The link to this challenge for Dynamic Duos is here
My card was made with a rubber stamped image we think is from Stamps happen (borrowed stamp) It was stamped years ago, My husband colored the image with copics, and I added it to a cuttlebug embossed background (D'vine Swirls) My paper pieced umbrella was made using a Dreamweaver stencil. (My favorite stencil from Dreamweaver) This umbrella is clean and simple to make...so I hope that counts... I also hope my card counts for the Dynamic Duos challenge I used the colors Hot pink and black...and I hope my brown hair/sand and ivory colored skin count for neutrals.
My sentiment is from JustRite Stamps (Just the right words)
I know it may seem strange doing a beach card, especially when there is so much snow all around me. but I thought this would make a lovely card to put into my cancer donation box. I make cards all year so I can take a box full down to our cancer center in August in memory of my Mom.

Here is the link to the Dreamweaver challenge...where you can possibly win a free stencil.
Below is a beautiful card that was mailed to me from Lynell from Dreamweaver Stencils. I have purchased this rooster stencil but I have not made anything with it yet. Lynell thanks for the inspiration.
And below is the prize I won at Dreamweaver...this is one of their newer background stencils...I put a piece of white paper behind it so I could get it to photographer better. Thank you so much, Lynell.
TMy Mail certainly brought much JOY to me today.

What an adorable image in pink, I love the gingham umbrella - and your stencil prize is fabulous, lucky you! Enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteLove, love, love your lovely bright card Jill - and you can tell that DH of yours that a padded cell should be welcome, as then he would not have to shovel snow!!
ReplyDeleteThat stencil is gorgeous, as is the rooster card.

Nice job dear. The image sweet and so are you.
ReplyDeleteJill, I love, love, LOVE this!!!! That image is so cute and the paper pieced umbrella is just perfect! So very pretty.
ReplyDeleteTell hubby you do not need a padded cell at all! LOL! I think Blogger makes things the size it wants to at times.....among other strange things!
Great win too! That's a very pretty stencil!

Darling image, and I love the paper pieced umbrella too! Congrats on winning the stencil!
ReplyDeleteYour cards are awesome. Great coloring.
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet card and so beautifully colored!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet card (the first one). The little girl is adorable. How sweet of you Jill to drop your cards off at the cancer center.

He's right, your are sweet.

Hi Leanne, thank you for the nice comments on my blog, and about my husband's blog...He's really starting to get into this blogging thing.
ReplyDeleteI did tell him today, it was nice of him to give me nice comments on my blog...but he getting a bit too mushy!!! LOL
I'm behind again and here you've been so busy creating and sharing! It's been fun to catch up, Jill! (I especially adored the "Joy" card!) I need to pop over to Jim's blog, too, before I get any further behind!
ReplyDeleteYou wrote a lovely "domino" post, Jill, and I'm so thrilled for you that Debbie responded to your email!!
BTW, you are not going crazy, it's that **&^ Blogger - um, wait, it IS driving us all crazy, isn't it!! Never mind! Have a great week! Hugs, Darnell
P.S. How exciting that you are almost at 100 followers!! Yay!! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteThat's a gorgeous beach card with the wonderful coloring and paper piecing. It's fun to look at a beach card and I would love being there.
ReplyDeleteBut, guess what? It's snowing this morning at my house. I think it will only be a dusting as most of the snow is supposed to be more south in our state. I'll take what I can get. I know most are sick of snow. Of course, I'm not as we don't get it that often.
Jill, you really did get wonderful mail with that gorgeous card and wonderful, new stencil to play with.
Clean and simple always seems to take the most time for me..... You did a great job with it! I can't wait to see how you use the new stencil!
ReplyDeleteWow Jill, I got a vision of your husband standing behind you laughing. I have no idea what he looks like but I still had a picture of him in my head (you should post a picture of him so I can see how close I got to him). I have a wonderful hubby - but I wish he colored images for me!!!!You are soooo lucky. Your card is so adorable - love the little girl and that umbrella is so great. Congrats on winning the stencil and getting the very cool Rooster card - I love that stencil. Great card - hugz!!!!!
ReplyDeletePS - how sweet you make cards for another wonderful cause - another way to manifest your word of the year. You know, I told a friend in India about your word and we are both coming up with our words too.
wow, what gorgeous cards.Love the first one, great idea for paper piecing the umbrella. Love how you did the clouds in that second one,
ReplyDeleteOh you made me laugh ...that sounds like something. My husband would say to me....well he usually says he will take me to Shady Pines......
ReplyDeleteLove the beach card! Up until today we have been having beach weather all January.
Simply gorgeous and wonderful coloring. Beautiful work!
Jill....loving your creation, always do! Your hubbie did a great coloring job as well. Often the beauty is in the details and the CAS really came together. Thanks for joining the Dreamweaver Stencils challenge this month.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the extra advertising for Dreamweaver! I love your usage of the Umbrella stencil...so clever. Keep posting your creations to the Dreamweaver challenges!
