Hi Friends,

Before I tell you about my card, I just wanted to say, there is about 8 hours left for the August linky party and I am 12 short of 700 entries ---- I can't believe it, Thank you so much ahead of time. I know I will thank you again. If I go over 700, I will do 2 drawings the second prize will be similar, but not the same


I have a cute little card for you.  I have had this cartridge for quite awhile and Today I said as soon as I get my mess cleaned up I am going to work on something with this teddy bear Parade cartridge..  I just fell in love with the mermaid outfit so it worked in well for theBITTEN BY THE BUG 2 challenge.  The big sun worked well for the heat wave over at FCC.  I used my fiskars wave border punch with some K& Co paper to fit in with Docerela creations challenge, and the sentiment I used worked its way right in to Die Cuttin' Divas. I fussy cut the top part of the paper out and double pop dotted my sun on and then slid my little teddy bear mermaid under the sun.  I added the clover colored skittles for some bubble effect in the waves. The Designer paper I used is MME Indie Chic Citron. I added some white sakura gel pen to the leaves to give some added contrast
I hope you like my card I really had fun making this one. The pattern on my TBM is from Imagine more (IC)



A2 vanilla cream base
Asian Fusion sentiment ripe avocado ink

WEEK #2 DL.ART THANKFUL THURSDAY #116 BACK TO SCHOOL CHALLENGE

Hi Friends, 
Welcome to week two of  DL.ART THANKFUL THURSDAY, You still have some time to enter the back to school challenge for a chance to win these awesome pens.  I hope you get a chance to enter, I really love working with them and the customer service is great.  

  We have been having our typical beautiful end of summer weather, mid 70's, kid's are back in school and tourist season has ended.  Now I can get across town in 6 minutes instead of 45. I love it!! I have been so super busy lately with dinners and meetings and pretty tired at the end of the day, that I just find it hard to get working on anything to do with art except for the commissions I need to finish.  I am happy to say that I have been able to comment on blogs a little easier, if I go through bloglovin' for those of you that are on bloglovin'. There is really no rhyme or reason as to who, why or when I can comment on someones blog. If there were a pattern, I could figure it out, but there isn't-- maybe blogger is doing random.org for commenting. Who knows. I am not going to take it personal, It is what it is.. I will just have to make the best of it and be thankful, after all today is Thankful Thursday. The good news, this past Saturday they opened the bridge that has been under construction for a couple of years. Yeah! that should relieve a lot of the traffic.






DL.ART Thankful Thursday Challenge #116

THEME:  Back to school


                                                                         


I made four back to school cards -- a series kind of thing-   I really had crafters block on this one.  Once I started playing with the pens, the idea came to me. Back to school means fall is here and  I  just want to enjoy the last days of summer.  This past week the liquid amber in our front yard has dropped leaves and I am anticipating an early fall. A quarter of the  leaves on the tree have changed color



I used the Locker talk cartridge for the fun locker and lock image and then colored them in with Copic markers. How fun was this?  Lots


I did the same thing with the little milk carton


 For this chalk board I used DCWV chalkboard paper and the background was drawn with the CRI-KIT gel pen, then cut out I used a prismacolor pen to color in the areas that were drawn, I am very happy with these results

For the finally I just had to use my favorite color, again I used the copic markers on this one. I love that the Cri-KIT pens make the lines for me it is almost like a coloring book


Supplies used:
CRI Kits pens to draw all school images
A2 size True black card stock
Jenny Bowlin back to school bingo cards
paper trimmings (cc)
locker talk (cc)
Ribbon: 3 girl jam






The challenge will be open until 11:55 PST  September, 2013.

MOJO- Round or square




Hi Friends,

All the cards I did  on the weekend wore me out, but I thought I would get my mojo in today.  I still have a big craft mess to clean up because I have been busy with other fun stuff.  My base is Bazzill the dp is from authentique Free bird. The crinkle ribbon is from My craft spot cranberry.



I always love these round or square sketch challenges, because I don't normally make round or square cards.


I forget where the butterfly came from I found it laying in my scrap pile without the antennae so I drew them with a gel pen and I accented the oval which is from verve a cut above die.  All my other cuts are form the art philosophy cartridge. This is a must have car,  I think if I could only keep one, this would be it. I added three starry night stickles for accent also. My sentiment is from PTI on my couch.

Challenges:
mojo: sketch
My craft spot: get well
CCC Not a square

Hi Friends,

I was really hopping on Saturday. Here are the ten projects I made and one I just made for tomorrow. Which really should have been  first. ha ha.  Originally I was going to take a picture of the mess I left behind, which is still waiting for me to cleanup, but I decided it would be nicer to see all the pretty things I did and I will just take care of the mess today!! because I was out of town all day yesterday. I have not been around much lately in case any of you have missed me, sorry about that, but  "life  is what happens while your doing other things" (John Lennon)

Anyway,  it was a lot of fun.




have a blessed day. Diana

Hi Friends, 
Thanks for all the entries on the last challenge, they were really really fun and Camping was something I really enjoyed doing until I discovered room service. I would never think of eating in bed at home, but somehow having coffee delivered to my room while still in bed is certainly appealing

Are you one of those folks that loved school?   or were you the type who had parents that thought it was like pulling teeth to get you out of bed, because you dreaded the thought of going to school?

August 31


Hi Friends,

You must all be super busy right now, getting your kids ready for school or if you are teachers getting your classrooms ready.  I actually love this time of year.   Today was amazing the freeway was hardly busy. I think tourist season is winding down.  Also the bridge that has been being reconstructed for the  past three years is nearing completion.  That will be such a Godsend, when it is finished it will alleviate a lot of traffic.  Half of the schools in our area started on Monday and the rest will start next week " Oh Happy day"

I think I know why my mom was always so happy the first week of school -- She was able to have a little bit of time to herself.  Can you all relate?

I won these digi stamps a while ago and have just been dying to play with them. Here is one of them.  I hope you enjoy it. My papers are from AC card stock Amy Tangerine.


QKR stampede- These are the funniest
I even finished the inside.

I added little pearls to the top.

Week #2 of  
Inspired By: Back to school





Hi friends  Design challenge day for me over at Creative inspirations paint. I had fun making this back to school card.  For the base I used some recollection card stock cut at 11 x 4 1/4 I folded it in half and topped it with some basic grey 5 1/2 by 3 1/2. The cute image, I got from bugaboo, all their stamps are 50% of until Aug 15th.  I used my  Pink Stamper stamp set "Lunch box thoughts". For the books I painted them with all the colors you see below. I just love the shimmer they gave the books


Here's some inspiration:






















I hope you have enjoyed my project and will play along with this week's challenge!!
