Easter tulips

   I used Gena K's tulip stamps with archival ink on water color paper. I used zig water color markers to color them. I die cut them with a spellbinder egg die. The fun vines are a new Just Rite die set it also has 2 small stitched ovals. I embossed the back ground to add a bit of texture.
   Thanks for stopping in. I hope you are inspired to make some Easter cards.

Fast and simple Thanksgiving card

I wanted to do a Thanksgiving card for my husbands Aunt and Uncle who are hosting Thanksgiving and I was a challenge over at Mod Squad Challenge Blog Timed challenge one layer card. Game on so here is my card. I used a Gena K stamp by Rupa I had in my stash. I stamped the saying and then the acorn. I then used water color pencil to color in the acorn and done! It took me 3 minuets and 43 seconds. I took more time looking for my stamp set to use.
   Love how you made me think out of my box Mod Squad Challenge blog.
   I think I might just make a few more now that I found my stamp set!!
   Have a Blessed Thanksgiving.

Happy New Year

I found a bit of time to do a couple of challenges over at Stamp TV. One is for Flowers and the other is to make your own back ground paper.I hope you like them.

I stamped the flowers randomly on the card and then used prisma color pencils around the edges and then I pulled the color in with odorless mineral spirits.This was a make your own background challenge.

I used prisma color pencils on the inside of the flower and then I pulled the color out with a blender nib and odorless mineral spirits. I then ran it through a embossing folder. The green scallop was a spellbinder die which I cut from a pattenred green paper.
