Crafting Buddy!

Hello All! Today I would like to share a card that my Crafting Buddy Natalia has made. She was over at my house on Sunday and wanted to make a card. First I gave her to pick one of my pre-stamped images that I keep handy. She chose  Melinda Blowing Kisses by Wiff of Joy. She then chose to color with color pencils instead of my Copics; fine with me! Once her coloring was complete she looked through my cards and then asked me for those embellishments. I think she did a really good job...oh by the way Natalia is 7 or 8 years old!(forgot to ask her) So here is her card; I will be entering it in the Simon Says Summer Holiday Children's Challenge. I am so proud of Natalia; she did so well; she even did the border on her own! Oh I did help with the bow, and with some cutting but everything was her choice! Just look at the highlight she has done on the pants...awesome HUH! Well I hope she comes back and we can do more crafting. FYI Natalia is my husbands cousins daughter...what a mouth full; we will call her my niece:0)

 Natalia's baby sister also wanted in on the fun so I had her color a stamped image that I had done for my kids on regular cardstock. She is such a cutie; she wanted to do everything like her big Sister!

I will be back later on with a card that I have done using my Prismas!

Top Tip Tuesday Card

Tuesday means only one thing to me; NEW Challenge at TTT!

This week Challenge is 'Straight Edges'; easy!  There is also an awesome tutorial done by Katrina on an Easel Box Card.

Today I have used Birdie's Nest from Robyn's Fetish for my card. This image was really fun to color with my Copics; super easy and fast to color. I have kept my card very simple; adding stitching on each panel to add a little extra. I have added a charm to my card; with some jumprings. I was having such a hard time with my ribbon bows, I had seen a video tutorial about making them on Bev's blog after reviewing the video feel that it is much better. Thanks Bev! The postage sentiment is a freebie from Netty; check out her blog she has a bunch of awesome freebies! Thanks Girl!

Geeze where does time go? Already August; before we know it; it will be mid-month and in a blink of an eye Christmas! I will warn you this post is picture heavy; so I will let them do most of the talking:0) You can check out a tutorial HERE on how to make this type of window in your card. My sentiment is from Marion you can find it as a freebie Here (also available in English).

 Here is a different view of the flower bunch; WHY do I fool myself into thinking that I can just add one flower??? I start with one; then add a few more; and before I know it the flowers have taken over the card!

 Here is a closeup of Under the Mistletoe Fairies you can find it HERE! They have been colored with Copics on my very fave Stampers Select cardstock from PTI.

Kids Cards

Hello; today I would like to share my kids Franco and Gavino's creations. They both have made a Christmas card. Okay so I have helped Gavino(3)  since he gave up on the coloring...but I think I should have let Franco(4) help him instead....LOL!

So here is Gavino's card:

 And here is Franco's card: He explained that his face is brown because he was running and got it full of mud :) Oh and the blobs are actually glitter glue.

They each chose how they wanted their snow man and what accessories to add. At the end I think they just copied off of each other; but don't we all....

I will be entering his card into the Simon Says Stamp Challenge: SUMMER HOLIDAYS CHILDREN'S CHALLENGE; ANYTHING GOES

This was a fun thing to do; first time for us; Thanks SSS for the idea:0)
