Sunshine Mermaid





At Tuesday Alchemy this week, we are excited to have our newest sponsor, Jesseas Designs. I was lucky enough to be able to use one of her digis. This delightful mermaid will be given along with a $10 Gift Certificate to a participant in our challenge.

I am using lots of yellow this week, so don't be surprised if you see more creations in these sunny colors!

Wishful Beach





Instead of doing the usual beach theme, I shared a little wish of mine with this creation.

It's a small view of a beach house. I've always wanted to have my very own beach house. I love the idea of stepping out your door & the big, beautiful ocean is there for enjoying.

Do you have a wish? Does it inspire you to create?

{PIN}spirational Challenge #14: Inspirational Photo - Sailboat


This week at {PIN}spirational Challenges, we are inspired by a very fun photo of a sailboat scene. Isn't it adorable? Everything is made from fabric. The cloud is puffy & white because it's stuffing. This is such a creative photo. I enjoyed viewing all of those fabulous details.

Our sponsor at {PIN}spirational Challenges is Di's Digi Downloads. They are giving one lucky participant a $10 Store Voucher! What a wonderful prize :)


I created my own sailboat using fabric scraps & a dark blue piece of felt that I cut to shape. The cloud is also felt that I cut by hand. A bit of twine & cotton mesh completed this card for me.

Have you ever traveled the seas on a sailboat? I have not, but it's definitely something I know that I would enjoy . . . if I don't get sick.

I was on a very small boat in Hawaii & it was very choppy water. I got sick! Ug, ug, yuck, but at least I had a big ocean to throw my lunch into & not on my neighbors. I know that they were quite thankful for that!

Was that a little too much information? I apologize if it was :) Changing the subject, I'd love to have you share your own interpretation of the photo. Link it up at {PIN}spirational Challenges.

Splish Splash

{ SAVE THE DATE ]

Tomorrow at Tuesday Alchemy, our Blog Hop & Challenge starts! Join us for tips, tutorials & prizes.

Starting on Sunday, June 17th, Pin & Tack's Vegan Barbecue Bonanza begins! Join me & my fellow vegans for yummy recipes, tips & prizes - It's time to get ready for grilling fun :)


The underwater scene is fabric NOT paper. I left the edges rough & it's not cut in a perfect rectangle. I think it adds a little to the card.



For dinner last night, we were joined by a friend & her son, so we decided to have pizza. Who doesn't like pizza? There is a fantastic place here, so we are never disappointed! This one has olives, garlic, red bell peppers & capers. It doesn't have any cheese or sauce - just a garlic olive oil. This pizza has the best crust & it's wheat, too! Yum, yum :)

These photos are from today after I reheated it & added my own homemade cheese sauce (on the side.)
