Kiss Me!

Happy St. Patrick's Day! I'm not Irish, but kiss me anyway!

I thought I'd try my luck at another digital card. This cute duck is from Dustin Pike's Doodle Dragon Studios February Membership. Originally, Mr. Duck was naked. So I colored him, added a shirt, then snatched a shamrock from a different digi image for his stylish shirt. Say what? It's St. Patrick's Day, he couldn't have a plain green shirt! I cropped the shamrock from January Membership #12 leprechaun's hand. Pretty cool, huh? The sketch is from The Sweet Shop. The sketch needed a little something, so I added the three circles with the stolen shamrocks. Not too shabby. :)

Everything Ducky?

Everything Ducky? How can I help? Have you ever had one of those days/weeks where life is sinking around you? Well, my friend is having one of those weeks, so I thought I'd send them this "pick me up" card. How can you not smile with this cute duck from Dustin Pike's - Doodle Dragon Studios February Membership set!

Smile! Be happy! The sun IS going to come out.

I'm also entering this card in the Sweet Stop Sketch Challenge, Operation Write Home Challenge #7 - Clean & Simple, and the CAS-ual Fridays Challenge.

Day 13 of 14 Days of Valentines - Quackers

Oh QUACK! Tomorrow is Valentine's Day. Are you SURE your ready? This project is dedicated for those "Oh Quack! I forgot. I need a valentine for X, Y & Z!" moments. It's super easy and fast.

Print out your image and sentiment. Use your Cuttlebug and Spellbinders to cut your tag. Now roll it through again, but this time embossing it. I'm sure there is a Cricut cartridge with a pillow box on it. I cheated and used a pre-made box (even easier). Run your pillow box through the Cuttlebug in your embossing folder. Grab a ribbon and tie it. Stick on your tag and you're done. See? Super easy and fast. Wait! Remember, you need to put something inside your pillow box. Gift card time. I love gift cards!

Happy Day 13!

Inspiration Challenge - Children's Games

Dustin has been releasing so many cute images that I couldn't resist entering into another challenge! This week over at The Cuttlebug Spot is a different Inspiration Challenge. But this time the inspiration is from children's games. Obviously, I chose UNO. I remember playing UNO for hours and hours at my grandparent's cabin from a young age. It's one of those timeless (and ageless) games. I still love to play it.

Originally, this cute duck was holding a heart, but he can hold UNO cards too. Watch out...he is a quacky game player.
