To my hubby

I made this card for my husband. He has been working ALOT of hours so I just wanted to let him know how much I love and appreciate him. The sentiment.

A close up.

The stamps are from The cats pajamas. I paper pierced her scarf then cut the edge with my fringe scissors. The rest of her I colored with copics. I used real red and crumb cake paper from Stampin Up! the ribbon is may arts. I'd love to know what you think.

Good luck cards

I just wanted to share a couple of cards I made for my daughters last week. Both girls had spelling tests on Thursday so I wished them luck buy surprising them with a card in their lunch boxes.

My oldest daughters favorite colors are purple and blue. So her card was made using purple and blue papers. My youngest daughter likes pink and green so her card was made with pink and green.

A close up.

The stamps are from MFT Emma and her backpack. I paper pierced her skirt then colored the rest of her with copics. The pretty papers are Stampin Up! Thanks for looking.

Grey IS the new black

I sure have been wearing more grey than I used to. It works as a neutral yet not as dark. When you live in the northwest I think you will try almost anything to brighten your day :D

So I saw this challenge and had to play along. Lots of beautiful cards. Head over and check them out.

Here's my card:

A close up of her dress. You really can't tell in the top photo but I colored her shoes red. YUM! Every outfit needs a pop of color!

This little lady is an a la mode from MFT. The papers are from my stash but I think they are from making memories. Her dress is cut from the same MM papers. The ribbon is May Arts.

Color Inspiration, Neutrals

I have a card for another fun challenge, a color challenge. I love seeing how everyone uses color so differently. If you haven't already purchased this magazine go get it! It is full of beautiful cards!



So I chose to make a neutral card. Those of you that know me would know that neutral is usually not my style but I thought these colors were so pretty together.

Here's my card.

Everything is Stampin Up! except the ribbon it came from Joann's. I'd love to here what you think.

SSSC100

After a pretty long dry spell I have spent lots of time in my craft room this week. I picked up a couple new stamp sets and have had lots of fun learning how to use my new copics. I saw this sketch and thought of this card.

This cute little bunny comes from The Cats Pajamas. (colored with copics) The paper and the blue ribbon are Stampin Up! The white ribbon on the tag came off a Christmas gift I received this year. I love the fuzzy look. Thanks for looking.

Happy New Year

I can't believe it has been over a month since I have posted anything on my blog. Busy times in my house. We sure enjoyed a wonderful holiday season.

For my first posting for the year I thought I would combine two challenges. One over at iheart2stamp and on over at OTWC. Thanks Jen for the heads up on both of these challenges!

So here is my card.

A close up of the little lady.

She is an a la mode from MFT. I paper pierced her dress and added some bling to her hair and hem. The lady herself is colored with copics (my Christmas present to myself!) I also added a touch of glitter to her drink. I'm not sure where the papers came from, I found them in my stash. Thanks for looking.
