Blues with a touch of green

 WOW where has the past 3 weeks gone. I can't can't believe that we where just at the beach and back already. Abby is at summer day camp and Rick is back to work and I am still trying to get the unpacking done. And Here we are in the last week of summer day camp and I have my first card ready to go.

A Happy Birthday Card

This was the last card I was able to make on Vacation. I didn't get a lot done but Hey the beach was to die for. I had so much fun and got a tan to boot. Here is a a pic for Me and Abby in the car today we got back last night late and Went to have lunch with my Mom and Dad.

Ok Now for my card I used hero arts stamps and Tim Holtz distress ink  to color in  the stamp. I used my slice to cut the butterflies and tag and add a little rickrack to go with it.

Back home and glad to be...

First a Hugh Thank you shout out to my MOM for staying at our place taking care of Frankie Rue our dog and our 2 cats Ammo and Diamond.  I am so glad to be back home but what a great vacation we had in the Outer Bank NC I will have more pic to share with our vacation a little later but for now here is a card for the Summer card camp. My Husband found a scrapbook store in the Outer Banks and I bought 2 light house stamps this stamp is of Ocracoke Light House. It was a beautiful site to see, I never really appreciated them until now.

I made a garden gate card for for this lovely stamp from Impression Obsession I used copics and colored pencils.(yes I know I used green which is not in the color combo but it needed it) I made it for a Thank You card for Dale for making the most wonderful cookies for us on vacation. Thank you Dale.

Second Post of the day.

The color combo of the week was a little hard for me to get my head around at first then I went through all my papers and go figure these colors where popping up alot. So this was a lot easy than I thought. How ever once I sat down it got a little harder I am used to using more colors so this was a good challenge for me.

I used odd & Ends from Cosmo Cricket paper and for the stamps and back ground I used Hero Arts stamps ricrac and a button.

Hello all Sorry for taking so long to post

IF you are watching the All stars game I hope you are enjoying it. I am finally getting around to posting. Here we are in week three and I have usually posted a lot by now but Living on the beach is what I have been doing. The work is so hard ha ha.... I have really been enjoying NC the Outer Banks. What a beautiful place....

So here is the Color Combo for the week

Here is the first card I have share with you I used Jenni Bowlin paper and October afternoon. the little note was from Crafty secrets stamp.I also used the I-rock tool to add  then just a little lace pearls

Here is the sweetest picture of Abby and her uncle Steve's dog a golden-doodle named Harrison. Sitting on the kitchen floor at the beach house in NC she is in heaven getting to have so much time playing with him.

So here is my next card. I really like the sketch from summer card camp and I already had the paper laid out from Sassafras Lass and October afternoon and knew that instantly that it would be used for this sketch, I just love how this card came together. I really do love the oranges an yellows right now. these colors are so fun.

Thank You Card

WOW it is hard to believe that we are almost at the end of another week for summer card camp. I have been so busy this week I have not been able to make as many cards as I would have liked. However this morning I was able to get two done to share. here is the first one. The paper was from Scenic Route. I added a paper doilie and but another one and pop dotted on top. The lay out was from Splitcoaststampers.

Week 2 of Summer Card Camp & Happy 4th

WOW what can I say but Happy 4th of July!

It has been a little wet today and I can't believe that I am about to say this but we needed it. After all the rain we had this spring it was been a little dry so a little rain is ok.

And Happy week 2 of summer card camp. This is a great color combo. I am loving it.

Here is my first card for the week, I have been a little slow getting my card done today I have a lot to get done this week.

This are in Abby's garden her black eyed Susan's are perfect for the color combo. I might just be making a card using these. the yellows orange and greens are just perfect.

Happy 4th of July

Well I hope everyone is have a Very Safe and Happy 4th of July weekend.

I can't believe that the 1st week of Summer Card is over this. What a fast week it has been. Everyone that has made such beautiful cards and I have one more to share with you. I wanted to make so many more than what I did and I have a long week ahead of me. I am so excited to see the new color combo for next week. I am itching to play. So I am hoping to get Abby off to bed early all next week so that I get to play.

I really wanted to make a very simply card this time.
