JDS-Pretty Posies

  Time for a new monthly  release and challenge at Jan's Digi Stamps:

 

  I created this fun fold using Jan's Pretty Posies (one of the

sets on sale this month).  I  colored the image

with Copics and embellished with some brads from my

stash to match the sentiment.  It has already been

mailed to my sister-in-law who is very active

in gardening.

JDS-Santa's Holiday

Mid month for Jan's Digi Stamps:

 

 

Santa's Holiday was so fun to create with.  I ink blended

a beach, an ocean and sky, stenciled clouds on the

sky.   I colored Santa and added glossy accents

to his drink and some glitter to his cap and sleeve trim

before fussy cutting and added him to the beach. I

added a sentiment from this set and now I am wishing

I was in that chair!

 

Join the challenge and see what my teammates have

created at: Jan's Digi Stamp Challenge.  Check out

 I just could not get a good picture today but wanted to share my most

recent Shadow Box swap.  We have done all the seasons so did a

craft one this time.  Awesome squares by everyone:  Patti, Shirley,

Vicki, Sally, Lisa,  Cheryl, Tanya, Beth and Ruth. 

Mine is the MFT teddy bear-sentiment "You Paint My World Happy"

JDS-Christmas 1926

 Time for new releases and a Christmas sale at Jan's Digi Stamps.

Christmas in July-time to start on those Christmas cards, Jan

has a Christmas sale for this month.

 

My card is made with the new set: Christmas 1926.  I printed my wreath

twice, colored one and put it on top of the other for dimension.  I added

red to the berries with a gel pen, and added Glossy Accents to the ribbon.

Shiny papers are DCVW Mercury glass from Michaels. Then I went on to create 

my window card.

Clear out time

 Whenever I tidy my craft room I try to find things to use up to decrease the

clutter as I don't want to part with any stamps, stencils etc.  I found a stack of

black and white floral card stock that I wanted to use up and a set of

envelopes with a scallop edge.  I made 14 cards and used a lot of snippets.

Here are 3 of them:

Snippets for card 1:

 

 

My stash of cards for chemoangels special requests is now

resupplied.  I just need to make some masculine cards.  

Have a wonderful week!

JDS - Rocket Man

Showing another  new monthly  release and challenge at Jan's Digi Stamps:

My card today features:  Rocket Man, a fun Fourth of July card.  I

printed the fireworks on vellum and quickly put gold

embossing powder on top.  The bottom layer was in one of

my snippet piles.  It is patterned paper glued to card stock and

then embossed with a star embossing folder.

Take a look at what my teammates created and join the

 monthly challenge,  anything goes here.
