Happy Birthday


Hello.
Tomorrow is my daughter, Amanda's, birthday.
I made a card for her from her hubby, Ant, as well as one from me.




I have had this "Panda" stamp set from  The Ton for a while.
It seemed perfect for Ant to give to Amanda.
The background is silver embossed. The paper strip is also embossed, with gold.


This was my card to Amanda. I love the Altenew Vintage Rose stamp set -so much fun. Love the results. Once the dies became available had to have those too. The sentiment is from Avery Elle.
I cased this card from Tracy Mae Design.

Thanks for stopping by and to my new followers "Welcome"

HOT, HOT, HOT

Hola!
It's days like this that make me want to move to Antartica!
I spent the week-end in doors, in the studio. Only went out to see "Antman" at the movies- hilarious, tons of fun!

Moving right along. A Day for Daisies challenge is to use one of their images with newsprint. Good thing they offered a "freebie" because the thought of looking through my digi images to find
"Brother Owl" did not appeal to me AT ALL.


 
I made four copies of this lovely image. Two I used newsprint for hair, two used it for her face. I'll post those when I put a card together. Colored with Copics. Sentiment is from Unity Stamps.

Hope you like her as much as I.

Talk to you again, soon.

Hello, Summer!

Hello and happy belated Father's  Day and Independence day.
I have been obsessed with art journaling, stencils, and creating pretty backgrounds.
It's a good thing, though, because my card box is over flowing even after I made several Gift sets. 

Today I want to share two cards I made a while back. 



The picture is not very good but IRL there is a lot of Copic coloring and Wink of Stella!
The stamp set is Penny Black. I love the Cats almost as much as Hedgies;) it's a tri-fold card with the cat hanging from the tree branch. I did a bit of manipulating to get the cat to hang from the second section of the card.



I think this little one is a Mo's digi. Colored with Copics. Isn't she sweet?

I'll be sharing some of my journaling soon😉

That's it for now. Hope to be back soon. Thanks for stopping by.

Spring???

Hi, All.

It seems we had a very short spring...It's 32 degrees out with lower temps expected this week-end.

I do have a couple of cards to share...


Perhaps you recognize this image? This time I water colored her. I stamped her owl companion on the inside. I tried something new on the card base. I masked the stripes and used distress ink.


Do you recognize this Saturated Canary image? I love her...So sassy! I colored her with Copics.  I've been trying to experiment with colors more I agonize over which ones.

That's all I've got for you right now. I'm watching "Nashville" Who knew Luke's kid could sing?

Happy Spring

Hi,  Friends.

How are you? Surviving the winter I hope.
The question is how did you survive the winter? since today is the first day of spring!

I have been busy creating cards but this is the first time I've edited the photos.

I have a share for you...



I believe this stamp set is from Stamping Bella? Colored with Copics.

The plan is to be back with more pics.  I don't know if  I'll get a chance since it's my birthday week-end.

Thanks for stopping by.
