Beauty Hints

I seem to be in a journal page mode, with lace!!
This is my entry for the digital2fortuesday challenge, this was such a great image to play with....I'd love to embroider it and hope to do so in the near future....hmmm.....if I get the time!

also did a couple more pages with some images from past challenges on digital2for tuesday and wanted to share them too

the weather is cooling off here and the sweaters are pulled out and worn so I can only dream of the warm weather and swimming and the beach....sigh... but at least I can play around with this journal of mine and pretend its beach time and fun....and pretend I've got the curves like these lovely ladies!! LOL!!
hey why not?? If I'm gonna dream then it may as well be the whole shabang!!(is that a word? and if it is did I spell it right?) But the reality is that it is raining and somewhere around 50 degrees out and I've got a sweater on this so out of shape body of mine...and Krissa is in school and I hear my pillow yelling my name so I'm thinking it must be nap time!

Thanks for looking and have a great everyone!!

She Ponders....

I have enjoyed a creative sunday......

this card was made using the blue beauty collage sheet from june at dezinaworld....I love the vibrant colors....I used the collage sheet to digitally create this using printshop22....

its been rainy here most of the weekend so not much time outside....today I made a huge pot of homemade soup....good thing is I've got supper for tomorrow night already done!! When I make a big pot like that we will eat on it for a couple of days then I will freeze what is left over......its a great idea for those nights when everyday life is more hectic than usual, just grab it out of the freezer and heat it up!!! quick and easy....

then I played around with this image of the little football boy from cora at digital2fortuesday....

I think this turned out well....a great card for that birthday boy.....

had to resist the urge to frill it up....so kept it pretty simple knowing that flowers and ribbons and such probably wouldn't be what those tough little guys would want...lol....

Got a few more things started but they still need a few more touches....is it just me or does everyone suddenly get a mental block when your in the middle of creating something.....I start out having an idea of what I want to do,and knowing that along the way I'll make several changes until I get something that I'm satisfied with.....but sometimes I have to leave it half way done because I cant decide what I want to do next.....then later,maybe an hour or a day, and sometimes a week I'll go back to it and can finish it off easily.....guess I just have to step back and ponder-like the lady in the top card-and clear my brain (or what little bit I got up there!!lol) to see what the project needs....

Thanks for stopping in and have a good day.

Guest Host for DigitalTwoForTuesday

Hi everyone, I am so pleased and honored to be the guest host this week for cora at DigitalTwoForTuesday....every week cora gives us 2 wonderful digital images to choose from and we create whatever we like with them....go check out her site and join in, its all about having fun and being creative.

This week cora gave us a football boy and a baseball boy to use. First I resized the images then printed them out, I then colored the images with colored pencils.

My first project is a school folder. I added some decorative scrapbook paper at the bottom. Then I took a piece of black cardstock and with my puter added the words No. 1 Player at the bottom. I took the little football image and glued it to some purple cardstock, then glued this onto the black cardstock. I then glued this to the folder, and added a football and shoulder pads embellishment to it.

My next project is a birthday card that I finished digitally with printshop22, the baseball background and the little embellishments at the top were from printshop, and after putting my boy image on a black background I then placed it on the card.

And my last project is this cute little door knob hanger. After coloring the image I scanned it back onto my puter, then used a template provided by printshop22 to create this. I added the little caution words to it because any one that has boys knows that when you walk into their room anything could be flying across it.I hope you enjoy my projects, this is my first attempt at guest hosting so any comments or suggestions are appreciated. Thanks for looking and have a good day!

Birthday Card

I have several special girls with birthdays coming up soon, and this wonderful digital stamp from Cora's at Digital Tuesday challenge blog seemed perfect for a bithday card. I used printshop 22 and paint.net to create the effects I wanted.

She also has a little boy digital stamp this week that would be perfect for that special card for a boy.

Light Of Our Youth

This is my entry in the DigitalTwoForTuesday challenge at cora's. This card was digitally done using printshop 22 and paint.net. I spent quite a bit of time on this getting it just how I envisioned it in my mind, but I'm really pleased with how it turned out. Did you notice the images of my darling girl in the headlights of the car?

Thanks for taking the time to stop in, hope you enjoy my card...and please stop in at cora's and check out the other great entries.
