Spring Chick!

 Good, good morning!
Another week is flying by even though
we are not leaving our house
and miss our family and friends like crazy!
However, being at home we are sure getting some
cleaning done and going through stuff we have put off.
Although my crafting time is a little more,
I am hoping in the near future that it will
be in full swing, after we get my new craft room painted
and everything moved and organized.

challenge up today.
It being Thursday we are starting a new challenge #343 - Anything Goes
with a brand new sponsor Fabrika Fantasy
Prize: 3 Images
Thank you so much for letting me color up this very cute 
image called Spring Chick
lot's of little details to color but oh so much fun.
The ideas are flowing and I think making a scene
with this image would be incredible.
As a sentiment I can really see 
"Keep Calm and Ride On" Hee hee. 
This card is made for my
awesome little grandson, although his birthday is
months away, I couldn't resist coloring up this image for him.
The above image was colored using Copic Markers
Gina Marie Designs dies, Sizzix embossing folder
and Stampin' Up paper.

I would really love it if you shared your inspiration with
us over at Creative Knockouts this week.
Keep us busy commenting on your awesome creations.

Thank you so much for joining me today.

You Are My... and Enjoy The Ride

 Hello and welcome to my blog.
Life has been a little bit busy here but
we are managing to keep it all together.
Never know what daily changes there will be with
the pandemic. Whether we will have no
school for our kids and kids not at work because
of them being closed.
Taking things day by day!
Could mean more crafting time for others and me???
 Today, is my day to post as DT
There are two cards today for you.
First stamp set highlighted is called


Everyone has that one person who you just instantly call.
For me if it isn't my husband it was ALWAYS my
mom. I miss our phone calls so much. It is hard to 
believe that she has been gone for month in a half.
Now it will still be my husband
or sister, one of my aunties or friends.
I adore that Denise has this sentiment in with this fun set!
It is hard to see but the background which was made using
a stencil and wink of stella to make the dots pop and the one flag.

Card #2
This very fun Stamp set is called


A perfect set for all of those bike lovers
and just for some fun masculine cards too.

The dies with this stamp set are just awesome
The motorbike and the black circle.
They cut around the image like butter.
I also used some copic markers to high light
just a few parts of the bike.
I used 3 of the sentiments in this package, 
they just seemed to fit together.
The background was made using a stencil
and inks. It was so much fun making my own
background paper today.

Be sure to hop on over to The Project Bin 
shop and blog
for much more inspiration all week.

Stay safe
and
thank you

my blog!!!

pass away suddenly and that has been really
hard on so many people.
My thoughts are with them all.

The perfect inspiration stamp set

me think that on the water he would be that
artist, using the wind and water to create
a masterful design.
One day, I hope that Rob is able to check
this off of his bucket list.
