Remember roller skating?

I do...well I remember falling on my behind more than I made it around the rink! Ahh the good times. IASC has two new images out today and I have made some cards playing with those awesome images...here they are.

She is colored with bic markers for the most part. I used a star vellum paper over a very light yellow to bring out the stars on the image. I'm not thrilled with the way I did these stars, though. I need to learn the motto-less is more!







The second image is just a fun to play with.


I love how this card turned out. I copied the sketch from another blogger named Jan. I love her cards. You will too if you check out her blog.
I had to research how skates were/are colored...hmm I just aged myself, didn't I? LOL  Anyway I love tan and turquoise together. I hope you enjoy it also.


IASC blog is here and to get these awesome images they are here in the store. There is a sale on some of the discontinued images for a short time. Go check it out!

Happy Crafting,
Shirley G

Valentine's Card, OWH Bloghop-November 2010

Image
Hi, I'm Shirley. I'm fairly new to making cards, about a year now. And very new to blogging. But I am very excited about both. You'll find more information on an AWESOME group I'm making cards for. It's called Operation Write Home, OWH for short.  They collect mine and many, many other talented card maker's cards and send those to our troops for their personal use to send home. It's give's me a warm and fuzzy feeling thinking I might have made someone smile with one of my cards. :) Below is my Valentine's Card I made for the OWH Bloghop. The heart pattern is in the CardMaker Magazine, March 2010 issue. I have been very busy making more Valentine's cards since this one. I see pink and red hearts in my sleep. ha ha Archway Cookies has pledged to match OWH Valentine cards collected by December 1st.  So now would be a great time to join our OWH family. However if you would like to send in Valentine's cards after this deadline please have the

Two new challenges

Hi everyone, Sorry I have been MIA lately. Some of you may know this, others not. My Dad was in the late stages of cancer and I have been spending as much time as I could with him. So no card making or blogging. Sadly he lost his battle last Thursday.  He will be missed terribly by many people. Yesterday I squeezed in some time to make two cards. The first is for Hambo . I didn't play last week so I didn't get that awesome caterpillar image so I'm using another of their's. Still awesome. The challenge is to use Bright Green and Pink. I think those are cool color combination, so I had a lot of fun with this challenge. The second is for D2D progressive challenge, Spotty Dotty Watering can. I love this image. I think I'm drawn to flowers, I just love coloring and creating with them. The sentiment is also a D2D one. If you haven't ever played in one of D2D challenges, I say go for it, NOW! Lots of cute images and you get a freebie each week you participate. He
