Are you looking for that perfect Christmas gift to you from with lots of love....hey I know I always get myself one well come on over to the CMC classroom and sign up for class 5 it is jam packed with lots of fun techniques

just look at the rusty old truck how cool is that and you can learn to color like that !

I had so much fun making this card for my DIL to give my son for his birthday it is so him LOL !   These cute little images are from Mo's Digital Pencil...I made this an easel card one of my favorite types of card.....this is one of the few cards for a man I have done that I think it turned out pretty good !

 My image is printed on Cryogen white and colored with copics.  I computer generated the sentiments.  DP's are just stuff I had laying around and then I use the MS border and corner punch to accent it.

Happy Thursday to you !  Wow I tell you I had the coolest surprise in my comments a dear friend that I have not talked with in years found me cause of my blog.....our lives went in different directions and we lost track but hey now we are back on track again !  Waving hi to you Ginette !

Hey have you been over to the CMC Challenge group lately there is a new challenge up and this time it is all about the boys and their toys !  We have a great sponsor the very talented Mo Manning, the winner will get $15.00 to spend at Mo's store, so swing on by and check it out.  The winner will also receive a pack of Cryogen white paper.

I used her cute little image called "Buds" (boy) this so reminds me of my little grandson Tyler how he use to crawl all over my dog Nanna she was a big ole rottie that loved the babies, I miss her so much !  My image is colored with copics on cryogen white paper.  The DP's are Jillibean Spotted Owl soup collection.  The sentiment is from Magnolia.  Buttons and little bone are from my stash and I just added some stitching for some bling as boy cards are not my strong point.

Do you know who's birthday it is ?

Yippe TGIF and it is an extra special Friday for me as we are celebrating my DGD's 15th birthday......yikes where does the time go, holy cow seems like just yesterday she was this cute little daddy's girl standing on the love seat waiting to see his car pull in from work and she would holler "D D D" and he would come in and say "A" as her name is Alyssa.
 ♥ Happy Birthday Princess you will always be my special angel ♥

This little card is just to appropriate for her. This is a Mo's Digital image "Dani and Friends" and Alyssa's best friends name is Dani and this so looks like the 2 of them.  Alyssa does not like lots of frills as she calls it so her are cards pretty clean and simple. I have followed the sketch over at Midnight Madness MMSC73.

My image is colored with copics.  All papers are digital.  This is another one of those cards made from everything in the craft room no purchase necessary and if you would see this craft room you would understand why I am trying to use things on hand KWIM ! I cut the backs off  the little black flower brads and just glued them on I like that better that holes in the card.
The black and pink background are raised, and the image is also raised with pop up dots for depth, and the the flowers have 3 layers for the 3D effect.

And the inside of the card,

I am entering this into a few challenges:

Pile it on - Cute and Charming

ASFOS -  Challenge 123 Spots and Strips

Stamp Something - Celebrate

Digi Doodles - Challenge 27 3D it
