Happy Thursday (Wow the week is going fast!) I do have my winners today but they will be at the end of my quick ramblings. Lol.
I wanted to share a card with you I created using Distress Inks. This is my first attempt at water coloring with Timmy's fabulous inks and I'm loving it. It was a little quicker than when I normally color with my Prismacolor pencils but I'm thinking once I start venturing into all sorts of colors, my time frame is going out the window. However, that might take me a while to get there seeing that I still need about 30 of them. Lol!
This is a 5.5 square card. I used one of my new (to me) Anya's from the Miss Anya Dressy Set from one of my fave co The Greeting Farm. Love them! The sentiment is from my fave gal Kristal, KAndrew Designs.
I will be playing along with: Simon Says Stamp - Anything Goes. Simon Says Stamp and Show - Stitching, Faux or Otherwise. Cupcake Craft Challenges - Favorite Cupcake: #110 Pink and Brown. Sketch Saturday - Sketch 163. A Spoonful of Sugar - Pink and Brown.
I also wanted to remind you all that we will be having a special Getting Cricky Blog Hop this Friday, the 15th at 9pm Eastern (6pm Pacific). Our hop will be benefiting the "Run For The Fallen" in Maine Organization. Its an organization that helps keep alive the memory of our fallen heroes from Sept 11. That was a very sad day in our American history and we should always cherish our loved ones and always thank our heroes. Please make sure you come back tomorrow and participate with us in this very special hop. Plus we will be having an amazing guest designer. You wont want to miss her :)
And now for my winners (Sorry for the delay).
CONGRATS!!!
