Hi friends!
Today is National Foam Roller Day!
I know, right?
You were looking forward to this day alllll week, I'm sure!
:)
This is the new challenge at the CCEE Stampers this week:
Use any rolled technique!
There are many possibilities,
like paper rolling, brayers, marbles - have fun with this!
Here is my card, using acrylic paint and a brayer.
I added it to the top and pulled the paint downward.
NOT thrilled with how this turned out
but I just didn't have a chance to create ~
much less REcreate!
Some times you win, sometimes you just say cheers!
Please use the keyword CCEEE2218 if you post to an online gallery

stop by the CCEE Stampers blog to see all the DT cards this week!

Hi friends!
I'm delighted to be your hostess for the month of May
at the CCEE Stampers challenge blog.
I'll be sharing my choice of challenges all month long!
Yesterday was National Dandelion Day so show us your best
dandelion cards (or use an flower as an alternative!)
Hello friends!
I'm still here!
It's time for my very favorite challenge ~ One Plus Twelve!
This card series is where I take one stamp
(and JUST one stamp)
and create a card twelve times - one for each month.
Meet Miss May!
(in other words, the May 2022 card!)
I've chosen the butterfly stamp from PInk Fresh Studio:
Hi friends!
Today is National Kindergarten Day!
using primary colors and basic shapes!
Easy Peasy!
Except I snuck in some green.
:)
I know the primary colors, I do ... I do!
I'm just exercising a smidge of artistic freedom
to compliment the 4 shapes in 4 different basic colors.
and see what they've made this week!
Thank you, Liz, our April hostess, for another great challenge!
Thanks for stopping by!

Hello loves!
It's time for a new duel at the Dueling Darlings 2
with a theme of: Holographic Sparkle!
Our hostesses for the month of April are Terry and Darlene ~
and it's oh. so. sparkly!
First, WELCOME BACK, Terry!
She was on of our original teamies when we started 11 years ago :)
She also sent me this beautiful card kit
filled with glitz and glam papers and gems that shine!
I decided to use the 2 glitter cardstocks in purple and blue
and focus on those ~ as well as color the image she sent along.
These birthday candles are so fun ~
and I used my copics to color them in the matching colors at the paper.
There was so much in her kit,
I have enough for a 2nd and 3rd card!
Thanks, Terry!
Here are the other ladies in the DD2 with cards from the duel:

Hi friends!
I'm back with ano
ther beautiful rainbow card ~
always a cheerful sight!
Liz is the hostess for the month of April
and has a lovely theme this week: Look Up at The Sky Day!
She says:
It’s "look up at the sky day.”
So recreate something you love as a beautiful part of God’s huge canvas
(maybe a starry night, a bright rainbow, sunrises or sunsets,
or beautiful cloud formations.
Here is my card!
I've used Tim Holtz distress oxides for the background
and die cut it twice for dimension.
Then I added an embellishment piece I made one Wednesday
to cheer up my loved ones, friends and besties!
I think this one is just so cute :)
I actually created them using paint swatch samples!
It's using these embellishments I made for my channel:
That's it for this video, my friends!
Be sure to check out the rest of the CCEE Stampers!

Hi friends!
Today's card (image) is playing double duty today
since that's crazy thing called LIFE keeps pulling me from crafting :)
It's the 3 Musketeers mystery image
and the Hot Mess = Success #33 card wrapped up together!
Like a burrito.
Just without all the fixins!
BUT I have to say ........
FUN was the word of today!
You can see the video version of this card here
on my YouTube channel!
My card starts off with the stamp from the 3M card group
sent to me from Jeanette for the March image ~
thank you!
I decided to do some messy play
and create a card (which you will see at another date.)
For today, I literally dumped out watered down acrylic paint pots
and made a collage of painted swirl.
Once it dried, I created a Reverse Spotlight Technique card
using a 2nd stamped image,
added some dots and a sentiment and voila!
LOVE this sweet card.
I don't say that often!
But I do love this one :)
And that's it!
Be sure to see what mess these lovelies created, too:
Kelly - you are here!

