With Sympathy!

Hi Everyone,

It's that time again for new and exciting challenge over at the Outlawz in the Copic Challenge Group!  There are so many things that life may throw our way, giving us the opportunity to be a great friend, wife or parent and do what we do best, comfort them!! There is nothing more touching than to have a handmade card to show just how much we care! Which leads me into this week's challenge, 'Sympathy or Thinking of you!'  Here is my card for a little inspiration!

This little cutie is by S.W.A.L.K stamps.  She is so sweet! All of their stamps remind me of Precious Moments!

Our sponsor for the month of February is our own DT member, Carla.  Carla is giving a $15 certificate to Mo's Digital Pencil to one randomly-chosen participant in our February challenge! Thanks Carla 

I am looking forward to seeing all the amazing talent out there!! Thanks for stopping by!

Hi Friends,

It's Friday and thanks to 30cm of snow,  schools were closed and the girls got to extend their weekend!! I love snow days because I get to sleep in and then get up and lounge in pj's all day!! The girls had lots of fun trying new recipes that I had the pleasure of trying with my good friend and teamie Jo on facetime today!

We also have a new theme starting today over at the Outlawz in the Copic Challenge Group!  I'm sure you all could guess what that might be considering we are about to celebrate it on the 14th!  None other than Valentines Day!! This day has even more significance for me as it is also my hubby's birthday! Here is his card for a little inspiration!

Our sponsor for the month of February is our own DT member, Carla.  Carla is giving a $15 certificate to Mo's Digital Pencil to one randomly-chosen participant in our February challenge! Thanks so much  Carla! 

 

I can't wait to see what you create! Don't be shy and let's see your mushy side!! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Curious Alice!

Hi Everyone,

It's time for a new MayzyArt Challenge and this time we're going to do something a little bit different.  We have a guest sponsor!

 

 

Beansie Doodles is a new shop run by one of Mayzy's best friends who is just getting her toes into the digital stamping world.  She's got some super-cute stamps available in her shop and, as a special during the challenge, is offering a 10% discount using the coupon code MAYZY!!

 

Typical MayzyArt Challenge prizes will apply, only this time the Grand Prize winner will be selected ONLY from people who use a Beansie Doodle stamp and will be chosen by Sharreldine, the shop owner.  Prizes will be awarded from the Beansie Doodles shop, rather than the MayzyArt shop.

 

The theme is 'Anything Goes'

Here is my card for a little inspiration!!

 

 

Sharreldine's images are so much fun to colour!  You can find her shop here and be sure to check out all her wonderful creations!

 

I look forward to seeing what you come up with!

 

Thanks for stopping by!!

Sunshine and Butterflies!

Hi Friends,

Ok, maybe some of the mild temperatures have got me dreaming of the spring and that was the inspiration for this week's card along with this week's challenge theme, 'Inspired by Birthstones'.  My birthday is in November and my birthstone is Topaz, which is a yellowish orange stone.

The birthstone for November is the

TOPAZ

Found in places such as Brazil, Nigeria and Sri Lanka, the Topaz comes in a variety of colours. Probably the most widely known are light blue and tawny-yellow but there are several other colours of topaz too. It's associated with constancy, loyalty, faithfulness and friendship.

 Be sure to stop by the Outlawz and play this week in our Copic Challenge Group!  Just in case you are wondering the colour of your birthstone, you can refer to the chart below.

 

  Our very own Carla is offering a $15 gift certificate from Mo's Digital Pencil for one randomly-chosen participant in our February challenges! 

I can't wait to see what you come up with this week!  Thanks so much for stopping by!!

Hi Everyone,

We are celebrating everyone's favourite 'Anything Goes' over at the Outlawz in the Copic Challenge Group!  But this week you can add the twist if you like, which is Christmas.  So before you pack away all those Christmas papers, why not do one more card!!  My card today is by Kraftin Kimmie and I like to call him Chilly Willy!

Isn't the look on his face just priceless! I worked with a snow pen for the first time and coloured in the sweater with the copic gel pens and then darkened them with the copic marker!!  I am happy with how it turned out!!

Our very own Dawn is sponsoring this month with a $15 gift cetificate to the Etsy shop!!
