ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 160 "FOUR LEGGED FRIENDS"

 

Sunday, Sunday, Sunday. I can not believe it's Sunday again. I have been so busy with my son's and daughter that time just flies by. My middle son finally has a job. He's almost 21 and he's going to college two days a week. I told him when he started college that he didn't have to work because I thought he would be busy all the time. With him going two days a week, I decided that he needed to go get a job. My daughter is still busy with her soccer. She was also inducted to the National Honor Society Monday night. I cried, of course, when she was called up to accept. I'm a very proud MOM. My oldest son may be getting a better job. I'm praying for him. I want him to actually like the job he is doing. All three of them made me real happy on Mother's Day. They bought me the most lovely gifts. Great job kiddos. I Love You all to the moon and back!!

 

 

 

Oak Pond Creations is a wonderful place to go to. They are an etsy store and you will love the things that you find there. The image that Oak Pond Creations let me use is called "King Of Courage." I hope you can guess what four legged friend this is. I will let you see my card to see if you guessed correctly. With this image I made a birthday card for a child turning one. I made it whether your giving it to a boy or girl. Let's show you what the prize is for this week's challenge.

Did you guess that it was a lion. I hope so. Isn't he so adorable. I think the background paper worked perfect for this card. So if you like this card, I'm going to give you the items that I used making this.

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 159 "PIRATES AND THE SEA"

 

 HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO EVERYONE!!

 

Welcome to this special Sunday challenge. It ends up starting up on Mother's Day. I'm actually going to go to my bothers house and have a cookout for my Mom. I haven't been with her on Mother's Day for over 15 years. We didn't get along so we quit talking to each other. We are starting slow to get to know each other again and have that Mother/Daughter relationship we should have always had. I'm so close of my daughter and wouldn't know what I would do if we weren't. She actually had her first formal Friday night and she was beautiful. We both were nervous. It was nice to have went through this whole process with her. Beginning with the dress all the way to getting ready for the dance.  I can't wait to journal and make layouts for the pictures.



We have a great sponsor this week for our challenge. Welcome KPM Doodles to our challenge's. You will love what they have in their store. I was lucky to use the image set named Pirates. This image goes great with our challenge theme. I have never done a card or even a layout with pirates so this was a bit of a challenge for me. But, I always love a challenge. Here is the prize that KPM Doodles is offering to the winner this week.

2 SETS
Of Images To
 The Winner's Choice

Here is the card that I ended up creating with the Pirate Set

 

I hope you understand the card. I put the pirate on there with the map and the "X." The white brads are suppose to be the path that the pirate needs to follow to get the treasure. I hope you see the way the path is going. The paper behind has a  path on it also. Here are the items that I used to make this cute Pirate card.

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 158 "SPRING COLORS"

 

It's another Sunday for a new challenge with Robyn's Fetish. I hope everyone had a great week. Mine was busy and more busy. My daughter had three soccer games in a row this week plus a band and chorus concert. She keeps us on our toes. She did make a goal at one of the games. Wish I had a camera. The face she made was priceless. I need a little one for my purse for moments like this. I also spent half a day with my grand kids. They grow like weeds. They were so good this visit that I had a nice conversation with my son. Nice to have that time with your kids after they leave the house. It's hard to get time when they have kids to get that time in. Thank You to my grandchildren.

 

 

Well as you probably guessed, Robyn is our wonderful sponsor for this first full week of May. The challenge this week is "Spring Colors." Doing one of these cards just makes me want summer to come even faster. The image that I chose this week is called Lucy. A cute little baby girl that just wears a lot of spring colors. I made a baby card for either a Congratulations or It's a Girl Card. I wanted to keep it open until I would need it. Here is what Robyn is giving to the lucky winner this week.

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 157 "STRIPES OR DOTS"

 

Hope you are having a great morning. The sun is shining so it will be a great day for me. Just seeing the sun and opening your windows reminds me that summer is coming. Time to spend time with my daughter since she is in school all the time and then her sports. I will also be able to take the grand children to the park and other fun summer things.

