Hi!

I am a Christ follower blessed with a faith-filled husband, 2 incredible sons and so much more. God is so faithful! Being the only girl, I am always surrounded by hockey, baseball, football, muscle cars, loud noises, and all the wonderful things that make men who they are. But, I was born a girly-girl and like everything pink, frilly, and with jewelry and makeup added! Often I’ve felt as if my disjointed, but blessed lifestyle is overrun by testosterone! But, I have found that God is perfect and He knew the balance I needed ~ the perfect men in my pink-colored world: pigs in champagne!

Digi Discovery

Well, Maria has done it again. She introduced me to something I didn't think I'd ever be interested in (like when she showed me the Copics) and now I haven't slept in two days because I've been aimlessly wandering the web looking at digital images. Yikes. The possibilities are endless. And, to know you can buy cheap and download on the spot is well, in a word, invigorating! We spent Saturday together and played with her Spectrum Noir markers and some images. Here are a few cards:

This adorable digi girl is a Pinner!!! I made the card for Maria to thank her for her prayers. The sentiment is from an a la modes (MFT) stamp called, "Girl Talk" and is the set with the iphone. This was also my first attempt at coloring hair with shading. I really have to watch myself because I gravitate to red and teal. Or red and light blue. Or red and ... well, you get the idea. Red is my color!


Jackie's Easter card. I saw this hat on one of my cartridges and immediately thought of her on Easter morning. I also want to thank her for her prayers.


Sandy's birthday card. I knew I had to have that digi stamp when I saw the lips! LOL The banner and grass are from PTI and they cut beautifully. The little banner is also from PTI but the sentiment is from MFT's set of the Volkswagen Bug.


Mom's birthday card. The jar is a PTI stamp and I just filled it with buttons since she loves to sew and just LOVES buttons!


Mayito's birthday card. The image is from a set I got right before Michelle closed Cherry Blossom. The sentiment is from a Pink Stamper set. It's perfect! LOL


Another digi winner! This adorable little cookie fairy has stickled wings and is my first attempt at the dotted "shading" outside the image. It looks so much better in person and is really pretty. I made the card a 6x6 and layered a few Nesties with her. Oh, the inside of the sentiment (part of the digi set) says, "you can never have too many". Don't know who this will go to yet. Probably Erica.

Well, that's all for the Saturday with Maria. Tomorrow I will post a few more I am working on today.
