By the Sea

Party Time Tuesdays is celebrating By the Sea this week!  My digi image is Happy Times - Beach Boy from The Paper Shelter.  Designer papers and stickers are by Authentique- The Fresh Collection  from The Paper Parade.

Drooling over Die-Cuts ~ and Ice Cream!

Tap, tap, tap ... anyone miss me out there? {lol} Sorry to have disappeared for a couple weeks. We took a fabulous vacation to Gettysburg, PA and Washington D.C. - my brain is swimming with info about soldiers, battlefields and past presidents now! Good times!

 Then after we returned home, our printer decided to stop working - ugh! As much as I love working with digis, one downside is you can't use them if your technology does not cooperate and you can't print them! Our new printer is officially installed and up and running as of today! This cute guy from the Happy Times digi set by The Paper Shelter was my first printing and it worked like a dream - {yay! plus huge sigh of relief}

Party Time Tuesdays is having a "Get Punchy with the Punches and Drool over Die Cuts" challenge this week.  I've used some of my favorite Spellbinders die-cuts - oval, diamond and a tab.  {grin}  His ice cream cone is coated with silver Glitter Liner from our sponsor Viva Decor.  And the jumbo tag and thick ribbon are from our other monthly sponsor Creating is Fun by Martha Pineda.  


Thanks for coming by for a visit today!

Flutterby Wednesday - FBW153 Open Challenge
Sketches by Carly - Sketch #29

You might need your sunglasses for this card!  It's a bit brighter than my normal fare. {LOL}   It's the first Wednesday of the month and that means Flutterby Wednesday has another incredible sponsor, The Paper Shelter.  I have used the image called Sophie in the Country on my card.  This week is everyone's favorite, an OPEN challenge ~ just remember to use a butterfly, fairy or angel on your card. 

Then please join us in welcoming Cindy Haffner to the Flutterby Team and Amy Young as today's Guest Designer!

Thanks for fluttering by!
