Christmas in July....a few days late....

Hello lovelies, how are you doing today?  I spent the morning looking around at all the different challenges going on this week and saw a lot of Christmas in July challenges.  SOOOOOOO  I decided to take a couple of my newly acquired Tiddly Inks digi images and start playing...  It all started with a little witch... Yep, Alison the Witch started all this craziness and I am totally happy that she did!  So anyway Christmas..... I have some really funky christmas papers that I have wanted to use for a while and never really had an image I wanted to use with them, but this image just screamed out to me that it wanted to be paired with this paper so I did it! 

The layout of the card is a sketch from Sweet Stamps blog and I am going to enter my card in their challenge.  So what do you think?


Isn't she cute!!! I know cute and Kelli don't really mix but I was feeling the cute mojo today... I also have a couple of other cards in the works for the next couple of days also with images from Tiddly Inks so be on the lookout for those!!! 

Challenges entered:
Pollycraft - Christmas In July
Craft Your Passion - Christmas in July
Totally Stampalicious - anything goes
Crafty Creations - Christmas in July
Sweetstampsblog - Sketch

Bombshell Blog Hop

Hello Lovelies, It's time for another Bombshell Blog hop!  I am so excited that we started doing these again, I sure did miss them!  This month our lovely Blog hop Captain Alison set forth a color task...These are the colors she wanted us to use...

aren't they lovely.  I really really tried to use all 5 colors but try as I might i could not get it to look right for me.  Now when you see my card your going to say, well hell Kelli, Koi (from my new Bombshell set Lotus Garden) fish aren't those colors anyway... Well let me tell you something, it's a fine line I am walking living in the real world versus Kellitopia and I just so happened to be in Kellitopia the day I made this card so the Koi fish are this color there!!!! (I double dipped on this card as it is the Bombshell sketch challenge also!!!)

So welcome to Kellitopia, come on is, grab a cuppa and sit a spell....It's fun here I promise....(insert evil grin and laugh here).

Now leave me some love by way of commenting for entries into this months drawing!!!  Then after that head on over to see what everyone else has created!!!!  If you haven't been hopping and just came here well then aren't you sweet but now head on over to the Bombshell blog to get the hop started!!!

Smeared Ink New Release part 2 and 3

Hello lovelies, I hope this finds you all doing well!  Today I am showing you the two projects that should have auto posted Saturday and Sunday as a continuation of Friday’s release blog hop!  It really aggravates me when auto post doesn’t work!

Anyway, as stated in Friday’s post some of the DT members for Smeared Ink chose to make more than one project with the new images that were released.  I chose two more.  On to the first one.  I combined this little guy with this months card sketch challenge on Smeared and smudged.  Be sure to go to Smeared Ink to see the whole release!

The second one I chose to make a tag out of.

Again, sorry they didn’t post when they should have but I hope you are enjoying them all the same!!!

Smeared Ink New Release Hop


Are you ready for some creepy inspiration? The Smeared Ink DT has arranged a hop to horrify!
This will be the first of two Halloween Releases by Smeared Ink. The second release will be in September. There are a total of 11 digi sets being released on 07/15/11 plus one preview single image. The single is part of one of the sets to be released in September but we thought it would be cool to give a sneak peek. Click here for a peek at the sets being released.
Here is my offering for the hop:

Haven’t you always wanted to be able to say that to someone, well now you have a way to say it and give them something pretty at the same time…. 

Now remember to go on over and see what everyone else has done for the hop we are all using different images and also some of us will be displaying images from the other sets over the next few days!

SISC67…3,2,1 challenge

Hello lovelies and welcome to my 2nd challenge as a Groovy Gurl for StampInsanity!!!  Last time was such a blast, I couldn’t wait for this one.  It was a challenge for me as I don’t normally use buttons or ribbon on my projects but I found that letting others pick out color schemes or papers for you makes it a tiny bit easier!  This weeks challenge is to use 3 buttons, 2 patterned papers, and 1 ribbon!!!  So that’s what I did.
3,-2-1-card
I let my daughter pick out the patterned paper and colors for Pierrette, isn’t she lovely!!! The cardstock is SU, the patterned paper is BasicGrey and I have had the buttons for so long that I can’t remember where they came from, same as the ribbon…The saying is also from StampInsanity and as we all know I am Queen everyday!!! 
Now hop on over to see what everyone else has made for you today!
