**** CAS ****

 Hi folks,

Hope all is well with you.

It's time for a new challenge at

Sweet Stampin

where the theme is "CAS Cards"

This card was put together quickly using a digital image that I pre-coloured with copics and filed away waiting for the right moment.  The signature is KJ ..not sue if he is still creating but I sure did enjoy colouring his fun images. The sentiment is from the MFT Pawty Time set.

**** A little something for the Children *****

 Hi folks,

Time for a new challenge at 

Sweet Stampin 

where the theme starting today is 

"Something for the Children"

I have used a stamp from the Globeland Cartoon Birds set, coloured with Copics.
I thought this would suit an older child with a sense of humour.

Summer is upon us with a heatwave and smoke from the devastating wild fires.
It is truly heartbreaking to see all the distruction. 
Our hearts go out to all those who have lost their homes and those who are fighting the fires.  

On a happier note our Granddaughter has made it to Australia.

She has on a 5 month adventure before she begins her new career.  We are so happy for her as she follows her dreams.

Thanks for stopping by today.

I do hope you can play along with us..pull out those stamps and create something for the kiddies.

hugs,

*** A little embossing ****

 Hi folks,

Hope all is well with you.   I have been feeling poorly for the past month but finaly am beginning to see the light. Slowly but surely I will be back to my old self.  With the weather warming up I am happy to be able to get outside and enjoy the sunshine.  I even got to bring the patio back to life with new plants and greenery. My favourite annual is blue lobelia which I think is a show stopper when in full bloom.

Today I have a card for the new challenge beginning at

Fab'n'Funky Challenge #638

hosted by our lovely talented Chris who has chosen the theme

"Stencil or Embossing Folder"

I have used an embossing folder and a technique that I'm not sure I've done credit to.  Turning the embossed figure to the back side and running a distressed ink pad in Spun Sugar over it.  This card came together very quickly ..adding a few gems for interest.
