Just some new art!

I haven't been creating too much lately...but here are a couple of items.

 This one is crimson, black, white and navy, the back ground is stamped (STAMPIN' UP) the sentiment is computer generated, the punch is SU, I hand drew a line inside (cat headbutted my arm at one point) The adorable pin up is from a now defunct collage sheet company. the flower is from a stem of silk flowers (black) with a crystal brad (MAKING MEMORIES) and the pearl brads are from AMERICAN CRAFTS.

Smeared and Smudged's April Sketch challenge

Smudgy Antics ..."Drop Dead Gorgeous"

This is my card for Poisoned Peas Please Challenge last week 

(I am part of the DT...I never got to post it to my own blog)

The challenge was "Fool's game" and we were all using a "Carnie" from SMEARED INK... both my "Tightrope walker" and the "Hurry,hurry,hurry" are from the "Carnie" set

I used the Mosaic Embossing folder from CUTTLEBUG, negative side up and trimmed it to match her "frayed-look" All Card stock is also from STAMPIN' UP

My sentiment is computer generated, button from BUTTONS GALORE, and  colored Hemp is from WALMART.

I drew in my own "tight rope" and the image is colored with PRISMACOLOR pencils and blender pencil.

I used the "Rocking Horse" image for my card

 I used markers and Card stock from STAMPIN' UP, Printed paper by K&CO., Postage Stamp punch by EK SUCCESS, Bottle, duckie and heart dies by CUTTLEBUG, and crystal brads by MAKING MEMORIES, and the digi Rocking Horse image is by THE CRAFTY PAD DESIGNS...at the moment the digi sentiment escapes me, but I THINK it might be from Desert Diva...not positive.

The horse is on pop dots, and two of the "baby stamps" on the bottom are on pop dots (for the easel card)

Robyn's Fetish Challenge #101- Cards depicting sports

Hello...I'm Late, I'm late...
SO SORRY....I have been basically a cripple since Saturday evening. Barely able to walk if you can call it that, my back was SOOO bad, and my legs also. I only got semi upright to eat, and only vertical to use the bath room since. I am not sure if it was from use...lifting and moving things...a bit more walking than usual, or if it is an FM flare...or both! In addition to the pain...I am weak all over, and feel so very fatigued.
The allergies aren't helping none either.  All of last week was rough, but this weekend, horrible.
Today is my first day on the computer, and even now...do not think I am staying long.
It is so beautiful out, I am hoping maybe later I will feel good enough to go sit out side for a short while.
I so HOPE you ALL are WELL and enjoying the LOVELY weather!
