Thank you so very much

Hello again!

I was flooded with memories of my Grandma as I created with this gorgeous new release from Whimsy Stamps called Ivy Chair Rubber Cling Stamp.  Her climbing rose bushes were always gorgeous and smelled heavenly.  I was reminded how much I miss her!

I stamped the image on X-Press It Blending Card with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and then colored with the following Copic markers.

I started with a cream card base that was 5 1/2 inches square.  Added a cream layer 5 3/8 inches square and then the blue dotted layer 5 1/4 inches square.  The middle band of blue/cream paper measures 3 1/2 x 5 1/4, layered with cream card stock that was die cut with the scalloped border from the Kinetic Straight Basics Die Set.  I used the largest oval from the Basic Stitched Ovals Die Set for my image, and then cut around the actual metal die to create a mat to put behind it.

Skinny Girl Cupcakes

Good morning!

Who doesn’t love a yummy cupcake…and who really wants to count the calories…lol!

These scrumptious cupcakes are from Whimsy Stamp’s July new release Calories Schmalories Clear Stamps Set. They look good enough to eat!  How tempting…

These remind me of all the delicious cupcakes I used to make for birthday parties when my girls were little.

I started with a 5×6 card base, adding layers about 1/8 smaller than the last.  The cupcakes were cut out using my Scan N’Cut and popped them up with foam tape to appear as though they were sitting on a bakery shelf.

Billy

Hello again!

How cute is this Billy Goat from All Dressed Up Stamps?  I have to admit…I was stressed out when I was given this goat to color as I don’t normally color animals…lol!  It took me a little while to decide what I was going to do with him.

Once I had a design in mind, it all started to come together.  I brought the image into Microsoft Publisher using the postcard template.  It automatically prints four to a page, which was perfect as I needed multiple copies to make the card work.

Billy

I started with the background, coloring the grass and the sky the way I wanted it.  The second layer was to focus on the fence detail and the pink flowers.  The third layer was just the goat.  I used foam tape between each layer to create a 3D effect.
