Quick Birthday Card

My husband's birthday is coming up and my mom asked me to make a card for her to give to him just a couple of hours before we were to celebrate his birthday...this is what I came up with. 

A white panel was stippled with  Lettuce, Stonewashed and Denim Adirondack inks.  The sentiment was stamped with Versamark ink and embossed with black glitter powder.  Then it was layered onto a black panel and glued to a white card.  You can't see it in the picture but two lines were scored on the right side using a Score-Pal.  Light blue, dark blue and silver round stickers were placed at the edge.  This was super easy and I'm pleased with how it turned out.

Glitter Lace Heart

This is a heart I made 10 of for a swap at a local stamp store.
The heart was cut from cream cardstock and background words were stamped with Beige Brilliance and then over stamped with lips (Stampendous) using Pink Pastel Chalk Ink.

Torn decorative paper was glued to half of the heart and a skeleton leaf rubbed with mushroom Adirondack Ink was was placed under the torn paper. Glitter glue was then placed on the torn edge.
Love (Stampendous) was stamped and embossed on cream paper using champagne and embossing powder, layered to brown paper and two brown corner mounts were added.
The glitter heart was made by cutting a heart out from sticker paper using a Sissix die, placing lace on top and sprinkling with pink glitter, shake off excess glitter, remove lace then apply iridescent glitter. Layer on to a larger brown heart.

XO (Stampendous) was stamped at the bottom of the heart an embossed with champagne embossing powder. The cream edges of the heart we're sponged with Beige Brilliance.

Thank you for stopping by!

A Heartfelt Thank You

Looks like I'm ready for spring with this Thank You card! The bottom half of the white panel was embossed with a Cuttlebug folder, the middle was masked so the top could be stamped with flowers that were colored with markers. The sentiment was stamped in black and ribbon was added. A butterfly was added with pearls down the center. All stamps by Hero Arts.

Criss Cross Card

I'm using up some of my pattern paper and this is a great way to do it! All it takes is pattern paper, cardstock, punches, stickers ribbon and a couple of stamps and you are done...easy.

Thank You

I found a stamped piece in a drawer and thought it was time to make a card out of it. It's made with blue and green chalk inks, added a paperclip and skeleton leaf.

Halloween Time

Happy Fall everyone!  Here is a card I made using a Stampendous stamp that I inked with Versamark and embossed with a black glitter embossing powder.  I then Colored it with watercolor pencils, cut out the images layered onto card stock and glued to a black card.  I then applied two different widths of double sided adhesive and sprinkled with green and purple glitter.

The Big Move

We have just moved to Oklahoma from Southern California and what a big change it is.  Never would I have thought I would move away from where I was born and raised!  My husbands job got transfered and we had to go where the job was, so we packed up the house, kids and my mom and here we are!  I think we will really enjoy it, the people seem very nice and the pace of life is slower...now just to meet people.

My stamp room is all in boxes and the moving company smashed two of my book shelves.  I'm hoping to find room for all of my stuff...maybe I should start stamping and use some of it up, that would take care of the problem lol.

I hope all of my stamping friends are doing well, I will stop by your blogs and check on you.

XOXO
