Miss you robots

Bazzill had a line of paper I fell in love with. I cut up an entire sheet of these cute robots. It made 8 cads, 4 with the yellow paper and 4 with the red. The yellow paper was not Bazzill, the others were. They all had double sides. Each robot was different. On the bottom card I cut out from scraps and popped up the sentiment. 

The top card I will use for this weeks mid week throw down on OWH. The challenge was to use stripes. They show up behind the robot on the yellow paper.

Let's play ball

I used a Stampendous stamp called Sports Border. I only made 4 for my OWH box so I need to make more. Trying to use up odds and ends of printed paper.

OWH sketch #164--- Day 1 Pattern Play

This card will do double duty for this weeks sketch at Operation Write Home and Day 1 of the online Card Class Pattern Play.

I used 3 different papers all from the same line of Bo Bunny 12" double sided paper. After all of the strips on my 6 cards were already put on, I saw that I had not centered the design like the class taught. I will use the excuse that I am dragging around today. The dotted paper was used as a solid. I was able to have the flowers on the middle piece show. I did manage to use 3 printed papers. The buttons were cut with my cherrylyn die from Bazzill Bling cardstock. I don't know the brand of stamp, I am thinking one of the cheap $1. Now that I have scanned the card I will pop up the buttons with Scotch dimensional tape.

Great Big Hugs.

Using my new Stampendous stamp. Some of these papers are REALLY old. I have lots of new paper but there is just something satisfying about using up old paper. The 2 bottom cards are made with Basic Grey Archaic line papers.

I did so many feminine cards in my last OWH box that I I am now in the mood for some that are more masculine.

I have 15 cards using this stamp

Mothers Day

I am not in the mood to do individual pictures today so you are getting an overview. I did multiples on some of them. All together I made 26 cards for the OWH box using these designs. The circle sentiment is a Hero Arts stamp. The other sentiments are computer generated.

Yet more owls

This uses the Hero Arts stamp I bought a week ago. I like to call him "My Sophisticated Owl". Hero Arts calls him "Big Eyed Owl" and indeed that fits. I think the image is suited towards a little older group of people than a lot of the owl stamps. Perhaps to the teenage kids. The first card uses the front and back of the paper from a K&Co. Confetti pad. Lots of birthday papers in it. I can't remember what paper I used on the second card. I made 4 each for my OWH box.

Swirly bird nest

This is a Stampendous stamp I bought and then wondered whatever was I thinking. It has a rectangular image. When I stamped it it was plain ugly. That was months ago. I had another look at it. I stamped with blue Paris Dusk Memento on lightly patterned paper. I colored the bird with a Copic marker and then added a layer of  Diamond Glaze to make it pop. This time I cut in a circle. I have 8 of these for my OWH box. The one with an overload of pearls I will keep in my personal stash.

Lion in recline

 

 

This is the first time I have used this huge Magenta stamp. I bought it last summer at a yard sale at my LSS. I paid about $2 for it. I put my paper on the floor and stepped on the stamp. Had to trim it down to fit the base. I colored it with Copics.

I have so many stamps I want to make cards with. I get busy making a dozen at a time and I need to stop doing that I guess. I will be making 4 of these and then I will move on to another stamp.

Challenge #1

 

  

 

The challenge was to use zig zags on your card. The image is a pre colored digi from Doodle Pantry. The chevron and polka dot papers are K&Co. I used clear glaze on the treasure. The sentiment was done with a no longer available set of Karen Foster snap stamps. I made 12 of these cards.

 

I want to show the green paper I used as a mat. It is from a DCWV Snack pad. I bought 3 of these pads because it had paper in it that I really wanted. I was left with some pretty interesting paper.

CHALLENGE #5 

 

I hadn't planned on doing any of the challenges for this 3 day weekend VCMP but I kind of got caught up in it. I started with challenge 5 which was to use sketch #63 and use up an entire sheet of 12" paper. I do that all the time so it was no problem. I made 6 of these cards using this sheet of Serendipity Owl Pals. I had 2 sheets so I used some strips from the reverse side to use for the narrow strip. The sentiment is computer generated

 

 

 

 

 

CHALLENGE #4

 

This challenge is for things with wings. I used some cute bird paper by 3 Bugs In a Rug that I bought two years ago. How do I know? Because I put the date and the price I paid on the edge of the paper. I will be making 6 of these. The sentiment is computer generated.

 

 

 

CHALLENGE #2

 

The theme of this challenge is All Creatures Great and Small. The paper is by Imaginisce. This paper is one of my more expensive ones at $1.59. It has a lot of the wet look embossing built in. I couldn't bring myself to cover up the design with a sentiment. Hopefully someone will like it because the lace makes it special. I will be making six of these cards.

 

I am going to have to add a focal point to this card. It is not working
