Burgundy Birthday Blessings

Hey ya'll! I'm back with another card using the Happy Birthday set from Our Daily Bread designs! When I saw the inspiration challenge this morning I had to make this before going to work for a couple of hours today! I was inspired by some gorgeous wall covering in a burgundy and rose color combo. I stamped the Rose Red layer with one of the stamps in the StampinUp! set called Friends 24-7 in Burgundy ink, then ran it through my little bug and sponged the edges. I colored the image with copics C1,C3,C5,E74,G21,G99,R37,R85 and Y21. I used various Spellbinders dies to cut the image out. Then I used my new Spellbinders Lattice border threaded it with ribbon and folded it over the edges. I added some bling and butterflies to finish the card! Thanks for looking! I should be back soon with a sneak peek at the upcoming September releases from Our Daily Bread designs! You're gonna love them!!!! See ya!

Rudolph With Your Big Nose

Hi!!! I made this tonight even though I am exhausted! I needed the therapy! This is for the color challenge today, Real Red, Chocolate Chip and Kraft and a neutral. I embossed the Kraft layer with a Cuttlebug folder. The deer image is from SU! Winter Post set and is stamped in Red and cut out with a nestie and layered in nesties. The red strip is punched with Martha's border punch and the brown strip is scored in a lattice pattern with my scor-pal. I added organdy ribbon and some Martha thread I found on sale at Michael's. Then I went a little too far and added the tiny bling to Rudy's nose! I think it's a little too big but it's done now! No turning back with bling! haha! Going to bed now! Thanks for looking and have a great day tomorrow!

Christmas Card Challenge and Featured Stamper Cards

Hey ya'll! Working on getting some Christmas cards done early! I made these last week for the Christmas Card Challenge to do 10 per month! Well, I am behind. I made 10 of each of these which gets me through May!

So today is Featured Stamper day and Joanne is the FS! She is so sweet! She gives such wonderful comments and does beautiful work! I chose her card here to case and made 10 so now I have cards done through June!!! Yay!!!

Joanne, enjoy your day as Featured Stamper and hope all of you have a great week!

Thanks for stopping by!

Thank You Jesus!

You know, these new SU! in-colors are so regal aren't they? I like them and I tried not to! haha!
Well, here is another card I made with the new Jesus set from Our Daily Bread designs. I stamped Jesus with Always Artichoke stamped off once and then I used the Rich Razzleberry marker to color the verse before stamping it over the image. I used my cuttlebug to emboss the artichoke layer and a Spellbinders die to do the pretty strip of Rich Razzleberry paper. I cut the leaves with a SU! die in Soft Suede. I added Always Artichoke ribbon, the cross charm and gold cord, and the pearls to finish the card! The sketch I used is one of this week's MojoMonday celebration sketches! Thanks for looking! Have a wonderful and blessed Sunday!

Be Glad In It!

Good morning!!! Let us rejoice and be glad! I made this card for the Midnight Madness sketch from this week. I colored this beautiful Our Daily Bread designs Happy Birthday image with copics. The numbers I used are C1,C3,C7,G21,R32,R37,R85,RV11,RV14,W7,YG95. Then I masked and stamped the sentiment several times lining it up around the image with a Stamp-a-ma-jig. (sshhh! you can see a couple of tiny spots at the top where I messed up! Don't tell!) I found this ribbon at Hobby Lobby on clearance! Isn't it pretty?! I used my cropadile to set the eyelets to feed the ribbon through. I added a double Martha Stewart butterfly too. The top layer is embossed with an embossing folder and I sprayed Pearl Glimmer Mist on it. I added a lots of tiny pearls to finish the card! What do you think?

No Flowers, No Ribbon, No Bling!

Hi!!! Hope everyone is having a great Friday! I just finished this for the LSC using the new SU! Autumn Days set! A great 'man' set! I used markers to color the images. I used a Spellbinders oval to emboss. Cut out the other images and tied linen thread around them. The sentiment from Very Versatile is cut out with the Word Window punch and attached with a brad. I distressed edges and sponged too. That's it!

Warm and Fuzzy Birthday Blessings

Hey everybody! I just finished this card for this week's color challenge, today's Ways to Use It challenge and one of this week's Mojo Monday sketches! This image is from one of this month's Our Daily Bread designs releases called Happy Birthday and it is so fun to color with copics! Such a versatile set! It's actually a watering can but I masked off the handle and spout so it would look more like a planter. I stamped the image twice so that I could cut out some of the flowers and paper tole them. I added Ivory Flower Soft for the WT to use something fuzzy on our project. The copics I used are C1,BG18,E00,E31,E33,E43,E51,E74,G21,G99. The image is layered with Taken with Teal and Vanilla and popped up over layers of Teal, Close to Cocoa, Close to Cocoa dsp, and Vanilla. The bottom cocoa strip is edged with an EK Success punch. The lacy border is cut with the Spellbinders Grand Classic Lace Border die. I sponged cocoa ink onto it before removing it from the die. I added some pretty lace sent to me by my friend Angel (Thanks Angel!) and some Martha Stewart butterflies and Hero Arts pearls. Also did some sponging here and there.
