Watering the flowers

This Magnolia Tilda has the hose out, all ready to water the flowers, although she may also be thinking of playing in it, to cool off in the summer heat !!  The upper corners are dotted swiss candi-dots.  Thanks for coming in to view my card creation, and happy summer to you.

Surrounded by poppies

I love this image from Ching-Chou Kuik, as I think poppies are a magnificent flower, even though I've found I have absolutely no luck in growing them.   I've colored with prismas and added stardust stickles to her wings.   That's a strip of lace along the bottom, with black ribbon centered atop the lace.  A bit more of a lacy effect by layering a couple doilies behind my image, adding the "love" die cut, and then a couple added butterflies completes my creation.

Me and my sidekick

These party gals from Stamping Bella are so perfect together, and this verse also comes with the stamp.  Coloring has been done with prismas and then stickles added for a bit of pizzazz.   I think the remaining embellishments speak for themselves.   Thanks for coming in to view my creation.

Bubbles galore

Uh-oh, this pup doesn't look very happy in his bath, but that may be cause the water's too cold, since it's outdoors with the hose, instead of the indoor tub!    He comes from the Bugaboo store and I've colored with prismas, adding stickles to the bubbles and wash water for that nice sparkle, and adding a few sequins off to the side.

Lovely rose for you

This bear from QKR Stampede looks totally smitten, and he sure is adorable, isn't he !!  I've colored with prismas/gamsol, and faux stitched around my frame, adding a couple pearl hearts.   I used my favorite filigree corner die cut and then cut the letters with my old, big red Sizzix.
Thanks so much for coming in to view my card.

Birthday basket of love

Conie Fong has some of the cutest images, and she's one of my favorite digital artists.   I've colored this image with prismas and added a few stardust stickles highlights.   Wanting to keep the main focus on this cutie pie, I kept the design simple, by just layering die cut oval frames and adding a die cut verse also.   She just couldn't be sweeter.

Champagne bubbly

We have double bubbles here, between the champagne and the bubble bath, for whatever it is this cute Lili of the Valley bunny pair are celebrating!  And, don't you just love the cute rubber ducky at the edge.  I think the embellishments pretty much speak for themselves.   Thanks for coming in to view my card creation.
