Blue Skies Ahead

When I saw this card on Pinterest, I knew I had to make it. I use the Hero Art sky stamp and a bicycle cutting file from my Silhouette Cameo.

Check out Kimberley Makortoff blog, Art Keeps Me Sane.

This was a piece of cake to make, the sentiment was printed beforehand, and I added a sun with one of Stamp by Judith stubby.

Here is the result...

For My Friend...

For My Friend...

A quick and fresh little card I made to accompany a package overseas...
 The baker's twine is back, and I tried to find the right colors to match it.

I punched the linen card stock edge with a Martha Stewart edger.

The mason jar is a Stamp By Judith and I added a tag made with a Sparkle 'n Sprinkle little stamp. 

The little flower is part of a Fancy Pants Design set called Doodles and Things.

The coloring is made with watercolor pencils but I kept them dry this time.

Until next time...

Mason Jar Thank You Card

MASON JAR...

...thank you card.

One more! This one was an easy switch. 

I am still in love with the mini cards I made to accompany the care packages we will be making later this week (post #245).

I thought it will make a beautiful thank you card.

I just had to make it a standard 4Bar size.

I used a Rubber Cafe stamps for the daisies, and a Stamp By Judith mason jar stamp.

I propped the Mason Jar image with foam stickies and tied a very slim ribbon around the mouth of the jar.

I rounded the corner of the cards.

Watercolor pencils coloring give the whole image a smooth finish.

The sentiment was printed on my computer.

Until next time...

Pile of Gifts

GIFTS...

... and a whole pile of them!

This is another of the Stamps by Judith i found at the Scrap Fair in Anaheim last month. This is the place where I did the most damage.

It seemed to me that every single stamps of that lady was a "I NEED IT" stamp.
I left with a few and haven't regretted any just yet.

The other exhibitor that impressed me was "A Cut Above". They had all kind of flip card, stair cards, that would make an easy base for an OH MY! card.

I began using the flip cards, and am on my way to the stairs ones.
To be continued...

The flip card is from A Cut Above.

The pile of gifts is from Stamps by Judith, and  the cupcake in the middle of the circular sentiment is also one of their Stubbies.

You can download the circular sentiment at:

All the coloring was done with Copic Markers, except for the silver bow, I just used a sharpie there.

Until next time....
