Alphabet Day 3 Card 3
I masked off the outside and stamped with Distress Inks. I then used a water brush and filled in the banners. I stamped my name and then saw that I had some pink ink in the wrong place so I added the banner with the sentiment on it.
Alphabet Day 3 Envelope
I need practice lining up my letters better, but this was fun. Are you kidding---another surface to stamp, a stampers heaven!
Alphabet Day 3 Card 1
For this card I stamped the letters and then masked them off. I used a "cheat sheet" to select placement and help with the different colors. I am going to use this card to thank a friend for taking me to the airport tomorrow. Very simple and clean look---my love!

Collage Day 2 Card 3
This card was made by stamping the same collage stamp three times, once on cream, on red, and on white. I used Distress Ink to outline all the cream pieces. I colored the white pieces. Then I mounted it to a green base card.
Collage Day 2 Card 2
For this card I stamped the same collage stamp three times, on blue, cream, and white. I left the blue one as is, I used Distress Inks on the cream, and colored in the rose on the white. I mounted them on a darker cream base and used some Distress Ink around that as well.
Day 2 Collage Card 1
For this card I put some of the newest Distress colors on my work surface and put my waterpaper down on top of it, moving the paper around a bit. Then I dried it and added another layer with the left over ink. I then sprayed it with Perfect Pearls and dried it again. I then used a background stamp with writing on it. I inked the stamp, stamped once on scrap paper and wiped some of the middle off before stamping over my inked paper. Next I black embossed the stamped butterflies. I followed the same procedure for the cut out butterfly and added it to the card with a glue dot. Next time I'd black emboss that butterfly as well.

Background Stamps
I used the dotted background stamp for this card. I added different colors of ink to give it a different look. I haven't made a stamp yet, as I don't have the Distress Reinkers.
I used the zig zag background stamp and stamped two different colored papers. Then I cut them in strips and alternated them on a base paper. I then mounted it to the base card and added the sentiment and flowers. The flowers were also stamped with the background stamp. I finished it off with a gem.
