It's been a few days for another card, but here's my latest.  Papers are mostly Pixelscrapper and pattern is from SVGcuts.

Paper Makin'

Pixel Scrapper  has a fun daily challenge going on through April for creating a "paper a day".  Today the theme is Polka Dots.  Here's my submission - kinda quirky but I love the colors.

 While I was making the paper I remembered that years ago I uploaded 2 sets of brushes on  Adobe Exchange.  These brushes are line drawings of Missouri birds.  I loved creating them but lost track of them as I changed out computers several times since 2003.  Here's a sample of what a few of them look like.

If you'd like to have these brushes for Photoshop (they were created in PS 7 so I know they are pretty much compatible with all) you can find them on here.  There are 79 birds included in the .abr file.  Enjoy!

I simply love SVGcuts !  This week they have the Maison Madeline collection as their special kit and I just fell head over heels for this rooster card.  On the inside-"It's okay to be a little cocky!  You're still a spring chicken!".  Most of the papers are from Pixel Scrapper.  Enjoy!

It's Been a While...

...but I'm back now.  I've been playing with my my new Sizzix Eclipse since I got it a few weeks ago and have been having a blast.  It's soooooo much better than my old faithful Cricut Expression (which I will probably use until it just dies) and I've learned about a wonderful new place called SVGcuts. Most of the papers that I use have been downloaded from Pixel Scrapper.  If you've not been to either of these sites you have to check them out.  I may never buy a piece of scrapbook paper again!  I've been going wild making all kinds of birthday and holiday cards and such.  Here's a few of my newest creations

Easter Chick Card

Hippity Hoppity

Battenburg  Lace Lever Card

My take on the classic Chocolate Bunny card

Painting Bunny Card

MAYBE THE LAST ONE...NOT!

And just as I think I'm winding down I remember another one that I need to add to the list. I may get them all done by Christmas, but it's gonna be tight. This one's made with Christmas Cheer. On the inside: May your holiday season be filled with warmth and good cheer. Happy Holidays! Yep, this one is little more generic than some, but there are those out there who don't really celebrate Christmas the way I do. Doesn't make me love them any less though. :)

YET ANOTHER...

The card list is getting shorter. I've indeed done a couple of duplicates just because I'm so short on time, but I've changed the colors up a little and promised myself that I won't send one to someone too similar to one that I send to someone who knows that person and might share their cards with them. Did that make any sense at all? Anyway, went to the gun show in Springfield today and got me a new purse. I know, who goes to a gun show to buy a purse??!! Well, they are real leather and the one that I've been carrying (which I got a gun show 4 years ago) is starting to show signs of wear and by golly I just wanted one! The one thing that did impress me is that it seems that the economy isn't really affecting gun sales. There were thousands of people there! Hmmmmm...maybe it is related to the economy after all!

Back to the card. Made with Cricut Wildlife cartridge and Cuttlebug embossing folder. On the inside: We hope your Christmas is just ducky! Merry Christmas!

SOMETHING'S FISHY

Maybe I'm too addicted to fly fishing! Cricut Wildlife cartridge with Cuttlebug embossing folders for fish and background. Inside: Hope all our Christmas Fishes come true! Merry Christmas.
