Happy Saturday!

I thought I’d share a recent card I made, that makes me happy! LOL! I need happy.

 I decided that I’m going to send this to the team at the hospital, that made my night nothing but pleasant, considering the circumstances! We spent last night in the ER with my 10yo daughter Alexa. She has the flu and pneumonia :C This will go the the hopsital wiht my letter of thanks.

A gift for you

 I think this image is just beyond sweet.I am in LOVE with the Gillian Roberts line from Stampavie.

Each one is adorable, but THIS one is my favorite, so far. Maybe because it reminds me of something I bought recently. I purchased a stuffed Dog (I bought like 5!) named Colby, from KAY Jewelers. (It inspired my entire design) Part of the proceeds ($7 to be exact) from EVERY sale benefit St. Jude Children’s Cancer Research!! So if there is a KAY near you, you can buy the SUPER cute Colby dog too, for a good cause! I have to say I was VERY disappointed to NOT see this promotion on their site, and the ONLY thing I could find to share, that showed you the dog and the promotion was THIS!

Doesn’t Colby look just like this bear? I know! Colby is a dog, but to me they look alike.

 This image is Bear & Robin. I colored him with my Copic markers. If you don’t own these yet…WHY?! I love my Copic’s. Use them EVERYDAY! LOVE. I honestly can’t even consider coloring with anything else. I totally feel they are worth every EXPENSIVE penny spent I also used the colorless blender to get my hat pattern. I added a pom pom, and made the hat cuff 3D as is the bird. You cannot see it but the “snow” on the ground is a really pretty glitter I got in the KIDS section at Michael’s! DON’T buy those LITTLE tubes of glitter in the stamp/scrapbook section of your craft store! They are overpriced! Go to check out the KID craft section FIRST, where you get a HUGE bottle, at about the same cost (sometimes cheaper) as a TINY bottle. I swear it’s the SAME stuff. I also airbrushed my sky. Then I dotted my background with my Singlo white gel pen. I had this silver snowflake “table” confetti from Target last year, and it makes the BEST card accents!! I can’t recall who makes the paper :C Sorry.

 Well that is all for me.  In the meantime I hope you and your family are happy & healthy during this terrible season of germs!
