Carley and I have something in common, we love to sew. Here she is getting ready for her next sewing project! This image is My Besties Doll 18.

I cut a Memorydex card from the Authentique Stitches Collection and adhered a few stickers from that collection to the MD.

I colored this lovely image with Copic Markers and glued her to the MD card along with her sewing machine and a red button.

Here's the prefect card for someone who loves to bake. I used the My Besties Carley Doll 15 digi stamp and enjoyed planning the other elements around this cute image. I used a Recollection Clear Stamp and Die set and cut printed paper for a background. The format of this basic blank card is square. It all came together so nicely with Carley colored in Copic Markers and cut out.

I enjoy working on this adorable Digi Doodle Stamp and card. Travis is blowing his horn to wish happy July 4th as he marches down the lane. He is colored with Copic markers and the Art Impressions background is painted with my new watercolor set. I used some markers with stamps for the floral art vines. I added some detail with a Micron pen. I cut the letters on my Cricut and also using a die on my Cuddlebug Machine. travis is just perfect tooting his horn on the 4th of July.

I love the new images for this month's release. Carley is so cute! I decided to do several cards with her. This card uses the original Carley Duff images.

I colored this lovely image with Copic Markers and cut her out. I placed dimensionals on her back. I used a Sizzix die set (660024) to cut Happy Birthday and adhered onto a triple matt on a basic blank card. I popped lovely Carley on top.

This is the second card this month, made with my 2 1/2 year old granddaughter in mind. She will love getting it from her playhouse mailbox!

I chose to use the My Besties Magical Mermaid Doll 2 image. With that scepter in her hand she seems to be the mermaid queen! I colored the image with Copic Markers and cut her out. I cut a small grey castle on my Cricut Machine. I also cut 2 circles to form a ship's porthole using my We R Memory Keepers Cicrle Spin & Trim.

I designed a background on one circle using My Gel Press Printing Plate, some texture tools and three colors of acrylic paint. I adhered each circle, the castle and mermaid to a basic card and added dots of Ice Glace Stickles Glitter Glue.

My granddaughter will love this card.
