30 Day Coloring Challenge - Day 2

Here is my card for Day 2:

This pretty image and sentiment were created by Mynn Kitchen, of MHK Designs. She's so talented, and I have fun coloring her images! Sadly, Mynn closed her store in May. I will miss her beautiful work!

Hugs and blessings!

30 Day Coloring Challenge

Happy Sunday, everyone!

After wishing forEVER that I had time to take part, I finally decided to MAKE time to participate in the 30 Day Coloring Challenge.  Whew.....what was I thinking?  Lol, it's really therapeutic and very good for me!  I'm using up a lot of pre-printed, pre-stamped images that I've had in a box.

Without further ado, here is Day 1:

Here's a closer image of this poor sunburned fella!

This fun image is a Bug-a-Boo image!  I was going to enter this in a challenge someplace, where the theme is 'Summer', and the sponsor is Bug-a-Boo, but I can't remember where the challenge is!  If you know, please tell me!!!

Have a great evening, my friends!

Hugs and blessings,

Fun with Nuggets!

Good morning!

Happy Sunday - hope you're enjoying your weekend.

So, I had a bag of Nuggets in my CRoffice (craft room/office that I share with dear hubby). Said bag of chocolate nuggets were terrorizing me - they had to go! After spending a little time thinking, and stewing, I did the only smart thing I could think of - Yep, I went to Pinterest!

There is a group of 'older' Sunday School folks that I try to spoil every few weeks or so, and after I saw this idea on Pinterest, I decided that's where the Nuggets would go.

Here's what I made...cute, right?

They're not hard, very little labor involved, and cute as can be!

Hope the group enjoys them this morning!

Thanks for stopping by,

Hugs and blessings,

Scor-Pal Challenge 'Pretty in Pink'

Hi everyone!

It skipped spring and went right to summer Missouri. That's okay with me, as I'm always cold!

It's time for a new challenge on the Scor-Pal blog - 'Pretty in Pink'. Creations need to include more than one fold, and the 'Pretty in Pink' theme.  

Here is my project for today:

This cute little box is holding two Vanilla scented candles. Pretty cute, right?

I'm hoping the recipient will like it!

If you check back here on the 15th, I'll show you how to make these!

For this project, I used my Scor-Pal Eighths, & 1/2" Scor-Tape.

Thanks for looking! 

I hope to see your creations in our monthly Scor-Pal challenge!

We also have a ton of inspiration on our Projects on the Scor-Pal website and also on our Pinterest Board to help you get creative!Challenge at Scor-Pal! 

Happy June!

Quick and Easy Greetings...

Hello out there!

It's been a pretty hectic spring, and I've sorely neglected this blog. 

I'm going to attempt to post more often!

Today, I have a few cards to share. These were all created when I needed something very quick. They were all created with paper pads from Heartfelt Creations.

Isn't it amazing what you can do with a pretty piece of patterned paper? 

Thanks for popping by to look!

Wishing you all well,

Patti J.

Inspired by...

Hi guys!

I saw a challenge at 'Inspired by...' that I thought looked like fun.  They've been up and running for quite some time, and this is the first chance I've had to play along!

I drug out a bit of old patterned paper and a die, and voila!

Here is the inspiration photo:

And here is my card!

I was drawn to the luggage, but didn't have any luggage stamps or dies, so I opted for the designer paper with license plates.

Thanks so much for stopping by,

Patti J.

Belle

Good morning!

Just popping in this morning to share a pretty and ever so quick card that I created using a new Penny Black stamp 'Belle'.

I used small finger daubers for this, and inked some different shades of Distress Oxide Inks directly onto the stamp.  It's an easy way to create some depth, and use different colors on a one layer stamp. 

I'm quite embarrassed to say that I've torn my craft room apart, and cannot figure out which stamp set the sentiment is from!

I'm going to enter this in the Wednesday challenge at Simon Says Stamp 'Use More Than One Stamp'.

Thanks for stopping by today - hope you had a nice weekend!

Ours was perfect. We had a wonderful Homecoming at our church on Sunday, and made our graveyard visits on Monday.  

Hugs to all,

Patti J.
