Let´s Celebrate.....

Today

Scribbles

celebrate 1 year in the business.

I am so happy to be one of Sandie´s DT members. I got introduce to these fun images by the very talented and wonderful Lisa! We started celebrating last week with a treasure hunt. Hope you have found all the letters. This was the clue you got at my blog. I have coloured the truck with my ProMarkers and Faber Castel pencils.

This months challenge is

SPARKLE IT UP!

This month's sponsors...

Top Scribbler receives 3 digital images,winners choice
Top 3 receives 1 digi image

Donating: 7 digital images, winners choice

I have used a lot of metallic folio on the hearts on this image. Really fun to play with and it sparkles great. The only trouble is that it´s hard to take a good photo of it, but as you see further down I got a bit of a better shoot showing the sparkle. I have also used some enamel embossing powder that sparkles and some rhinestone to add bling.

I found this quote on a sticker and liked it so much that I wrote it up in words and printed it out. Also used some of my new things, like this little die cut edge from Kaiser Kraft collectables.

This image shows the sparkle a bit better!

I would now like to wish Sandy a big congratulation and hope that next year will be as exciting as this one been.

I would like to enter this card into following challenges:

Cards and More #97 - Anything Goes
Inky Chicks #20 - Anything Goes

COPY CAT

You can find this lovely freebie, Snowtime Scottie 3: over at the Digi Darla Challenge blog and the only thing we want is to see how you use it....

This is what I made, my first pop up card:

This is what it look like closed up. I think I might put a sentiment and some snowflakes on it when I decided who´s gonna get it...

I used this grey paper from Reprint bought at my local scrap shop, Scrapbutiken. Think it´s perfect for winter cards...don´t you think?

Also used some glitter snow on top of my die cut tree to make it look more snowy. Also added some of the snow to the torn edges of my paper and in front of the Scottie.

I coloured with my ProMarkers and Faber Castel pencils. I like how he popped up when you open up the card.

I also coulden´t resist a good snowball fight... lol!

So I added a digital stamp from SOG as well.

I picked this cute song by Monty Harper, just love it!

Loose Tooth - song lyric

I've got a loose tooth. I'm pretty sure for real
that it's a loose tooth. Put your finger here and feel it -
It's a loose tooth right here in the middle.
You can tell it's really loose; I'll let you wiggle it a little.

It's a loose tooth. I'm loosing more and more.
I've got a loose tooth. This is number four.
I've got a loose tooth. I can't wait to surprise her
when I show my teacher - I'm losing an incisor!

Did I show you my loose tooth?
Did you see what it can do?
I'll flip it back; now look underneath.
See the new tooth there, just barely peeking through?
If it's not out quick, Mom'll pull the old
String and doorknob trick.
It'll make my grin look funny,
but the Tooth Fairy's gonna show me the money
for my loose tooth.

I've got a loose tooth. I use my tongue to study it -
a loose tooth. It tastes a little bloody.
It's a loose tooth. I can twist it clear around.
And when I push and pull it, I hear a squishy sound.

I've got a loose tooth. I can freak out all my friends
I've got a loose tooth. See me swing it like a pendulum -
a loose tooth click clacking in my head.
It could fall out any moment cause it's dangling by a thread.

I say hello to Mrs. Corey
in the cafeteria line.
She says "How's that loose tooth doing?"
I say "It's doing fine."
But that "F" in "Fine" makes my loose tooth pop right
out of my mouth like a shot.
It flies across the counter and it
lands in the chili pot!

Now it's a lost tooth. Don't let it cause concern
it's just a lost tooth - if you find it please return it
it's a lost tooth - I sure it won't attack,
but I'm really really sorry if your chili bites you back!

Did I show you my loose tooth?
Well I lost it just today.
Sure there's a new tooth coming in now,
but there's a great big hole where the old one went away.
I really miss that loose tooth and all the
fun times we had.
I guess you can tell by now
that without my tooth I've been feeling really...
I'm feeling sort of... I feel a little...

Hey, wait a minute.... Guess what!

Another loose tooth. I'm pretty sure for real
another loose tooth - put your finger here and feel
another loose tooth - It'll really bowl her over
when I show my teacher - I'm gonna lose a molar!

It's a loose tooth. I'm getting so excited.
It's a loose tooth. It wiggles when I bite it.
It's a loose tooth, just dancing in my gum, singing
"Look out Tooth Fairy - here I come!"

Another loose - tooth.

I made this layout about my daughter loosing her first tooth! She was a bit scared when it started to wobble. We were at my Mum´s place and had just finished a bbq when I saw that her tooth was gone! I asked where is your tooth? And she answers, I spat it out on the ground. So there we were, the hole family crawling on the decking looking for her tooth! Luckily we found it and she put it in a cup of water to the tooth fairy.
