Sympathy

It’s so hard to create sympathy cards. I prefer not to have too much color on them, lest they seem cheerful. Here are a couple I made recently. The blue uses stamps from Altenew, and an embossing folder from Darice. The green wreath uses an embossing folder from Darice, the wreath die is from Altenew, […]

Flying By to Say Hi

Here is another card that could be used for many things. I used it as a birthday card. The pilot image is from Kindred Stamps, and is colored with Copic markers. It was cut out with my Brother Scan ‘n Cut. The adorable paper is from Carta Bella, which is part of Echo Park Paper.

Rockstar Birthday

The stamp of choice for today’s cards is from Technique Junkies. It’s perfect for slimline cards.

Dragon Adventure

Lawn Fawn makes seriously cute stamps and dies. This pinwheel tower birthday card features an adorable little dragon, along with Echo Park paper. The “Happy Birthday” is from Sweet Sentiment.

Hippo Birdie to You

Here’s another pinwheel tower fun fold card using Lawn Fawn stamps and dies. Once again, the images are colored with Copic markers.

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.
