Whimsical Wednesdays Challenge #17~~ Humor LOL!!

Morning Bloggers!!

It is time again for another Whimsical Wednesday Challenge.

Ready for this one....Challenge #17 is...

"Sense of Humor"

For this challenge you must include something funny, whether a funny photo or image and/or include some wording related to humor such as laugh, giggle, chuckle, funny, hysterical.

You get the picture...right. Lets make the DT laugh :)

So alittle background before I share my LO.

I posted awhile back about going to a birthday party with my son and the party having Nickle City Reptiles as their entertainment.

Not only do the kids LOVE seeing all the animals that Jeff brings...the adults LOVE listening to how funny Jeff is.

I attached a video link so you can see a small glimpse at how funny Jeff is.

He goes around locally and does birthday parties, the fair and school events~~ BUT~~ he also is a pretty regular Late Night with Jimmy Fallon guest.

Cool huh...so for my LO I did one of "Rockey" ~  the American Alligator

When Jeff brought Rockey out it was not funny :)

The kids were excited but screamed also. Not many of us get to see an alligator up close.

It just so happened that Rockey was in the mood to perform that day.

Doesn't it look like he is smiling?

The letters were cut with my cricut from Cuttin' Up and I added some white gel pen doodles

This picture cracks me up...LOL.. it really looks like he is laughing :)

Crazy that Jeff was able to put Rockey on his back and tickle him....actually I think he was just rubbing his belly but it looks like he is being tickled.

I added a couple of info circles as my journaling using my 2" circle punch.

I inked around the outside with coffee bean pigment ink.

The rub ons are from DCVW~ Safari Kids

Here is my alligator from Create a Critter. He is too cute not to put on this.

I embossed him with my Tiny Mosaic cuttlebug folder.

So there you have it :)

Do you think this is funny?!?!

Hope so and hope you will join us this week over at Whimsical Wednesdays  for our "Sense of Humor" challenge.

Remember you have 2 weeks to enter. Don't forget to check out the other DT's LO's. I know they are all so funny and so very inspirational.

Thanks for stopping by!



Another Christmas Card~ Knobby Knee Christmas Wagon Bugaboo

Hi Bloggers!

I am on a roll with these super cute Bugaboo Digi's.

Here is another Christmas card I made featuring Knobby Knees Christmas Wagon Digi from Bugaboo.
Isnt he just so cute?!?!?

He was colored with my copics.
I added some stickles to his hat and alittle gel pen doodles. I love the way the gel pen adds just that extra little something :)

I did enter this over at CDAC for BUGWW#12
Bugaboo Wacky Wednesday Challenge #12.
It was my first time over there and entering so hopefully I did it correctly.

So I think my cricut is feeling alittle neglected so hop back tomorrow for another Whimsical Wednesday Challenge.

Thanks for stopping by and see you all tomorrow :)

Get Funky! Challenge w/ Bugaboo Astronaut

Hi everyone!

I have a challenge card to share with you.

I used all freebies for this one :)

The paper is from Get Funky and was this months freebie. It came with the stars and the sentiment.

The digi is Bugaboo's freebie friday image.

So details on this card....it is A2 size

I colored my digi with my copics and added some glossy accents to the helmet.

A little Twine and white gel pen doodles and

The "far out" stamp is from Changiton Monkey Space Stamp.

This is being entered into Get Funky~

Thanks for stopping by :)

Harry Potter Journal w/Bugaboo

Hi Bloggers!

Hoping everyone is enjoying that today is FRIDAY!

I am having a hard time believing it is almost August....where has our summer gone?

My kiddos get their teacher letters tomorrow and my phone will ring from morning till night with "who did you get".

Well one of my youngest son's friends is a HUGE Harry Potter fan. When I say HUGE is mean he talks about Harry Potter from morning till night and knows everything there is to know about Harry!

He is 8 and has just finished the 5th book...he is so proud and can not wait to get started on number 6.

I was telling him about the journal I made for my other son and he said he would really like a journal also :)

I made it for him and he will get it probably Monday or Tuesday.

I used a digi's from Bugaboo Stamps that I purchased awhile ago and had never printed and colored.

