OWH-Midweek throwdown-fall

Loosely based on OWH sketch #73. I used Prima papers put through an embossing folder. I added some distressing ink to the oval paper. The stamp is Inkadinkadoo. I bought it just for OWH cards. It seemed perfect.

OWH-Mid week challege-Fall

This is my version of a masculine fall card. I had my eye on this stamp at St Vincent dePauls for some time. It was pretty big so I hesitated. I finally broke down and spent $4.50 on it. My daughter says the image is a bear and looks like what she saw in Alaska many years ago. I don't know, I just liked it. I stamped the image then colored all of the black area with a Copic marker. I then copied it onto my computer and printed out all of these perfect images. I then filled in the color with Copics. I have 5 of the top card for OWH. The bottom 2 I am using for personal use. I used sewing on the second card. I wanted to do that with all of them but my machine wouldn't cooperate. The bottom card I used a glaze pen on the blue color. It really pops. On the top 2 cards the paper along the top was hand cut with decorative scissors. The paper is specialty paper that has a nice sheen. It was gifted to me from Australia a couple of years ago from a fellow cardmaker.  I wanted to do some more cards in different colors but my mojo left the house and the images went in the trash can.

Early Bird

I made a dozen of this card for OWH using various colors of paper on the bottom and different rick rack colors. I had my eye on this stamp at M's for awhile. I bought it using the 50% off coupon. It is by Hampton Arts. They make the small $1 stamps you can buy at M's. This was a $13 one.

OWH-Chocolate anyone?

I used up the last of my chocolates paper on these 6 cards. I wish I could find the paper without it being in a pad. It is from the DCWV snack food pad as is the raspberry paper.

OWH-clipart coming out your ears.

I am tired of looking at these in my cards to upload folder. I am doing them all so I can be done with it. I made several of each of these cards using Provo Craft clipart.

OWH-Mid week throwdown-Love

Here is my card for this week. I love this cheerful paper. I think I was able to get 6 cards from it. Can't really remember. I sent the cards off already and I have slept since since then.

I see I haven't updated the blog for a few days. I don't know where time goes. I had my ureter stent removed today so I am back doing percocet. I am not feeling too sharp. I want to finish up some cards I have been working on. Hope I don't mess them up.  lol

OWH-masculine card

I made 2 of these cards with this map. It was more of the strange paper my daughter passed off to me. It was a challenge for sure. The edge around the paper is silver. The card turned out well enough that I may go digging in my stash for more map paper

Presents

This adorable pre colored image is from Mo's Digital Pencil. I made several of the first card for OWH.

OWH sketch challenge #73

This card is made with We R Memory Keepers paper except for the red which is Bazzill. I used my new set of Recolections cling stamps. The first time the set has seen ink. The design in the bird went well with the contemporary look of the flowers in the paper.  I think I will spend the day using this set.

OWH-Mid week challenge-Thanksgiving

I pulled out some scraps and made 3 of these cards the same. The sentiment is from Create With TLC. I stamped the Prima flower with a Penny Black script stamp. I added some Crystal Laquer to the centers of the flowers to doll the card up.
