A Cute Snowman


Have you ever finished a project and then realized that you forgot a key point or requirement?  Well this week's Squigglefly challenge is You're a Dear - use a dear sentiment or a deer.  I finished my card, uploaded it and then looked at everyone else's cards.  They all had deers and dear sentiments and mine had neither.  Had to go back and add a little IO deer to the bg - looks like of funny back there, but I am going to give this one to my Hubby and this weekend was the start of when you can hunt deer in AL with regular guns so it is appropriate for him as he is in deer hunting mode now - he probably even dreams about them!  My image is by Cheryl Grant Alger and is called Star Bright Star Light - the sentiment is by Charlene Mitchell

Come join in the challenge fun!

  1. Yes, I have done the exact same thing. I love this card. The pink background is a very nice change of pace for a snowman and the deer is looking to be hiding behind the snowman so none of those hunters can find him. All and all it turned out to be a fantastic card. Wishing you a great week ahead.

  3. I think the deer is precious poking his head out to get a glimpse of that fantastic snowman - and hiding from all the hunters at the same time!! LOVE your card and those colors are so fun and pretty.

  9. Wonderful card, and I think it was a happy accident you forgot the dear and had to stick him back there since this card is for your husband. The white dear on your card blends in as well as the real ones do in the woods!

  15. Oh my goodness-isn't that just so darn cute. I am in love with this. And it's pink. I am having a pink Christmas this year. I haven't been all that much into it. I didn't even put all my things out. But I made myself put up a tree and 1 garland. I always have a tree in my foyer that I decorate for each season - so two trees instead of 4 or 5 . So they are all pink. Something new with not a lot of memories attached.

Forest Goodies and Other Projects

 Hello Crafty Friends. I just got the Stamperia Forest Paper and Die Cuts in the mail so I had to play with them right away.   I have a combo creation - journal page and card.  On the journal page I used my 6x6 Dina Wakley Journal and laid a base of gesso.  I then used Dina's pastel crayons and some SU! inks and stamps.  Also added in some TH Dress Ink in Vintage Photo since I don't know how to make anything without it  (seriously).   The eagle is a Stamperia Forest die cut and is coated with gesso.  Did a bit of stenciling and distressing to finish the page off.  I am linking this the the **Art*Journal*Journey* September Texture Theme (last day - can't wait to see what October's Theme will be).  The die cut and the little smears add texture to the already very textured page.   I love the blue and green together and was inspired to made a quick card for my Son-in-law who cut down some tree limbs for us the other day.  The paper in the middle is from the Stamperia Forest

A Martini, Peanut Butter Cupakes, and Art

Hello Friends. Today, I have an ecletic mix of drinks, dessert, and art. First, it's T-day somewhere in the world so time for a drink post which I am linking to Elizabeth's Blog - Altered Book Lover.  Last week we had a work related dinner.  When the waitress asked what I wanted to drink, I had a sudden craving for a martini.  I use to love them, but I guess my tastes have changed because I wasn't a fan.  I was a fan of the chips and dips though! And the day before, I brought my Sister's fabulous peanut butter cupcakes.  Mainly because I was craving them and couldn't ask her to make just one..... Over at **Art*Journal*Journey* Elle picked a theme of Books, Cats, and Tea (you can pick one, two or three of the items).  I did a Bible Journal Page in my Journaling Bible - Luke 13:24-25.  After a layer of Gesso, I took a Sharpie pen and drew the kitty, then the narrow door, and then colored the door with Arteza Brush pens. The verse was written with a Micron pen.  This

Milkshake Malt Porter and a Bit of Art

 Hello friends and Happy T-day. It has been hit or miss with me lately on T-day posts. The remodel of our house next door has taken our mental and physical energy.  I think a few more weeks and things will be on the contractor instead of us.  Hopefully I will be back to normal by then. My Oldest Darling Daughter asked if we wanted to come for dinner Saturday.  Translation:  go to the store with me and we will bring part of dinner to your house and you cook the rest.  While at the store, I saw one 6 pack of this fun milkshake porter so, of course, I bought it.  It smells wonderful (a hint of chocolate and a hit of malt) and has a light creamy taste.  I would definitely buy it again if I see it.  My son-in-law did not like it, but he is more a  Miller Lite fan.  Now if this had been a whiskey, he would have been all over it.  LOL.  Linking this to Elizabeth's blog for the T-party gang. Darling Daughter had tried her hand at dried pintos, and she rocked them (I will begging for a rep
