ESS Daisies

If you visit my blog often you know I tend to do more cutesy cards. Im not too big on flowers except daisies! I love this set from Flourishes Gerbera Daisy. I also finally got my hands on some BG Origins dp with I think goes perfect for daisies. Of course the daisy image is colored with copics and sponged with antique linen. I also added some chocolate pearls to the image. I used Tracy's ESS sketch for my layout which I think was also perfect for this image. I just love when my cards fall together so easily!LOL! Im really happy with how this turned out! I even pulled out some SU garden green cs! I cant tell you how long its been since I used that color!LOL!! I also paired the dp with SU chocolate chip and crushed curry. I even finished the inside of this card mainly because I knew the occassion I wanted to use it for. Im bad about not stamping a sentiment on card so I can have it if I need a last minute card.
I hope all you Mothers had a great day yesterday!! I spent the day with my Mom, sis, and 3 kiddos. I have made the mistake of teaching my kids how to play Skip-Bo and now thats all they want to do!LOL!! Have a great one!

Live the Sweet Life

Happy Sunday to you! Its a rainy day here in GA today but at least that means some stamp time for me!LOL! As I was browsing through challenges today I came across Karens Sunday sketch and decided to play along. I was in the mood to do something different today so I pulled out some Flourishes images I borrowed from Mama and colored up these peaches. Im really happy about how they turned out!! I even took pics of the copics I used today!LOL!! The yellow shading around the peaches I did with prismacolor pencils. I did the out of the nesties technique for the leaves. The dp I used is from SU but I cant find my catty so I dont remember the name but it was from last years catty (I think!LOL!) I'm really trying to use up the stacks I have of SU dp well really Im trying to use up the stacks of ALL the dp I have!LOL!! Ive put myself on restriction from buying ANY until I put a dent in my stack and its sooooo hard especially with the new MME dp!! I LOVE the Quite Contrary dp! Okay enough of my whining!LOL! Look I even finished the inside WITH coloring!! I NEVAH do that!LOL!!
Have a great day!
