I had so much fun coloring my last project that I decided to color another one, this one being Sunbonnet Fireman’s Puppy.  I also used some accessory stamps… Cupcakes ‘n Books (just the books but double stamped) and Birthday Sentiments. This time I colored the fireman with blues and yellows for a little mix up.

This was a quick simple boy’s card and I like that the sentiment can be interpreted different way.  The dragonflies are chipboard embellishments from Make it Crafty – always a favorite of mine!  Thanks for dropping by again and have a great weekend!

I created this project for the Anything Goes Challenge at Little Miss Muffet Stamps!  It truly is Anything Goes and we love to see what you create.  😀

That little boy is Sunbonnet Fireman’s Fire Hose rubber stamp from Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  He was so much fun to color and gave me a good excuse to use lots of red.  Because it was a boy card, I tried to keep the embellishments simple and not so fru-fru.  The dragonflies are on the border of that since their wings are lacy but the theme was appropriate for a boy so hopefully it works.

I actually made a little mistake while coloring this one up.  Can you see it?  I’ll give you a hint… I fixed it digitally on the square-on project so you can only see it in the second photo.  Do you see it now?  Yep, it’s there.  But it’s one of those things that if I hadn’t pointed it out you’d never would have seen it.  Those are the best kinds of mistakes.  LOL

Here’s a bit of something extra that might be fun for you or someone you know.  This is our rock collection that my daughter started on one of our cross-country road trips.  We were traveling over the Rocky Mountains and noticed all the different colors of soil.  So on our way back, we stopped at various places and collected a gamut of samples. 

Our most recent sample is the dark reddish one which we collected while visiting New Mexico.  We’ve also been able to add a few to the collection from donations – such as the fossils.  This has been a fun activity!

Thanks for dropping by my blog today and I hope you have a wonderful week.  Make sure to add one of your projects this week into the Anything Goes Challenge and share what you’ve been up to!

Happy Easter Weekend!  It’s a wonderful spring week where I’m at and we’re enjoying all the usual festivities of spring including gardening, playing outside and visiting with family.  🙂

For this project I’ve used Fancy Sunbonnet Easter rubber stamp from Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  I stamped it three times so I could color portions and make it 3D.  I forgot what this technique is called but I know it has a name.  LOL  I had colored the image with out choosing my papers first for coordinating colors.  So when it came time to putting a card together I was holding my breath whilst searching for a match.  He he he

I hope everyone is having a great weekend and thank you for taking the time to visit my blog.  Happy Easter!

LMMS is sponsoring CRAFT Challenge this March with their new challenge opening today. The theme is “Mother’s Day or Female” and I decided to go for the pink!

On this project I used Fancy Sunbonnet Birthday Cake rubber stamp available at Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  The papers are left over from some Valentines project and I splashed it up with some blue and red accents.  The love wax seal was another one of the embellishments that I created back in February and this one turned out really nicely.  I was finally getting the hang of melting the wax evenly – so I’ll be a pro for next time.  LOL

Thanks for coming by today and we hope that you can participate in the CRAFT Challenge with us.

There is a new LMMS Challenge starting today and it’s our favorite theme… Anything Goes!  This gave me the chance to color an image that’s been on my list since it’s release last year. 

This is Sunbonnet Fireman Cat in a Tree rubber stamp available at Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  I placed it on a smaller card so I could mail it easy then tried to keep all the embellishments on the flat side.  Sometimes that’s hard for me to remember until I place the card in an envelop and send it off.  LOL  I stamped it with gray and then used bright colors that would hopefully be appealing to a boy.  However, my daughters have a firefighter’s costume that they wear all the time – there is something about the axe that they enjoy.  Bang, crash, thunk on just about everything… the table, the chair, etc.

Hope you have a chance to play along in the Anything Goes Challenge and share us what you’ve been working on lately.  Thank you for coming by and have a wonderful week!

I’ve been on a roll this month and have managed to create more projects then the last couple months combined – it’s been great!  So today, I’m excited to share another one of those… this one is using Grandpa’s Wrinkles rubber stamp available at Little Miss Muffet Stamps.  I just love this guy and his sentiments!  LOL

I also shared this on the LMMS Challenge blog where you’ll find lots of new information regarding Week 3 of the Birthday Release Celebration.  If you get a chance… click on over there or pop into the FB Group for the update.  Have a wonderful weekend!
