Boy the girls have created  a "Bridesmaid"..."Church"..."The Couple" Digital Stamp & so much more!  You seriously DO NOT want to miss this Spectacular Blog Hop! 

S2G is giving away 2 Prizes for this BH. One will be the GRAND PRIZE...which consists of 3 of our NEW Bride Digital Stamps, some Bride Clear Stamps,lots of ribbon, inks, embellies, DPS,  glitter & some other fab girly-blingy things!  The second prize will be the pick of 2 of our NEW Bride Digital Stamps.

Are you ready to see my card??? I used a fun layout called an EASEL CARD. I just love these type cards. They are so easy and fun to make. My card is measured at 4 1/4 x 8 1/2. It's scored at 4 1/4 and at 6 3/8. My card base is neenah classic solar white. I used some DP that I got from hobbylobby and some silver cardstock. The image that I used is called "The Couple" from S2G's digi selections over at shirleys2girls web store. I used my scallop nesties for my border around the image and colored with my copics. THANK YOU to my fab friend Jane for helping me get the right colors with my copics for the grooms tux. I had never blended my grays to make black. I think it came out pretty good for my first try! What do you think? My "old" for the twist this week are the pretty filigree buttons on the base. You can't see them very well but they are pearlish and silverish in color and worked really with my colors. I tied a white organza ribbon around the side. I just love how this came out and hope you enjoyed viewing my project today.

Your next and last stop along the blog hop, will be my FABULOUS friend Georgia. Head over to her blog to see her awesome project.  We hope that you have enjoyed our hop down the aisle!

Don't forget to play along with the Twisted Thursday Challenge #61. The Twist this week is to use something "OLD" on your card. You do not have to use a specific image, just make sure to use something old. Head over to shirleys2girls challenge blog   blog to play along with us.

This week over at shirleys2girls it's TWISTED THURSDAY CHALLENGE time.

Are you ready to play along with us??? Well the TWIST this week over at shirleys2girls is to use PINK anywhere on your card or project or card.

For my card this week I used a digi stamp from shirleys2girls called 'Announcement with Heart". What a great way to announce that little special one that has just arrived.

Been gone for a while....Thank you for your support!

I want to take a minute to say THANK YOU to everyone for all of their support over the past few months and the many cards that I have received. My dad had been fighting cancer and on May 1st lost his battle with this ugly disease and I will miss him very much. My dad will forever be in my heart! I love you, DAD!

My mom is doing ok and my sister and I are there to support her. She is one strong woman and is the best nurse EVER! She took care of my dad for the entire time he was ill and she is my hero! She is an amazing woman and I want to say that I love you, MOM!

We're all trying to get back to some type of normal life which is really hard. This is the first card that I've made in over a month so I hope that you enjoy it.  It's another Twisted Thursday Challenge over at shirleys2girls and the twist this week is to use your FAVORITE COLOR on your card or project. Sounds pretty easy, huh? so no excuses for not playing along with us this week.

For my card this week I used a digi stamp from shirleys2girls called 'ONCE'. There are several images in this series of Ladies with Attitude and I'm sure that you will love them all. I love this color combination of grey blue/rose pink. I used some cute little flowers that I got at Michaels and then put a paper flower underneath for an accent. I hope that you enjoy my card this week and hope to get back in the swing of things soon.

Sorry I've not posted in a few weeks and I hope that everyone enjoyed their trip to PARIS!  I wish I could have gone but  I've got a lot going on in my family right now and have not been able to make any cards for the last couple of weeks.  I was able to sneak in an hour or so to play this week.

I just realized that we're on Twisted Thursday Challenge #53!?! My how time flies. I've been working with those fabulous ladies over at S2G, Deidre and Kristine, for a whole year and I've LOVED every minute of it!

This week over at Shirleys2Girls we're working on some warm spring things. The fabulous twist is to use FLOWERS on your card or project this week.

For my card this week I followed the sketch over at SFYTT (Sketch For You To Try).  I used a digi stamp from shirleys2girls called Bee-lieve. I just love all of their little critter stamps. I pulled out some old DP that I had stashed and printed my digi's out on neenah classic solar white. I LOVE that paper. I used one of my nestabilities flowers for my sentiment.  I hope that you enjoy my creation this week and if you want to see more fabulous work, head on over to the shirleys2girls challenge blog to view ALL of the DT's work.
