Thurs. June 30, 2016 Challenge Birthday Card

I made this for a STV Birthday card challenge- STV16MON26, on StampTV.

I stamped Melanie's Stately Flowers 5 image along with a sentiment from that set.  This is a CAS design, so would be fine for either a male or a female recipient.

The image was stamped with Memento ink and colored with a mix of Copic markers and Zig water color pens.

Wed., June 29, 2016 Eat, Sleep, Fish

I created this card last weekend, after Karen did the bubbles on the acetate video.  I wanted to try it once again since I probably did one like this many years ago, but I just can't remember.

I CB's the acetate fussy cut the fish from Theresa Momber's Gone Fishing set, which was all mounted on some GKD Green CS.  I added a touch of ribbon from my stash to balance it all out!

Let me know how I did, ok?

Tues., June 28, 2016 Remember my GKD Visit

I decided to make this card to memorialize the wonderful visit I had last week to see Gina's new store.
  I was thrilled, to say the least!






It was so good to finally meet her since I have been doing business with her for about 10 years.  It has been so long and I don't remember it exactly!'
I stamped with Art from the Heart, Theresa Momber's The Giving Tree, and an added tag with a sentiment from the Scripty Sayings2 set.

Saturday, June 25, 2016 Pretty Pink Hydrangea

I used Gina K. stamp sets to make this one.  The Celebrate label is from Theresa's Vertical Greetings 2 set and the flower and its wrapper from Melanie's Fill It with Flowers set.  Along with coloring with my Copics,  I used pop dots to add a little lift to the image.Only its wrapper was fussy cut this time.  All was mounted on CS from GKD though.

6-20-2016 Challenge STV16MON25

Our challenge today was to make a card, with tea, coffee, or donuts.  This is the one I came up with today.

I used a set from Gina K Designs called Love You,  from 12- 2014.
Although I am a huge coffee drinker, my hubby is the tea drinker.  I make him a mug of it every morning.  I colored the mug and used the colors I did, because he is Dutch and these are their national colors too!

Fun challenge!

6.20.2016 Another one

This is for the mojomonday 453 sketch.

Monday, June 20, 2016 To Celebrate Spring's Last Day

I made this card yesterday to celebrate the last day of Spring 2016, which happens to be Dad's Day too.

Sunday, June 19, 2016 Watercolored card

My dad is no longer with us, but Happy Father's Day to my husband, and his two sons that are now fathers this year. 

This card was water-colored and then stamped with Theresa Momber's  By the Sea 2 stamp set from Gina K. Designs.   A fun project to create yesterday, and it was very relaxing to do. I just put ink on a teflon mat and then spritzed water before I dipped my water brush to color.
Gee I really felt like an artist-hahaha I fussy cut the boat and popped it up on dimensionals!


Thanks for visiting too see my creation!

I was playing with some older stamps set in my craft room yesterday and these are two cards I made to show you today.  Both sets uses Gina K. Design's set, one being a Theresa Momber set from a few months ago.  The other is from a Stamp TV set that was a freebie from Gina a few years back.

I hope you enjoy taking a look at them today.

Thurs. June 16, 2016 Distressed daffodils

Here is another card, that I happened to whip up yesterday.  I added a base of green card stock from STV, and a foam base to add dimension to the whole image. What a fun bunch of flowers from Gina K. Designs Sending Love stamps set.

Thank you for visiting!

Wed. June 15, 2016

What a joy to get this card made and posted for Wednesday.  We had our internet connection repaired on Tuesday and I was going crazy without being able to surf the net and post any cards either.
  Here is what I have for you today though.

These are two that were made using stamp sets from Gina K. Designs.  I colored with Copics, and colored pencils too.  The second card was made using a MOJO Monday. blogspot sketch.
Lots of fun following the design.

Thanks for stopping by today and hope to see you soon.

Tues., June 14, 2016 With Love and Prayers

From Gina K. Design's Sending Love stamp set, a card that states "with love and prayers".

I did some sponging, coloring with Copics, and 3D layering.  I added a bow to tie it all together, color-wise, after putting it all on a pink base A2 card.

Mon. June 13, 2016 Sending Daffodils

 This was such a fun image to color.  I used Copics and popped the cardstock on some Black Onyx, for definition.  I made this one after watching Gina's video on Saturday.  This Gina K. Design stamp set has so many images that are absolutely gorgeous.

Thank you for visiting.

Sunday, June 12, 2016 Pretty Hydrangea

Using the Gina K Design Fill It with Flowers by Melanie Muenchinger makes for simple but beautiful card. I fussy cut and raised it up with some dimensionals, on a sponged background.

 I hope you like this too.

 Happy that you came by to take a look!

Saturday, June 11, 2016 Vase with Daisy

I made this card yesterday using a few of Melanie' s stamps from the Fill It With Flowers stamp set.
The vase and the flower both were fussy cut, and the Background was sponged with ink.  I added dimension for the bow to add a little depth!

Please leave your comments about this creation of mine.  Thanks

6.2.2016 SC595 Splitcoast Sketch Challenge



Here is my take on the sketch.  I used MFP stamp from the Gerber Daisy set, the Cuttlebug Dotted Swiss Folder and some plaid dp, that was on my desk.  I added a few pieces of Memory Box scalloped CS that I trimmed, to add to the vertical areas. Not a very complicated design but one I had fun making. So glad you stopped by to peek at my work!

6.1.2016 Just Because

This is a card I just made this morning, using misc. GKD stamps that were sitting on my desk.  The sentiment is from the Just Because mini set and the leaf is from Melanie's Year of Leaves set.
The photo is deceiving, because the card measure 3.5  x 4.0 " not the usual size I make.




Thank you for looking at my Wednesday morning creation!
