Happy 4th!!

I am so thankful to be in a country where I have opportunities.  Truly God has blessed America and for that I say THANK YOU!

I have been busy cranking out cards.  I have discovered a new digi artist name Kenny K. and I love his images.  I'm bummed that I missed out on being a part of his design team; however, hopefully there will be another chance.  Below are three cards I created using his fab images, colored with copics, the word art is from Elegant word art and various Spellbinder diecuts.  I have been inspired by the colors green and yellow so I have used that color on quite a few of my cards.  TFL.

Happy Birthday Hat

This card was inspired by the sentiment on the card.  I usually create the card then find the sentiment; however, Paulette over at Create w/TLC created this fab sentiment and immediately by brain started clicking (over 30 and your brain actually clicks instead of turns *gigl*).  Anyway, I used a variety of SU DP, some cool ribbon I had laying around and presto...this card was born.

I made another card using the "Happy Birthday" and "and many more" sentiment, as well.

I will more than likely use it as a show-and-tell card for my sister's 1st grade class.  I teach the little ankle biters how to make cards and this would be a cool b-day card to show them how to make.  Thanks Paulette for sharing and thanks to everyone for checking out my blog.

Hello Treasured Friend…

   
Greetings!
While good friends are hard to find, true friendship never dies. ~crg
This card was created using an image from Mo’s Digital Pencil.  I love this image because of the sweetness of the little girl and the cricket.  The color scheme actually came to me in a dream *gigl*.  I know…I eat, sleep and dream cards!  Anyways, I wanted a soft blue and cranberry accent color.  As usual, I colored using Copics.  I added some dewdrop gems to keep it clean and simple.
TFL!

More Creations…

Hello everyone,

My Mojo is working overtime today.  Here are some cards I did using Mo’s images, sentiments (expect one) from Create w/TLC and Copics. 

More Super Girls…

I loved this image when I bought it and now that Paulette @ Create w/TLC has created two awesome sentiments to go with it, I can’t stop using it.  Here they are in purple and blue…

Kansas…

Sometimes there is no place like home.  I’ve added my own twist to Dorothy and Toto’s popular tale by putting her in green and yellow.  I believe these colors compliment each other so well…inspired by Sprite’s lemon and lime colors.  However, I had to stick with the red shoes, because it is Dorothy after all.  I added some liquid pearls for accent and created my sentiment on the computer. 

Dancing…

I have always love to dance.  Dancing to me allows you to be free.  Last night I went to a Toby Mac and Chris Tomlin concert and boy did I dance.  I praised the Lord and danced away all my stress and worries.  This card represents how I see myself if I would have pursued dance.  I would most definitely have been a prima ballerina…

Well, that is all that I have for now.  I will probably create more, because I am on a roll, but will post them later.  I truly appreciate you looking at my work and I hope that you enjoy them as much as I do.

TFL (again)
