Hugs

I like to make cards for kids.  It is hard to do because I am all girlie and detailed.  The kids just like the cutsie.  So, I was excited when I made this card for the Digi Shack Sketchbook Wednesday.  Thanks for looking!  Oh, and the image I used is another of Brian's images being released at TDS on July 5th.

Here is the Sketch:





Here is my take:





Stamps: Digital Stamp by Brian Lock (The Digi Shack), Polka Dot Basics (PTI), Big and Bold Wishes (PTI)
Other: Copics, Fresh Snow Ink (PTI), Smokey Shadow Ink and Paper (PTI), Ribbon (Hobby Lobby)

I have one last card to share using the very last image to be released this week by The Digi Shack.

Sweet Baby

For some reason, I have really been into making baby cards with yellow.  Interesting as I have never been able to break out of the baby pink or baby blue.  I had a ton of fun creating this card.  Isn't it fun when things come together just the way you imagined them in your mind?

Paper: Spring Moss, Vintage Cream (PTI), Brown (Bazzil)

Announcement . . . .

I know it has been a while, but bare with me.  :)  I had a GREAT trip to NYC at the first part of the month.  I spent the next two weeks first with sick kids and the second with sick me.  No fun!!!  But we are all on the mend and doing better.  

Okay, on to my news.  I have been accepted as a DT member for The Digi Shack.  It is a place that sells digital stamps.  I know most of you are gasping that I have put down my PTI stuff.  But, I adore many of the stamps at TDS and wanted to broaden my horizons.  I get to start off my term announcing a new set of digital stamps being release on June 5, 2010. It is a set of cutie-patootie chunkies.  Without further ado, here is a peek at one of them.


As soon as I laid eyes on him, I immediately knew what I was going to do.  I put a twist on the police colors using the dark pink.  I thought it was cute anyway.  Thanks for looking.  I cannot wait to show you more of the adorable chunkies designed by The Digi Shack's own Marlene.
