It's Friday, my Just For Me card, and here is the second Teddy Bea card, just like I promised :)
This was the image I chose for my win from last week's Teddy Bo Tuesday challenge and I just love how cute she is!
Our weather is turning Fall-like here in Texas but we don't get the change of color as much as I would like but I do enjoy the cooler days and beautiful blue skies that come this time of year.
I added chalk ink to all the edges and also to the flowers and leaves for a slightly aged look.
For another rustic touch I took the Burlap Ribbon and hand pleated it and then topped it with the brown stitched ribbon to form a border across the bottom of the card.
I hope you enjoyed this and be sure to be back for the New Releases from Designed 2 Delight tomorrow and cards for Pile It On and Christmas Card Challenges on Sunday!
Have a great weekend :)

It's Thursday and so that means another card from the New Releases at Digital Delights!
As you may remember we are stepping into the next Holiday on the list with a super selection of new Christmas images for all those cards you know you have to make!
Today I am featuring the adorable Tea Cup Slippy!
How cute is little slippy in his teacup? He was perfect to add my favorite Puffy Paint to and his snowflake just cried out for a touch of glitter :)
I hope I am getting you in the mood for making Christmas cards, you know you have to start soon if you haven't already!

If you follow me on Facebook you'll know I had a "blip" yesterday and had a "all cleaning, no crafting" day. Well I made up for it today and sneaked in a little coloring and I feel so much better for it! LOL

I love this cute Teddy Bo image and it was just the right orientation for the image panel on the sketch. I used an embossing folder on the metallic cardstock behind, one of my favorite techniques of adding a little extra sparkle to a Christmas card.
Now it's over to you to use our sketch and come back and share with us at Christmas Card Challenges

It's time for another Gem of A Challenge featuring the fabulous designs from Janet at Pink Gem Designs
This week we have a super fun challenge for you, we want to see those cards with Flowers!
I absolutely adore this gorgeous Chloe image, so cute to color and I got to practice my coloring of pleats, I'm not there yet but I'm getting better.
I hope you like her and I hope I've made you want to get your flowers out and create!
I'd love to see your creation at Gem of A Challenge
EDITED TO ADD: Made 1st Place at Crafts 4 Eternity THANKS SO MUCH!!!
Happy Friday!!
Do you have lots of things planned for your weekend?
It's Neighborhood Garage Sale day here tomorrow so tonight we will be pulling out stuff from the attic, closets, anywhere where we've stashed stuff we need to get rid of. Hopefully we can sell some of it to off set the unexpected bill we had this week when we needed a new garage door opener. It's nice to be able to afford to replace it but not nice to have to pay for it at all! LOL
We are also going to try and do the annual Pumpkin Patch visit if the weather cooperates (should do but you know how it changes on a whim)
But our weekend fun starts very soon as it is "Fun Run" at the elementary school this morning, the only fundraiser this year, and so we are rushing off to go and watch Carter run his laps and raise a little money!
It will be fun to see them all racing around the track in their matching t-shirts seeing who can do the most, hopefully no tears will be shed!LOL
Like last Friday I have a card today made with an image I won this week. I have made kind of a pledge to myself to use the images I win rather than stashing them away, we'll see how long that lasts!
This one came from a Top 3 spot at
Milk Coffee and I got to choose my image and this one was so cute and a perfect fit for many of the challenges around right now.
She certainly is a lot cuter than the last Halloween card I made and I'm very sure she is a good witch, not a naughty one.
I hope you have a wonderful weekend, be sure to drop by tomorrow for a new Pink Gem card and a new Christmas Card Challenges on Sunday
