Liebster Award

 

                                 thank you, Debi... for this blog connect!  
It was an awesome thrill to open my email, click on my friend's name, and find this sweet message from you!  
 As a newbie, I stand in awe of all of the blogs I read, and cannot believe you chose my blog to be recognized for the 
Liebster Award !!!
Thank you Debi for your friendship and encouragement!  Your emails and posts always lift me up and make my day extra special. 
This award is for blogs with less than 200 followers, 
and the recipient should pass the award on to 5 more bloggers.  
Choosing 5 more bloggers was a VERY difficult task for me, because I become so inspired by so many creative people! 
Most of all, I love receiving the tender notes from new friends and old friends,  and I soak up their encouragement as I continue to make cards and do scrapbook pages. 
Hopefully, through my feeble efforts at blogging, I pass on to others some of the encouragement I've received!

 So now, I pass this award on to those I enjoy following, hoping each of you realize how much I love reading of your adventures and creativity. 
  
This list is absolutely in no particular order...

Liebster Conventions:
*Thank your award presenter on your blog 
*Link back to the blogger who presented you with the award
*Copy and paste the award to your blog -
*Present the Liebster Award to 5 blogs that have fewer then 200 followers that you think deserve to be recognized 
*Let them know by leaving a comment on their blog

Be Mine


Hi there.....  This is another of my little valentines for grandson#3....  Connor Bear will be getting this card.  I wanted to give him a cute little turtle since they are stationed in beautiful Hawaii...  He loves the beach and seeing the sea turtles.
I used prisma pencils to color my image.....  Forgive my photos lately as my son took my camera to see his brother and family in Hawaii.  So I have been using my iphone....
Thanks for taking a peek!

Valentine Tilda



Entering card into the Magnolia-licious Challenge here
And also in the Manolia-licious highlites challenge here

I am loving this cute Mini Tilda.  Since I send out quite a few Valentines it is nice to use a mini to color for them.  I used spellbinders to accent a frame for the card base.  Colored with Copics and just added a little felt heart and some flowers/ribbon.
thanks for dropping by.

LOVE



 I'll be entering the card into the following challenges:
Totally Tilda Challenge blog for pink and red valentines  here
And for Simply Magnolia Challenge for Hearts & Love  here



Hi everyone.....  It will soon be Valentines Day and I have another little valentine to share with you.  I just love this sweet little Tilda by Magnolia.  I used Spellbinder dies - heart and oval shapes.  And beautiful ribbon that works well for Valentines.  Prima flowers, and pearls from an old napkin ring I've been cutting bits and pieces from.  :-)  Tilda was colored with Copic Markers.  The pp has little mini hearts on it.  Just a scrap from my stash.  The card is a mini..... 3x3
Thanks for stopping by.

New Baby... Welcome Ally

My neighbors had a new little baby girl today.... They already had a little 4 year old son and when asked what he wanted to call his baby sister he said alligator!  LOL  So she was named after that and shortened for Ally. We all thought that was cute.  Mom and baby are doing well.  This card will be for them along with my baby gift.   I used a cute little Baby Tilda image by Magnolia. 
Thanks so much for taking a little peek.
