Sunday afternoon!!

  I have had a blast coloring some of my new images and it's been a very peaceful and relaxing day for me.  I am working on two new Design Team projects, so you will have to wait a little bit before you see what I am working on, so be sure to come back and there are lots of new and exciting things coming up very fast!

  I do have one challenge card to share and I'm here to do so now.   This card was created with a few challenges in mind and was started for a color combo challenge over at SSC.  The colors for this challenge are - Light Green, Dark Green, Red and Brown and I started my card with a wonderful 'Flower Ring' image from Isabella's Sketchbook.  I colored with Copic Markers in shades of red and green and used my 'Chocolate' Spica Pen, for the floral stems.  I added some gems in a deep brown color and also used Red Stickles to add sparkle and shine to the center of each flower.  I used my Copic ABS system to spray paint a very light green background for my image and then use one of the Spellbinder dies to cut it out.  Lastly, I added some dark brown ribbon and some paper from the Spiceberry set, I have fallen in love with. 


     My card is also being submitted to the following challenges:
   Did you happen to notice my new watermark?  This is the very first time I used it and it's brand new today.   It was designed by Wendy at 'Delightful Custom Blog' and I wanted to give her a shout out and say thank you again for your wonderful designs.  These are my newest watermarks and I love them both.  The first one is for my personal cards and challenges --
And this one will be used with my Design Team projects
for 'A Day for Daisies'!


     I was so happy with the others she has designed, that I want back for more.  If you are looking for a new Watermark or looking to change up your blog a bit, I highly recommend Wendy to you.  She also designed my blog header, as well as, the Watermark I use for my Baby Bud Design Team creations   If you hop on over to the blog HERE, you'll see samples of her work - you'll even see my new watermarks!   I LOVE them all and think you'll be equally pleased with her work.  I also want to thank my friend, Colleen, who recommended Wendy to me!   It's been a pleasure to work with Wendy and I am also a member of her Digital Delights Group  over at Simply Scrapping Crafts.


   And now I am off to post my card to the challenge site and then work on my next project  - Dinner!

A Little About Me

My photo
Northeastern, Massachusetts, United States
Purple is my favorite color and ironically - Purple is the Awareness Ribbon color for Fibromyalgia, a chronic illness I lived with for over 18 years. In, March of 2015, I was diagnosed with Stage IV Lung Cancer which had spread to my brain. I am fighting hard to win this battle and determined to beat it. I have a amazing Oncology Team, along with the LOVE and SUPPORT of all my family and friends! I am a Mom to two grown sons, Alex is now 25 and married to Acacia, my wonderful new "Daughter" and the parents to my precious Grand-Daughter Harper, and Brian amazingly is 30 and now lives in San Diego. My boys are the greatest loves of my life. Hubby, me and our two "Pups", Skye and Zeva, two adorable Chiweenies we rescued in 2012, all live very happily in a tiny coastal town in Massachusetts. We lost our dear "Scoutie", a Purebred Dachshund, in April of 2015. I still miss him and will forever cherish his memory. I am an avid card-maker and totally love every minute I can spend in my craft room. It's become my passion, a wonderful way to relax and is my form or "therapy".
