Belated Birthday and Blog Award

I am so bad about mailing cards.......so this cute digi turtle (and the Belated sentiment) made me smile!  Someone will get this card in the mail soon......

   My blogging friend Lynn posted a card using this cute image and I had to go snag it from Deedee's Digi's. This is a challenge where if you post a card with a digi, you get next month's for free.

  The image is pre-colored which really made it fast and easy! The sentiment (Happy Belated Birthday) and more of the numbered DP is inside the card.

Blog Award- I do not usually play along, but the mood struck me today- and I thought the questionnaire looked fun.....

Denise nominated me for a Blog Award- Pop on over and say Hi and see her gorgeous cards!!!

Here are the rules of the nomination:

Here are my 11 questions for the chosen bloggers

1.  What is your favorite coloring method? Copics

2.  What die cutting machine do you use and why? Big Shot- I had a Cuttlebug and it broke, so I started using the Big Shot I got at a SU party I had- love it.  And, I just bought a Silhouette Cameo.

3.  Do you prefer digital stamps or traditional stamping and why? I go through phases- but had a computer crash and lost a ton of digi's, so stopped using them quite as much. 

4.  What other crafts do you do except card making? Oh I have been creafting since I was little.....  I sew, smock, and love embroidery. I used to Cross Stitch alot, I knit, crochet and do dabble in beading/jewelry making a bit.

5.  What prompted you to start your own blog? I decided to give it a try to join a DT for a small company that was a sponsor for Technique Junkies.

6.  What do you do with all the cards you make? I do not send too many of them- so bad at that!  I send cards to the soldiers. The hospital I work at is building a Ronald McDonald house, so in the future, you may see more kids cards : )

7.  How many cards a week do you make? depends- 2-4 generally.  I am very slow at cardmaking......

8.  Do you have a craft room? Yes, it was formerly full of all of my sewing supplies, but now shares space with my stamping supplies.

9.   What is your favorite crafting? Papercrafting.  I rarely sew.........except for on my cards.
