Day 3 Card 1

This is SAD!  I had no wreath stamp (I'll get one first chance I get) and no Distress markers.  I used Crayola markers and made a wreath with colors I thought were similar.  I added a velvet bow and a gold glittery JOY.  I tried the wood bkgd as well.  This is certainly NOT my best card, but it was fun to try and I will try again.

Day 2 Card 5


I send cards to a young boy and I'm thinking he'll like this moving train.  These are fun to make and the instructions made it very easy to do!  Love this class.

Day 2 Card 4


I know using shaving cream is an older technique, but I just discovered it and LOVE it.  It smells good too.  When I posted one of my first ones, someone suggested I make it a keepsake by making a removable bookmark.   So when Jennifer made her card yesterday I thought it would be a perfect time to try that.  Fun, Fun!

Day 2 Card 3

This was a fast card as I used a picture from pinterest and added it to my snowbanks with a wobble.
I did later add some trees in the bkgd.

Day 2 Card 2


Now that I've done this one, I'm planning on trying one with my own idea.  I have my fingers crossed.

Holiday Card Class Day 2

This was a fun card to do.  It reminded me of my youth and playing with paper dolls.


Now that I've tried one.  I'm going to make another more my own idea.   I have my fingers crossed!

Holiday Class 2014 Pre class

I did this Thanks pop up card for after Christmas.  I used the Silhouette to cut the "thanks" portion.  I used a die to cut the white label and then cut around that for the green mat.  I stamped the top of the card and colored in with markers and colored pencils.

Day 4

I used Stampabilities "Count on Me" and "Tin Can Shower" for this card.  Don't remember whose numbers they are.  I had fun making this card.  When I saw the House Mouse stamp I knew I had to do this one!  Love those guys!

Stretching Your Stamps 2-Day 2



I again used the Hero Arts stamp "Decorative Loops" and embossed with white powder.  I used Stampin' Up inks-Lost Lagoon, Bermuda Bay, and Coastal Cabana.  I got a little carried away with the blending so not much goes into white.
I added a stamped flower with 3D tape and put another, smaller version, inside.

Stretching Your Stamps 2


I found this old stamp I had which had both the positive and negative on the same stamp.  I clear embossed it, then sprayed it with the only spray I have --Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist.  When I wiped it off I was pleasantly surprised.  I really liked it.  I cut them apart and added black mats.  I 3D'd the front one.  Who knew backgrounds could be so much fun!
