Mother's Day Apes

Good morning and a VERY Happy Mother's Day To All of the Mother's out there!! I hope you all have a beautiful day full of doing whatever YOU want to do! That is what I plan on doing :)  Not much of anything but coloring and crafting. Maybe a little tinkering on the pc. No errands, no going out... today is all about us, right? hehehe  Have a wonderful day!!

Today I am posting one more Mother's Day card. This one sold already.









This one is using Flower Monkey from A Day For Daisies. I've colored this image with Copic Markers and I've created the sky using a monthly lesson from Kit and Clowder. I've added several die cuts, the vines, the oval, the butterfly. I cut the yellow flowers to make those pop. I've added some coloring and inking to add some dimension to the die cuts. I've also added some gems to the center of those yellow flowers and small pearls to the butterfly. I've added some small paper flowers, the sentiment is a stamp. These papers were from a pad and the black and papers used for the die cuts are all from scraps. I thought these papers were perfect for this card.

Copic Markers Used:
  • Gorillas: N0, N1, N3, N5, N7, N9
  • Sky: Y15, Y17, YR14, YR16, E15
  • Grass: G21, G94, YG67, G99

Mother Day In Blue

Good morning! I hope everyone is having a great week! It has been a busy week! Tonight is a night of Lacrosse games. I have to have dinner to the girls all set up by 3:15 pm. So, I'll be leaving a bit early to get there and get that set up. Then I can log back into work if need be. I'm also picking up one of Bailey's friends from church. She is homeschooled, so she doesn't get to do these things much. I'll pick her up and we will head to the school. I'm hoping the girls do alright tonight. I'm not sure how good this team is that they are playing. I know Bailey gets REALLY frustrated at the JV team.

Friday, I'm taking off to go to Dahlonega with Kevin. We are going to go by the High School up there. Michael is going to go stay with my oldest daughter and go to school up there next year. We are hoping that the change will help him. He really needs to get through this next year of school. I'm hoping Taylor can influence him a bit. We will see! Then Saturday we have a tournament all day. Here is to a busy weekend ahead!!

Here is another Mother's Day creation:

Sparkly Floral ATC.

Good afternoon!!  I'm off to the movies with my husband! We don't get to go out too much on dates so it is alway so nice when we can! A nice lunch and a movie! I can't ask for anything more :)  I always LOVE spending time with my husband! This weekend we will be at home for a full weekend of racing.. motorcycles and Bathurst 1000. So, there will be no going out this weekend! After this past weekend though... I'm looking forward to a weekend at home!

Here is an ATC:








For this one I have used a freebie from A Day For Daisies. I've used a lot of different colors of glitter keeping with the purple and pink colors with a touch of gold. I used a stencil on the background with some texture and then sprayed with different mists. The hearts were colored with my copic markers. Glitter and paint... a true mixed media creation! :D  I had fun with it.

Strength and Dignity*

Good morning! The week started off much better than last week! It was a good day yesterday at work. I got a lot accomplished. I did the gym in the morning and at lunch.. so I got my time in and it felt good! Later in the afternoon I got a call from the high school that my son needed to come home because he has caught the stomach bug going around there. Oh fun! He did eat tonight though and seems to be doing okay.

Then, when I came home I got busy on the card I was working on and finished that! So overall, it was a really good day. Now I need to start coloring the next image. I don't think I'm going to get done all I want to get done this month. I'm so slow LOL  Coloring is slow, creating is slow! I'm just slow! There is no other way to say it.

Here is my share for today:







I love A Day For Daisies images. She is just so delicate. I used Copic Markers to color this. I used Kraft paper for the base. This card was cut using the Silhouette Cameo. I added a bit of lace and put some twine over it. There is a bit of pearls added to the scripture that I arranged and printed. I added some pearls to the inside to finish it off.

Here is what I have come up with using an image from A Day For Daisies:








For this post I've used Blessing A Flower Fairy from A Day For Daisies. I colored her with my Copic markers. I've added white glitter to her wings. I cut a large hole in the center of the card and added the pink paper behind it. I cut the die using a scalloped circle die. I added the die cut leaves and swirls and then added the flowers on top of those. I then added some gems around and the metal corners. I stamped the Thank You. I did just a small amount of decoupage on this. I popped the top of the flower, the leaf and fairy and her front wing. On the inside I used some additional swirls with gems. And that circle that I cut out from the front... well.. I used that on the inside :)
