Lil' Cowgirl

Happy day to you, I hope it is going well.

This is my very first Anya from The Greeting Farm card. She is just adorable.

She is part of a monthly card swap that I am hosting on SCS.

Our March hostess for the fabulous Jennifer B. she sent the image, designer paper and the rope.  The rope was difficult to work with, but I think it adds a nice touch to the card.

Remember to smile today,

Sleeping Angel

I am just thrilled with the way this layout turned out!

This is my darling Jenna napping, it was one of those days that she just sat down and fell right asleep. 

Which is very rare for her.

Today is sketch challenge day at The Stamping Boutique. This week's sketch is by Becky Fleck at PageMaps.com.

I am using Serenity from the Enchantment line of digital images.

To see what is new stop by, The Stamping Boutique.

The sketch is 8x8.

Happy Thursday,

Spring Luna - Pink and Teal

I just love Ching-Chou Kiuks Fantasty Art Collection stamps from Paper Jewels. 

I am drawn to their beauty and they let me express my fantasy side. 

This is Spring Luna.

I used colored pencils to shade and color her. Also added I little bit of stickles to her clothes. 

Paper Jewels carries these plus so much more....Bildmalarna, CC Design, EZ Mount and emblishments.

Enjoy your day,

Bamboo Serande

Happy Tuesday!

WOW, we are at the end of April!!!

I am so loving creating with Ching Chou Kuik's Fantasy Art Collection images.

At first the idea of coloring these beauties was so intimidating,

but I think I am doing a great job (patting myself on my back, lol).

This is Bamboo Serande.

She is colored with Twistable Crayola Colored Pencils,

 I added silver stickles to her top to give a sheer look to her clothing.

Besure to stop by Paper Jewels.

Thanks for visiting today,

Tracey

Twirling Fairies

Hello from Reno!  Chuck and I are a little vacation.  He is bowling in the National Tournament this week.

April was a busy month for our family lots of busy weekends, the birth of my adorable nephew Evan and Spring cleaning.  I missed our first  April challenge at The Stamping Boutique, this sketch is too beautiful to pass up. The sketch was provided by Becky Fleck at PageMaps.

Here is my layout, ' The Best Mom'

Butterfly Bear

Have you checked out Bugaboo Stamps?

They have some of the cutest digi stamps, there are so many you can spend all day just looking through their store. This is a digi image from the Butterfly Bears line.

I added a little bit of stickles to his antenas and wings and used some scraps from my stash.

He is colored with Copics and Bic Mark-It Alls.

Hugs and Smiles for you today,

Tracey

Let's Take A Walk.......

Today at The Stamping Boutique challenge blog, we have a double page layout challenge for you.

This sketch is from PageMaps.com.

Today we are spending the day at Lincoln Memorial Park in Springfield, Illinois. This is such a beautiful park around Lake Springfield.  Jenna was about 3 years old and loved it.  We had such a great time taking in nature.

I found this sentiment in my stash and can't believe how perfect it fits the day and my layout.

The designer papers are all from my stash and they are not even from the same paper line.  I was so happy with the way they all matched.

Take the time to enjoy nature and her beauty.

Let's Go To The Fair~~

Have you ever been to the Pig Races????

Every year we pack up the car and head to the Wisconsin State Fair and LOVE IT!!!

My favorite part are the pig races. 

It is so fun to watch these piggies run to finish and get a treat.  They get cheese puffs at the end. 

It just makes me giggle.

The little guy in the photo on the top right is swimming, well more like he ran across the water.

This is my family being silly.  We took our pictures in this tiny little car....

 that's my mom and dad on the right with Jenna.

Baby Evan, two days old and his first photo shoot.

He is so adorable, can't you tell I am just so proud to be his Auntie!

Hope you have a great day!

Spring Luna - Yellow and Pink

WOW, I can't belive how fast April is flying by.

It's Tuesday and time for my design team post for Paper Jewels.

Today I am featuring Spring Luna from Ching Chou Kuik's Fantasy Art Collection.

I am so excited to share this card with you, I am so happy with the way it turned out.

I used alot of shading on her. I used colored pencils and added pink stickles to her hair and mermaid fin.

Enjoy the day,

Tracey
