Hog Wild!

Here I am with my second DT project for this week's anything goes challenge at Inspiration Destination. We'd love to have you join in on the fun! We've got Eureka Stamps and Robyn's Fetish Digital Stamps and More as our two fabulous sponsors! 

This is my project using a fun image from Robyn's Fetish. I meant to go country with this image. You should see what I've got going on in my 'Ema-gination' but alas, my hands aren't cooperating. I knew once I started inking the smaller heart, my hands weren't gonna let me do the country thing. But I like how this came out and I hope you do too!

Best Friends

Hiya, blogging buddies! Here I am a day late and a dollar short but I made it! This is my DT project for Wednesday's launch of our weekly anything goes challenge at Inspiration Destination.
I've an excellent reason for being so incredibly late this week! I'm having a bit of trouble with some painful hand joints. I suppose I'll be one of the lucky ones in life who not only has to live with chronic leukemia, I'm gonna have arthritis! With the advances in medicine we see these days, I'm sure any discomfort will be short-lived.
In the meantime, I'm here to show you this fun card I made with a tutorial I found. It's from Pam Sparks of Expressions with Heart. She has this amazing easel card with two mini easel add ons tutorial.

A5 Wooden Fences from Dutch Doobadoo

Grass Die Set from Top Dog Dies

Lace ribbon from fabric department at Hobby Lobby
Petite daisy punch from Michael's

Printed card stock was a gift from a 'friend'
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'll be honest... it's not completely finished! lol I still wanted to add some more flowers, some popping up even higher than the ones along the edge. I need to find a sentiment that will work with this. I also have a banner I really wanted to use but I just couldn't bear the pain any longer and stopped here.
I showed it to my sister and her two visiting granddaughters. One asked, "Why are the girls in front so dressed up and the girls on the bench wearing shorts?" And the other one piped in with "Silly! The girls in front are daydreaming that they are wearing shorts sitting on a bench at the park instead of just coming out from church!" lol :) Kids! I just love them! Until they turn about 14... but by then... they are no longer kids... they are teenagers! Yikes!

Birthday Wishes!

Here I am for the final time today! lol One of the sponsors is Inky Impressions. I love the absolutely adorable images from Nicole!
I found a wonderful folded card tutorial at Whiff of Joy. It is a Fold Card Tutorial and it was all written in CM and not INCHES! I cannot tell you the dilemma that caused me! Until I saw that on the paper trimmer, right below the inch marks, were CM marks! Ha! I spent almost half an hour online looking for a converter! Sometimes... my eyes... they see only what they want to see! So sad! lol
So here's the card all folded and tied up! lol

A closer look at the image:

Here is a closer look at the image used inside:
