Field Flowers

Hi everyone,

I have been making cards but just not enough time to get them uploaded. Here is a beautiful stamp set from Stampin' up called Field Flowers now retired. My card base is neenah card stock cut at 10 x 7 folded in half to make a 5 x 7 card, I used a white layer overlay that I cut with my cricut machine. I then use a SU die called frame-lets label collection. I cut one layer in pacific point  and a smaller layer in neenah white cs. The flowers are stamped in marina mist for the first layer and pacific ponit for the second layer. The leaves and stems were stamped in olive green ink. I cut the flowers out and layered them on the card with dimensional dots. I used the butterflies die from SU for the butterfly and added a small button in the center. I will enter this card into this challenge

In Sympathy

Hi everyone,

I have needed some sympathy lately and like everyone else it is very hard to create them. I seen a card on Pinterest similar to this one and though I would case it. Its very lovely and easy to make up. I am sorry but I don't remember the persons name that I cased it from.

The card base is neenah cs folded to 4.25 X5,5.I took one of my embossing folders and embossed the front layer only using my big shot machine.  I used a layer of Neenah white to stamp the SU pocket silhouette leaves. I used the stamp full strength and stamped off onto the white spaces between using  SU black ink. For the sentiment I have used the large scalloped oval punch. The white layer is neenah cs and punched out with the large oval. The sentiment is from the SU Thoughts and prayers set. I punched the small flower in black added a sm rhinestone to the center to finish off the front of the card. The inside has a beautiful sentiment. I made a few of the cards to have on hand as you never know when they will be needed.
I will add this card to this challange

Hi My lovely followers,

It has been a while since I posted but I was off with a broken wrist and it took a bit longer to heal than it should have. Then I just seemed to have lost my mojo along the way.  I was cleaning and purging in my craft room and it just made me want to get back into the creating mode. I created this card this morning and decided I would post it. The stamp is Sarah Kay and it is such a cute stamp. I just wanted to do a quick card for a birthday girl. I coloured the image with spectrum noir coloured pencils and I really enjoyed sitting down and relaxing with this image.

The card base is neenah cs, The designer paper I am not sure as it was a scrap I used. The blue is SU bashful blue. I used Martha Stuart vine trellis  border punch. The ribbon is also from my stash. The sentiment is from the Pink Stamper set country living. It has some cute saying in it.

Stamp Sets - Sarah Kay, Pink Stamper
Papers - SU, Neenah cs
Ink - memento black, spectrum noir colored pencils
Accessories- ribbon, MS border punch

I used a Hidi Swapp background stamp on the front of the base card. There is no name so I will call it a music sheet bg. The image was printed onto neenah cs and colored with copics following the colors from the colored image. E00,000, YR21,21. BG10,11, RV01, R27,29, N0,0,4,6. I layered the image onto SU bashful blue cs. I distressed the background using blue pan pastel.. I punched out some leaves using MS punch. I then added three leaves together and added red rhinestones in the middle for berries and one on the top right.The red ribbon is from my stash. I used glitter on the white parts in the background. The glitter doesn't seem to show in picture but it is really pretty.

Hi everyone,

We have a new challenge this month on Faires in Time. The theme is  anything goes. Our sponsor is Digital Paper Crafts and I am using Halloween girl. As you can see I put a gift over the top of the pumpkin making it into a Christmas card by adding a free clipart image. . I don't make a lot of Halloween cards so it just seemed fitting to take the image and change it to suit what I could use. I printed the image onto neenah cs and colored it with copic markers. E00,000,11,31,35,51, R20,22,24,27, N0,2,4,6,8, I added more black into her eyes to make them look bigger. On her top I added a few polka dots. I then used a spellbinders tag die to cut around the image. I sponged blue pan pastel around the background and left a white border. The DSP is recollections botanical noel pad. There is a SU ribbon and a double bow added to the right side. The tree is memory box small tree with a red sequin on the top. I colored the pearls red with R27.  The presents under the tree were cut from a square and a rectangle. I added red marker to make the ribbons. I then added a metal flower from my stash on the top left. To finish it off I took the SU small banner punch and punched out the two gold banners at the top of the card. The small flower that was added above one o the pearls is to hide some of the red copic marker that smeared onto my image. I hope you have enjoyed my altered image card and will try adding something to change your images to make them more versatile. 

I will add this image to this challenge.

Hi everyone,

I have made another card with the darling doggies set. I set them up together and  and then added the first dog again separately. I used the striped background then printed them onto neenah cs.  The card base is recollections kraft cs.  I fussy cut the first dog and popped it up with dimensional dots. I wanted the first dog to be a bit darker so I used copic markers E24, Y21 grass YG24,03. I printed the sentiment Fuff day but only used the Ruff to add to the dog house. I thought it would be cute to add a but of doodling on the roof of the house so I added small stripes then faux stitching using SU real red marker  I had 3 buttons. I hop you have enjoyed this card. I will enter it in these challenges.

It's The Little Things

Hi everyone,

Here is my second DT card for Deedees Digis. This is still the montly challenge set called Fall Warm-Up. This time I have used the hot cocoa. My card base is Recollections dark red. The DSP pad had no cover on it so I have no idea what brand it is. I printed the image onto neenah cs and used SU riding hood red and distressed it around the whole image. I did the same with the sentiment. I then added white enamel dots and a beatiful yellow bow. I added foam to the cocoa layer to raise it up over the sentiment. I finished the inside with the same DSP and added white paper to put the writing on.

Wine Gets Better with Age Post it Holder

Hi everyone,

Our challenge at 613 Ave Create this weeks sponsor is Bugaboo and the theme is make a post it note holder or anything goes. I am using this stamp called make it snappy friends. I printed the image onto neenah cs and  water-colored the image with cotmans watercolor paints. My card base is Staples 110 lb vanilla cs cut at 4.25 x 11 and scored at 5.5 and then the top half was folded in half again. The DSP is from DCWV. It doesn't show much but I wanted the card stock front to look good when it was folded. I added recollections kraft cs around the image for more of a focal point. I stamped two of the SU petite flowers polka dot stamp and punched it with the matching punch. The flowers were inked using kiwi kiss. I had two green gems that I put in the center of the flowers. I was just going to glue the post it note onto the bottom of the easel but decided to make a box to put it in instead. The first box I made didn't fit the post its so I had to recalculate and redo it. I used MS border punch and added a small edge on each side and on the front of the box. They were distressed with SU crumb cake ink. The sentiment is from another bugaboo stamp.

Pastel Christmas Cards

To purchase the above image click here

Hi everyone,

I made these two beautiful ornament cards using Deedee's Digi  designs. I created the design in MS Word using the pre colored images. I printed them onto neenah cs. I love the soft colors. On both of the images I have used the same image. border and sentiment.  On the first card I added some CTMH seam binding bows on each of the ornaments. I stamps our a few snowflakes added sparkle  to them and I think it turned out really adorable. On the second image I added sukura glitter pen to the ornaments and the stamped bows and it sure turned into a wow card. I printed out one of the paper sheets in the set and used some of it for a top and bottom border. I used SU soft sky cs cut 4.25 x 5.5. I cut the front bottom of the sky blue card stock using MS border punch. I really like how the both turned out. I hope you have enjoyed them. 

There is always a new digi for the month challenge at Deedee's.  It would be wonderful if you would join us.
