Hey out there! I have a few things to share with you today...
First, I got another card from my Secret Pal! She is a much better SP than I am because I forgot that post takes time and didn't make a card for my SP for Thanksgiving! My SP sent me a very cute Thanksgiving card. Thank you!!
Next, is a card I made today for my BF's mom. A few weeks ago we all went on a trip together. She saw me coloring and asked if I like those "big-eyed things." (I was coloring a page of Some Odd Girl digis.) I took that as a hint to not use any cartoon-y images on her card. :) The stamp on the card is from The Paper Studio's Botanicals & Birds set. I was amazed to see that it's the same butterfly on one of the pages in DCWV's Garden Party stack. For some reason I keep forgetting that I got a gang of Colorbox inks from eBay; I used it for the butterfly, CTMH mini hearts, and ticket edges. A ticket from Tim Holtz, ribbon from Michael's, and a Rose Quartz Love Letter flower from Prima round out the supplies used for this one... I think this is the first card I've made without coloring. And I found challenges! Top Tip Tuesday - Layer Upon Layer and A Spoon Full of Sugar - Anything Goes
The last card I made last week but wasn't sure if I was going to send it to my Secret Pal. I think I can manage to make a few of these since it's only a 3x3 card. The stamp is from the dollar section at Michael's. (I'll put the company's name later; I forgot to bring my notepad downstairs with me...) The angel is colored with Copics and a Sakura Star Dust pen. I used the pen to go over the stripes on the argyle paper too. (Paper from DCWV.) And challenges for this one too - Incy Wincy Designs - #69 Blue & White and Pollycraft Monday Challenge - #71 Blue.
Thanks for reading through all that! Don't forget the Elegant Challenge at Guylou's and the blog hop this weekend!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful creations! I love your butterfly card. It is gorjuss!! :-)
ReplyDeleteYou are so creative!! Love the butterfly card and how you use the stamp for the pp and as an embellishment! The touch of pink is perfect! Love that lil angel!! It's hard to believe that it is only a 3x3 card, you made good use of the space! Beautifully done!
ReplyDeleteDo you know, I really like the kraft card with a rose and butterfly! A lot of people aren't onto the cartoony and cute at all, just like your friend. It's wonderful being able to cater for different tastes!!
