You know I think it just might be the paper. Every time I take a photo of a card using this paper it turns out with a blue tint. Being computer stupid challenged I have trouble with these things.

Here's a card I made with Beate's WSC40 sketch. I'm so loving all these challenges. Sorry about the blue tint to the photo. I just wasn't able to edit it out. Still learning with my (not brand new) camera.
I am not a huge fan of Martha's new craft line but her papers are really fantastic. The have a good weight to them and they are really different from anything on the market. I love this Out on a Limb Set from PTI it's one of my faves.
More Hippyness.. I just adore this Hippo in Melanie's Set. You can find her blog in my blog roll and at her blog a link to purchase this adorable set. I am constantly drawn to her animals the are so HAPPY!! The Phrase is one I typed on my computer and punched out with my slot punch.
Happy Easter to all my peeps out there. Here's my last Riley to share for now.. I am eagerly awaiting my order... I just adore this Riley. I think he's too stinkin' cute.
Here's another too cute Riley. Those girls over at Hanna Stamps really know what they're doing with him and Sophie huh?? I can't wait to get my hands on the new ones that just came out. My order went in yesterday soooo I am sitting here with itchy fingers waiting for the e-mail that says they're postal. This Riley was made using the WSC36 sketch.You can't really see it but I use stickles to make the shovel sparkle and the boots have dots of stickles in them too. The links are below to the Riley's and the WSC 36 over at Beate's Blog. The Riley's link if for the unmounted ones. She also sells them mounted. This Riley is headed to Iraq also in that box for Beate's DH. Just a little something to spread cheer for Beates DH who so gerously offered to spead the cards around.

OK isn't Riley adorable? I am so in love with these Riley and Sophia stamps. I wasn't able to order these images until recently and a very kind lady on SCS offered to send me some stamped on cardstock for me. What an angel.. Thanks Karloyn.
My BFF has a birthday coming up this month and the card will be on it's way tomorrow. We've known eachother since high school. I won't even say how long ago that was.. anyway here's her card.
How about sending this card to a friend for a shopping day? The shopabellas are too cute. The stickles I added to the DP showed up so well, I can't believe it.
Here's another bella card. The robbon is Mike's but it's almost identical to groovy guava.
