Tilda's Pup

With Laura being such a big dog lover, I couldn't pass up this cute little guy when he came out a few months ago. He is a Magnolia stamp and makes such a cute card. The paper is the Rustic Stack by DCWV.

HM May Flowers

This is one of the new house mouse stamps I got last month. I love how it turned out.

Rustic House Mouse

Of course, the House Mouse didn't want to be left out of the "Rustic" theme of the weekend. This cute HM and his Happy Hopper friend got to use some of the DCWV Rustic stack paper too.

Christmas Tildas

Two more cards to add to the weekend theme of Magnolias. Both of these are Christmas cards.

Tilda Weekend

My friend, Danni, has been working on "themed weekends". I couldn't play last week, but this weekend is Magnolias. I just happened to have some Tildas that needed attention!!

I love this cute image that I got just before Christmas, but the card layout did give me some headaches.

This is a lonely, neglected Tilda stamp that I've had for ages but had not inked before. I like the way she looks, so she is sure to be used more from now on and not collect dust as before.

This is one of the images that I've been working on with paper piecing. Again, her dress and socks are paper pieced.

Another cute Tilda... this one has 3-dimensional raindrops.

Same image as before, but this one is colored a little differently and different papers/ embellies.

Another new stamp that had not been used before.

Tildas

I colored some Tildas the other night. The first 2 are new stamps that I got right before Christmas and hadn't had a chance to play with until now.

I had a difficult time with this stubborn little Tilda. I colored her and cut her out. She is sitting on a 3-D swing. The board is a small piece of cardstock with chalked edges. The ropes are twine. All of that was the easy part. Trying to decide what to do with her was the hard part. I kept putting her on different backgrounds but I wasn't satisfied with any of them until I used this BG Indian Summer dp paper. I finally decided to leave her alone!

I have to give credit to the layout of these cards and the use of the dp to Danni. She made such a cute card using a sketch from CCEE Stampers.... and CASEd her card!! Be sure to check her original card out on her blog.

House Mouse Birthday

Love these little mice. I don't think its possible to make a bad card as long as you're using a House Mouse!! This image was a RAK from my friend, Terry, who is also a HM addict-- lucky for me.

The water is highlighted with Stickles and really sparkles and shines in person.

Bath Time

I love how this image turned out. I think it made a really pretty card-- just not sure I can part with it!! LOL!!

... eat dessert first!

The sentiment stamp that goes with this image is one of my favorite life philosophies--- life's uncertain.. eat dessert first!!

I got this stamp a little before Christmas but hadn't used him before. I think he makes a very cute image and card.

Happy Hoppers

Love those Happy Hoppers!! Here are 2 of the images I colored over the week end.

Sympathy Cards

I hate making sympathy cards. If I was smart, I'd make them ahead of time, before I need them, but I've never claimed to be that smart. Needed a few sympathy cards yesterday, so these are some of the ones I made.

Sleepy Bear

This is another of the sleepy bear images from Terry. As you can tell, Terry keeps me well supplied with any images that I need.

House Mouse

I love this little guy. This image is another from my friend, Terry. Of course, after she sent the images, Laura and I decided that he was so cute that he needed to come live with us.

Brother's Birthday Card

Made this birthday card for my brother. I don't know how he feels about moose, but I love them, so it gave me a chance to make a moose card!!

This and That.....

Trying to find homes for all those colored images that I've had stuck here and there.

Sleepy Bear....

All of our snow inspired this card. We have had some type of snow every day since December 18th.... and still counting. I can't even get my back door open because the snow is piled up so high!!!

My friend Terry sent me the image of this cutie. The inside sentiment on this little guy is: "I'm going back to bed until Spring!"

Cocoa Kisses

This is another of the digi images of the Cocoa Kisses/ Marshmallow Hugs with just a little different color scheme. I'm still trying to decide what's my favorite.

Digi Images

These are my first attempts at digi-stamps. I got this image before Christmas and just worked on these cards yesterday. I love the cards.... jury is still out on the digi-stamps. Also, I just got a new printer last week, so I'm anxious to see how the new ink works with them.

Another Sugar Nellie

This is another of the Sugar Nellie images. I colored a bunch of them before Christmas and never got them on cards until now. The colors on the scan are terrrible. She is actually a bright pink and bright green.... but you get the idea.

Snowy Sugar Nellie

Worked on this card Monday and just now getting the chance to post her... she is a Sugar Nellie. Used my SU matt pack for the corner piercing and a cuttlebug embossing folder for the snowflakes.
