About Me

My photo
I am a stay-at-home mom. I have been married to my handsome and wonderful husband for over 14 years. Right now he's battling stomach/esophagus cancer. So I do my best to craft when I can. I have two wonderful boys. My oldest, Garett, is 24 and served 5 years in the Navy. He's been home since the beginning of the year (2014). We are very proud of him. My youngest, "DJ", is 13 and in the 8th grade. I have two Border Collie mix dogs (Koda and Rugu), one Calico cat (Hydie), one orange Tabby cat (Bosley), one Tea Cup Chihuahua (Gigi...I LOVE her sooo much), a Chiweinnie (Lily....sweetest dog ever), and a Jack Russell/Chihuahua (Connor....AAALL boy).

Dream Big

This is a stamp I have been wanting to ink up for quite some time...and finally I did :)

Big Time Special is just so darn cute.  And I had so much fun coloring it in the watercolor technique using Tim Holtz Distress Markers.  I LOVE that technique.  It's sooo easy.  I thought I would give the image some great dimension and add a fence from Impression Obsession with a little bit of Flower Soft below.  I just love all the Phyllis Harris images.  I still have so many yet to color.

Thank you for stopping by and I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.
