Robot Love

I made half a dozen of these cards. Five will go in the OWH box and one in my personal box.

Turtley Awesome

The precolored turtle digi and the sentiment are both from Create with TLC. I did 2 or 3 coats of colored glaze pens on the flowers to make the color pop. I have had the turtle digi for months and just never used it. I made 3 cards for the OWH box and one for my personal stash.

C is for Cookie

Messing around with some cookie paper. The animal cookie paper is older than the hills. I made a few of these for the OWH box. I thought a child would enjoy receiving it. The sentiment is from Create With TLC. I used crystal lacquer in a couple of different colors on the cookie sprinkles and the letter C. I popped up the sprinkle cookie for some dimension.

 Stay tuned for cards made with older than the hills animal prints. Oh my.

Addicted

This sentiment is a digi from Creating With TLC. I love my coffee. I drink a 12 cup pot a day. I have not been in the mood to color with Copics so I have been doing some basic cards. I made 4 of these. I put  3 copper colored Pearl Pen drops along the top edge of  the other cards. I am scanning this and the drops aren't dry on the other cards yet. I like blue and brown together and I thought this card would be good for either gender to receive

I have had a cold all week. I can't believe it. I had a cold on the cruise the first week in February and here I have another one. Funny thing is I have had a painful hand again like I did just before the cruise. I blamed that on holding my iPad. Had to take prednisone to heal it. This time I think it was from holding my 19 pound grandson on my knees facing me so I could play with him. He is a little over 4 months old and needed a lot of support. I have to blame it on something! You get to be 70 and the arthritis starts to kick in. The good thing is, it is in my left hand and I am right handed.

Okay, it is midnight and I am off to bed.

For The OWH color challenge

I chose yellow and green when Jan asked me for a sample card. I colored the butterfly with Copic markers

Under the sea

Using up some more papers from a pad. I used 3 octopus backgrounds and 2 with the pink octopus. For the first card I stamped the octopus on paper and cut out. I colored him in a few places and added some green Crystal Lacquer to his eyes and legs. The starfish stamp is from the same set of stamps. I also put lacquer on him. The feeling fishy sentiment is also from the same Recollections acrylic pack. The hello sentiment and the fish are from different sets.

I miss you.

I used a sheet of paper with hearts that I chopped up. Stamped the sentiment. I managed to use up 6 sheets of Basic Grey Kioshi paper from the small pad. Had to chop into a big sheet to do the card with 3 hearts. It wasn't easy even with all my paper to find colors that worked. These cards will go in my OWH box

More Mothers Day

For this card I used a tag I have had for a long time. I used a Cuttlebug alphabet set for the Mom. I was afraid the tag would have a problem adhering to the fibers so I fastened it with the heart brads.

I used a Penny Black sticker for this. This is it. I am sick of Mothers Day cards. I have 24 plus another 32 misc. for the OWH box.

Tomorrow my Gold Beach grandkids will make the 200 mile trip here for a couple of days.

Happy Mothers day

Version #2

Version #3. This has delicate white ruffle lace across the top

Still working on Mothers Day cards for OWH. On the top card I stamped the image, colored just a bit and went over the colored parts and the sentiment with a Glaze pen to make them pop a little. I have 4 of them finished, debating on making some more. I am out of this lace. The bottom image has a computer generated sentiment and I just added a flower. Trying to use up some small pieces of Designer paper so this is a one of a kind.

I moose you a lot

The stamp is from Our Daily Bread designs. I stamped with Memento and colored with Copics.

CAS Mothers Day card

A clean and Simple card. Waaay outside my comfort zone.  lol  This was one stamp and I cut it apart so I could ink up seperately. I stamped the flower twice to get the different colors. I rather like how it turned out. I have 4 like this and I may make some more. It went together pretty fast once I was able to get the computer generated sentiment exactly where I wanted it. If I had been real ambitous I would have used embossing powder. I wasn't

Home is where the heart is

In the paper purge my daughter gave me were some adhesive backed fabric sheets. The adhesive seemed very good so I made up a few cards. The sentiment is from one of The Hero Arts/Operation Write Home packs. These will be for OWH

others Day

I made a few of this design for OWH. I used different papers on them. This is the last chunk of this one.

If a kiss was a raindrop

I love how this turned out. I made 3 for OWH. The card is for the Our Daily Bread Designs challenge. The company contributes the cost of shipping for a box of cards to our troops. Each 25 cards in the challenge they will pay for a box up to 2 boxes. Each month is a different challenge. This month was tic tac toe. I used the first vertical row which was a brad, a die cut and a digi image. My sentiment is a digi image from Create with TLC.  I have the supplies to make 2 more of these cards. I want to put one in my personal box.

How've you bean?

For the coffee bean image I used 3 separate images from Bugaboo Stamps. I merged them in Word and made 1 image. Lot's of fun. I colored with Copics. For the sentiment circle I used a Fiskars stamp. I have a few coffee cup brads so I added one of those for a bit of fun.

In the top image I added a strip of paper under the sentiment. The sentiment circle didn't look right. Kind of like it was floating in space
