Loads of Presents

I thought this was a fun boys card (big or little). I water colored the truck with watercolor wonder crayons, distressed the edges of both the image, mat, and bottom of the card front. The designer paper comes from the Simply Scrappin' kit "Best Ever" the stamp set is "Loads of Love". Card base is Close to Cocoa, matting is Real Red, image is stamped with stazon on watercolor paper

Baby Hippo


Hippo is made from punched out paper, if I were to do it again I would pop the head up on dimensionals. Card base is Kraft and the designer paper is from the Best Ever Simply Scrappin' kit. I also used the red Hemp to tie around the base of the card

Pocket Silhouettes

When I first made this I wasn't sure I liked it, when I looked at it the next morning I liked it a little more... later that day a stamping friend asked if I was going to offer it in my Wednesday 20 of 20 stamping. Well the answer is yes. It is ready for today! The colors are Very Vanilla, Not Quite Navy and Baja Breeze. The Very Vanilla has a diamond grid scored into it.

Sweet Sunday sketch challenge #4




I used the challenge for both of these cards. The first I used Raspberry Tart designer paper and the second one I used Taste of Texture designer paper. I wish I cold figure my camera out because the second card is beautiful in real life! My bronze circles just don't show up in this picture.

St Paddy's

I can't get the colors to show the right way... The base is Old Olive, then Really Rust and whisper white. The hat is Garden Green, the beard is Pumpkin Pie. I'm not into St Patricks day so I haven't bought a stamp set for it. I thought I'd make a card using punches. It really does look better in real life.

Trying to decide...


This could be a Wedding or an Anniversary card. The bottom heart is punched from the Tastes of Textiles paper pack, the top is card stock Vellum with Mr and Mrs stamped on it. I'm still trying to decide what to stamp below the Ribbon. Any ideas?

Lovely as a Tree- Leaves


This card is 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" I tore the upper part of the Old Olive card Front off, the layered pieces with the oak leave stand above the torn off area. Very Vanilla lines the inside of the card and shows where I tore off the top. Really Rust was used in the layerings.

Voila- As a card


This is the last thing I made with the stamp set. I paper pieced the pant and neckerchief with the Riding Hood Red designer paper. Watercolored the rest. Easy card and fun to make.

Thank You- Black and White and Red all Over


Shaving Cream Thank You, I used all 3 red reinkers on this But found that you could not tell the difference between it and the one I did with just Riding Hood Red. I used markers on the thank you from the under $10 section in the catalog.

1/2 sheet Heartfelt Thanks

This card only uses 1/2 a sheet of card stock. No other paper was used on the card. I tore off part of the card front, sponged the torn edge, turned the torn edge around, attached the straight edge behind the torn card front. Easy card to make.
