Little Miss "Ladybug" Muffit!

Everyone knows how much I love ladybugs!  Wow, I get ladybug cards, stamps, stickers, etc. in the mail from my friends - I LOVE IT!!!!!!!  I am so addicted.  Well, I have to make a card every once in a while that shows off a ladybug image that I have.  I have created this card to send off as a swap but just love the image.  It is all about the ladybug on this card!

Happy Mother's Day!

Music Zentangle

I have really enjoyed Zentangling these days - is that a word?  Well, it is very relaxing and fun to do.  It is supposed to be Yoga for the brain.  I really think it is!  Well, I had to make a music theme Zentangle.  I decided to make a record album, that was in the process of spinning!  The items in the record were representing the songs on the album.  OK, I am reaching, but it was really fun to do.

Happy Friday!

Birthday Gift Card

I started a new job recently.  I am working for the same company, but am in a different department.  Can I say Night and Day?  Well, we actually celebrate things in my new department, so we were celebrating Admin Professionals Day.  I made cards that we put gift cards into to give to the three employees that are work in our department and are under the Administrator level.  I made three different ones, but am just showing a couple of them and the inside of one of them.  They were all the same, but they were different colors.

Love this new fold right now.  I am having fun with it.  

Happy Thursday!  

Hugs, Meg

Reading

I have made a card, to send as part of a swap with one of my card groups.  This stamp is of a girl who is reading.  I just love this stamp, since I feel like it is me, or even my daughter.  We both love to read!

What do you think?

Happy Monday!

Happy Birthday to You!

Today I am posting a Happy Birthday card using the Magnolia stamp Congratulations Tilda.  This is a quick card that I made for Stamping Scrapping Techniques and Tutorials Website.  This is an amazing site to belong to.  Check it out!

The inside of the card looks like this:

Happy Wednesday!

Sunflowers

What a wonderful Friday this is.  I am about to leave to go see my daughter, Brittany, at ECU.  We are going to the Purple/Gold Pigskin Pigout Party this weekend.  It should be a really good time.  However, before that, I wanted to post this Sunflower card.  I picked this image because I thought it would be perfect with this card design.  The sunflower is a digi stamp found at PriscillaStyle Store.  I love this digi set - especially the sentiments.  I am posting this card on the CDAC Anything Goes Challenge.  

The papers that I used on this card are old DSPs from Stampin Up.  I thought the colors would be perfect.  I hope you enjoy this card!

This is a picture of the card from the front and closed. 

The following images are of the card being opened.

Here is the inside of the card.

Happy Friday!

Nighttime at the Beach

If you have followed my post for a while, you will know that I love to go to Wine and Design places to paint, drink, and snack with my friends.  We have the best time doing this.  Well, I did it again a few weeks ago and am just getting around to posting this here.  We tried a new place this time and the instruction wasn't as good as the other place that we go to, but we muddled through and created a night beach scene.  The chair was the hardest part of the painting, but I think the whole thing turned out pretty good.  As always, I started with a blank canvas!

Then we started working on the sky:

Then we worked on the ocean and the moon.

We started working on the waves.

As you can see, adding colors here and there it starts to look like a painting.

But, it always looks better when it is totally finished.  I like this painting.

Happy Wednesday!

Hugs, Meg