Hello hello!
I'm still playing catch up with my cards so this post will be short :)
Back on March 15th, the DD2 posted cards with the new theme:
Coffee or Tea!
The hostesses were Barb and our newest gal, Lorraine
and they had a dueling theme of coffee (us!) or tea (them!)
I love both both but if I don't have tea, I'm okay!
if I don't have my coffee ..........
RUN.
Kidding!
This month, I used nearly every. single. scrap!
I made a memory dex card since us 'tubers (that's YouTube!)
seem to use them A LOT.
It was fun!
I did 'coffee dye' the paper and then die cut it out and popped it up.
I used the Tim Holtz rosette die to create those
and an assortment of dies to make all the other shapes!
I also had enough little scraps left to create a matching tag:

Hi everyone!
Happy weekend! Ours is jammed full
but I was able to steal away a few minutes to create a card!
This month, I'm the hostess of the 3M card group
{Barb, Jeanette and myself}
and I chose a VERY old wooden stamp set from Great Impressions.
Since it's Eastertime, I was feeling this stamp!
I was thinking the other day when I was at my mom's house
how much I loved her wedgewood china when I was little.
She keeps trying to give me pieces of it now
"take a plate! have a bowl! want some tea cups?!"
and I keep refusing :)
I stamped out this image in Paris Dusk from Memento
and this just might be the first time I've ever used navy blue ink!
I used some Echo Park paper for the background and the 'grass'
which is a super fun plaid.
And that's my card!
You can see Barb's card here
and Jeanette's card here as they are the other 2/3's of the 3M!
I'm the one in green :)
Thanks for stopping by!

Hi friends!
Today's card is for my One Plus Twelve card series ~
my FAVORITE!
This year, in 2022, I chose Pink Fresh Studio's Butterfly.
This month, I've used a leftover background piece
from a recent acrylic paint pour that I did.
My granddaughter and I made a pot for her other abuela!
The paint that lands in the box from the paint pour is amazing!
I used several sheets of watercolor paper to 'sop it up'
and after it dried, used it for amazing stamped images.
You can see the video here!
Hi friends!
I'm still here!
It's been 1000% overdrive on maximum velocity in our family
and I can't seem to catch a break.
Not to craft and make cards like I'd like ~
and I'm just barely able to keep up with my YouTube channel
commitments and collaborations but it's FUN FUN FUN!
AND
I'm absolutely loving the entries to my birthday challenge giveaway
and seeing everyone's talent!
My goodness, everyone is a crafty superstar!
I have a card share today that was to be posted March 3rd ...
but at least it's still March!
This is for my One Plus Twelve card series that is my FAVORITE!
Shhhhhh.
Don't tell my other cards that :)
This year, in 2022, I chose Pink Fresh Studio's Butterfly.
This month, I am using a scrap of quilt like designer paper
that was just barely enough to complete a card.
I feel VERY accomplished that I was able to use an entire 12 x 12
sheet of paper to make quite a few crafty items, like this card:
those are from my daughter's high school graduation!
She is now 25 and moved into her own condo ~
and they are still going strong <3
If you'd like to see the video of this card,

Thanks for stopping by today!

Hi friends!
It's time for another CCEE Stampers challenge
brought to us by Frances!
Create a card that features either leprechauns or gnomes.
Now let's take a look at the cards our Design Team created this week.
While I don't have a card today, I do have a mini pocket letter!
And it has a gnome underneath the shamrock confetti :)
This was my first pocket letter and it was a fun one to make!
Here is the video version on my YouTube channel ⬇
And the flip side:
The gold coins are coming out of the pot 'o gold
and of course, there had to be a rainbow!
This folds up to the size of an ATC card
and I've added it to a green net bag.
Thanks for stopping by!
