"Ooh La La!!"

Good Evening Everyone! I hope y'all are having a wonderful week so far! I have been coloring, cleaning, and getting my next class at Let's Create all ready to go! Whew... who would have thought it would so much fun to teach? Well it is... except for typing up notes; explaining how you do something that is like second nature. Oh wait... that isn't why you have stopped by today! LOL! (Got sidetracked and there wasn't even anything shiny in my area!)

Today, I have a creation to share with you for Paper Creations Ink's NEW Challenge... "Show Us Your Style Using Your Favorite Technique"! First let me start by telling you who our awesome sponsor is... Ike's Art and she will be giving away 5 Digi Images Of Choice to one lucky person! How cool is that? Be sure to pop on over to Ike's Art Shop and check out her wide variety of awesome images; there is something for everyone! Also you have until Tuesday, February 29, 2012 at 6pm CST to join us and "Show Us Your Style Using Your Favorite Technique"!

Lets see... My favorite techniques are coloring with my Prismacolor Colored Pencils, Fussy Cutting, and I took it one step further, I used my favorite go to embellishments... Lace, Ribbon, Half Pearls, and yep, you guessed it... STICKLES! I gotta have my glitter! LOL! Also lately I have been finding myself drawn to more risque and sexy images! Hmmm... what is up with that? I must be letting my inner woman out! Huh?

"Attention Sunshine"

I am redoing this blog post... it was lost due to Blogger's Issue!

Good Morning Everyone! I hope y'all are getting ready for the upcoming weekend! I sure am! I have some projects left on my to do list, but it sure is looking alot better than it did! LOL! Sometimes I wonder if we ever truly get caught up? Do you? Anyways, on with the show... I know you have places to go, people to see, and things to do! LOL!

This creation was created for Freshly Brewed Designs! It was a card kit that I purchased from Heather... to bring about the excitement of her NEW Summer Line of Rubber Stamps! Aren't they adorable? I think so, these are called "Summer Accessories" (you can find it under the cling mount red rubber). I can vouch for the stamps, wonderful deep etched red rubber, and they stamp out like a dream. So no worries when purchasing them from Freshly Brewed Designs. Be sure to stop in and see the whole line! I bet there will be some that you just have to have! I know I did! LOL!
