Hello my crafty friends……. what a weekend. I planned a wine and craft afternoon yesterday and it was a blast. I thought I could get some projects done didn’t happen. I talked most of the time. Had a great time with my friends Jan and Michelle. I managed to get my sister to watercolor a Suzy Plant watercolor card from an old Simon Says Stamp kit as well. This morning I’m playing over on the CASology blog and the Cue word last week was Season……… I new the card I wanted to enter.
I did a few rays of the sunshine with the Tim Holtz Rays stencil and then colored the cross with various copic markers….. Enjoy your day and I’ll be back soon. Oh! By the way hope you like my take on the cue word.

Wowzer…… What a week my crafty friends.. I’ve been one busy Chica over here. Earlier in the week I was the Guest Designer on the CASology blog and the latter part of the week, I participated in a Mother’s Day blog hop.
It feels good to sit in the haven and create again after my whirlwind week. I will say I have tons of respect for the ladies and companies that put together a blog hop. If I had to do it all over again I would jump right on that band wagon. It was exciting and lots to learn.
Well my friends this evening I’m playing over on The Freshly Made Sketches blog. I had a hard time pulling this one together…… but when you have crafty friends that have great minds it all works out right. Here’s my take on this weeks sketch.. this one’s for you Sandy.

Woot! Woot! Guess what yeap! you guessed this girl is guesting on her favorite challenge……. CASology! I’ve been doing the happy dance every since I got the email from Melissa asking me to join them this week. I’m super excited this is such an honor and a dream come true for me………. Well enough of my ranting. The Cue word this week is Grow and boy did I have to rack my brains on this one.
I used the Altenew Garden Grow stamp set and created a scene… I pulled out a ton of copic markers and a little masking to make this one happen. I knew I wanted an outdoorsy ( is that even a word) setting so I pulled out a brick stencil to create my scene. I hope you enjoy my take on this weeks cue word…….

Hello my crafty friends…. I’m hoping you had a great weekend… I had a super busy weekend. I spent yesterday at SU OnStage here in San Diego such a nice day with my crafty peeps. I have to admit the new Annual Catalog will blow you away some really great stamp sets coming your way. I had the best plans today and you know how that goes right. I planed my day to go workout at this new club called Orange Theory and then I was going into the Office to catch up on some work well that didn’t work out because the server was down what a bummer…. I then decided to come home and just finish up a few projects in the haven. This evening I’m playing over on the CASology blog cue word is Icing.
I had no idea what to create I went through my stash until an idea popped in my head… I used the LF Baked with Love set and colored my images with several copic markers. I wanted to create a bakery window display so I used the Flirty frames die to make a window and used the Tim Holtz brick stencil and softly blended with clarity brushes to give me a background. Alright friends hope you like my take on the cue word.. I’m out have a great week my crafty friends.

Oh what a beautiful morning! Hello my crafty friends I’m feeling somewhat better this morning I didn’t wake up with the dreaded headache that’s been plaguing me all week. I don’t think I can take any more sinus medication……… I’m playing this morning over on the CASology blog and this weeks cue word is TEXT. I knew exactly what I wanted to create but for some reason plan A didn’t happen the way I like you know how that is right. So onto plan B.
I went deep into the crafty confines of my haven and pulled out The SSS Floral Bookmarking stamp set and Woot! the perfect Text appeared before my eyes….. I stamped the sentiment in my Misti stamping tool
to get the perfect alignment. I then used the die set to cut out the flower and leaves to make a stencil. I’m in love with stenciling lately….. I used a few distress inks to blend the flower and leaves onto the sentiment. It’s one of my favorite quotes. I just love when you get what your looking for in your creation. I will say this one came together rather nicely. I do hope you like my take on this weeks cue word.
