I tell ya these Riley releases sets just keep getting more and more
amazing. This time we have a set of travel "stickers" that are just
a hoot! There is something for everyone including one very glitzy
glamorous Sophie!

So let's get on with the show...
First up Zip Line Riley crossing the Grand Canyon! LOL!






















Next glamorous Showgirl Sophie. Ahh she was so much
fun to glam up with gold glitter, crystal Stickles and feathers.























Both of these cards use cuts from the Cricut Destinations Cartridge.

Who could resist trying to find a suitcase for the Travel Stickers Set?
I found a wood box that I covered with paper and edged with Tim
Holtz tissue tape (one of my new loves!)























These stamps with their tiny vignettes are just adorable.
 Aaawww ...Riley has a kangaroo friend!
Last but not least - my current obsession the
Cricut Word Collages Cartridge.
So just for grins and giggles here is Riley and his island hopping vacation.
Yes I did two because I could not choose which activities I liked the best.

Under the Sea

Vacation Warrior
























So which is your favorite?

Under the Sea with Scuba Riley and Mermaid Sophie

Therese, As always, you always have the most amazing cards! I love the suitcase, and the hat on the Vegas Showgirl is hysterical! The guy in the Grand Canyon looks super, but between the two cards I would have to say I like the Vacation Warrior with Hang Gliding, Zip Line and Waterslide Riley the BEST! I like the colors.

Sooo missed your spectacular creations during the peeks. Glad you got the computer issue settled. Love the mountains on Zipline Riley and the feathers on Showgirl Sophie. The suitcase is too cute, love that tape...might need to try that tape soon. I like the adventurous Riley board. :)

Wow, what a gorgeous work did you do. My favorite is Zip Line Riley, but the oders are also beautyfull

Rae Anne said...

Therese, I vote for Under the Sea. . .especially with all of the tropical islands that you mentioned. They always make me think of mermaids, and pirates, pearl divers, hula dancers, and fire dancers. . .:D All of your projects are fan-freakin'-tastic, but I love the way that Riley is zip-lining over the Grand Canyon best! :D MWAH!

Mitzi said...

Love them all but the Zip Line is my favorite!!!

Jackie said...

Oh my goodness! Look at all this greatness you created! Stunning job!
