Father's Day

 

Happy Father's Day to all the dad's out there, hope your day is wonderful.  The top card is my husband's and the bottom one is for my dad. I hope they enjoy them as much as I enjoyed making them!

DPDC24

 I thought this precolored frog  from Doodle Pantry was adorable.  I felt a little guilty using a precolored  image at first until I made the card , this card was so quick and easy to make, about 5 minutes start to finish.   We all need a few of those!

Hampton Art Stamp 3 Ways

I got this Hampton Arts set a Michael's, only $2.99 before my coupon!  I knew I would be able to use it numerous ways and for many occasions.  These are the first three cards I made with it. All so different.  No greetings on the outside so they can be birthday, get well, anniversary, thinking of you, even a wedding for the pink one if I were to add some lace! I will get a lot of use out of this stamp! I really like the butterflies on the blue card, those are a die cut from Amuse, first time I used those-they will be used a lot! Have a good week and I hope you have some time for stamping!

C.C. Designs

 I think this stamp from C.C. Designs is called Emma.  My friend accidentally bought  her twice so I was the lucky recipient of the second one! She was fun to color and put together. She has been sitting on my table since February and I hadn't played with her yet. (okay I have several new stamps like that) I need more time.  The background paper was from Michael's and the fence and grass are from Amuse. Emma is colored with Copics. 

Masculine Easel Card

This is our son's Get Well card.  He had his gallbladder out last Friday and thought he would like this card.  The picture was taken on his mantle.  He has done well with his recovery, much less painful than the attacks.

Mothers Day Easel Card

This is my moms Mothers Day card on the top.  Easel cards are fun to make and have that special look to them.  The rose is a Studio112 clear mini stamp colored with Copics YG 03-63-67, R22-27-29.  I added some sponging, embellishments and the fun was finished. I made several similar to my Mom's - not quite as fancy, and the Victorian version below has not been sent off yet.

Happy Tulip Day

I've been getting  a lot of use out of this Hero Arts card.  It's such a good stamp for many occasions and is great embossed or colored with watercolor markers.  Both  of these cards were used at work.
