Wed. Sept. 30, 2015 A Wonderful Flower

This is a card I made using a beautiful Gina K Design's Flower from the Birthday Blessings stamp set.  I used Stazon Blue ink for the flower line image.  The flower, sentiment  and the leaves were cut on my Vagabond with the matching dies.

Glad you stopped by!

A MFP Throwback Sat., Sept. 26, 2015

This uses a MFP stamp set from Oct. 2011. called Country Thanksgiving.  Still a wonderful addition to my stamp library, and it was time to make a Thanksgiving creation for this upcoming Day, and using a new to me CB folder for the background, made for even more fun.
Aren't these wonderful Fall colors?

This is a CAS creation using the tea pot from the Relax a Bit set, from MFP's 2-2012 stamp set of the same name.

Once again I fussy cut the image and colored with Copics before I popped it up with dimensional.  An addition of the sentiment says  you Relax a Bit.  With Fall here soon, a pot of hot tea, while relaxing, seems like a wonderful idea!

This is such a beautiful fan, stamped using the Umbrellas and Fans stamp set from MFP,
from Jan. 2014. Stamped, fussy cut and colored with Copics.  I added a touch of ribbon and a sentiment to this simple beauty.  I just love the soft color combination that I used here!

So glad you came by today and hope to see you tomorrow.

Getting into the Fall mode with these fabulous swans from the Jan. 2014 set of the same name.  Yep "Swans" from MFP.  They were colored minimally, popped up after I fussy cut, and mounted on a bold colored CS piece.  I die cut leaf, balances out this card!


thanks and I can't wait to show you another card tomorrow, so come on back!

Mon. 9-21-2015 Merry Christmas Creation 2015

I spent the afternoon yesterday creating another Christmas card.  I started with a rub on my friend gifted to me.   The holly spring is from Theresa Momber's A Very Merry Christmas.
The DP is also Gina K. Design's and pulled the design together, with the help from some coordinating
card stock. 
I appreciate you taking a peak today.  Thank you.

9-20-2015 GKD Daisies and a Bee

 I made this one using the Spellbinder flowers and then I added the bee from Gina K Design's, plus the one flower center that has the heart!

Fun card to make!

Sat. 9-19-2015 A Thank You in Autumn

This is a great Fall card for someone special, that was made yesterday.  I used the wagon from the GKD Friends Til The End set and leaves from the Frame and Flowers 1 set, to place in the wagon.

9-18-2015 Two I made yesterday

I used Gina K Designs stamps for both of these cards.  The Daisies were die cut.  Spellbinder and Vagabond makes them easily and a little Copic added to the centers and for the bee finished this one.  Afterward I added a border of Copic around the Turquoise CS made this look multi demensional.

 The Birthday stamp was colored just a bit and then I added some Stickles for shine, and used a piece of gingham dp for a more masculine look.

Thanks for taking a peek!

9-17-2015 For a Dog Owning Friend

I used the Paw Prints CB folder and a ribbon treatment and a sentiment to create this card.

Wed. 9-16-2015 A Blessed Christmas

Here is another quick Christmas card, that has a little sparkle to it.  I used GKD stamps to create this one.

Tuesday, 9-15-2015 My First Tag for Christmas 2015

I used the Happy Birthday to You stamp set, from Gina K Designs, done with paper piecing.  This tag was made with my Vagabond and a Spellbinder tag die.  I can use this for a gift or I may decide to attach it to a card front!

Mon. 9-14-2015 You're a Hoot

Isn't this little owl adorable?  I am loving working with Fall colors and this GKD stamp set from the Autumn Wishes kit.  This stamp is from the Friends Til the End set, colored with Copics.  I added a ribbon strip as well as new Alison's Strips, that I cut out with my Vagabond machine! I inked those to contrast in color to the CS.

Thank you for stopping by today.

Sun. 9-13- 2015 Another Autumn Wishes creation

This is another creation using the Autumn Wishes stamp set by Gina K. Designs.  These flowers really make me happy and I wanted to use them with that gold color DP from GKD, after I colored with Copic markers, and added some strips of CS to balance the color of the flowers.

9-12-2015 GKD- Fall Wishes Water Color

I am starting to think that Autumn is really my favorite season, by the looks of all the Fall cards I have been making!  Here is another using stamp from the Autumn Wishes set.  I colored my stamp with Memento markers and then spritzed with water slightly before I put the stamp to the card stock- what a fun technique!

9-11-2015 Autumn Wishes and Branches

I stamped the leaves from the  GKD  Autumn Wishes stamp set, and places on a few simple panels of CS.  A wonderful ode to Fall, right?  The branches were embossed with a CB folder and my Vagabond.  I sponges with a little cocoa GKD ink to bring out the texture a little more.

Thank you for visiting!

9-10-2015 Dutch Fold

 Doesn't this just make you think of those Dutch doors?
I played and made this one this morning, using the flowers and papers from my latest STV kit.

9-8-2015 Two recent Creations

 So much fun working with the new sets from the StampTV kit this month!

Thanks for visiting.

9-7-2015 Thank you- from the new GKD kit

I can't believe it is Labor Day already.  Weather here is rather warm, so I decided to make this Thank You card today and share it with you!  I hope you are having a great day.

Thank you for taking a peek today and who knows, you might get crafty today as well.

Sun. 9-6-2015 Friends til the End- first creation new kit

This was the first card made with stamp sets just received yesterday.  It is from the GKD Autumn Wishes kit, and the stamps are called Friend til the End.  I colored with Copics and sponged with some Distress ink. 

So glad you popped in for a visit !

Saturday, 9-5-2015 GKD's STVFFKC13 Challenge

Here is the card that I made for Gina K. Design's challenge - a Fall Birthday card.

I paper pieced the tree tops and added that cute little owl with a sentiment. A touch of brown grosgrain ribbon acts as the ground for my trees. I love the simplicity of this card !

Fri., 9-4-2015 Happy Birthday to You in circles

I used the Happy Birthday to You GKD stamp set on a background of patterned paper from my stash.
Spellbinder scallops and lace provided me with a CAS sentiment. A button and some twine balanced out the card front.
I think this is a very festive card that hopefully will make someone smile.

Sure happy that you stopped to check this card out!

Thurs. 9-3-2015 STVAW6 GKD Release Challenge

The sentiment and the leaf on it, are Gina K Design's stamps, as is the acorn, from the Sun-Kissed Autumn stamp set.  The other leaves were cut using Spellbinder's dies and sponged with Distress inks. I used GKD card stocks for the base with a touch of Tim Holtz kraft glassine paper in the front. The acorn was fussy cut and then colored with Copic markers.

Thanks for visiting!

Wed. 9-2-2015 Pretty in Pink Tones, a GKD creation

This is a CAS in pink, on a lovely oval cut file.  I popped up the flowers on dimensional and add a sentiment from Happy Birthday to You.  The flower is from the Vertical Greetings 2 stamp set, that I fussy cut.

Tues. 9-1-2015 A Little Something that's CAS and Purple

I played a bit on Sunday and made this CAS card using a couple of hearts and a wine bottle from the Celebration Diva stamp set from Gina K Designs.
I really like the way this came together, but its simplicity makes it fun as well.

I am so glad that you came by to check out my card  today.
