MORE POPPIES

 

This is another stamp set from Rubbernecker.com  I like working with two-step stamps.

POPPIES

 

Today's card was made using a two-step design from Rubbernecker.com.  I colored the design with markers and then spritzed lightly with water.

 

Before finishing the card above, I had stamped another piece with the same design and colors.  "Haste makes waste" as they say.  In my "rush" to get it finished I accidentally stamped the sentiment UPSIDE DOWN!!!  I didn't want to throw away the stamped piece so I decided to trim the poppies and the card below is my "save".  I'm not thrilled with the card, but just wanted to save the design.  The sentiment and poppies are both popped with foam dots. 

 

Please take a moment to tell me what you think of the results.  Thank you for stopping by!

MY 1000TH POST!!!!

I couldn't believe it when I saw that yesterday's card was No. 999!!!  So today I have tried to pick out a special card for you to see.

 

 

Well, it isn't one that I made in the last few days especially for my 1000th post, but it is so much different than any other cards I have made.  It was made at a Stampin Up workshop.

 

Thank you so much to those of you have been following my blog.  Your comments are always appreciated! 



SIMPLE BUT ELEGANT

At the last workshop we made this card which was super easy!  My first instinct was to use it for Easter, but by using different colors it would also make a wonderful design to use for Baptism, First Communion, Confirmation, Get Well or Sympathy. 

Thank you so much for stopping by!

GET "WHALE" SOON

 

This was a card we made at the last workshop I attended.  We brayered navy ink onto the inside of one side of the folder before embossing the white card stock.  The whale and "water" are from an SU stamp set.

CUTE PUNCHED LION

I'm sorry it has been a few days since I've posted again.  I keep thinking things will slow down but.............

Recently I saw this card on the PawsN2Stamp blog.  Char is a member of our Yahoo group.  My husband's nephew has a little girl celebrating a birthday this weekend.  My mother-in-law asked me to make a card for her and I thought of that cute little lion immediately. 

I used SU punches and Spellbinders Classic circle dies to make the shapes.  Char used wiggle eyes but I couldn't find mine so I just used small punched circles.  I hope Morgan like her card.

Thank you for stopping by!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, JAMIE AND JASON

June 1, 1996

 

Today I find myself wondering how I can possibly be old enough to have a daughter who is old enough to be celebrating the 17th Anniversary of when she got married.  She and her husband actually celebrated this past Sunday because one of their daughters is on a traveling softball team that is in a tournament today.  Wish I could be there but seasonal allergies are beginning to bug me.

 

This card was made at a Stampin Up workshop in April.
