Butterflies & Lilies

Hi Blog Friends,

Today's card is another card we sent to Kim.  Butterflies and lilies.  I love the stamp, and it was a fun one to color.  Kim's favorite flower is the Star Gazer Lily.  The butterflies are Martha Stewart punches.  I want to say that the stamp is by Peddler's Pack, but I'm not 100% sure.  It sure looks like a PP stamp.  The stamp takes up almost all of the card front.  Tiny pearls were added to the butterflies, and distressed ink is on the outer edges of the wings.

Thanks for stopping by today.  See you again soon.

A card for Kimmie.....It's Paris!

Hello Blog Friends!

Today I'm posting a card I made for our daughter Kim.  She has a grey kitty named "Paris"
When I saw this stamp, I had to get it and make a card for her.  Paris is such a funny little guy.  I think he thinks he's a dog.  I'm serious.....when Kim calls him, he comes right over to her.  She can even ask Paris for a "kiss" and he gives her a little kiss.  So cute.  I made this card awhile back.  Kim was sorting thru papers and found her cards, and asked if we wanted to take pics of the cards.  We said absolutely.  The image was colored with colored pencils .... before I discovered Copics and Spectrum Noir's!  These cards are vintage coloring.  :o)

Thanks for stopping by today.  I'll be back tomorrow with another project.  

Doggie Sympathy card from Marcie

Hi Blog Friends,

Our friend, Marcie Lofgren sent us this lovely sympathy card when we lost our sweet fur baby, Piper.  I was going thru cards the other day and came across it, so thought I'd share it with you.  I don't know who makes the stamp.  Love the clean design of this card.  It meant such much to us to receive it.  Thank you, Marcie.

Thanks for dropping by today.  See you again soon!

Ruby Red Slippers

Hi Blog Friends!

Today's posting is Ruby Red Slippers.  So much fun to color and embellish.  I used pearls, die cuts, gears, brads and an embossing folder.  Now I haven't worn heels in years....and I really can't imagine wearing these, but they do make a cool card.  

That's it for today.  Thanks for stopping by.  See you again soon!

Le Peep

Hello Blog Friends,

We didn't get a picture of this taken before Easter, but I still wanted to share it.

Aren't these little Peeps adorable?  I just fell in love with the stamp.  It came from The Hen House.

Easy coloring, and I added some punched out flowers, and drew the stems and leaves.  

Thanks for dropping by today.  Have a great weekend.!

Time to Create.....a collage

Hi Bloggers,

Today's post is a collage taught by our group Technique Master, Lydia Carrell, last week.  She's taught us some really fun projects, and this one is right up there with the other collage project she shared.  

I mentioned to Lydia, that it's nice to do something different and experiment with new supplies.  We used gel medium, paints, dress patterns, lace, rubber stamps, embroidery thread, shimmer sprays, die cuts, tulle, mini gems, perfect pearls, flowers buttons and an adorable little clock charm.  Lydia provided most of the materials.  Thanks, Lydia!

Thanks for dropping by today.  :o)

"Zentangled Inspired"

Hello Blog Friends,

Quickie post today.  I joined the ATC swap for March.  The theme was "Zentangle Inspired", so here' my little guy with Zentangled wings.  The stamped image has blank wings, so I was able to do my Zentangle in four wings.  You can't see it in the pic, but the body of the dragonfly is Stickles.  Wish you could see the glittery body.  If you haven't tried Zentangle, try it....it's fun!

That's it for today.  Thanks for stopping by.
