FS123 Edwin's out to play!

I don't give my Edwins enough chance to get out and play! Today's featured stamper on SCS is Sumtoy. I chose a card she made in April. The link is in my splitcoast gallery, but it had the angled panel and the card had motion. That's what I wanted to CASE. I don't know about you , but it is SO hard for me to angle a panel like this! I think I have a need to make everything nice and square to the card base! Anyone out there like that?
Thanks to Sumtoy for giving me a push out of my box (literally!)!

Lots to show this week! Monday is the Copic Creations Challenge and Wednesday is a Blog Hop for Angel's Landing! Hope you can stop back for a visit!

And...I'm so happy to say that I heard from Linda S. and I have a winner! I'm putting a little package together for her today which includes the Post It notepad and box.
Thanks for playing, Linda!

It is a gorgeous day here in Western New York, a perfect day, in fact and I'm headed to the deck to read for awhile!

Birthday Bouquet!

Good morning to ya and happy midweek!! Thought I'd show you a card I made for our Western New York Spring Fest gathering. That smart Tracy had a birthday card contest with all cards being donated to her church's sunshine group! Now wasn't that smart! I happily participated!
The contest was won by the FABULOUSLY TALENTED Michele Ghent! Her card was spectacular and everyone loved it! It is the one I voted for! Anyway here is Tilda fromt he Butterfly collection with her basket of sparkly flowers to wish someone a Happy Birthday! Diana has MANY of these stamps available NOW and at the best prices! Please feel free to leave here and visit Magnolia-licious! I used Mellow Moss and Pretty in Pink with Basic Grey's Porcelain papers. I made one of my favorite new things-a stickpin for embellishment! This is a favorite layout of mine! You get to see lots of the dp but it accomodates a larger image too. I think this card was 5x5 inches square.
Here she is in her close up shot!


And the inside with this OLD, but well used sentiment and more Porcelain paper!
Thanks for visiting! My count is ever growing and so is my gratitude to those of you who visit and comment! THANK YOU!!
Have a wonderful Wednesday!

Happy Mother's Day!

Good afternoon! I thought I would get this finished and posted this morning, but you know how things can go! This Tilda is from the Chasing Butterflies collection and isn't she cute! I used the sketch challenge from SCS this week which worked nicely, I think. I just got the SU eyelet edge punch and love it! The dp is from Basic Grey's Wisteria collection and is even more beautiful IRL!


Here's the close up for you! She was stamped on white (Papertrey Ink's) with tuxedo black and then colored with copics. After that she was painstakingly cut out. It's impossible to cut out around all the roses so I did what I could then filled in color with a lavender grey marker. I glued her onto a piece of dp from my 6x6 pack. No dimensionals this time-the image was too fragile!
Mother's Day isn't too different from other days for me anymore. I miss my mom each and every day of every year since she passed on January 8, 2005. I love you, Mom.
My husband treats me special, though, even though I am mom to fur babies, currently, Charlie and Violet, our two cats.
I hope YOU'VE been treated special today by those who love you and whom you love!
