Oh Boy, Oh Boy!

Good Saturday morning, peeps!

I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend so far. For today, I've got this card for two challenges:

1. Copic Creations - Landscape Design.

2. Deconstructing Jen - Sketch 13.

I think i overdid it on the clouds a l'il bit... got a little heavy-handed with the ink. But overall, I really like how the card came out. From his sun-tanned face... to those plant stickers that remind me of ponds!

I used Tobie and Buddie from Some Odd Girl. Oh, isn't Tiny Tobie the cutest??!!! He reminds me a little bit of my tater tot and how, in the near future, he'll probably be bringing me lots of critters and dead birds! YIKES!

Which reminds me of a funny story... *warning!* Grossness factor alert!!! (don't say I didn't warn you!).

Mattie looooves to pick things off the floor. Lint, a piece of food, a scrap of paper. He gives them to us to throw away, and we proudly dubbed him our 'clean' boy because he was helping keep the house neat!

Well, one day, I was in the office/ craft room with him. I was on the computer when he brought me this little brown lump. I didn't recognize it at first but then I got a whiff. EEEEEWWWWWWWW!! It was his poop!!!! I glanced at the floor and saw that there was a trail -- I guess his diaper had gotten loose and these little things had fallen out!!!! Of course, i screamed! I probably even cursed!! Then, proceeded to scoop those *gag* balls and washed our hands! Clean boy, my butt!!!! Buwahahahaha!!

I hope this did not cause you to vomit :). Heeeeheeeheee. Oh, the joys of being mama to boys!

Copic Creations' Brown Challenge

Yup, I finally did it!

Made a Christmas card with traditional colors! Except the sentiment isn't! :)

I'm entering it for Challenge 38 over at Copic Creations. Make a scene or use earth - browns (E Copics).

It was fun coloring these wooden deers, an image I obtained from the Copic Certification class back in September.

Hope you all have a fabulous Friday!

Happy Friday! My card for today is for the Monochromatic challenge at Copic Creations.

Played with my W's and T's, and I love the Black & White effect!

This card is for someone who inspires me, especially with her art. She became pregnant after four years of trying and I wanted to send her a note.





The stamp is from Magnolia. I'm gushing at this mommy-baby duo, and I am loving the fact that she still has her preggie weight.

My other favorite part are the butterflies. Notice how they're stitched in the middle and a bit of string is left to symbolize their 'horns'. I love P.S. It's in the Details at Etsy -- the name says it all!

I'm sure these are easy to make if you know how to use a sewing machine (I learned home ec in the 7th grade but have since forgotten). But she punched these cuties out of old books, & I'm ecstatic when people upcycle!

Have a great weekend!
