Creations by AR winners

 Good Saturday morning to you!  A short post  today to announce the winners of the templates from the Creations by AR blog hop.  What a fun hop we had! Thanks to all of you for stopping by to say Hello!

Today I am going to show you the "ES" In The Bag template I whipped up last night.  I had this gorgeous paper from the SU! Celebration catalogue (thanks Charla!!!)  that made up so easily. It took all of about 10 minutes, and part of that was picking the paper LOL! Very simple to construct.

To make the tag, I simply cut out one of the medallion pieces from the DP, cut it in half and added it to a piece of vanilla cardstock about the same width. Added another little rose on dimesionals on each end and layered on the poppy side of the DP.

This purse is pretty big and would hold a good sized giftie.  It is about 8 inches tall and 8 inches wide. (of course you can resize it any size you want as well) Teamie Lisa made it very  small to hold a gift card.

Okay Okay.....

The winners are:

From Courtney's Closet Special Playdate!

Once a month Libby's From Courtney's Closet Inspiration Challenge invites a special playdate to be the inspiration for that week's outfit challenge. Looky who is the playdate for September??? yep...that's my little grandson Cole! Hasn't he grown? He is now 2 and just a chatting up a storm. He is pretty busy though and doesn't have much time to chat with Gwamma on the phone because he has to go play with all his trucks. If he is not playing with a ball...then he is playing with TRUCKS! ....and of course he loves his new TRUCK pajama's. When he speaks, Cole never says "trucks", he has to say "TRUCKS!" Ha! He is not a quiet child!

I tried to capture his little rosey cheeks and his two freckles, one on each cheek (I don't think those show tho)

I am pretty rusty at making boy cards, so this was a challenge for me to just come up with an idea. I tried paper piecing a fire truck (it looked like something Cole would have made--YIKES), I tried stickers and then finally decided on this digital image from Mo's Digital Pencil Too! I still have not taken the time to figure out how to resize the images, but luckily Cole's Uncle Matt helped me out again! I have several of her digi's I need to make into cards...Her drawings are amazing!

Look at my TRUCK Gwamma!

Make sure to visit Libby's Little Addiction and join in this week...I would love to see your
creations!


ETA:
Karen and Mary have tried to get me to join their Copics Creation Challenge...but still being new to copics...I was very hesitant...but I think I am getting there! Maybe I will give this challenge a go! Red's are hard for me, but they are my fave! They seem to just make a mess, but I was real careful with my copics on this one! LOL

ETA: I am proud to have this card featured HERE on Mo's Digital Pencil TOO! blog!
