I used Besties Fluffy Sunshine Girl - I created a Bendy card. Jen of Koala T Crafts did a tutorial recently you can find it here. I adapted mine a bit, but the concept is the same.

 Close-up of the card.

 Side views of the card so you can see the crane and the little jumping fish.



For my next card I used Besties Twinkle Toes Troll - I created a layered card. I did a technique call Distress Oxide Ink water stamping that Jennifer Mcguire showed on her blog and on her YouTube Channel  Jennifer Mcguire Ink recent for my background.

 Changed the lighting so you can see the background better.

I hope you join the challenge it's a good one!

Thanks for stopping by - leave me a comment tell me which one is your favorite.

My Hubby is really supporting my new design team work. He bought me these wonderful card magazines. Which came with beautiful stamps and dies; along with amazing ideas.



Then, my mother's day gift arrived. I new it would be late we agree to do gifts for mother & father's day late this year. We had other things going on during that time. I am very excited about the 150 Prismacolor Premier Color Pencil Set!!! Oh, I also got blending pencils and eraser with it. I also got my tech on with an external hard drive. So, I can start creating videos(Yikes!!! - I can do it!?! Right?!?) and other stuff.



I told you so exciting for me. I am also working on my DT cards and layouts; getting ready for the start date of July 1st for most of them. I already started with Jo's Scrap Shack.

We have amazing challenges and prizes be sure to check it out. Jo's Scrap Shack Fun-day Friday Challenges

It's been a fun filled and exciting couple of weeks for me. I was chosen for Creative Inspirations Design Team, Jo's Scrap Shack Design Team  (I already started) & now I was offered a spot on the Koala T Crafts Blog Design Team.



I won a Prize from Kraftgali! (See post below)  and then, my hubby treated me to some fun shopping. At Michaels - I was so happy to find some Distress Oxide Ink pads. I also got some stamps, stencils, flair, wood veneer alpha & coffee cups, stickers, storage boxes - not shown, alcohol marker -( Mike's brand to try out) & lots of adhesive. Which is not enough - there's never enough adhesive.


I hope you are have a good month, week, day, hour! I hope to be post a project real soon.
