PholkartBlessings Color Challenge is Here!

Yippee!!! The first PholkartBlessings challenge is finally here! Our colors for this challenge are Pink and  Teal. I used Beach Girl on my card, I love her polka dot swim ring, you know me and polka dots.

Here is the inspiration photo for the challenge:

I don't know about you, but that makes me want to run to the beach. The challenge is simple, create any type of project--ATC, card, scrap layout, etc using the colors pink and teal and the inspiration photo above and then link it to the PholkartBlessings blog. The winner will receive 2 digi images of their choice from the PholkArt Blessings shop. The winner will be announced on AUGUST 29th.

(Here is a little secret--if you are the winner and you have used a PholkArt Blessings image in your creation, you will receive a coupon code for an extra image from the P*B Etsy Shop.)

I hope to see your design!

Another Card Cupids Card

I have another card to share for the current Card Cupids challenge. The Card Cupids are being sponsored by Fresh Brewed Designs and the challenge is to use any shade of blue or make a birthday card for a child. The image I used is called Grace Summertime. I remember my nieces wearing little outfits like that when they were little and this image reminded me of my niece Zoie. She has always loved being in the water. 

I hope you will join our challenge!



And a big "THANKS" to Lorraine and Becky for the suggestions to help with the problem commenting on blogs. I updated my browser and no more problems! It was weird since it was only certain blogs that I couldn't comment on, the others has no issues at all.

Riley and Sophie on Vacation

I am  so glad the weekend is finally here! Since I was out of town last weekend and on the road so much, it felt like I didn't have a weekend, that makes this one even better. Kip is out of town on business and my plans for today pretty much include me, my Copics and a huge stack of images! The challenge this week on the Riley and Company blog is Riley/Sophie on Vacation. I know I would love a trip the beach about now, so I made a beach/water themed card to represent their vacation. Bikini Sophie and Fins Riley images are from Riley and Company and were colored with Copics, I used papers from Bo Bunny, a Fiskars wave punch and some brads from my stash.

I hope someone can help me with a problem I have had commenting on some blogs. It isn't all of them, but several blogs that I have been reading and commenting on as well as some new ones. Normally when you go to the comment area, below the comment box there is something along the lines of "you are commenting as (in my case) Gina Lindsay. If I am not signed in there will be a drop down box that allows me to select a profile and then I can sign in from there. Over the past couple of weeks I have been to several blogs it has that "select a profile" drop down box, even if I am signed in, but it will not allow me to select anything. And since I can't select a profile, I cannot leave a comment. Most blogs I read I am not having this problem with, only about 7 or 8 of them. If I sign in with my same log in info and try to read or comment on these same blogs on my iPad, I don't have any issues, it is only happening on my desktop machine. Does anyone else have this problem or can you tell me how to fix it?

Thanks!

Card Cupid's Summer Fun Challenge

Welcome to another Card Cupids' Challenge! This challenge marks the first month that we are doing two challenges. For this challenge we are being sponsored by Pholkart Blessings and the challenge is SUMMER FUN. I know when I think "summer" I think of water so I chose to work with this adorable mermaid for my challenge card. We hope you will join our challenge for a chance to win some Pholkart Blessings images of your own. My card uses the image Mermaid Girl and it was colored with Copic markers and some pearl paint for her necklace. Papers are from DCWV, and I added some little clear baubles that I bought at Michael's a while back.

Thanks for stopping by today!!
