A bookmark for Steph

Happy weekend!!!

Well maybe for some of you it's the weekend...

I still have work tonight and tomorrow night...

I'm super excited about the Bronco's game tomorrow!!

I'm all decked out in my Bronco's gear at work tonight!

And I know I won't get much sleep as the game is on early!

Ok, ok, ok so today I took an hour (or two) and created another bookmark

The one I brought for my work friend Sasha was such a hit that all the girls now HAVE to have one!

So I created this one for my dear friend Steph, who is almost never without her cuppa coffee!

I handed her a stack of digi's I had printed out, and she

of course picked out this super cute Saturated Canary digi!

And who am I to say no??

The sentiment stamp is from Unity stamps, and I'll be linking her up next Friday (the 18th)

for their Friends with Flair!

I love love love that stamp, especially since it has my word for the year BELIEVE in it!

First thing I did when I got up today was run to the mailbox hoping it would be there!

And it was!

Ok, so I finally took some time last night and watched a youtube tutorial on coloring hair...

I am so much happier with how the hair turned out....   Still a work in progress, but much better!

Here's her close up!

My only regret with this bookmark is that I covered up some of the cool stamping that I did...

Behind the digi there is an image of a bicycle, and the eiffle tower...

Seeing the eiffle tower is a dream of mine... Oh how I want to go to Paris one day...

And the bike, well it's sorta french, but it's a definite goal of mine to get in better shape this year!

Steph seems to love the bookmark, so I hope you all do too!!!

31 days of Halloween: Day 7

For the record the party went off without a hitch, and my mother in law

Had a fabulous time... The cops even showed up and asked us to turn the music down!!

Soooo for day 7 I'm sharing this fun ATC that I made

I wanted to use my new stamp that I won from Viva Las Vegas stamps

This is a good size stamp, and I wanted to try it out on aluminum foil

So I stamped it using staz on and let it dry (so about 30 seconds)

I then wanted to color the skulls and flowers, so I pulled out my alcohol inks

And I used a paint brush (gotta work really fast)

To finish it off I added a little glitter to one of the eyeballs. 

What do you think??

Don't forget today is the halfway point of the challenge at Anything but a card

And something like this is perfect for the shine challenge going on over there!
