Anything Goes with Gossmere!



Hello and Welcome!!!

It's the gorgeous Gossmere!  Her tattered dress and sparkly crown are just a few of her fancy fashion accoutrements!  She is a girl who likes to dress up, play with dolls and sport an up-do!  Wa-hoo!

What do you like to wear to feel FANCY?  If I want to be fancy, I'll go for lipstick (a must), earrings and maybe a bracelet.  In my daily life, I am not much of a jewelry person.  I work with paints and all kinds of messes so I steer clear of the jewels most days.

Gossmere is one of my favorite Tiddly Ink's images!  She is a classic beauty who seems imaginative and fun!!!

I hope you found some inspo here!!!  Isn't that a word now?  Inspo?  Well, I hope it is!

Love,

Buttercup xoxo

Flamingos Greet Bathing Beauty!



She's not afraid of getting her feet wet!  This girl is all about soaking up that Vitamin D, even the flamingos find her friendly!  She's chillin' at the beach, she's Bathing Beauty!

As far back as I can remember, I myself have loved the water!  The swimming pool, the lake, the beach, the bathtub!…swimming until I was absolutely famished, in need of some mac n' cheese!  I remember how tight and sun kissed my freckled face felt, and how freezing my goose bumped skin was when it was time to go back inside, into the air conditioning.  Ahh…memories!

Although this image does remind me of my own swimming adventures, she also makes me think of my Grandmother!  Mi abuela Rosalina rocked a hair style and a fashion very similar to this image!

Well, hello by the way and thank you for stopping by!  My wish for you today is that you enjoy wherever water is present in your day!  May that be in washing your face, feeling the rain, or watering your garden, I hope you are lucky enough to experience the wonder that is water!  The human body is about 50%-75% water so, there's that to be grateful for too!  Yay water!

Happy Fabby Friday!!!

Love,
        Buttercup xoxo

New Image Reveal!


He's a very sassy Squiddddy!  
The kind that lives deep in the ocean!
He's so smart!
He writes letters!
He even knows how to do calligraphy!  
And right now he is "inking' of you"!
Could he be your Squiddy Boo?

Hello All Craft Enthusiasts from near and far!

           Welcome to today's post which I am excited to share with you because Tiddly Inks has released a new image!!!  It's "Inkin' of you"!  This little digi showcases an astute squid in glasses, with a feather pen, scroll of paper and jar of ink in-well not in hand-but, in arms or tentacles! The sentiment also comes with this digi image!

Bloom Where You Are Planted


       


           "Miss Anya Dressy"'s spring fashion is on point!
With a flower in her hair and a smile in her heart she is ready to greet the morning sunshine!  This card is inspired by The Greeting Farm's Challenge Blog.  The current challenge is to create a make with the theme of Flowers/Bloom Where You Are Planted!  I love that saying and that idea.  Wherever you are, bloom baby, bloom!
         
            Thank You so much for stopping by!!!
