2/6/2020 - Paper Craft Crew Challenge - Thank You

My dad left today to go back to California, I missed him already! Today's card is using Paper Craft Crew Sketch Challenge. I decided to make a Thank You card using this cute stamp set related to library items for my customers. I used up some of the retired DSP but most of the colors do coordinate with each other. I just love the owl and the glasses!! I hope you like my creation!

2/5/2020 - Cute As a Button - Anything Goes with Valentine's Day

Happy Wednesday! I am very honored to be on the design team for The Paper Fun Challenge. I will be using some digital images as well as my Stampin' Up goodies along with all the challenges. February is my first month with the team and we are using Cute As a Button image along with a twist - Valentien's Day. I used the SU watercolor pencils to color in the image and then I used my Blender Pen to smooth out the color on the cardstock. For the heart balloon, I used the heart image from the designer series paper called - From My Heart DSP along with the coordinating punch!

Please join us at The Paper Fun Challenge this month, we would love to see your creation!

2/4/2020 - Tuesday Morning Sketches - Under my Umbrella

Today's card is using Tuesday Morning Sketches. I decided to use the Under my Umbrella stamp set with the Parisian Blossom DSP to create this elegant card. For the Whisper White piece, I embossed it with the Subtle Embossing Folder. For the umbrella, I used the simple Paper Piecing Technique by stamping the image on DSP and punch it out. The floral images are colored with Watercolor Pencils and Blender Pen. Hope you enjoy this quick card I am sharing today!

2/3/2020 - CASE-ing Tuesday & Sunday Stamps - You're The Joy of My Life

I am sad over that 49ers lost in the Super Bowl but it was definitely a good game! Today's card is using 2 challenges - CASE-ing Tuesday (FB) & Sunday Stamps. I saw one of the DT member used the Puzzle Pieces Dies and I decided to do that was well (Thank You Lisa!) The colors I used are mostly in the DSP so that makes the coordination much easier. I really like how this card turned out and I stayed pretty close to the sketch offer by CASEing Tuesday. I hope you like this quick card I created today!

2/2/2020 - The Paper Players & CASEing the Catty - Amour

Happy Super Bowl Sunday - Today's card is using 2 challenges - CASEing the Catty & The Paper Players Theme Challenge. I kept the card pretty simple and elegant by just using the Parisian Blossom DSP and the dies that goes with the stamp set. I did cut out the Amour 3 times using Basic Black to give it more dimension. I hope you like this quick card I am sharing today! Go NINERS!!!

1/31/2020 - CAS(E) this Sketch & TGIF Challenges - Amour

Happy Friday - Today's card is using 2 challenges - TGIF & CAS(E) this Sketch! These 2 are my favorite challenge site and I am very thrilled to be able to combine them together. I decided to use the current SU Mini Catalog paper and the related suite items for this card. For the heart paper doily, I use my exacto knife to cut out the heart and pop it on dimensional and then the sentiment are also added onto the mini dimensional for more layering. I really like how simple this card turned out, I hope you like it too.

1/29/2020 - Tuesday Morning Sketches - We'll Walrus be Friend

Happy Hump Day! Today's card is using Tuesday Morning Sketches. When I saw this sketch, I wanted to have the images behind the 3 circles in the middle and I though We'll Walrus Be Friends will be a good stamp set to use! It took awhile to figure out what size of circle will fit in the strip of DSP and also need to figure out if the images will show up underneath the circle too. The coloring is using the SU Watercolor Pencils with Blender Pen. I decided to leave the sentiment blank outside and whenever I am ready, then I will stamp it inside the card. I hope you like this card I am sharing today.
