Hi all here are two more of the cards I created this weekend. I will have two more to share tomorrow. I am saving 2 cute ones from a local stamp company that I just discovered I have a friend connection with! The “bun in the oven” stamp is a idea lift from the current challenge over at iCopic i saw this stamp there and just had to have it! iCopic’s challenge this week was cast shadows. these are not some of my best but they will do for a quicky card.


This next card is made with a set of stamps made by Unity. Love their stuff as well. So I have been busy getting a little inky.


Sara is off on a Girl Scout adventure tonight yikes!! And Lori John and I hit Chick-fil-A for lemonade, YUM! Happy Saturday all!

Yes busy busy. Here is the pile of cards I completed this evening. Now if people would stop having events and birthdays maybe I could get some scrapping done! But I am having fun. I will get close ups of more of these in the next few days but here is one completed for the Michelle Perkett weekly challenge. we were supposed to create our own background paper ans I used my Copic air brush system to create the cloud pattern behind my Flower Goddess. I love Michelle Perkett images! But boy do they take a little extra time with all their yummy detail. Off to tuck the girls in, I’ll be back to post more later!


Also this weekend is the last chance to grab my Copic Coloring #1 at the discounted price! So don’t forget to check it out 🙂

Hugs All!

Well it is up and ready to go! My new class Copic Coloring #1 is up and on sale for the first few days!

I am so excited to be showing off such amazing art work by three very talented digital artists and thrilled to be sharing 8 new images of my own. If you would like to check out more of the 3 guest artists work check out my latest article and you can find links to all three!

On the family front we are finally winding down. The much needed break of NO evening activities for two whole weeks! Recital is done. And the sun is shining for the moment! We are getting ready for a couple short trips and one grand adventure to Oregon this summer and lots of time at the pool for swim team and diving. Not to mention morning daycamps and fun.

Happy Tuesday all!

A quick post to show off my latest card. This one is another beautiful image from Michelle Perkett and fulfills the challenge over at her blog. The challenge was to use die cuts of which I have very few, but the little flower is two layered die cuts that have been colored to match. It also works for the challenge over at iCopic they are exploring blond hair this week. My Spring Goddess is a dark blond and I used Copic YR31, Y23, Y26, and E35 to create her golden locks.


We are closing in on recital here at the Houghton house! 3 days to go woo hoo. I think we are all ready to be done this year.
Hugs all!

Happy Tuesday all!

Long day here but wanted to get lots of stuff up here and then I will go to bed. We were at dress rehersals today for the majority of today so we are all wiped out. Recital this Saturday and dance is done. I recorded the dress rehearsal so I will post those later this week.

First here is a layout I made for the current challenge at A Day For Daisies. They have a wonderful card sketch that of course I have turned into a layout 🙂 The image is one of Tammy Thompson’s beautiful creations and could not have been more perfect for my family!

Here is a close up of our bear and two girls 🙂

I think this is quickly becoming a favorite image of mine! It is a creation of Michelle Perkett and I love how quick and easy it is to color and adapt to any set of papers! So fun!

And to top it off my Mermaid images were chosen (randomly) as the winner of last weeks challenge at Michelle Perkett’s challenge Blog! Thanks ladies!


Off to bed!
Hugs all!
