Pink Lemonade Anyone?

How perfect is pink lemonade on a hot summer's day?

Love me some ice cold lemonade!

 

I was inspired to make a new tag by one of Tim Holtz's new dies.

 

 

I thought a yellow plaid background would be nice, and I used some pretty pink patterned paper for the lemonade.

I added some DCWV burlap paper, a white lacy doily, and lots of lovely flowers.

For the lemonade cup, I used a Tim Holtz die.

I was inspired by Cindy van Oorschot from the Lacy Sunshine Design Team
with her fabulous sack race card. 

 

For this tag, I used some pretty blue paper and added my stamp.

I also cut out some banners from some scrap paper I had, and added a

pretty glittery blue ribbon for 1st place.

Wild About You!

Good Afternoon!

Today has been such a nice quiet day to craft.

A little rain outside always makes me feel good.

 

I want to share a card I made using a Lacy Sunshine image.

 

 

I love Lacy Sunshine's Eleanor & Pickles!  Aren't they just adorable?

I used some paper from DCWV, had drawn some little bones, added some ribbon from my stash, and a bit of burlap.

As the finishing touch, I did a little bit of primitive looking

bone doodling around the edges.

Thinking of You...

I wanted to try something new this week.

Something definitely out of my comfort zone.

 

I decided to used several different techniques on this bookmark.

 

 

I printed a digital stamp on a page from an old book.

I also used a clear stamp to stamp the saying.

I used a stencil to stencil "Hope".

I used paste and a stencil to create a textured design,

then I used 3 colors of Distress Stain to cover it.

I also used some Antique White Frantage and some

old brass colored Embossing Frantage.

I used distress inks around the edge and a distressing tool.

After that, I added a little bit of ribbon.

Lastly, a few fibers to finish it all off.

 

I tried to combine a lot of different techniques on this one.
