Smashing Birthday

I send a lot of birthday cards; at least 10 a month. Sometimes I make multiples of the same design, but most of the time I don’t. This card’s background was made with scraps of tissue paper that were layered on top of a piece of white cardstock, then sprayed with water and let dry. […]

Live In Real Color

Today’s card uses a stamp set from Picket Fence Studios, a stamp company based in Louisiana. They have a wide variety of stamps and dies, as well as some fantastic stencils. This chameleon was just begging for a bunch of color, which I applied with Copic markers.

Jawsome

Here’s a card that can be used for a birthday, or general encouragement, or graduation…. it has all kinds of possibilities! The stamps and dies are from Lawn Fawn. It is colored with Copic markers.

Basketball Birthday

My nephew loves basketball, and is pretty darn good at it. He gets up at 5 am to go to the Y before school just to practice. I drew the background for this card, and used a set from Kindred Stamps. It’s colored with Copic markers and a white Prismacolor pencil.

Fleas Naughty-Dog

How absolutely adorable is this stamp from The Rabbit Hole Designs? I know exactly who I am going to send these cards to! Colored with Copic markers. The metallic paper layer is from The Paper Cut.

Birthday Cards

I needed a couple birthday cards fast, so here are a couple I whipped up. The gorilla is made with Sweet Sentiment stamps. The raccoon stamp is from CC Designs Rubber Stamps. Both are colored with Copic markers.

Rainbow Bridge

Pet sympathy cards are always hard to make. Heck, any sympathy cards are. Unity Stamps has a good selection for difficult times like these. I particularly like this rainbow bridge stamp. I colored it with Copic markers.

Sweet Sentiment Retreat

This past week, I attended an in-person Sweet Sentiment retreat in Idaho. My friend Tonia joined me, and it was the first time I’ve seen her in person in over four years. It was such a treat! The retreat was full of so many fun things, and goodies were overflowing. The light up card was […]

Snowy Swap

For a snowy-themed ATC swap sponsored by Sweet Sentiment, I chose to use their cute moose image. of course I used Copic markers to color the image. The background is the Rustic Trees stencil from Simple Stories, and I used Distress Ink to color it. I used Cosmic Shimmer Fluffy Stuff for the snow. If […]

Holiday Cards

I’m not sure where the time went, but it’s time for Christmas cards again. Here is one with a little Charlie Brown-ish tree, sagging from the weight of one lonely ornament. It’s colored with Copic markers, and layered with patterned paper on a white card base. Simple, but cute.
