Bloom with Hope

Today's card is for Try Stampin' on Tuesday's sketch challenge #173.  Such a cute sketch that we have this week.  I used the new Rich Razzleberry and Old Olive Blendablilties, however the cardstock is one of the new In Colors...Blackberry Bliss.  I guess I can get away with that since the Blendabilites have varying shades. :)


Make sure you head on over to Try Stampin' on Tuesday to see all the other lovely cards made using this sketch, and once you're inspired why not play along. :)


Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Happy Watercolor Birthday

Happy New Year!  All I can say is it doesn't feel any different here today than it did yesterday.  It's cold and snowy...and I like it!  Well, I like the snow, but not the cold.  I guess I have to take one with the other though.  Since it is so cold and snowy I thought I would show you a couple of  bright and flowery cards I made that are similar to the sympathy card I showed you last week.  It's a new set out of the Occasions catalog that you can order from starting January 3!  I have to say I bought more than my share of things from the new catalog this time.  Lots of great stuff in it!  Ok, on to the pics of my two cards...







If you're wondering how I made these here's a few instructions...I stamped the image with Black StazOn, colored in the flower using an aqua painter and cut the flowers out.  Then I stamped the cut out image all over with a VersaMark pad, covered it with clear embossing powder and melted it with the heat tool.  If you don't want to deal with fussy cutting do all the same steps, but don't cut it out.  Instead you color in the whole image with a VersaMarker being careful not to go outside the lines.  That's what I did on the card I posted last week that is similar to these cards.  Coloring it takes time, but not nearly as much as cutting the flowers out!  

Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Happy Mother's Day

My last card for my April stamp a stack was a Mother's Day card.  I couldn't decide between the pink and purple so I went with both and let them decide what color they wanted to do.  I got my inspiration for this card from mamaxsix on Splitcoaststampers.  Hopefully  you can view her lovely card here

Thoughts of You

Today's card is for the Stampin' Queen's Sketch Challenge.  I had a few different ideas going around in my head, but it seems like a couple of the other ladies had the same ideas as me.  Wait, I think I have that wrong.  Since they did theirs first I guess I had the same idea as a couple of them. lol  So I went back to work and finally came up with this card.  I wish the shimmer paint showed up better in the picture, but I've come to realize my pictures will never look as nice as a card does in person.





Thanks for looking and have a great day!
