My parents love to get together with friends and play cards. I grew up with family gatherings having card tables all over and everyone played cards.So this card was a great one for a retirement card. The stamps are from Raisin Boat the set is Poker face #10023 and the saying is from the set No Loss for words #10164 I used momento ink to stamp the cards and Copic markers to color them and then I cut them out. I made a clear card from acetate and then did a mat of red and white stamping the saying on the bottom. This was attached to the inside of the card and the cards were attached to the front so they look like they are floating. I think it turned out just like I envisioned it in my head. I hope you like it and maybe it will inspire you to make a clear card.

Another Moxie Challange
Here is a card I had a little help with from my 13 year old daughter. We played around with the colors and placement of the petals under the white doily.I used Spellbinders Floral Doily Motifs die as well as the scalloped circles.The paper is from Raisin Boat as well as the Happy Birthday stamp.I layered the dies until I got the result I was looking for. I really like how it turned out.I hope you enjoyed it.

Just Rite stampers challenge projects
Here are some projects I did for a recycle or re-purpose challenge over at Just Rite Stamps. I had some things laying around just waiting for a new life. One was a tree candy box, the other was a drink flavor container and the other was some corrugated paper I had in a package. I hope you like what I came up with.

I finally found some time to stamp and Moxi Fab had a few challenges I decided to play along with. I did 2 cards from the same sketch challenge with totally different out comes. I used Raisin boat stamps for the animal card and the Flower card. As well as Momento ink and paper from Raisin Boat. The stamped images and mats were all cut using Spellbinders dies.
