Miss You, A Lot!

 

 

Make It Monday #165 with Saturated Canary

 

Hello all, so happy to have you here!

 

It's always exciting around here when Saturated Canary is our sponsor. Krista's images are beloved by those who enjoy coloring with markers. This little cutie, Angels Among Us, reminds me so much of my own daughter. We all feel she is an angel among us in our family. This card is for her as she's a freshmen at college, and like all college students she enjoys receiving care packages. I always tuck a handmade card in the box as well as a few treats for her and my grand dog, Rosie. :)

 

 

 

 

The sentiment (so true!) was spelled out with Tim's Idea-o-logy

sticker letters. She's colored with Copic's and the paper is by

Cosmo Cricket-Early Bird collection.

(Another paper pad which I tend to hoard save)

Make It Monday #156

Hi everyone!

 

Time for a new linky party to open at Make It Monday.  

 

Our sponsor for the next week is Saturated Canary and I used Witchy Waitress on my Halloween card. Isn't she a cutie? 

 

I have been swamped by life issues again and I want to take a minute to say how sorry I am for being tardy with commenting here at MIM and to those who have been so kind to leave a comment for me. Every week I think things will slow down and become normal again but no such luck yet. I will be by soon to visit all of your lovely blogs.

S - Mini Layered Stars Stencil, SC Skateboarding Digi, Satin Chevron Ribbon

Make It Monday #147

**The Squirrel and The Fox DT project HERE**

Hello and welcome!

 

A new linky party is open at Make It Monday and we have a new DT member to announce. Yay! Michelle invited the talented Kerry Hocking to replace Meihsia who stepped down a few weeks ago. I'm so excited to welcome Kerry aboard and I can't wait to share this creative journey with her!

Our current sponsor is Saturated Canary and I'm using Winnie Goes Camping on my mixed media art journal page. Needless to say I love Krista's images and this set is great for building a scene because you receive three images (Winnie, vintage camper and campsite sign) to play with. It reminded me of all the camping adventures in my early childhood. We had a Chinook camper and our campground was the great outdoors in Alaska. I'll never forget the trip when my oldest sister rolled down the side of a mountain. It wasn't a rocky mountain otherwise it could have been disastrous. She was bruised and sore for a while but thankfully okay. She certainly scared the dickens out of everyone!

 My forest was created with this fun little die.
 

 

 My Pick of the Week (with a slight twist) is...

 

#1 Loz

 

I love this carousel!!! She mentioned in her post that she had trouble following the directions so instead of quitting she simply figured it out on her own. Way to go Loz, the pay off is this amazing paper project. Now for the twist, I also chose two other amazing projects to highlight as my POTW and they just happen to be by the very crafty Loz as well. Take a look at these...

 

entry #2 which she made for her fur baby :)

 

and last but not least is entry #11 with her awesome Chair Step card.

Thanks for always playing along at MIM and for sharing your inspiration Loz!