Harry was colored with my copics then cut and pasted to the front cover.

The paper is from Creative Imaginations~ Harry Potter line and I have yet to see it again :(

I took a notebook I found one clearance, painted the covers and distressed it alittle to give the look of a worn book.

This is the inside back cover with Hermione.

I did add some stickers that came with the kit..like Harry Potter on the front cover and these on this page.

I wanted to keep the book simple because it is a gift for an 8 year old.

I just LOVE how the digi's turned out and I'm loving my copics more and more every time I color with them. I do have to invest in a few more colors and they are on the LIST :)

The one that grows every time I see something new come out!

Thanks for stopping by.

Have a GREAT night and see you all tomorrow!

I'm Sorry

Hi Everyone!

I feel like I have been neglecting my blog lately. I know I have posted but I have had some creativity blocks the past few days.

I have all these ideas...all these challenges I want to enter yet every time I sit down to create I draw a blank or my idea doesn't seem to work :(

My computer has been acting up...my files doing funky things so maybe that has something to do with it.

Anyways I did manage to do some coloring today and I used this super cute Bugaboo freebie from a few weeks ago.

Don't you just love the knobby knees kids?!?!?

This very simple card was colored with my copics and the sentiment says it all.

Sorry about the short post...not visiting and commenting and hopefully my mojo will return!

Have a good night!

Whimsical Wednesdays Challenge #16~ Fun with Folds

Good Morning Bloggers!

It is time for another Whimsical Wednesdays Challenge

This weeks challenge is~~ Fun With Folds

Create a CARD that is anything but a shape or A2 style. For example an easel, gatefold, waterfall.

For my card I made a Twisted Easel Card

Here it is closed~ It is an A2 size but when you open it...

It looks like this!!!

I love making these fun and VERY easy cards....

Here are the details to make your own...

Start with your base color cut at 4 1/4 x 9 3/4

Score at 5 1/2

Then score diagonally~ corner to inside corner

Fold on the score lines and decide how you want your card to twist. Cut a top layer at 4 1/4 x 5 1/2

Attach that top layer to your diagonal fold. You can see mine attached here. It makes an A2 size card when folded up

But here is what it looks like opened!

Now decorate away!

For my project today I used the Simply Charmed Cartridge and cut the baby buggy at 3 1/2".

The bottle and pacifier are cut at 2"

The sentiment is cut at 1 1/2".

I added PKS~ Simple Sallies to the baby, bottle and pacifier.

Blinged up the wheels with Bo Bunny brads.

Added 2 stamped images with a baby stamp set from the dollar bin :)

Alittle stickles to the cut sentiment and some white gel pen doodles around the wheels.

So I hope you like my Twisted Easel.

I would love to see you join us this week over at Whimsical Wednesdays. Make sure you visit Whimsical Wednesdays to see the other DT's projects and link up your Fun Fold Card.

Thanks for stopping by!



Time for Another Digi Monday over at Paper Playtime!!

Morning everyone!!

It is time again for another Digi Monday over at Paper Playtime!

This week's theme is Summer~ How appropriate given the temps here have been in the 90's and sooooo hot!

I was able to work with 2 different stamp companies this week

Di's Digi Downloads

&

Anary

My first card is from Di's Digi Downloads

I really enjoyed coloring this image...Every chance we get we heads down to our family's summer home and my boys LOVE to fish so this was made with them in mind.

I colored this image with my copics~which I love working with and feel I am getting better each and every time I color (nothing like a pat on the back right?!?!?)

The sentiment is computer generated and the embellishments I found at Joanne on clearance.

I did add some glossy accents to the water but I think it is really hard to see in the picture.

Next I was able to work with Anary and Florist Gilli

.

Isnt she just the sweetest?! I took to the sentiment and really made a very simple card.

Again I colored her with my copics and added a little white gel pen on her cheeks and in her hair.

The sentiment is from My Creative Time~This and That stamp set.

I hope you enjoyed my Digi Monday cards and will play along with us over at Paper Playtime.

Thanks for stopping by and can not wait to see what your create :)
