Workin' out....

I have a Fresh Brewed Designs card to share with you today:

I created this card with FBD Java Jill, Running Shoes, and Will work out for sentiment....

 

After doing nothing but eat and drink and not do any exercise all summer, my ds is back at school and there's no excuses for me.  I'm getting back on track of Healthy living!

 

Eat well, exercise, and stamp on..... 

 

HAVE A GREAT DAY!

 and our sponsor:

and my card using a super cute digi from MELJEN'S DESIGNS...

 

 

 and I had to add the "you color my world" sign, because this happened:

at the very end of my coloring, of course!  I was just going to blend in the cheeks a little more and I'd be done.....  be careful not to overfill your copic markers, like I did!  it was late and I needed to my card done, so I covered it instead of reprinting and recoloring.  I don't really like the sign, but it's done.  LOOK at that cute little artistic bear.  adorable.  :)

This week at Cupcake Inspirations, 223..... Birthday!

Our sponsor:

and the card I created using this super cute digi from Stamp and Create:

I actually ended up making a few of these for boys and girls, and have given them all away already:  had lots of kid birthdays lately. ;) I bought those buttons ("balloons") on clearance from Michael's, and thought they were perfect on that balloon (I think I printed at 50%).  Quick and easy.

2 new things at Fresh Brewed Designs!

#1:  did you know there are NEW digis at FBD?  There are!  Just released on Monday!  Go check them out! (tip: scroll down on home page)  . 

Here's a card I created using the Relax digi.  I thought I'd try something new (to me) and leave the image black and white except the sun.  I like how it turned out.  But the other DT ladies colored it all in and made some gorgeous cards, so be sure to stop on over and see.  :)

and

#2:  New Monthly Challenge is going on!  It's Ocean *or* Beach *AND* Glitter!  Print or stamp your Ocean or Beach theme cards and add some glitter!  Then upload it.  You could be a lucky winner :)

4 decades....

YIKES!  I just turned 40.  For my big 4-0, I chose to celebrate it casually with a dinner and movie with some of my favorite best friends.  After dinner, some of us went and saw The Heat.  Ohmygosh, that was a funny movie!   

 

Using some stuff I got in the scrapbook circle July kit along with some stickers I picked up at Michael's, I like how my 40 celebration LO turned out.  :) 

TFL!

scrabook circle.... LO's

I really admire the scrapbooking art by Rebecca K who is also on the DT for Scrapbook Circle.  I just love what she does with their kits.  I couldn't take it anymore.. I had to buy June and July's kit on a 2 month membership, so I look forward to August as well.  :)  I didn't sign up before because they don't provide cardstock, but they do provide awesome papers and lots of coordinating embellishments (and I have easy access to scrapbooking cardstock locally).  Plus, it's an active club with a blog, newsletter - full of inspiration and use of their kits, and contests, etc, which the other kit club I have recently joined does not- much to my disappointment (and I haven't been overly in love with the kits either and late shipments, but... it's all good- scrapbooking stuff, right!? I have been enjoying and using it, though, so don't misconstrue- the kit club is great, but i'm eagerly waiting for my membership to be up with them, and will continue on with scrapbook circle- a better fit for me, I think).  :)

Here are two LO's I created with the July Scrapbook Circle Kit:

I actually loved how Rebecca used that yellow sunburst like paper and feathers, so this LO was definitely inspired by her:

I often post pictures on facebook using collages from www.picmonkey.com so I just have them printed like that sometimes, too.  An easy way to scrap several photos on a lo.  :)  Here's this year's Easter LO using the same kit with the addition of some jolie's and bling I picked up at Michael's.  :)

TFL!
