Flit

Hello!
Stamp,Scrap & Doodle Saturdays challenge this week is to go digital.  So I used Flit from the Forest Friend Collectionfrom Stretch N' Bubbles for this simple card!  This image is available from the store here.  I colored her in with my Copics, cut her out added her to my oval shape with a sentiment for a pretty fast card!  Thanks for stopping by!

Simply Asian

Hello!

This little cutie is called Tooling from the Zen Collection and she is available at the Stretch N' Bubbles store now.  I'm putting her in the challenge being held over at Creative Inspirations Challenge blog. 

The challenge this week is anything goes and a chance to be a guest designer along with some cool prizes!  I colored her in with my Copics and then paper pieced her dress together with some DP paper from PTI.  I used two Doilie tags that I cut in two to make my background with from MS.  Cut up a Prima flower for the sides, it sort of reminds me of a fan that an Asian women would carry.  My sentiment is from PTI's All About You.  That just about covers it!  Thanks for stopping by!

The Greatest Of Gifts

Hello!

I made this card using this cute little bear from Stretch N" Bubbles for this weeks challenge over at the

Digital Tuesday challenge.  I printed her out twice and paper pieced her together instead of just using my copics.  I love the new Inside & Out Baby sentiments they are awesome!  Hope you like her!  Thanks for stopping by!  This little bear is available at the Stretch N' Bubbles store.

Thank You!

Hello!
My son graduated from High School yesterday and we had a little party for him and it was a late night for all... so I decided to stay home this weekend and catch up on some  house work and do some crafting!!!  YES!!!

This card I wanted to keep clean and simple.  I love the new PTI  Inside &Out:  Thank You stamp set.  The sentiment I used here looks good with the single flower image.  The flower is a digi image that is available from Stretch N' Bubbles.   I entered it in the Creative Card Crew challenge.  Which was to make a Thank You card. I hope you like it and thanks for taking the time to stop by!

Owl Tree

Hello,
This image is called Owl Tree and he is available at the Stretch N' Bubbles store today.  I colored him in with my Copics to match my design paper then cut him out and adhered him with pop-ups onto the image.   My tag I made with my scalloped punch.  I didn't have any red pearls to add to my card like I wanted so I just colored some white ones to match.  I don't know what I'd do without my Copics!  I put him into the challenge over at The Little Red Wagon.  The challenge is to create a card with a Birthday theme.

supplies; Copics, PTI-white,red card stock, DP-Beautiful Blooms, Ripe Avocado-ribbon, sentiment-fillable frames #4, SU-scallop punch

Nessy

Good Morning!
Today is digi free Wednesday at Stretch N' Bubbles.  This little serpent is called Nessy and she is available for free at the store today!  I paper pieced her so she would look like she was "in" the water.  I followed the sketch from SNB for this card.  Have a great day!  It's going to be another hot one here but I'm not complaining...bring it on!

Googlie Moogalie

Hello!  I created this card using  the image called Googlie Moogalie from Stretch N" Bubbles for the challenge over at the Creative Cottage Challenge blog.  We were to create a card for "the boys".  I printed him out onto some DP paper and then colored the eyes in with a Copic marker to create some definition to the image.  I hope you like him and thanks for poppin' in!

Gnomes

Hello
I thought I'd play along with The Critter Sketch challenge this week.  We had to make a birthday card and this image called Gnomes was perfect for the challenge. The image is available at the Stretch N' Bubbles store.  I colored them in and then cut them out and added pop-ups to the front Gnome.  I used some Basic Grey paper from the max & whiskers pack along with some lace and a flower to tie it all together! 

Secret Crafter Saturday challenge #83

Hi!
The Secret Crafter Saturday challenge this week is to use metal on your project!  I had the perfect image for the challenge...Kip the Robot from Stretch N' Bubbles.  Everyone knows that robots and metal are one in the same!  At least for a little boys' Birthday card!  I kept it pretty simple by just coloring him in with my Copics (N1,3,5 and 7)  I then gave him a little bling on the darker gray sections with my Spica clear pen. Added my metal pieces in Pewter and there you have it!  If you like my little robot he is available at the Stretch N' Bubbles store.  Thanks for taking a peek!  Have a good one!

Decorated Bird

Hello!
The challenge this week over at Our Creative Corner was to make a Mothers Day card  with out using flowers.  The  image I used is called Decorated Bird and you can find her at the Stretch N' Bubbles store.  I use some Kaiser pearls and a little lace trim from stash to give it a "girly" feel.  I hope you like her and thanks for stopping by!

Kitty Cat

Good Morning!  