 

 

 

As you can see above, Bugaboo Stamps is the sponsor for this week's challenge. A great challenge using Stripes or Dots. The image that I used is a cute little trio of turtles. The image is called Trio Turtle Birthday. This made a perfect Happy Birthday Card for a child. I really loved coloring them. I did try to make the three turtles look different. I hope you can see that. Before I show you my card I would like to tell you about the prize Bugaboo Stamps will be giving to this week's lucky winner.

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 156 "MAKE YOUR OWN FLOWERS"

 

Good Morning to everyone this cold Sunday Morning!! This has been a very devastating week for everyone. The Boston Marathon was a severe tragedy that will never be forgotten. Then the explosion in Texas. My thoughts and prayers go out all the victims and their family.

I do hope that you found some good things to do this week and weekend. I have decided to start a little of my spring cleaning. I can only get so much done at a time because I have problems with my lowers back. I have had many injections but they only last temporarily. I will get it done though. I'm loosing my help. My middle child is hardly ever here. I think he is itching to move but can't right now. My youngest is so focused on her sports and studies that I don't make her do a whole lot. She needs to enjoy her teenage years before she faces that big world out there.

Our sponsor is one that has many beautiful images. They are Milk Coffee Stamps. Here's their badge and you can see some of their digital stamps.



This week our theme is "Make Your Own Flowers." I wanted to make a little different flower and Edwina, one of gifted ladies on our design team, did a tutorial on making your own flowers. So I made mine something similar like hers. Thank You Edwina for the tutorial. The image that I used from Milk Coffee Stamps is called Tiffany in Roses Bridal Gown. I don't know about bridal gowns because I eloped. Doesn't matter if you have a huge wedding or something real little. I did put my color ideas in it. I have seen gowns but wouldn't know the fancy things that goes on them. Here is the prize that they are offering our winner this week

3 Digital Stamps
Of The
Winner's Choice

So here is my card that has made my flower on and Tiffany with her roses.

 

I hope you can see the detail of the picture. If I could get it any larger on here I would. On my handmade flower I used two different colors of ribbon. One is a glitter ribbon with all kinds of colors and then a cream color ribbon. The little dots on the flower are different colored pearls. Here are the whole list of things I used on this card.

Don't forget to enter your card or project over at The Robyn's Fetish Challenge Blog. Well hope the rest of your Sunday is a good one and I will be back with another great challenge for you.

 

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE #155 "EASEL CARDS"

 

Good Morning!! I'm exhausted and just cannot wake up. I was at a 12 hour crop/craft show yesterday. It was held in a very big place and I didn't realize how much stuff people brought to a crop. I was just there as a vendor for Close To My Heart Scrapbooking &Stamping. I was shocked with how many people did not know that this company was even out there. I have been with them for 5 years and thought everyone knew about them. Well, It was exhausting but worth it. I had all last week getting ready for it. Takes alot of work to get ready for one.

 

Did everyone have fun at the Blog Hop? I sure hope so. Looked like everyone did with all the commenting going on. I hope you like all of Robyn's new digital stamps for the kitchen. I really had fun with the image that I was able to use.

 

A Day For Daises is our wonderful sponsor this week. They have cute images and I do like when we get to work with one of them.

 

This week our theme is "Easel Cards." I remember the first one I made and how frustrated I was because I never did one and didn't understand how they were put together to stand. I like them now but I'm going to start learning how to make different styles of easel cards. The image that I used this week is called "Ladybug A Waiting."  It's a cute ladybug that is sitting on a mushroom. I took the image and flipped horizontally to make it look like the ladybugs are looking at each other and came up with a new sentiment. Before I show you let me tell you what the prize is this week.

A Day For Daisies Store

 

Now here is the card that I call " You Can Count On Me"

 

 

I thought they looked cute looking at each other. For some reason, the sentiment would not come out clear but I think you still can read it. Now to the products that I used to make this card.
