5.31.2017 Playing with the new camera

These are fake cactus that I made by painting flagstone rocks from the garden and then stamped the little white flowers from a Gina K stamp set. 
I arranged them all in a bowl of sand to decorate the table on the outdoor porch.  I did make this arrangement last summer, but I needed to take a photo with my new camera, for practice. 
No card pictures today though! I am going out to lunch with 2 of the girls I graduated from high school with so many years ago.  I am so grateful that so many of us stay in touch,  We were from the last Class to graduate, before the school closed and was torn down.    

 

Here is also one I took, of one of my cats.

     

Tues., May 30, 2017 This works for 2 Challenges

I started wanting to make a card for MojoMonday499, http://mojomonday.blogspot.com/2017/05/mojo-monday-499.html



and then I saw the requirements for Gina K.' STV17MON22

(Black and White, with 1 other color. My other color are those little red gems.  This one fits both.
 I did it, didn't I?

My new camera came today, and this is the first photo I took.  Big difference, right? Now you know why I needed a new camera.

Fri., May 26, 2017 Thinking of You ------especially with this rainy weather.

MojoMonday 498 Sketch Challenge 5.23.2017

I used a little word stamp from Claire Brennan and Gina K Designs to inspire my sketch card here.

Here is Sketch MojoMonday 498

....and my take on it.  Thanks for visiting.

  I used GKD card stock and a silk flower and gem to make this sketch work for me. A little scoring was done to the khaki CS, for texture. The small flowers have added glitter to their centers, for additional sparkle. Picture 815.

5-23-2017 Masking Challenge for STV17MON21 for StampTV

I am thinking there will be a new camera in my future, since this one is giving me a hard time.  I apologize that this photo isn't up to what used to be great photos from me in the past.  Bear with me, for now, ok?

I used GKD stamps to make this card, and Copic markers to color the images.


Thanks for stopping by.

MOJO Monday 497 Sketch 5.15.2017

My camera has been acting up so that is why the blurry images!  Will try to rectify the problem with it soon.

5.14.2017 Happy Mother's Day CELEBRATE

    I used the sketch from MOJO Monday 496, and Claire Brennan's Sweet Think stamp set from Gina K. Design's.  A folder called Swiss Dots by Cuttlebug, created the background, along with some sparkly Stickles added to the frosting, under that Copic colored cherry.  
  Enjoy your day!  I definitely will, as my children arrive!

Sat. May 13, 2017

I have been trying to clean up the mess on my desk.  I started to work on a card this morning and things should be dry enough to photograph later today, and then I will post it for Mother's Day tomorrow.  Progress is happening albeit slowly!