I feel like I've been away for so long!  I've been working on a scrapbook for an  80th Birthday party this Saturday.  I finally finished it!  I would like to take this time and do the dance of joy... I had less then two weeks to whip this up!   There is no such thing as whipping a scrapbook up I have to much pride it has to look just right! LOL!!!

On to my card!  Isn't this just the most adorable little kitty?!!!  She is available today at Stretch N' Bubbles for free.  We also have a weekly challenge over at Stretch N' Bubbles so pop on over and play it is a sketch challenge and this is my take on the sketch.  I will be popping by to see your creations with one of our images from Stretch N' Bubbles! 

Flourish Teapot

Hello,
I'm back again with another image from Stretch N' Bubbles called Teacup Flourish.  Which is a new image for April and it is available in the Stretch N' Bubbles store.  I made this card to enter it in The Secret Crafters Saturday challenge.  It has to be a "Get Well' card.  I figured this was perfect for a get well card.  There is nothing better then a spot of tea to make one feel right as rain again! LOL!!! I hope you like it and thanks for taking the time to stop by and have a look!  ;0)

Bird with Balloon

Good Morining!
Well this Sunday is nothing like last Sundays weather. I don't have to worry about looking to pasty in my shorts this weekend!  LOL!  We are back down into the low 40's brrr!  It's a good day to do some crafting and catch up on some projects I have going for some people.  I have to make a 12x12 scrapbook for May 1st.  The woman just gave me some stuff for it yesterday and she wants the theme to be quilting.  Man I need some inspiration if anyone knows of quilting layout patterns let me know??!!!    It's the deadline that's stressing me and that anything I need to get has to be on line because there are no craft stores within a hundred mile radius!!! Grrrr!!!

On to my card...This image is called Bird with Balloon and its available as a digi over at Stretch N' Bubbles.  I pulled out a bunch of old Creative Memories paper and colored the birds and balloon to match the paper.  While I was at it I decided to follow this weeks sketch over at CPS.  Thanks for taking the time to stop by! ;0)

Hatchy Chick in Egg

Good Morning!

Today is digi free Wednesday at Stretch N' Bubbles and this chick is up for grabs! So head on over and snag him. I decided not to use the traditional "Easter" colors for this card. Even though he's not traditional I like him! Thanks for stopping by!

Bunny

Hello!

I've been making Easter cards all afternoon (three to be exact). Yikes!!! I'm a slow worker! So seeing I was making them I decided to enter them in a few challenges. Over at the Papertake Weekly Challenge we could enter any type card so I chose...EASTER!!! The image I used is from Stretch N' Bubbles it's called Bunny Behind.

Pip (Su-she)

This little lady is now available from Stretch N' Bubbles. We have good news at Stretch N' Bubbles the new store is now up and running!!! Please go and check it out. We no longer have to post on Mondays and Fridays. We now can post when ever we choose so.... check the store often for new images that are being added and are available for sale.

Yes we will still have digi free Wednesdays!!! Even more exciting news is coming for everyone that enjoys Alison's wonderful images! Ah Ha! you will just have to wait and see! LOL!

For my card I used Clearly Creative card stock I thought it would make a better back drop for my image. I used some old Asian paper I had lying around. Hope you like her and thanks for stopping by!

Cupcake

Hello!

This image is called Cupcake with dots and swirls and it's available today over at Stretch N' Bubbles. I paper pieced this one together and used just a simple layout for it. This post is short and sweet just like the cupcake! LOL!!! Have a good day!

Bunny Behind

Good Monday Morning!

Well it's time for another new release over at Stretch N' Bubbles today. The new digi image is called Bunny Behind. I printed it twice and cut the main part of the body and tail out and adhered them with pop-ups. I cut the grass out on my cricut using the grass from Plantin School Book. I used paper from the new PTI-Egg Hunt paper pack. There is some paper with eggs on it and I just cut a bunch out and stuck them down into the grass with a few peeking through the blades of grass to make him look like he was sitting in a patch of Easter eggs. The grass is also popped out with pop-ups I used the 1/16 for the bunny and the 1/8 for the grass so that it would lay nicely. I used my Copic C1 just to shadow my layers on the bunny a little. That's about it! Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Italo Bird

Good Morning!

Here we are again with another new release from Stretch N' Bubbles. I kept him pretty simple and decided to play up the image by using some bright colored Design paper behind him. I cut out a wing and added a pop-up under the back side of it for a little dimension. I love using those little clips from Close to my Heart. I've had them forever and just started using them. Well that's it for now! I hope you like him and thanks for stopping by! ;0)
