickles and gems. Today is also special because Ashley has decided to release March images a bit early for the Easter holiday. This month she has some fantastic and adorable flower images. This is just one of them. Hop over to the TREEHOUSE STAMPS STORE and look under NEW or Digital Images. My image was printed on white paper then colored with copics seen here. After coloring and matting I applied stickles to the flowers and around the large scallop Nestie layer. My dp used is from Basic Gray called Ambrosia. I picked these sheet with these colors for more reasons than one but you know if there is a challenge I am all over it so last Thursday's WAYS TO USE IT CHALLENGE # 258 was ORANGE. Well I think I have that one covered. Love these colors in this pack and guess what? These are the colors for this spring : Gray, yellow, orange, and turquoise. Have you been looking at clothes yet? That is what you will find. I am not complaining though bc I love yellow and orange. My layout is from MERCY'S TUESDAY SKETCH CHALLENGE # 61. Check out what the rest of the design team has created for you over at the TREEHOUSE STAMPS BLOG then go shopping over at the store for some of these fantastic digital sets available now.

No metal today. I punched some red cs using my Fiskars scallop oval then punched the throw away part with a straight edged oval making an umbrella and hand drew my lines then popped it up on dimensionals. So this is also for Monday's TECHNIQUE LOVERS CHALLENGE # 261 - It's In The Pieces. That was fun. My focal image and senitment are digitals that will be available Thursday, Feb 25th from TREEHOUSE STAMPS DIGITAL LINE. Ashley has been very busy creating. I colored my focal image using copics B41, C1, C7, R24, R27, R29, Y000, Y00, Y02, & YR16. Have I mentioned lately how much I LOVE MY COPICS!! LOL. I sponged some dark clouds on the top of my focal panel using brocade blue and bashful blue ink pads and a scallop punch of paper then trimmed both panels with brocade blue cs. I applied crystal effects to the raindrops and the puddle of water. I used some green cs and Basic Gray June Bug dp for Panels 1 and 2. I hope you like it bc I had fun making it.

Stars & Showers Sneak Peek
This is for today's TECHNIQUE LOVERS CHALLENGE # 261 - It's In The Pieces. I used my round tab punch for a diaper as shown in the display boards. I did not have any small gem clips and so I found the smallest diaper pins I had. I have to pick up some smaller ones. I love the diaper idea. Just too cute. WOW Merideth, those are fantastic. My dp is Provo Craft and although it looks blue it is really teal colored. My focal image is a digital image from Stars & Showers set that will be released this Thursday from TREEHOUSE STAMPS DIGITAL LINE. It is such a darling image I could not resist using it. I colored in the stars with my white jel pen so that when I sponged they would stay white. Then I sponged with sage shadow and bermuda bay although it looks green. I hope this is not going to be a backwards day. LOL. I colored my image with copics E50, E51, BG11, BG13, BG15, Y11, Y13, and Y15. Hope you like it.

Spring Bouquet Sympathy Sneak Peek
This is for today's FEATURED STAMPER - JovialJudi. I chose Judi's DAFFODIL CARD to CASE. I changed the flower image, layout and colors and I just realized I forgot to add the little gems that were just so cute. Oh well, I will add them and just image that they are there. I love making cards but sympathy cards are by far the hardest to make when they are made specifically for someone. Usually I have a stack to pick from but today I wanted to make one special for a special stampin' friend, Lori McAree is laying her father to rest and my heart goes out to her. I was 1st introduced to Lori as a design team member for Treehouse Stamps then Shannon and I got the chance to meet her in person at Summer CHA last yeart in Orlando. She is a complete "LOVABLE NUT".
Onto my card that will go in the mail early tomorrow. My layout is from Friday's GET SKETCHY # 26. I used Brilliant blue pattern paper and card stock. My image is a digital image to be released Thursday from TREEHOUSE STAMPS DIGITAL LINE. I colored my flower with Copics. My focal panel was trimmed and embossed with Nestie Large Oval and matted with a trimmed and embossed Nestie Label 9 in brilliant blue. The sentiment I created to go along with the image and theme of sympathy. Hope you like it and I hope it brings comfort to Lori.

Teddy & Train Baby Frame
This is for today's SKETCH CHALLENGE # 268 and Tuesday's COLOR CHALLENGE # 258 - Soft Perfect Plums. I am ashamed to admit how long I have had this set and NEVER even inked it up :-( bad stamper, bad stamper.. Well today was it's lucky day. I needed small images for panels 5 and 6 and these are perfect as well as the train image for the rectangle panel 4. All images were inked with graphite black then colored with copics. The sentiment in panel 6 was inked with perfect plum although it looks like black, such a dark color. Anyway, I am thinking of putting this in a frame with a baby's name on it for a baby shower gift. Hope whoever get's it will like it.

FS158 Eskimo Kisses
This is for today's FEATURED STAMPER # 158 - Hamilton Gal. I found my inspiration from Laurie's precious BABY CONGRATS. I loved the simple layout and needed that for today. Gotta get on the road to Olustee battle early this morning. I kept the layout and changed the colors and theme and placed a brad in each corner rather than 2 together on one side. My image is from Sweet N Sassy's Eskimo Kisses stamp set I recently purchased. My dp is Basic Gray Sugar Rush pack. I pulled the colors from the dp to color my images using copic markers. My focal image was trimmed with a Nestability but I can not remember the name of it :-( Old timmers kickin' in. LOL. It is also popped up on dimensionals. I will be back tonight to leave some luvin' in the comment area. Have a fabulous Sunday and pray I don't freeze to death. Brrr it is still so cold down her in the deep south.

Sweet Talk Gift Set for DH
This is for today's SKETCH CHALLENGE # 267. Whoo Hoo Roxy is back. Thanks for an easy one this morning Roxy since I have an early class and test today. A couple of yrs ago Shannon and I were playing one day and she made a sheet of Valentine dp using this darling set. Today I made another one and used it for a wrapper for the box of Milk Duds and the rest for the card to go with it.
I will give this to my DH on his way out the door Friday to go camping. He will be bachin' it this year. I am NOT camping in 26 degree night temps as much as I love the event of Olustee. LOL. Plus if he takes it with him I don't have to hear him eat those nasty things. Man he can make some noise when that caramel gets stuck between his top on bottom teeth. He is NOT allowed to get them when we go to the movies. LOL. Anyway I hope he likes the card cause I know he will love the candy.

I love this darling bunny and decided he needed to be a chocolate bunny, yum yum. After coloring I trimmed my vellum and cs layers with Labels # 7 from my stock of Nestabilities. I adhered the white layer to my dusty durango and then hand trimmed around it for a mat layer. I have the vellum raised up with tiny circle dimensionals and that is covered by the crystal jems.

Eskimo Kisses
This is for today's COLOR CHALLENGEE # 235 - Crushed Gray Burgandays. My layout is from today's MERCY'S TUESDAY SKETCH CHALLENGE # 59. I love this layout Mercy. Well I just got my order from Sweet-N-Sassy and had to get these little darlings dirty as fast as possible and today was the day. This set is called Eskimo Kisses. My image was inked in graphite black then colored with copics C1, C3, C7, E34, E35, E37, E50, E51, E53, R85, R89, Y23, and Y26. I stamped the sentiment in bravo burgandy on crushed curry cs. The dp is from TREEHOUSE STAMPS and is also called Eskimo Kisses.
