You blow my mind!

I have lots of cards that I made for Christmas and otherwise that I have clearly been neglecting to post on my blog.  I will try to show those as soon as I can.

New years resolution (AGAIN) is to be better at uploading to my blog and pinterest. 

Here is a card I made for a challenge over at Kit and Clowder classrooms.  I am taking a new class called animals.  I am practicing how to do fish right now.  I love this technique, it is so cool.

I used copic markers to color this digi stamp from Susanas Custom Art and Card Design.  The card stock and ribbon are from Gina K Designs.  The bubbles were cut out with quikutz.  I created a background using Technique Junkies Newsletter 2004 technique called Bubble Backgrounds.

Colors used:  E15, YR14, YR07, Y15, Y11 (Fish); C01, BG000, B000, B0000, Colorless Blender (background)

Challenges: Kit & Clowder - Animals

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a crafty day!

Take Me To Paris

I just love this Saturated Canary stamp "Denise"...I think about coloring her in all different ways, hair colors, backgrounds...she is so much fun.

So today I decided to color her up with the no line technique (Krista includes a no line coloring image along with a regular digi image).  The Eiffel Tower is a digital stamp from Make It Crafty.  Zoe has so many cool backgrounds to use with all your stamps.  I masked her off and airbrushed behind her

I used this weeks technique of the week from the Technique Junkies Newsletter called Sponged Ombre Watercolors.  This is a fun and easy technique.

Here are the details on my card...

Happy Mother's Day

Today here is a card for Mother's Day.  I used the Technique Junkies technique called Tie Dye Circles.  The stamp is from I Brake For Stamps which I colored with copics.  The sentiment is from Inkadinkadoo.  I used my watercolors to color behind the stamp.

 

I used the circle from here cut in half to make the inside.  The sentiment on the inside is from Gina K Designs.

Mothers Day Card

Today I have a Mother's Day card to share with you.  I created this pop out card with a stamp set by Melanie Muenchinger.  I watched her video on StampTV and created this card.  I love this stamp set and love this new way to use it, I think I need to make more of them.  I colored the basket and the roses with copics (see colors below). 

 

I used the rose to create the background.  I embossed them and then airbrushed the background with my copic airbrush.  I just love the pop out card.  The sentiment is from Inkadinkadoo.

 

I am entering this card into the following challenge:

Spring has Sprung

Well, I am here is VT enjoying another snowstorm...my husband and I will be snowmobiling until the trails close on April 15.  This is the first time in a long time...love it!

Anywho, onto today's card.  I am using a really fun spring stamp from I Brake For Stamps. (Sentiment stamp is from Penny Black). The papers are from Gina K Designs.  I cut out the swirls with my Sizzix dies.  I added some bling with my Sakura Glitter Pen...my fav!

I had some inspiration (in the shower...which happens more than you think)...I decided to color the birdhouse as if it was made out of wood with my copics.  The stamp is open and allows for you to have some creative license.  I really love how it came out...just like I imagined!

I hope you like today's project, join me tomorrow for some more inspiration.

Have a great day!

Happy Birthday - CAS

I love clean and simple cards, don't you?

This is one is done with Gina K Designs papers and sentiment.  The rose is from Impression Obsession.  I colored it using the Technique Junkies Newsletters' Technique of the Week called Spray Mist coloring.  It was fun to do and very easy. 

My hubby and I just got back from a snowmobile ride and I colored this up and here it is.

I hope you all have a wonderfully crafty day!

Happy Birthday Dad!

My dad's 63rd birthday was on January 10. We are going to dinner tonight so i finished up his birthday card. He really loves classic cars and I love this digi stamp that I found at Paper Garden.

I used a couple of different techniques from the technique junkies newsletter, out of the box, pulled color and drywall distress. I colored the truck with copics. The roses are colored with faded jeans distress ink. I mixed the distress ink with water and perfect pearls mixed in a spray bottle. I used a Stampin Up! punch to make the corners. I also added hardware from Stampin Up! That I colored with copic refills to match the truck. The blue cardstock is from Gina K Designs.

The inside of the card reads "No matter your age...you'll always be a classic".

Hope you have a crafty day!
