Happy Saturday everyone.. and for those who jump start our economy every day… enjoy your time off!! This week has been filled with exciting stuff… I’ve won lotteries in the UK, Ireland, Nigeria, Sudan, and throughout Asia… I’ve also had close family members I’ve never heard of in England, Chad, the Congo and other parts of South Africa leave me millions and millions of dollars (bazillions!!) in their wills.. Yep, I’ve been overwhelmed with spam this week. How ‘bout you?
Really… I’ve been busy creating.. and have so many cards and projects to show you that I’m posting three today… all of which are inspired by great digital stamps.
The first is a digital image from Dustin' Pike's newest release and the card is for the Design D.I.V.A.S. challenge at my Splitcoast blog group. Our theme 
is Christmas in July and the challenge required snowflakes somewhere on our project. I used a scallop Sizzix die to cut the olive paper, used green and turquoise for a non-traditional look and colored with Copics. Did you know you can create polka dots by lighting touching the color with the tip of the colorless blender as I did with the scarf and hatband. I added liquid appliqué to the cuffs on the boots and shirt and used a heat gun to puff it up and create a furry look.
For the second card I used the tulip image from the KLM Digital Designs collection. This striking image was created by Sue West of KLM and it’s
… just perfect for coloring with Prisma pencils.. my favorite!! Check out all of their fantastic digital stamps and get some inspiration while visiting.
My third card is for the DareU2DigiStamp Friday challenge. I love this challenge and the opportunity to touch base with friends across the Pond and see all the inspiration and talent that Chris, Sandra, and their design team put together. This week’s challenge is to create a card (or project) using pink, black and white.
For my third card, I used this digi stamp from Mo’s Digital Pencil. Maurie Manning is brand new to the digital stamp world and the details in her sketches are amazing. You have to check them out.. she’s posting new items every day.
Thanks for stopping by, enjoy your day (check your email for lottery wins!!) and be safe in everything you do.

Oh my goodness, I thought that I'd done something this week to deserve all the spam, glad I'm not the only one! Your cards are all darling!
Hi Peggy --- great cards. I love your snowman card for the DIVAS challenge and the tip on using the Copic blender pen for the dots. I also have been getting a slough of lottery, etc. e-mails. it is so frustrating. I'm wondering who I gave my e-mail to that it got picked up for these things. I used to get them once in a while but now I'm getting inundated with them. Anyway, far too much stamping to do to worry about them. Thanks again for sharing your cards. I look forward to your next post.
