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.

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

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

A Mothers day card



Eight of these for OWH. The black flowers are shiny embossed as part of the paper. I spent what seemed like hours poking the holes out of a dozen of these gold foil doilies. A pretty basic card but has it's charm. Somebodys mother will like it.

Using the ugly paper



You know how you buy a paper pad and wonder what ever was I thinking? That's what happened with this DCWV pad of butterfly paper. It was cheap and I sprung. The pink cardstock? A color in a pack of multi colors of Bazzill. Not sure that I have ever used a sheet of this particular color. It had 3 or 4 in the pack. So here I am. I combined the 2 and the card is pretty cute if you ask me.

Robot Miss You





I picked up this $1 stamp at Michaels. Paired it up with some paper from a DCWV small pad.
