Summer Series

Happy Monday! 

I'm here for just a quick post,

 I have so many images colored

I figured it was time to do something

 about it. I'm sharing Boogie Board Owen

with you on this Monday.

He fits right in for my summer theme,

  Boogie Board Owen is an image from

The Paper Nest. Christine is the artist you need to

check out all the adorable Stamps she has 

I love, love them all! 

As most of you know I'm one of the DT's on 

her team and I would like to take the time to Thank

 Christine for this opportunity, I have had a blast  these

 past few months, So thankyou from the bottom of my heart!

I love you!

Now to the image 

See how cute he is?

 I did the Bikini Ellie last week 

you can find my post here.

This is the image all colored up before I put it on a card.

 The card is perfect for any boy you know. 

The inside is just simple no sentiment so you can write anything 

you want, but it all matches perfectly.

and one more of the front of the card.

Summer Lovin'

Howdy y'all today I'm going to share with you Bikini Ellie

 from The Paper Nest. I thought she would be great for 

summer time. Bikini Ellie is SO dang cute. I colored her 

last month and could not wait to show her to y'all.

now was the task to narrow down all my 500 ideas. 

(that's really hard to do)

I have all these things run though my head that will

look so cute like do  use beach paper, stickers, beach

seen, something from my cameo? this is how it goes 

with every project, I can never make up mind mind 

on what to do, and put it off till the last minute and then

it comes out bad.

I ended up doing this card twice, I hope I got it right the

 second time. I used lots of digi stamps. I always try

to create something a bit different not the same old thing everytime.

I made a step card and layered

it with beach background, sand and waves.

I used my cameo cut everything out, used bright and light colors together.

I hope you like it, come back soon.

Here is the first pic. I took a bunch so you can see all

the glitter and dimensions 

upclose are the wave and fishy.

side view so you can see the step card.

 Here is bikini Ellie she looks a bit dark in this pic.

This is the sun I cut out and used my pens on my 

cameo.

I hope you can see how cute it is. I know the pics 

are kinda dark my light broke and have not had 

a chance to replace it.

Don"t forget to go check out The Paper Nest Store

and The Paper Nest Blog

we have lots of things happen!

Father Day Gift!

Today I'm going to share with you a project I made for Fathers Day 

I had Colored an image from The Paper Nest and I was 

trying to come up with something cute, as always to many ideas

and they mostly don't work but I wanted to do a Tackle Box

Why you ask because I colored the image Owen Fishing so 

I looked to see if I could get some ideas and yes I did. I found some

 great ideas at SVG cuts they had what I wanted and needed for 

this project. I will link where I got it and you can see she did a much

better job than me my fish looks funny I think because I but glitter pen on him 

it looks much better in person than a pic. 

There is the whole set I made I think its pretty

cute. It did take some time to cut out and put together all the little things,

 but sometimes that's okay to do. There is a tray with little fishing tackle.

This would be a gift for anyone who likes

fishing, I love the image when I saw it I

 couldn't wait to color him for Fathers Day.

To make the tackle box I used summer holiday kit train case,

and for the embellishments I used forest county, this tray

I used attic treasures and made it smaller to fit the train case.

The Card I used copic markes to color the image,and the embellishment

from forest county. The sentiment daddy'd lil buddy I got from the silhoutte store.

Here is the tackle box up close,

 take a look at the brads

I found at Michael's the look

 like screws.

The fishing poll is so cute, the tag has a fish on it.

The tray is embellished

with lures, bobber, hooks, and

line. I touched all of it up with a brown

 ink pad, to give it that used look.

One more of the tray. 

Now for the reason for my post the card, 

I colored Owen Fishing with copic

markers, embellished the card with 

tackle from the tackle box. (hehe) 

so here it is I hope you like it.

Here Owen Fishing up-close

and the inside of the card.
