Blinging it Up!

Hiya stampers! Hope the new year has started off great for you.
All I had on my wish list for Christmas was stamp related items. So you will be seeing some new fun things.
Today my card is for the "Bring back beautiful challenge over at Flourishes, Bling it UP". I just got this gorgeous set and couldn't wait to ink it up!! My pears relect the color of the pears I have been seeing around here, they don't have very many leaves on them but this is the color of them. They do look a little strange on the trees with just a few leaves and a ton of pears. I'm sure they are a beacon to the deer.
I colored the images with Copic's and the stamps are "Pears" by Flourishes.


Hope your week is going great and thanks for stopping by.

Did someone say Fish?

Hi I'm back with another post! This one is for the Featured Stamper Challenge over at SCS. Today is "LunarLana , she has a awesome gallery and here is the one I decided to case.
Campground Fishin
The things I changed is the stamp set and the DP.
The bear is from the newly released set from Theresa Momber "Mountain Wilderness" and I also used the sign image from "Happy Camper" both are by Gina K. Designs. I wrote the "Fishin Hole" in the sign to keep with the theme of her card.


Off to clean the mess I made!! Thanks for stopping by.

A New Year!

Good morning and Happy New Year!!!
Time for new beginnings and new hope for the coming year. I wanted to share this card I made for Donna's new release challenge over at Stamp TV. To make a stamped a background.
For my card I used Theresa Momber's just released set "Mountain Wilderness" by Gina K. Designs.
I just love this set and goes so well with many of her other sets. I see quail all the time but the best time is when they have all their baby's, they are so cute!!!!

I'm not making any new year resolutions, but do hope to try to do better at cleaning my stamping area. Don't really think it will happen, but there is always HOPE!

Happy New Year, my friends and thanks for stopping by.
