Donalda - and the rules to accepting my award are as follows:A) first list 10 honest things about yourself - and make it interesting, even if you have to dig deep!
1. I love to color...I have since I was a child. My mother use to buy me these very small coloring books...They were only around 5x5 inches....around the size of a child's reading book. I use to love these little books and wouldn't allow anyone else to color in them...lol. I still love to look at coloring books....and love the smell of good quality wax crayons.
2. I love any kind med for coloring.....I think I'm kind of addicted to trying everything...I've used oils, acrylics, water colors....pencils....any new thing comes along and I'm always itching to try it!!
3. I dislike when people cut other people off when they are talking...it doesn't matter who it is....I think it is Rude!!
4. Although I can color my images quickly ....when it comes to making a card ...it takes me forever.. I take way too long choosing my papers...etc...
5. I don't like shopping when it the stores are crowded.
6. I am not crazy about pineapple on my pizza ...but put up with it because my family likes it.
7. I can't stand when people drink out of milk cartons......What?...too lazy to get a glass?
8. I hate waking up to dirty dishes. I just don't like seeing them..especially in the morning..being in the dishwasher is fine though
9. Sometimes it seems like this world is being taken over by junk mail and paper flyer's. I hate seeing them lying around all over...especially on the kitchen table!!
10. I use to smoke....I loved smoking .....but I gave it up in around 1988...and now....I'm like a Militant non-smoker...lol.
I'm passing this along to everyone....
Lim - Andrea - Behsan - Rosalien - 
Camilla - Amy - Ruby - You have to write down five things you are addicted to. 1. stamps.... 2 anything paper crafts..... 3. computer.....4. coffee......5. ice cream
Thank You All for these Wonderful Awards!! I am so pleased and honored that you have all thought of me...and I passing them right back to you lovely people...and to everyone that visits this blog!!
This card was made with the SC212 sketch. The fun stamp I've used on this card is from High Hopes and is called - "Party Girl Florence" The sentiment circle is from SU
The Flamingo is colored with prismacolor pencils (oms) and twinking h20's.I've used versamark and embossed the balloons with iridescent ice for sparkle.
The sentiment is embossed with winter white embossing pdr and is popped up along with the balloons for a bit of dimension.
The top accent is just a few pieces of ribbon and beads tied under the button.....I derived this idea from the fabulous ribbon blossom created by Pam Bassett who recently had a fabulous tutorial on SC right here - Ribbon Blossom
Paper: GP white, bazill, basic grey sugared Ink: versafine black, bashful blue, old olive Accessories: dew drops, button, bling, ribbon. iridescent ice, versamark, stitching, stardust pens, labels one die, CB swiss dot folder

The original Tooth Fairy has a wand in her hand....I cut it away and put a toothbrush in her hand instead....and popped her up on foam dimensionals. I've added glitter to the fairy's wings, bow, toothbrush and the dental floss inside. There is diamond glaze on her little slippers.
I made the little tooth pouches from a tiny envelope template I have. I stamped them with the tooth stamp and used a white gel pen for the little lines.

The Cute dragon on this card is from High Hopes and is called "Gavin' The Givin' Dragon"....the balloons are also from High Hopes.....http://www.highhopesstamps.com/
All the images are colored with prismacolor pencils (oms) and H20's
The dragon is is cut out and set pop dots....as is part of the star and ballons. If you look really closely you will see I added a tuft of hair to his head. Just a little bit of cut up fibres....set on a little dot of Tacky Glue.
I stamped the happy birthday on the balloons with the SU stamp set Amazing to Zany....just the perfect size for these balloons...and added embroidery floss for strings.
I used my label maker for the Hot Stuff sentiment...it worked so well and I was so surprised that I could fold it over like this on the corner.
The star I just drew on a piece of basic grey yellow paper...cut it out....and inked the edges with close to cocoa....added the button.
