UNTAMED LOVE



















I am so excited to have been chosen to be featured on Whimsy Inspiration Blog. Thank you so much Denise.

I used two of Crissy Armstrong's images from Untamed Love, the carasol horse and the heart to create this card. I colored both with Copics. The paper I used is from my stash. The pink is a sparkled paper, love it. The metal accents are from Making Memories. I used my EK Success punch and pink sparkle paper for the design on the left side. To finish three clear tear drops.

SHABBY CHIC CARD


I am so excited to be featured in May's addition of Through the Craft Room Door. Suzanne and Marti, thank you so much. Suzanne you have been my instructor and inspiration for a while now.
I created this card with Crissy Armstrong's Untamed Love stamp. This card is colored with Copic markers. I applied a Pebbles chalk over the image to dull the colors slightly. The DPs... well, I just looked through my stash for the "shabby" stuff. I love the bow and Prima flower combo. Faux stitching around the card with my AC Ultimate Gel Pen (white) and Recollections Pearl Stickers and a couple of buttons to finish. TFL.

DAD'S GET WELL CARD








My father-in-law had a operation recently and I made him this card. The Magnolia stamp I purchased from 7 College Kids. I had to have it because it looks so much like my dog Little Lady. My father-in-law loves Lady, so I knew this would cheer him up. I used Copics to color the stamp, trying to get it as similar to Lady as possible. The little paw prints are brads from Michael's. The sentiment I found on Split Coast Stampers web-site. I think it adds the right amount of quirkiness to the whole card. My DP is from Basic Grey's collection Max & Whiskers.

TILDA FOR DIXIE




I made this card for my sister-in-law Dixie. I hope she likes it. I used a Magnolia stamp it's Tilda with her favorite stuffed animal. I colored the image with Copic markers and used Close to My Heart papers. I did a little stiching around the circle and added a flower. The Hello letters were cut with the Cricut

Accordian Pocket File




This was a fun project, it took just a couple of hours. As I was making it, I asked myself what am I going to do with this once it's done... well it holds my Waxy Flax from Close to My Heart. It actually works out quite well. I did add tabs to each pocket and color coded them with my CTMH ink to match the Waxy Flax color. I cut the tabs on my Cricut, using SCAL and a .svg file folder image.
