S2G Challenge #62 Something New

Hi Everyone,
Hope this finds all doing well.  It's not quite as hot today as it has been.  But that won't last long.  Well, I've got a bunch of Bridel Shower Invites to finish up.  But that means a trip to Wallyworld (50 miles roundtrip) I ran out of tull.  So I will get to my entry details this weeks challenge.  Thank You for considering my entry.  Have a good one.

Entry Details
S2G New Sassy Bride Image (My Something New)
Martha Stewart Punch
Glamour Dust


Flower Soft & Flowers that Steph http://stagnantlycreative.blogspot.com/  sent me for my Birthday. 
DP My Minds Eye
Copics to color

Stickpens & Heart Charm from Quixotic http://www.quixoticpaperie.co.uk/
And Last but not least

After seeing my card using the Bridel Songs image.  My neice wanted to know if I could change a few things on the orig. and make some invites for the shower she was going to give.
So here's what I came up with.  We kept the card simple because of having to cut cost for mailing.  So a little glamour dust for a touch of bling.  This is the project that will have me making a 50 mile trip for the tull.

Well, I think that covers it.  Thank You for considering my entry.

Hello Everyone,

Now for my entry details.  Thank You for considering my entry this week.

And for my something old. I used Tull that is about 8 yrs. old. It was left over from another wedding. And the bow ribbion is about 4yrs old. It was the perfect color to match what the bride has picked.  I'm doing the flowers for a wedding.  So my brain went there when I started working on this card.

Sugar Nellie Challenge #9 Gate Card


Hi Everyone!
I just love this little cutie.  Isn't she adorable? This is the first chance I have had to use her.  When I first colored her I was planning on sending her to a friend in Ca. so I  used her colors.  But !  I find that I am going to have to make another.  I just can't part with her.  Good thing that these are some of my colors also.  Well, since this entry has a lot of pictures with it I had better let you go & get to the details of my entry.  Thank you for considering my entry.

Entry Details
Image Sugar Nellie "Pen Pal"


Hair, Skin & Envelope are done with Copics
Prismacolor Pencils for the rest of the coloring
Glamour Dust,  Martha Stewart Glitter & Dodlebug Sugar
White w/Black dots Paper BoBunny
Blue DP My Minds Eye paper pack

Since I always get stuck making bows for everyone I wanted to make it so the bow did not have to be untied to open card.  So I used Picture corners to hold the image that then holds the card closed. You just slip one side of the image out of the corners to open.
Flowers & Ribbon are some I had
Stick Pens are from Quixotic Paperie
Spellbinders Fleur de Lis & Cuddelbug Embossing Folder


And the finishing touch on the back a button I had hot glued and center filled in with a BoBunny crystal
and now you know what the B in BJ is for.
I'm sorry that this was a long one.  Thank You for stoping by.
